hello I'm Graham and I do hope everyone's having a great day welcome to
this continuation video in a series I've been producing for new users to the
Panasonic Lumix FZ 300 330 camera. Now I have designed this series so that it's
not going to be too overly technically complex so you're not going to be
intimidated or confused by terms that you probably don't understand so I'm
going to try and pitch it at a level which new users will understand without
being intimidated when we go through the menus I'll try and explain the reason
we're changing the parameters in the menu and why you should do that now the
Panasonic Lumix I've said 300 330 is a fantastic camera for capturing video but
the fact that you've got the 4k UHD video mode means you can capture four
times the definition that you can with standard HD video you can of course use
720p or 1080p with the camera and get superb results but if you do shoot in 4k
even if you are going to scale that down and use it for 1080p or 720p videos
you've got some little advantages and shooting in 4k which I'm going to show
you along the way Now you can use red button recording
with this camera fully automatic mode users press the button and the camera
will choose the right shutter speed aperture and ISO to give you a good
exposure but you've got no control whatsoever over the parameters the
camera chooses so I'm going to encourage it to try and use the creative video
mode and walk you through the steps to get integrated video mode which of the
options to change and why you should change them now this video could be
overly long in length so what I decided to do is to cut it into half so the
first one will be looking at the things you should consider before shooting
video the parameters we should change and why you should change them and in
the next one we'll be looking at getting better audio quality for your videos by
using external microphones or even external audio recorders rather than
using inbuilt microphones of the camera will also look at using external lights
to create some different lighting moods for your video productions
Well the opening clip was recorded in UHD 4k and this is now being recorded in
1080p mp4 format so hopefully you can see the difference in quality between
the two clips it should encourage you to try and use
okay even if you are going to produce a 1080p video which in fact this video is
at the moment is a 1080p timeline with 4k as the originating source okay that's
enough preamble let's get on with the process of understanding what video
recording is about what parameters we should set up in the camera and why
Let's now look how we set up the camera to record video now I am going to
encourage you to use the creative video mode but if you just want to use the red
button to record video then there's still a couple of things that you need
to set up prior to recording video now out of the box the camera isn't set up
for the best video quality that the camera can produce why are you Panasonic
have set these as defaults I really don't know it's been the same with all
their cameras they will set these two conditions so what I'm gonna share to do
if you are going to just use the red button to record video is first of all
change those settings now to access them you need to go into the menu source
record menu setup we need to be in the video record icon so that's the movie
camera icon on the top dialog on the left hand side and by default you'll
find that record format is sets of AVC HD and by default you'll find that it's
set to 50 I know 50 I is what's called an interlaced formats and it's developed
for television turn every other broadcasters to get a higher bandwidth
from a limited frequency response so it really isn't ideal for video and really
should change that to a progressive format so if you don't do nothing else
change from Full HD 50 I to Full HD 50 P and you'll immediately get an
increase in video quality more so in the fact that you'll see more vertical
resolution in your image rather than anything else so you'll see an increase
in sharpness in your video the choice between the recording formats of AVC HD
and mp4 is one of personal preferences and again the mp4 format is one that's
probably preferred these days it's much easier to copy from the camera
your computer it's much easier to edit and upload in that format if you're
recording the AVC HD mode this was a standard developed by Sony and Panasonic
to enable the cameras to record directly to blu-ray discs so it gives you a file
format which can be transferred directly to a DVD format or blu-ray disc so today
there are not many people that are using the AVC HD for burning directly to disk
if you've got a fairly powerful PC then AVC HD gives you a very good quality if
you are a Mac user a couple of years ago you could only record in AVC HD light or
the 720p format as the iMovie wouldn't import the 1920 by 1080 P progressive
format so it's only recently with the changes to the Mac OS and the iMovie
format that we can actually now ingest full HD from AVC HD so if you've got a
powerful Mac you can actually use AVC HD but by choice if you want to edit very
easily choose the mp4 format and under record quality you'll then be choosing
the Full HD 50 P for general HD video recording in
mp4 with a shutter speed at 150 ii iso 200
recording in AVCHD 50p should speed is 150th with an ISO of 200 recording in
mp4 for K 25 P with a shutter speed of 125th of a second at ISO 200
we're talking about 4k video later in the video but for now we're going to
shoot in Full HD 50 P if you're in an NTSC country you'll
find that that will be six deeply you've got a higher frame rate than we do for
our pal based system which is at 50 P so you'll see there full HD 60p where the
power users will see full HD 50 P if you're recording video from the red
button then the options are very similar to what you have for still pictures in
so much that when you go to the photo style you can change from a standard
photo style which gives you slightly enhanced colors if you wanted to make
