As title. What i conclude is i need to capture in raw as this was fine and can capture upto 4k 30fps.

Now

What is the next step after taking raw video.

1: Shift that raw directly to Computer to edit?

2: convert that to any log like aria log and then shift it to computer.

If the second method is more preferable as i can use technical lut to revert back the log file to normal looking one. So what is the best log u guys suggest.

I use premiere pro.

just got myself an app and was tryin to see whats dcg is... sadly photos and video are too dark beyond usefull in bad lightning where stock camera shows good results... what am i missing? if it cant work in bad conditions whats the point of it?

i tried brightness and ev but not much help

i want to get into filmaking for fun aswell as getting a new (secondhand) phone to upgrade from my crippling vivo y33s, budget is 300$, my options so far are the POCO f6, S22 base, Redmi note 14 pro+ and the xiaomi 12 pro, they qll cost roughly the same, exepction is that the poco f6 has 512gb of storage compared to the others 256

the other phones seems to have better sensors while the f6 has the best raw performance specs and cooling, is it worth it to comprimise for the inferior IMX 882 sensor in F6 for its raw specs, is it good enough for low light? or does it not matter as much? i want to get as much value for my money, Thankyou!

Im noob trying to step in video graphy just to know basic

Is a professional camera better than phones?

How do I compare it with a mirrorless which has the same sensor?

How can differentiate that motion cam is better or some kind of professional camera because maybe that camera is better in depth details?

Have a poco F8

Snapdragon, Level 3 Control Api

Stock camera app has shutter/gain priority

No shutter priority in V5, same as V4 ...

Is this normal ? Thought it works on SD

It looks like we got a bunch of new settings in V5? Encoder Complexity is one I can't figure out.

I don't see it in the manual?

Using HEVC Hardware 10 bit, I see a Profile box I don't think we had before, Main 10 I am familiar with from FFMPEG. I see we have "Main 10 HDR10" and HDR10+. Any details on what these are? Is it just a metadata thing for HLG/PQ HDR? If so, does it make sense to have them for Log tone curves?

For Prores, the Profile box is where you pick quality, Proxy, LT, etc.

Hello, if i would use app for video recording, i think about lighter codec, like h265 and Log. Is there will be a lot of difference? Also if it's matter, i would use 50/60 fps in 4k a lot. And i would buy EU version.

I'm photographer/videographer, just want to upgrade my mobilephone to use it as C cam, BS cam. Sometimes use footage alongside my cameras. Nikon user here.

Hey everyone

So I recently started getting into videography and picked up MotionCam on my Vivo X200 Ultra. I've done a bit of research already so I'm not a complete beginner — I know to shoot in 4K 24fps, keep shutter speed at 1/48 for that cinematic motion blur, and keep ISO as low as possible to avoid noise.

I also came across a bunch of YouTube videos where people were saying to shoot in RAW video format to unlock the full potential of the phone camera, which makes sense to me. But that's kind of where my knowledge ends and I start getting lost lol.

What I'm still confused about:

What RAW settings in MotionCam actually work best on the X200 Ultra specifically? Any recommended profiles or tweaks?

How do I handle the RAW footage in post? Do I need to do a lot of heavy color grading or is there a simpler workflow for beginners?

Any good LUTs that work well with RAW footage from this phone?

On the editing side I'm using a MacBook Air M1 — probably going to use DaVinci Resolve since it seems like the go-to for color grading. But I have no idea about render/export settings. What codec and bitrate should I be exporting at to get the best quality without the file size being insane?

Any advice from people who've actually used MotionCam seriously would be really appreciated. Still learning but trying to do it the right way from the start! 🙏
