Why I don't shoot RAW or 4K with digital cameras for Youtube

I appreciate the message in this video. I will take a grungy looking film with a great storyline over a film made with a an expensive Red camera with top of the line high end features that are not needed to begin with. Your video has ended the film vs digital debate. Both are great formats but we need to focus in the bigger picture. You have earned a new subscriber.

Everyone (regardless of what field they are interested in) should spend 10 minutes and watch this.

Damn this was powerful.

Thank you so much

Wow .. what passion .. you almost pulled a tear out of me and this is coming from a guy raised in a culture of machismo ... message received and approved... well done amigo ... Gracias !!

It's completely true what you say. I am an artist who was highly educated at an art academy. I now make cartoon/pop art type art. What matters is creativity combined with who I am. That's what fans of my work want to see. I have never been as successful as I am now.

"Use it up, wear it out! Make do... or do without!"

2COOL Markus, the craft of understanding the "Craft". The no-nonsense keeps me returning

Inspiring.

Dang Markus well said homie, I felt that

I did a grad shoot for an athlete once and needed a snoot since I only had a wireless Yongnuo speedlight to light him. I needed a snoot to avoid spill and give a sharp outline and ended up going into the school gym, got a flyer and used some gaff tape I always keep on me to create a last min snoot. This speaks to me on so many levels, especially since I feel so inferior to all the new and latest tech, while I am still hanging onto up to 10 year old tech and using it proudly. Thank you.

Great, great, message! Thanks for sharing!

Oh my goodness - this is what I needed to hear - thank you! Wish you had a videography course!

I started in 1978 with B&W (vast DR) and Slides (slim DR) but when the OM-4 with up to 8 averaged spot readings was released, slides became time consuming but trivial. I mostly shot E6 for home basement development but, even with B&W, I kept the ISOs (ASAs) from 64-125 for the IQ. Anyway, these days I shoot raw for the IQ. Why not? It doesn't make up for my lack of creativity but allows me to believe that I do the best that I can do.

Very inspiring. I needed to hear that . Thank you so much .

Markus, I know you will not see this comment, but I wanted to thank you for this video! I started shooting with a Brownie camera as a kid and read everything I could on photography! Thank you for talking to the artist in everybody and telling them to take chances!

tools are tools.... nobody with any sense goes into a cinema in order to pick out what kind of gear was used. thats insane.

I wish Hollywood would readopt this approach to its filmmaking.

Wow inspiring thanks I loved it

Dude, nice Lotus Esprit reference, that was ALWAYS,y dream car growing up in the 80’s and how they were only 4 cylinders!🙏🏼🙏🏼

I watch this like at least once a year when I don't feel motivated

Best insight ever

Ur paintings look better than it photos ! 🎨

Justin ? Bieber ?? Damn

So inspiring

All i have to say it's just... thank you for making this video, Sir.

I love the spirit here! My observation after doing photo-video-graphy for a while is that there is one task with three necessary elements: The one task is to record something people want to look at. In order of importance, the first, most important element is the subject or scene. You need something people want to look at -- for whatever reason. There's no making a silk purse from a sow's ear, no matter what technique or equipment you use. The second element is lighting. The subject needs light of some kind so they can see the thing they want to look at -- and the thing they want to look at just might be the way it's lighted. The third element is the "recorder", which doesn't need to be fancy. There are different recorders for different purposes, and a mid-level recorder can handle most needs as long as elements one and two are in place.

Where were you getting E6 processing that fast?

I never knew you make a film, just looked it up, it looks AWESOME 👍

Tell this to everyone in the music industry

Great video! Technology I think caused filmakers to loose sight of the art of film making. Example: I felt star wars fell victim to this with cgi. The first two were the best, and stood the test of time, even though they are decades old.

👍

thank you finally someone who approve i know what i want to do and somehow i know i will

so i really do not need to upgrade to full frame or even super 35 just proper lighting and better sound and even 8bit record should be enough > somehow i know it will with gh4

你是非常傑出的攝影大師及藝術創作家，Even your personalty is so great🎉
