Shoutout Frankie 🙌 Thank you for watching my dude. And same to you man. We genuinely appreciate you. Next time (if we do this format again) we'll make sure the audio is on point and the lighting gets a little more production value lol

@@TNKPhoto invite me and I'll help film with yall and tidy up the audio situation hahaha

Thank you Edgar! We may sprinkle a bit more of this from time to time. It was more fun for me also instead of just going on endlessly on my own lol

Thank you Frank! It was an experiment to see the response. We may do it again and obviously fix the audio and add some lighting. Thank you for watching my friend!

You’re very welcome

Haha I said if this does well we’ll do more and have better production value. This was a test 😁

Thank you so much John! Absolutely, no matter what area it is, we can always be better. Give yourself credit but remain a sponge willing to learn 🙌

Thank you Nathan 🙏 I love the environment we’ve all created 🙌

Thank you for watching Ron! Depending how this does we may do it again and up the production value. This was a one off unless people enjoy the format

I’ll be honest, I’ve never vlogged with it because I have the a9 and it doesn’t have flip screen but it’s so quiet I can’t imagine you’d hear it

Because we spit hot fire

Honestly not at all. Overall I can’t really say any real negatives on it. And I’ve been using it for years now. Definitely one of the best purchases I’ve made. I tried using a neck strap a couple of days ago…yeah not for me anymore lol

Yeah dude, from what JonCris is saying they included it so use them or not they were paying for it anyway. There was a venue in LA that told our couple that they charge a fee beyond that if they removed them so we had a talk with that team too. I'm not fighting anyone but if they're hiring us directly, we need to do our jobs And dude the fact that you recognize that about yourself is a very fair thing. Some people pretend to be a team player when they're really not, and you can see through it. I'd rather someone be direct like that so everyone is on the same page. We're preferred out of a few venues but not in the sense that we're included in the packages. They refer us and the couple chooses to go with us or not based on their preferences. And that I think is a solid preferred vendor list. Thank you for watching my dude

@@TNKPhoto Man these venues with their pesky polices, like not letting me drink on the job. And don't get me wrong, I don't mind getting reffered, I just don't want to be a part of the "you must book our vendors or else!" culture. And you're right A LOT of people in our industry are fake to the max. But I'm the bad guy for not wanting to socialize with them. Speaking of which, I adopted the Korean way of doing things having worked with Koreans while in the fashion industry. Where you come in, do your job as efficiently as possible, no small talk but dead honest when you do speak. Which..... a lot of people take it very personal thus seeing me as not being a team player. So if I find out they're turn off by me from the get go, I make it worse ain't even gonna lie. And I already mentioned how I work best on an empty stomach, finding it awkward AF to sit down with the vendors to break bread. So I just don't do it. And get this, I was actually written up twice while working at Samys Camera for NOT socializing with my co-workers. Long story short, I didn't socialize with the fake ones who rated me out. 🐀

Ok yeah so I had that wrong. I had a couple here in LA tell me their venue charged them if they removed it. Over there it makes sense I guess "it's included". But yeah I had to check them right before we did wedding party photos. The New Yorker came out for a second cause I needed to cook for you guys

Thank you so much! With that little Osmo Pocket 3. I am not a gear head but that thing - I love it! I’ve posted more videos in 2024 alone than I did the previous 6 years of having UA-cam combined. Just because it’s so easy to use and you’re not sacrificing quality. Thank you for watching 🙏

Thank you so much Ron! Yeah man, you can always roll up the sleeves, take your tie off...or in this case take your entire shirt off by the end of it hahaha but this was a special case though cause it was 500% humidity lol

Thank you John! Absolutely, you should definitely treat it like a client. If I'm that close to someone I don't make them sign an agreement or anything like that. In the case of JonCris here, he's one of our photographers as well so he knows how we work and operate. But it's case by case. There are some friends who I still do the whole contract, invoice, deposit, etc as well. Thank you for watching John!

