Because It's Friday

CP 2816:



Please, people: Invest in a tripod. Serviceable ones are cheap enough. (Or use a phone with image stabilization.)

AND:
Pan slowly
Adjust camera direction slowly
Zoom slowly.

Video is hard. EVERYTHING needs to be pre-arranged, planned for, staged. You can point and shoot for stills, rapid-fire and throw away 95% of your shots...and stun people with the perfect shot. Video is stone-cold bitch: miss one shot frame, have one photo-bomb, jerk the tripod, not set up the pan head friction right, the list goes on and on. With stills you can capture life; with video you have to stage it....and get it so right that it seems (ha-ha) natural.