the colors pop even more you can go for a vivid just as you can with still
pictures but it doesn't give you access to the new semi-professional profiles
which a videographers use which are the cine light D and sending like V so if
you are going to shoot from red button you aren't going to get the full option
over the video photo styles when you've set those then when you come back to the
shooting menu when you press the red button you're down a start recording
video with those parameters that you've set so you can see we've got the movie
icon which says we are now in movie mode we've got the time that the video has
been running the icon which says we are transferring the files to the SD card
over on the right hand side you'll see the red dot flashing which means they
are recording video you've got a confirmation of the recording formats
and recording quality so mp4 full HD 50 P over on the left hand side you can see
the mic levels been indicated by the two bar graphs you are given the indication
of which white balance setting you've got so here I got a manual white balance
and if you've got the remaining time indicator set to video you'll see the
remaining time that's life on the card in this recording mode to
stop recording obviously just press the red button again whatever mode you are
in you will go directly to recording video with a sixteen to nine format
which is the format for HD video and you will start recording in a automatic mode
if you're shooting in stills mode and you go directly to the video mode if I
have save a aspect ratio of four to three set if I haven't got in the custom
setup the record area set to video if it's in the stills mode when you
actually record your video you'll see that we're showing the aspect ratio for
4 to 3 which is right for stills but when I start to record video you'll
notice that the screen changes to 16:9 so it's not showing me the exact framing
that I've got for this video so if I went into recording video you see that
we get a jump to the actual size that the video we recorded so to prevent it
doing that if you want to set that so that it always maintains the correct but
our image change the record area to motion picture so now it will display
what the camera will record when you press the red button so when I press the
red button now you'll notice there's no change to the framing of the picture so
you can get your framing exactly right before you press that record button
let's now look at the most important mode in my opinion and that's going to
be the creative video mode and that gives you a lot more options to get the
video looking just exactly how you like it to be so to set the camera up for
creative video we just turn the top mode dial until we see creative video which
is the movie icon against the white indicator on the flash housing now you
notice on the top left hand side of the screen there is an icon which shows the
video camera with an M by the side which means I've got the camera set up for
fully manual operation now you can change that to be semi-automatic P you
can change it for aperture priority shutter priority or to total manual
control and you can access that through the video menu or you can actually just
touch the icon and it gives you the option now of changing the exposure mode
at the moment source in manual mode but if you wanted to set a pitcher priority
hoof depth of field was your consideration or if you wanted to shoot
where the shutter priority mode to give you a cinematic look then you could set
the shutter speed equal to twice the frame rate and that will give you a
cinematic look or you can up the semi-automatic mode with the program
exposure I'm going to leave it set and I can show you the benefits of Yuting in
the manual mode so we'll leave that sets of em just returned back the other
things I want to take your attention to is the fact we've still got the natural
photo style that we set for stills pictures but now if we go into the menu
you can see that I can change the photo style up to the option now to go to the
video profiles that have been designed for sin use so we've got sin like D
which gives you the most dynamic range it's got a low contrast all you gots in
you like V which gives you a more vibrant profile so if you like your
colors of too rich and saturated choose sin you like V but if you want more
scope to edit the video choose cine like D and again just as in the setup for
stills pictures you can customize this to your heart's content
if you to mess around with those values stoic
and safe again prove the way that the camera responds in different lighting
situations are different subject types so it's worth the artist shooting some
test reels with those parameters changed so you can get an idea of how that
camera responds but for now I'm going to leave the default values there we've got
the record format that we set for red button recalling mp4 and Full HD 50 P so
we'll leave that as it stands so now we're in the manual mode is like using
the manual mode for still photography we can change the exposure by varying any
one of the three components for exposure so it can change the ISO I can change
the shutter speed or we can change the aperture or the cadet to change all
three of them so we got the right exposure that we need for the scene that
we're filming before the most cinematic look and that's derived from the old
celluloid film it's ideal if you can set the shutter speed which is twice the
frame rate so in this case we're shooting at a frame rate of 50 frames
per second so ideally to get a cinematic look to the video we want to change this
to give me a shutter speed of 1/100 of a second obviously if you're shooting at
60 P you want to shoot another one 125th which is the nearest to the twice the
frame rate once you've set the shutter speed you can get an indication of the
exposure by the exposure meter you'll notice that my exposure meter is showing
the fact that I am underexposing by between one stop and one and a third
stops and that's because I've got a black background the camera will
