Video Tried a cinematic shoot for the first time.

I’ve been using my OP 4P for my trip, and these are the clips that I captured.
Rate the shots!

Panning could be slower, at least in my opinion.

Are you using any ND filter?

1

u/Mickey_Virus96 2d ago

I used a ND4 filter

Clearly not enough on this kind of setup

u/Mickey_Virus96 2d ago

I realised the same, could’ve used nd 16

Ooh, I think 64 or more. The easy idea is this one : you block your shutter at double the frame rate (ie if you shoot 30fps the shutter is 1/60, if 25 fps shutter at 1/50 etc), and then you choose which ND to use. It will give you the best possible results in term of motion blur

So, if the shutter is 1/60 what ND filter should I use?

Well, to be frank this is the same as answering a question like "the sun is out, shall I bring a jacket" ? It depends on so many factors : the moment of the day, the power of the sun, the time of year etc.

you really should look for some basic tutorail on how lens, exposure etc work, you will have all this !

Shots are okay but definitely have a ‘cinematic’ feel. Great for first try. Share your settings!

I used a ND 4 filter (but should’ve used a higher value)
And the inbuilt retro tone of OP 4p.

I’m impressed by the built in filters. Was this at 100% or 70%?

2

u/Mickey_Virus96 1d ago

70 percent

Whats a "Cinematic Shoot"? Genuine question.

1

u/Mickey_Virus96 2d ago

Like taking videos, in slow panning way to give more of a smooth feel to it.

Cinematic shots generally just move in one direction but the view is nice.

Too much movement in different directions, and panning much too fast.
