PhotoJoseph’s Photo Moments are a short video series that go live every weekday at 9:30am PDT. The topic can be anything photography related… gear, technique, what I’m shooting today, how I edited a photo… whatever! You can watch live at Facebook.com/PhotoJoseph and catch up on past ones here. If you want a question answered in a future Photo Moment, post it on a recent video or announcement on Facebook!
A viewer asked if you could combine the long exposure mode photography (to get a blurry waterfall, for example) with the LUMIX G9 High Resolution mode. The easy answer is YES… but the details may surprise you.
There's movement all around us, and sometimes you want to capture that motion in your shot. And most of the time, all you're going to have on you is the camera on your phone. Ever wondered how to make motion blur “long exposure” photos on your iPhone? Wonder no more!
ProRes RAW was one of the biggest announcements at NAB. But what does it mean, and what can you do with it? Let's have a look at some actual ProRes RAW footage and see what it can do.
Let's take a look at the project I've been working on in FCP X 10.4.1 that I shot during my trip to Slovenia. And, bonus, gotta love when you accidentally learn something new in the program you're using.
Ever tried adding a wireless microphone to your iPhone 7, iPhone 8, or iPhone X? Turns out more adapters than you realize might be needed…
It used to be simple. You could use a RØDE smartLav+ and connect directly. Or use any wired or wireless mic with a simple TRS to TRRS adapter and be good to go. But now you also need a Lightning to headphone jack adapter. Which actually may not be enough. So maybe you need an Apple Camera Adapter (?!?!) and then a USB audio adapter. Confused yet? It's nuts… but this is what it takes today.
Got a G9? Want longer battery life, a vertical grip, or just a bigger camera to hold on to? Then the BGG9 is your friend! Also let's answer the question, “is the grip trigger less sensitive than the camera trigger?”
Back from NAB! I'm exhausted so this will be brief, but there's something really important I want you to do for me as well. Listen up!
How close can you get with macro extension tubes, and what lenses work best? In some cases, do you even need the macro tubes to get the shot you want? let's explore!
Switched to Micro Four Thirds, and have some old Canon glass laying around? Breathe new life into your old gear with these super inexpensive lens adapters!
PhotoJoseph is back from his trip to Slovenia… and very tired and jet-lagged, but it's been too long since you all had a true LIVE Photo Moment show, so here we are. He shared the story of his trip, an update on the Gnarbox + Lumafusion project, unpacking his camera bag, and more.
What’s better… shoot 4K and slow down, or shoot 1080p slo-mo and scale up? I shoot 4K60p regularly so I can do a 2x slowdown on a 30p timeline and have no added frames. But what if you want even SLOWER footage? What is the best way to get it?
Have you wondered why the GH5S doesn't have a built in stabilizer (IBIS)? Watch this video to understand the reason — and why it's a GOOD THING.