Very good points on all fronts my friend. Thank you for taking the time to watch and share your experiences. I did end up sending it back cause the 200 ticked more boxes but I can see the argument for the smaller form factor

I know! It's wild that it charges that fast and lasts that long with that quality. I still love this little camera. It makes life so much easier. I actually sold my ZVE-10 cause I was no longer using it to film these videos. Thank you for watching!

Of course dude, thank you for watching. Im uploading one right now on "photographing friends and family's weddings", talking about Bali

Thank you! Honestly it's gonna be way more intuitive in my opinion. Can you learn this new one, absolutely, but why learn something that's more difficult when a simple device is already out there. Thank you for watching! And thank you so much for the kind words! I always wanna see what's out there to see if it'll improve what we're already doing but of course I want to use the tools that make the most sense, not just the newest shiniest object. I appreciate you saying I'm a great teacher too. I plan on posting more and more (Just finished filming another one just now). Have an awesome day!

lol which part? Its been a while since I filmed this and my memory is limited hahaha

@@TNKPhoto 5:50-6:01 you jumped all around different clips and subjects lol

@@capturedbyfabian hahaha oh yeah my brain goes on quick tangents a lot

I have but with my shirts that are fitted it doesn’t really work. Honestly it’s not a huge deal I just don’t like the look of it. However I may put a small lav mic and feed that through the shirt to the receiver. One of the videographers I work with does this for wedding ceremonies on the groom

Yeah dude no problem. I don’t have a photo that I took but here’s one I found online storage.tweak.dk/gadgets/dji-pocket-3/DJI%20OSMO%20Pocket%203%20alt%20samlet%20i%20tasken.jpg

And if that’s too snug I found a slightly bigger pouch that holds everthing nicer: amzn.to/3YjumSR

Exactly! There’s a time and place for everything. That’s why I don’t like to 💩 on trends. But the classic methods stay relevant longer. So we pepper some trends but stay true to ourselves 🙌

Thank you so much for watching! Typically we shoot for about an hour to an hour and a half. After that timeframe people start to get tired and I personally believe that you should be able to get a ton of great photos in that timeframe. Unless you have multiple locations that require driving from one to another, you don’t want to have so much time with the sun high in the sky so by scheduling it an hour before sunset you get more of the varied lighting conditions. We typically gel the flash when we want to neutralize the tungsten lighting or if we want that blue look. In the second situation, you put a CTO on your flash and you bring your white balance down to around 3200 Kelvin and you should get the surrounding to be blue and the couple to be color corrected. It sounds complicated but it’s fairly simple the more you practice

@@TNKPhoto Awesome! Thanks for the insights and the great answer :) Now I understood when you want to use a gel on location. And thanks for confirming the timeframe. Thats what i usually take as well, hour before Sunset and a bit of blue hour. Cheers, I am hyped for the next video :)

Hey thank you for watching. Actually, no, I would say that most of the time we don’t use a gel. We only use it when we want to either neutralize the tungsten lighting and make everything look white (bringing your white balance to tungsten/3200k), or if we want to make the surrounding cooler and our subject to be color corrected by hitting them with a flash with a gel and bringing our white balance down to around 3200 Kelvin around dusk. Middle of the day it won’t work cause the ambient light is too bright

@@TNKPhoto Thank you!

Thank you so much for watching John! And thank you for the book! I got it a few days ago and gonna start reading it soon 🙏

@@TNKPhoto You are more than welcome. I think you are going to enjoy all of the photography references in it. 👍

Thank you so much Ron! Hope you’re doing great 🙌

Thank you Eddie! That was one of the ones he sent me that he liked. I loved the spotlight look on it too!

Thank you Joseph! You gotta give em the fire they know but give them some new things too 😁

Thank you! I ended up returning it after this review if I'm honest. If it's not better than the current set up, I didn't see the point of forcing it

Awesome! You're gonna love it! I switched to Sony a couple of years back but this lens was still going strong!

