One downside to using cool cameras and lenses, is the extra work you have to consider.
If you’re used to shooting videos with an iPhone, then stabilization is likely not something you worry about.
Without a big complicated gimbal or other physical piece of gear that keeps the camera nice and stable, the footage can be super shaky.
If you run that footage through a stabilizer in post, it’ll need to zoom in a bit to rotate and “fake” the stabilized look.
If you’re like me and hate anything that slows you down, then dialing in a gimbal is the kind of friction you don’t have time for. Stabilization FTW!
" Believe it or not, this is the front of a 25 million home, and I took my camera to shoot a little walkthrough, but you could tell even with the InBody stabilization on this camera, it is nowhere near as smooth and clean as an iPhone video would've been. I love shooting with this camera, but it can get a little bit shaky on the footage.
So luckily there's something called stabilization here in Final Cut Pro. Now, aside from the fact that I sped up the footage to get through this kind of quickly, You can tell that it's actually zoomed in a little bit more, so that final cut Pro can take out all the little bumps You saw, like a weird little warp thing right there.
It's just trying to smooth out the footage so I can walk around through the house and it's not jarring. It's not jumping up and down as I'm panning around showing the pool, and from this angle you can tell this is a giant four story house. It was awesome."
Using stabilization features in post-production software like Final Cut Pro can indeed help smoothen out shaky footage and improve the overall quality of the video. It's a useful tool for achieving professional-looking results, especially when capturing walkthroughs or showcasing properties like the 25 million home you mentioned. By applying stabilization and making necessary adjustments, you can enhance the viewing experience for your audience. Keep up the good work!
