Go get that beer! Many more to come ;) I'm just getting started, bought my R5 C and VR lens on it's way shortly, so I'm digesting your channel. I've been working in Unreal Engine and AR, so looking to bring the film side in.

[michaelsiebielec]

As usual another great tutorial! Thanks! As a PC user I just want to say don't forget to give us some love because some of us aren't going to invest in new Apple systems and we need to best optimize equipment we already have.

[kingnt]

Thank you again for this awesome series! A coffee for you or little treat for Kimchi!

[worldscalephotography]

<3 as usual crucial and important information Hugh, and so comprehensive coverage. I can't tell you how much you help me and I'm sure so many others! hope you meet you one day in the US and buy you a real cup of coffee :)

[reality_expansion_vault]

Hugh! You're great. This videos are so on point for users wanting to practically learn how to make fantastic content with this interesting VR180 lens!

[valentinguz]

Thanks man literally no one goes this deep in VR tutorials u r the

[VICGAUTHIER]

After all the searching and searching, this was prob the most helpful video when it came to the VR editing with the dual fish eye lens. We need more video tutorials that can help with 1st timers filming and editing Vr 180 footage. I was using Final Cut at first and when I tell you the frustration was on overload hahaha. Once I used Premier, it was much easier. I am still looking for a Final Cut Video but for the time being, this will have to work.

[stephanefrancq]

Thx ! And…happy new year 2023 for you and your family !

[ShinilPayamal]

Thanks for this awesome video showing details about the Canon EOS VR Utility.

[Maebbie]

finally canon, it took you almost a year but this update processes my footage so quickly. For anyone who is looking for version 1.2, search for "canon sas vr utility" it will direct you to the site that already has it.

[emanuelebonapace]

Thanks, you are the best! Keep it up, a warm greeting from Italy!

[garychung_plane]

Thank you so much! These days, watching and studying your videos is so exciting.

I will work hard to earn money so that I can send it to a restaurant instead of paying for coffee.

[rubenlazaro]

Thanks for your tips Hugh. I work in PC so I have and idea for work with 8K 30fps HEVC footage in windows using a proxies. First use EOS VR plugin in premiere Pro. Second create proxys with a custom preset. But instead of create in low resolution create it Proress HQ at full resolution and use this proxys for render. EDIT: premiere doesn't alowed it. At least at same resolution and frame rate.

[DJ-Puddles]

Another great video Hugh. I use R5C, M1 Max Macbook, Canon VR Utility and Final Cut Pro X to edit. A video on a VR 180 workflow for Final Cut Pro (with Spatial Audio) would be awesome.

[AndresGarcia-sohz]

Thank you Hugh, very helpful information. I can't seem to find your video on Denoising with Neat & Resolve. Did you take it down? Or do you have a better solution these days?

[whoisthis-icake]

Great Plugin definitely!
I'm a newbie in VR filmmaking and create animated films for VR. The scenes are rendered in game engines like Unreal engine and Unity, so is this plugin useful for those stitches too or it only works with shots and videos filmed using Canon lenses? I would be glad if you or anyone reading this could drop an opinion on this..

[RichardTallent]

I know your content is mostly video-oriented, but do you have a recommendation for workflows for using this lens for VR180 *still* photos? I'd rather avoid trying to individually edit photos in Da Vinci Resolve and would rather stick to as much Lightroom and Photoshop as possible. I'm using the EOS RP, so the Canon VR utility won't be an option (I'm also working with Vuze 180 DNGs). Currently using some scripts I made using Sharp JS and FFMpeg for crop and equirectangular conversion, but I'm just starting on setting up a workflow.

[sessionvr]

Without these rich and professional VR tutorials, our newly launched Session180 production would not be so wonderful!! Thank you so much Master Hou!! 🫶🏻

[MikesStormClips]

Hearing just what happens on other cameras like r6 1 and 2 or even rp. Do you get aperture control or no? I take it the two circles fit in 16:9? Or do you need a 3:2 option? Don't have enough funds to get to r5 and especially when at that level it'd be hard not to go to r5c for 60p 8k. But well settling on r6 ii 4k 60p and having an option for 6k 60p later adding an external recorded is making some sense. Instead of settling on unsynced two GoPro choices.

But have still not managed to find out what you get when putting it on those other cameras. I could get by no aperture control I guess but knowing if the circles fully fit in 16/9 would be useful.

[Jaimedaniel]

Hi Hugh! Con you elaborate in premiere export settings? Please I think that part is missing thanks!
