I agree that the 24fps isn’t part of the 180 rule. I included it in the video as it is also a common misconception that 24fps is the go to frame rate. Frame rate should be chosen based upon the subject matter and artistic intent.

Could you see a difference in the motion blur of the 4 clips in my video?

There are a lot of videos out there that insist you must always expose at twice the frame rate. Cynically, so that they can sell nd filters. A lot of people had commented to me that they can’t get the best exposure because of the 180 rule. So I made the video to show that the 180 rule isn’t...

Exactly.

Thank you. Do you have a YouTube channel? Pop the link in here if you don’t mind. 👍🏻 and I’ll sub and check out your content 👍🏻

Yes. Thank you for mentioning that. If the highlights are something like street lights in a dusk scene, I would be happy to blow the core out to get the rest brighter.

I’m surprised they can’t be bought too. Would be very helpful. I suspect it is expensive to produce a small filter with a gradient with sufficient quality and that why they stopped.

You do need to make sure you expose for the brightest area so if you are shooting a long clip with a lot of exposure changes you Would have to be very careful so probably best to allow a safety buffer. where a shot transitions from a dark to bright area or vice versa and the transition is slow...

I’m pleased it was useful. I try to pick topics people may not be aware of for my tutorials so I’m never sure wether people will like them or not 👍🏻

Thank you and glad you found it useful. 👍🏻🙏

The message I wanted to get across in the video is that you should expose correctly rather than sticking to the 180 rule and ending up under or over exposing. Moving away from the 180 rule by a couple of stops really won’t be noticeable. My understanding of rolling shutter is the jello effect...

I think a lot of people obsess about the 180 rule and as a result end up with over exposed or under exposed footage by trying to stick to it. The message I want to get across. Is expose correctly, even if that means breaking the 180 rule. And as you said, choose a shutter speed that suits your...

I expect a lot of controversy over this video. But the proof is in the pudding, if you dont believe my findings, try it for yourself. Once you embrace this, you will be liberated. No more iffy footage trying to live by a century old "rule". No more unnecessary messing around with filters. You...

Yes, you are right. I mention in the video to make sure you don't hit the right-hand side of the histogram and mention that people will know when they have as a bar will start to shoot up the very right-hand side. I maybe didn't make it clear enough as I didn't point out that it would result in...

This isn't an editing tutorial, it's a camera settings tutorial but I wasn't sure where else to post it. Drones have small sensors compared to DSLRs. As a result, the light hitting the sensor is less, and therefore the noise levels and image quality at base iso isn't as good as a DSLR. There is...
