Am i the only one who this channel has helped so much with creating better content?😍

[CaseyBurnsInvesting]

This is the first place any aspiring content creator should land. Absolute gold. Video quality drives subs.

I typically film at 60fps with a shutter speed of 1/60. I do this because my final video will be at 30fps. I shoot at a higher fps just in case I want to slow something down. It's worked out pretty well for me. All the videos on my page filmed in the last 6 months have been shot this way.

I think this is a nice start for anyone on how to use a video camera

This is the most detailed video I’ve seen on this platform. Y’all never miss

[Kramerdeep]

This is by far the best explanation on aperture, shutter speed and iso I’ve seen so far. Thanks a bunch!

[AdamMiceli]

This is what I needed! Just got my first camera (Panasonic GH5) and this video is helping me A LOT!!!🙏🏻😁

[sparky]

now this is a very useful video. I have the Sony CX900 and have been wondering about the proper settings for a long time. Thanks for going through this and explaining it clearly and SIMPLY

[Tashas_Travels]

This was absolutely amazing, thank you for this video. I just bought a canon m50 and I am experimenting and learning how to use it thanks to this video. I also found your m50 playlist which is so great. I really appreciate your channel as you have truly helped me learn more about my camera in a much more fun way .

This is super helpful!! You guys are amazing teachers. Thanks for providing great content. 🔥🔥🔥

[kageyhomestead]

Great explanation. I was having a lot of issues with ISO and digital noise, definitely looking into an nd filter!

[mattthepope]

Perfect fast tutorial! Everything is crystal clear now in my head. Thanks a lot for explaining it in the manner that everyone can understand these basics. You are a natural born tutor 😅

[RaeVonshae]

Watch me crank out some photos and videos with my new Canon M50!!!! I also bought the lights and the microphone just to make sure I have my stuff together.💥 This channel is my favorite. I am learning so much! ❤

[ManicKazzy]

This guy's good. I saved this video to refer to again.

[ConsistentAsh]

I think this video is essential for new YouTubers. I spent time on Think Media to learn the basics before I started my channel. Great video

[TruthGuitar]

This video was super helpful. I have avoided buying a camera because I know nothing about cameras. I have been on youtube for almost 1 year...and I have been using my Microsoft Go 1080p Camera....I am going to consider buying one now.

[sssweetnesss]

this is actually one of the best videos on youtube. very detailed and helpful. thanks!

[ThreeTwentyTech]

My first few videos had really bad white balance, lighting was poor, and had a lot of other issues. My advice to newer channels? Learn! Learn how to use everything you camera offers and don't make the same mistake I did! Fortunately, my videos look much better now when compared to before but it took a good few months before it got to this level.

Nolan, you’re my favorite Think member lol idk why, you’re just awesome ☺️☺️