automatically try and drive over the image to a neutral gray and that would
actually over expose my image so I backed that off by giving some negative
sposa compensation by changing the aperture and the ISO obviously you can't
change exposure value compensation in a manual mode you do that by balancing
your aperture and your ISO so if I wanted to change the way that the image
looks if I wanted to make it darker then I could reduce my ire
so or I could cause my habit to down at the moment the shutter speed is selected
but if I press the function one button it allows me to go over and change the
aperture value so if I wanted to make this scene a little bit more darker I
can change them a 3.22 f/4 so if I now changed to a 3.5 f/4 you can see that my
background is going darker and you can see my exposure meter is showing me that
unknown one in two thirds or two stops under expose so it's personal preference
is how you want the image to look ideal it as in still photography you want to
try and keep the ISO as low as possible so that you're not getting noise
introduced into the image so for us quite happy with that an aperture of f28
then I can actually reduce my higher-self to give me slightly less
noise in this video again I've got the same custom white balance and again just
at a white balance set on a piece of white card to ensure that I had near
enough the right white balance for this particular lighting which are just two
desktop lumps with led the 3200 Kelvin lamps in there so to start recording I
can either use the red button or I can use the shutter release button
so pressing the shutter release button starts a video recording straight away
again on screen you can see the remaining time available on that SD card
stop recording obviously either press the red button or press the shutter
release button to stop that recording now at the moment you'll see that I've
got this camera set to manual focus it's so that the image doesn't change spoke
us while we're recording this tutorial but for example if I wanted to change
the focus point I can use as a touchscreen to focus the camera on the
area that I want and you can actually use that for pull focus so I can
actually touch the screen and make the camera focus on whichever part of the
image that I want the camera to be focusing on so can use this for a pull
focus and it will keep the focus that you set
for that particular shot and it will actually work during that to recording
itself if you are following live-action then you can set the autofocus mode to
AF F or AFS and that will depend on which you've got set in the menu but
then it will use the focus target that you've got set for the focus area so
when you press the shutter button or when you're recording if you're half
press the shutter button during recording it will again refocus on the
area that's underneath that's a focus rectangle when you are in the automatic
focus using AFS or AFF when you have to press the short shutter button during
recording you can quickly get the camera to refocus so I did press in halfway
down the camera will refocus to that point again as with still photography
you can set the size of that focus target by using the direct focus area
method so you can select the F area you can change the size to the smallest or
largest area that you need and you can actually change its position on screen
by using the four-way navigation or use your cursor to change the position so
now when you're recording video it will use that focus point to select video so
if I wanted to refocus present its a halfway point and the camera will
refocus right now I've set up a scene here where I've got two static
characters one it closer to the camera than the other I have set my aperture
down to f/2 point a so I've got very shallow depth of field to compensate for
that I've changed my ISO down to 200 which
allows them to use that wider aperture I've got the focus point set to a small
target area and I've got it set to the front character when I start recording
if I wanted to pull the focus to the character in the bike I can take that
focus points I can drag it directly to the character behind and the camera will
now attempt to focus on that particular character again if I were to discourage
and focus just touch him and the this point will change to that
particular character so I can use this to do a focused pull notice I'm using
the stylus but you can actually use your finger as it's a touchscreen and just
change the focus to wherever you want on the image so if you've got a landscape
and you want to change your point of interest to a subject that's in the
foreground you can just change that by just tapping on the screen and bringing
the focus point to the nearest character and the camera will change focus for you
at the moment we've been recording the scene in mp4 Full HD 1920 by 1080 to
resolution I'm going to change the camera over to record in 4k and that
gives me a much higher resolution in fact it's four times the amount of data
that sent a 1080p frame to do that we need to go back into the setup menu and
we change the record format and before record quality up to 4k and you get the
option of the cinematic 24 P or 25 P or 30 P if you've got an NTSC camera so I'm
going to set up for 25 P one of the considerations you have to make when
you're recording 4k video is the memory card you need to be using a u3 rated
card you don't do that the camera will stop recording because it can't transfer
the image from the camera buffer to the SD card fast enough if you're just
shooting 1080p mp4 or AVC HD you can use a u1 rated or + 6 at the very minimum
for your video recording so I've got a key u3 card in the camera so we should
have no problem in recording video so again just start recording by pressing
the record button and though the camera is recording in 4k with the attended
resolution for that particular format as with the 1080p mode you can still use
your pull focus and the camera will oblige by setting focus to the point
that you tap on screen so that gives me a much higher resolution image
