What settings do you use to film with your camera?

You do not necessarily need a video camera to make beautiful film recordings. You can also make slick films with most cameras. Which settings do you use when filming with your photo camera? All information about manually setting up your camera for making a movie is listed in this article. Who knows, you might turn into the next Tarantino.

How do I set up my shutter speed?

Set up shutter speed

When you record a video, you can adjust the shutter speed to the frame rate which you use. The frame rate is the number of frames per second that it displays. The average for a movie is 24 fps. If you want to display a movement smoothly, choose for a longer shutter speed. For 24 fps, you can use a 1/50 shutter speed. If you want more than just record fast movements, use 60 fps. Us a shutter speed of 1/120 for this.

Which aperture do I use?

Set up aperture

If you work with a fast shutter speed, there is less light on the sensor of your camera. This gives you the chance of underexposed images. You solve this by using a large aperture. A large aperture can be translated into a small aperture value. The disadvantage of a large aperture is that you do not get everything in focus. Do you want more light in the image? Then you use a film lamp for extra lighting.

What do I do with my ISO values?

Set up ISO value

Increasing the ISO value increases the light sensitivity of the sensor of your camera. In practice, this does not work equally well with every camera. With a high ISO, the chance of noise in your image increases. You obviously want to avoid this when making a movie. That's why you opt for a different lighting solution in dark rooms. Cameras with a powerful image processor perform better at higher ISO settings.
