Ok, here is a diagram of my space. This sort of gives an idea what I have to work with. On far right is desk where I work. Then there is a lot of space to the other side of the room, just that it isn't open. There is a dividing wall, a bar. Curious where you would place subject and camera...

Hi, I am planning to shoot some videos of myself playing guitar and I like the sort of dark background achieved in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pGipFrts650 This isn't a GH5 specific question, but just curious how one would go about filming in this way. Does it require a very...

Been reading a lot about latest firmware for GH5 and what it means for USB tethering. ALso have yet to find a single article about using this tethering feature for live video capture (e.g. to use with something like Skype or online webinar platforms). Have read about HDMI to USB devices that...

Hi, Been reading about GH5 and watching some youtube videos about setup, but seems some people find certain settings switches a bit cumbersome, such as VFM vs non VFM shooting. So just curious if anyone has optimized their workflow to account for these sorts of switches among settings. The...

Hi, been reading about stabilization with the GH5. I have a 12-35mm ii lens and I see in the camera that it is set to dual stabilization. Also been reading about the Electronic Stabilization. In the manual it says Electronic Stabilization performs 5 axis stabilization. That confuses me because I...

Hi, the last video I did with my GH4 was home video of my cat and after doing the shots I realized how many of them had blown highlights. Video is here: That camera was stolen while visiting Boston and I just received a GH5 as replacement. My first pressing question is what techniques can I...

Hi, I am living in Montenegro and having been to many home goods stores, I can say that the choices are quite limited. No high CRI LED bulbs. Just 100W equivalent (at the most), 6000K plus. I am starting to think about buying LED strips and making an LED panel light. But before I go crazy, I am...

Hi, I have a clamp light I purchased in the US and am living in Montenegro. I am trying to build a lighting kit. I plan on buying some LED bulbs here and am wondering if I can use them with my US-bought clamp light. I suppose it really comes down to the clamp light insulation and whether 230V...

Hi, I am a guitarist and am producing some lesson videos. I just moved to Montenegro, and living in village on coast, so I don't have tons of options. And until I get my lessons profitable I am on a tight budget. I am trying to figure out how to set up lighting in the room. I attached a diagram...

Hi, I am recording myself giving guitar lessons. I have a ton of audio gear and recording high quality audio is something I am very familiar with, but just not sure how to adapt my current workflow to video. I need to be as efficient as possible since I need to produce my video lessons and...