I haven't yet, but thank you for the reminder and thank you for watching!

Thank you so much! I'm uploading another one right now at this same location but with a ton of solid tips. It should be up by this evening. Thank you again for watching!

@@TNKPhoto i am eager to watch it, keep it up. You are a gem on UA-cam and the input you give is worth in Gold.

@@jovis3084 man, that really means a lot! Thank you! New one will be up very shortly!

Thank you so much for watching! It really is a great lens! And I try to be as honest and transparent as I can be. This is definitely a great choice for video 🙌🙌

Don't take anyone's word as gospel my friend. Myself included. Try it out, see how you like it and form your own opinion based on your workflow. For me and for weddings I personally dont think it's the best but there are plenty of people who love the 100 units. Let me know how you like them after a few uses. Keep in mind you can always return on Amazon and get the 200s if you change your mind

I'll check that video out. Thank you! In the end I think the size benefit (vs the ad200) isn't worth it to me considering the price. If the AD100 is 100Ws but it costs the same as an AD200 with half the power, to me, it just makes logical sense to get the more powerful unit since the size is negligible (again, for my/our workflow). I actually tested out the Neewer system today so I'll be posting a video on those flashes soon too to compare. Thank you for watching!

@@TNKPhoto Agree to an extent.. but i think in my camera bag.. i am able to carry 2 AD100's really easily, and it is lighter too. Having said that, any day the AD200 is the best light that Godox made.. cannot get more versatile than the AD200. On the AD200 and the AD100s.. do watch the videos of Markuspix.. very interesting ones. One reason i find the AD100 value for money is because i managed to pick it up for an equivalent of less than 200$ when it was on a sale :). Will look forward to the Neewer video.

😂 😂 I took you guys to target with me. Thank you for watching 🙌

Thank you 🙏

That would be great! Competition is what keeps innovation going. Looking forward to what comes next

Thank you so much! We appreciate you watching!

Thank you so much! I truly appreciate you watching and commenting 🙏 I would have to say, however, I might suggest keeping the 17 to 28. I actually just got that one in the mail from Tamron to test out (taking it on todays wedding) but generally speaking I prefer a nice wide angle just in case I need that width during dance floor photos if someone does something ridiculous close to the camera or for our wide environmental portraits. However I’ll compare weight too cause that’s a big factor that I like about the 20-40. On the 17-28 also, I do have my camera set so I just hit one button and it’ll go into crop mode if I need a little extra reach which works well if you don’t want that distortion. Even on my camera at 24mp it’s cropped to 11ish which is plenty (no one is making posters out of a dance floor photo lol). I wanted to respond to point out some of those things before you jump ship or you see me post the video next week and go “man I listened to Elmer and got the 20-40 and now he’s raving about the 17-28” 😂

@@TNKPhoto Thanks. No worries. I have the 17-28 and know its strengths and weaknesses and often use Crop Mode with it on my a7RV. I rarely need wider than 20, and I have the UWA primes in case that happens, e.g. for venue shots. I just feel like the 20-40 will fit dance floor use better and also make a better walkabout combo with the Tamron 50-300 I plan to get to replace my Tamron 70-300. It's also a better FL range for large group portraits.

Haha thanks dude. And we’re happy to have you 🙌

That’s awesome! You’re gonna love them! And thank you! That was my first major purchase with photography money so the car holds a lot of value to me (I’ll never be able to sell it). I’ve had it for 14/15 years now and the color now is just a wrap, it’s red underneath 😁

The entire short was shot with the osmo pocket 3 in low light mode. The full video is attached as well. Thank you for watching!

Yeah, I mean we have the workaround where I set one of the buttons as exposure preview so I can work around it like that. But I feel like it is very short sighted to have that delay. I understand that it has to boot up because it’s a screen as opposed to how it used to be, but I would rather take an old school screen with no delay over this. I ended up returning it after this review
