It keeps in nice and simple for the people who don’t know anything. For more in depth education check further tutorials on the education section of my website or get one of the excellent F-Stop Academy Training videos linked below!

  • Great tutorials!
    I remember you were talking about your 5dmk2 setting once but I couldn’t find where. Did you mention before about the sharpness setting? Bringing it down or something?
    Thanks again for all the usefull stuff!

  • Sorry.. I have to admit that i only read the tutorial and didn’t watch the video before posting my question. So you do mention about sharpness setting. My bad :P

  • We just shot our short using ‘Bloom Settings’ on the 5D. Footage looks fantastic.

  • What is the reasoning for turning the sharpness all the way down? It seems not to be as crisp this way.
    Im shooting with a 60D

  • Thank you so much for teaching me how to properly use my camera. :) So very grateful that you share so much important and helpful information with other filmmakers. You’re awesome.
