Video Quality questions - Can good be bad?

Hello and a great day, wherever you are.

I am currently working my way into the YouTube universe, coming from a postproduction background. I started out with a very detailed camera and lens Concept because I wanted to, and without doing much research. It was what I felt like using- the Blackmagic Pocket Cinem 4K seemed appropriate, and I attached prime lenses, some old Hasselblad I had been gifted, and an OM System Pro lens that I felt looked good. Of course I worked with a tripod, and did voiceovers in editing ( I am not a good voice actor or extrovert) - but then I double tested myself and went out with an action cam. DJI Osmo action4, or just zoomed over Images. And I am getting the impression, that video Colors are feeling more familiar and approachable to the viewer and that videos produced with normal gear and live talking are more popular and more likely watched than others.
Would you agree? Do 709 colors and fast and dirty editing make the videos more "authentic" - or am I missing something here?
Thank you for reading and I am curious what you think.

Ich plane allein mit dem Lastenrad auf Tour zu gehen.
Dabei kommen dann auch Solarpanel raus. Insgesamt eine Menge gear,aber vielleicht eben auch ein rotes Tuch für den einen oder anderen. Klar geht es auch um Sicherheit im Straßenverkehr, aber eben auch beim Zelten und im Stand.
Ich frage mich wie ihr euch auf reisen verhaltet um Risiken zu minimieren, und ob ihr zum Beispiel manche Regionen meidet, und woran ihr euer subjektives Sicherheitsgefühl festmacht. Bevor jemand fragt: Mann mittleren Alters.

A 25-minute morning walk through Berlin’s Grunewald, filmed just before the rain.

No talking. No music. Only natural sound.

Berlin is a busy place.

One of the best things about Berlin is that places like the Grunewald exist — large, open, quiet spaces where the city suddenly feels a little less compressed.

Right now, the forest has a beautiful spring atmosphere: fresh green, sandy paths, pine trees, lake light, birds, and that strange feeling of being close to the city but briefly outside of it.

It is not wilderness — and that is part of what makes it interesting. It is a large urban forest, tied closely to Berlin, but still wide enough to make you feel like you have stepped out of the city for a while.

You can disappear into it for an hour and come back feeling like you were gone much longer.

I started a small weekly video series around that idea: a quiet pause in the Grunewald, and also a small ongoing record of what the forest looks and sounds like right now.

Each episode follows the same simple pattern: an arrival, a few shorter views around the place, and then one uninterrupted 5-minute take with natural sound only.

You can use it as a weekly 5-minute pause, or simply as a way to check in with the Grunewald through the seasons — the light, the weather, the paths, the water, the trees, the birds, and the quiet shifts from week to week.

This is episode 14 — a quiet spring pause in the Grunewald.

A quiet spring field — 5 minutes of sun, wind and blossoms

I filmed a quiet spring field in spring light.

No talking, no music — just a still view, wind in the grass, wind and birdsong in the background.

It is meant as a small pause: something to leave on, breathe with, and let the day slow down.

Stay as long as you like.

Hope it brings a little calm.
