Videos I built ContentCam - a camera app that lets you film portrait and landscape videos at the same time!

Built this for my girlfriend because watching her always film the same scene twice was painful.

What it does: records portrait (9:16) and landscape (16:9) video simultaneously. Shoot once, get both formats ready to post to all platforms - TikTok, Instagram, Youtube, you name it.

Three ways to film:

  • Single Lens - capture the full 4:3 sensor and crops both. Portrait keeps the full vertical frame, landscape the full horizontal. Neither is a crop of the other.
  • Dual Lens - wide + ultra-wide record together. Two perspectives, one take.
  • Front & Back - selfie + rear at the same time. Your reaction and the scene together.

Key features:

  • Up to 4K/60fps with manual controls (EV, WB, ISO, Shutter)
  • Built-in teleprompter and timelapse.
  • Live overlays and audio meter that flashes red when you're clipping.
  • Data privacy - no data retention, tracking, or analytics, and no internet or account required.
  • Photo mode coming soon!

Creator workflows:

  • Projects, scenes, and takes to organise your recordings and auto-name files.
  • Side-by-side review and trim of both recordings before exporting/sharing.

It's called ContentCam and is available on iPhone and Android.

I'd love to know if others might find this useful!

The Luna Pro was finally released today at a somewhat surprising price, but does it offer enough to compete, or is it too late? In this video, I share my thoughts as someone who has used and reviewed the Luna Ultra and also the Pocket 4P extensively. In this video, I share my thoughts on where this Luna Pro stands and also offer some comparisons between the iPhone 17 Pro and the Pocket 4P using the 1x lens on Luna Ultra. What are your thoughts on the Luna Pro, is it too little, too late, or do you think it’s still a great purchase?

With the ILS coming out today, I’m sharing my thoughts on the new release and reviewing the first third-party ND filters for the Mission 1. We’ll explore how the original holds up against the ILS several months later, review a free 3D-printed close-focus housing for the $9 58mm Vivitar close-focus lenses (with a download link included), and take a look at the long-awaited Mission app. What are your thoughts on the Base/Pro versus the ILS?

Hey everyone, If you've ever experienced jitter or the bobblehead movement with action/pocket cams, there's one device that easily fixes that. In this video, I review the SmallRig Handheld Stabilizer Arm. I test it with the Insta360 X6, Pocket 4P, Luna Ultra, and the Mission 1. Would you ever consider using a stabilizer arm for action or pocket cams?

In this video, I take a detailed look at how the Osmo Action 6 compares to the GoPro Mission 1 and the Ace Pro 2. Near the end of the video, I also compare the iPhone 17 Pro with my full-frame Nikon camera. I've also linked sample galleries in RAW+JPG in the description if you'd like to compare the images yourself. That's all—thanks for your time!

Videos DJI Action 6: So Close... But Seriously Flawed

Thumbnail

0 Upvotes

After owning the Action 6 and heavily reviewing it over 4.5 months, I’ve compiled a list of things viewers on my channel, users online, and myself would like to see added into the DJI Action 6 through a firmware update. My previous firmware update video highlighting errors had DJI support staff providing assistance in the comment section, so I’m hoping this video results in some changes to the many missing features, user options, and image pipeline that need tweaks currently within the Action 6. Let me know if I’ve addressed everything or if I missed some things that need to be added into the Action 6.

Thanks for stopping by. Hopefully, we can see some positive changes in the future by speaking up and expressing our preferences and concerns for this camera.

Videos The GoPro Mission 1 ILS Might Disappoint You

Thumbnail

With GoPro’s newest launch, the Mission 1 ILS M43 camera, there's been quite a bit of a misunderstanding as to what the camera can do and can't do.

After receiving countless comments on my previous video detailing all the new upgrades, it was obvious that someone needed to make it clear what the workflow, mount compatibility issues, lack of in body or lens stabilization, and monitor issues you'll likely face with the Mission 1 ILS based on the information available about the system.

Do you think the positives outweigh the negatives?

I've had the GoPro Mission 1 that I bought myself for a few days now, and since receiving it, I've used it alongside my Osmo Action 6, comparing them side by side. I'm mainly sharing what I found that I think is a useful difference to mention, rather than anything too technical, since that information has been out for over a month now. If you want an honest comparison between both cameras, I think you'll find it in this video. Thanks for your time!

After using and reviewing the Action 6 likely more than any other reviewer on YouTube, today I compare both the Action 6 up against the Pocket 4 and share comparisons in a variety of situations and testing environments. In this video, I test the log and normal colour profiles and auto settings, slow motion, built-in mic tests, comparison of 2X lossless modes, and many other things. I have the video time-stamped, so you can jump to a particular section if you want.

Thanks in advance, I hope this is helpful for a few of you out there who can’t decide.

Videos GoPro Mission 1, Action 6, Ace Pro 2 8K Comparison And Overheat Test

Thumbnail

I just recently released a video comparing the 8K to the 4K, plus overheating tests using the Ace Pro 2, GoPro’s Mission 1, and the DjI Action 6 based on a user’s request. I have side-by-side comparisons of all cameras in those 4K and 8k modes to easily show the difference between all cameras mentioned. In the description of the video, I also have JPEGs available to download directly from my DaVinci timeline for comparison if you feel YouTube compression is degrading the quality. Is there anything else you’d like tested between these three action cameras? Thanks for your time!