well you've noticed in this particular video shot I've got an aperture of f28
my shooters is one one-hundredth to give me the
cinematic look my ISO is 200 now for us to shoot this in daylight is probably
not possible to shoot in sunlight with those exposure conditions to use an
aperture of f28 in sunlight I might have to use an ND filter action on the front
of the camera lens to reduce the amount of light falling on the sensor so that
can be either a variable nd type or you can use a fixed ND type and again it
will depend on the number of f-stops that you need to reduce in order to get
the depth of field that you require maybe the variable nd is the best choice
because you can actually dial in the amount of filtration you want the
downside is that these things tend to give color shifts and if you're using
them at the extremes you'll probably get some image degradation from the fact
that you using two polarizing filters crossing over each other to give you the
variable nd effect so it's probably better if you're serious with your video
to use a fixed end ease either the 2 for 8 or 16 or nd 100 or nd1000 the gain
dependent on the amount of light attenuation you need to get the shot
that you want as we're still photography you can use circle polarizing filters to
remove any reflections from water providing the lightness of the axis of
90 degrees to the camera you'll get some cut from the filter
if you wanted to take night escapes with the camera so you want to do city
skylines or sunset pictures you might find that you can't get the exposure
required even if you use a very high ISO which is not desirable because of the
noise that gonna introduce into the camera so you need to use a longer
shutter speed now in the autofocus mode you can only go down to 125th of a
second and you might need a longer exposure than that so if you switch to
the manual focus mode it means you can actually use a longer shutter speed if I
press the function one button it allows me to change back to the control of the
shutter and now as I turn the dial to the life you can see that I'm increasing
the exposure gone to a thirty of the second a twenty-fifth I can go lower
than that I can go all the way down to one half of a second so if I had to say
one tenth of a second I can now change my ISO down to one hundred and just
check the exposure meter we're just slightly overexposed so I could
compensate by changing my aperture if I wish to f/4 to give me the right
exposure so in very very low light conditions you can use the extended
shutter speed to give you an effect so you can see now I'm recording video with
a shift speed of one tenth of a second uh picture of f/4 and ISO 100 so the ISO
100 is giving us a nice low noise image f4 is going to give me some nice depth
of field providing there's no subject motion the shutter speed of one tenth of
a second isn't going to be a problem but if you've got any motion in your subject
you'll notice that as streaks as the subject moves but everything still works
you've still got control of your focus point so I can change the focus point
and the camera will follow that even though I'm in the manual focus mode
using the touch area focus to make the camera focus on the
area that you wanted to focus on one of the subjects we've not touched at the
moment is the shooting of video either handheld or on some mechanical device to
stabilize the camera ideally you want to be shooting video from a tripod or a
monopod or some way of holding the camera absolutely still the image
quality is quite quickly degraded by any camera movement so if you're using a
long telephoto lens and you're hand holding the camera you may see some
unwanted effects in the video background as the camera tries to resolve motion
that's moving with the camera so ideally try to get the camera mounted on a
tripod turn off image stabilization so if you aren't panning the camera will
respond without trying to lock on to the subject thinking that the camera is
moving from hand shakes or turn off image stabilization if you've got the
camera mounted on a tripod you'll get much better video if you do try and get
the camera onto a tripod or a monopod and that takes out any of the slight
undulations you'll have when your hand holding the camera
everything you do in video should be done slowly so you're not going to have
image artifacts through motion and you're not going to give you a viewer a
seasick feeling because you're moving the camera too quickly so everything
should be done in a very slow fashion temptation when you've got a very long
zoom lens is to keep zooming in and zooming out of your subject nothing is
more disturbing in my opinion than seeing a video which is full of zooms
either to the subject often a subject bike overly using zoom can actually
destroy the quality of your video so it's better to use a zoom to establish
the field of view for that shot and then record the video stop the video then
change your focal length if you have to but don't keep zooming in and zooming
out because you've got the facility on the camera it doesn't create a good
viewing experience by using too much zoom again it's more about telling a
story with video than fancy effects so keep the cam
stable keep your framing simple and then keep your effects to a minimum and your
editing to give you a view are the best possible video experience in the next
video we're going to be looking at using external microphones to enhance the
audio captured by the camera the internal microphones do unable to
capture audio but not very good you can use an external microphone or better
still use an external audio recorder and sync that in your post-production you'll
get much better audio for your video production we'll also be looking at some
use of lights to enhance the mood of the video either augmenting the the scene
with some external lights or in fact fully illuminating the subject using
external lights well that's it for this short video introduction hope you found
that interesting you did learn something new along the way now if you are a new
