It is really nice to have some nice portraits of yourself and it was actually quite enjoyable to make even if the app is pretty terrible haha Interval shooting with Pre AF turned on might work better.

This video is really well-done! I have the X-T20 and yes, the Cam Remote app is hot trash, but it gets the job done especially when I’m not able to utilize a tether. Anyway - I loved the video and it inspired me to shoot some of my own. I will have some new portraits for work soon! Yay!

Hey Joshua, thanks very much man appreciate that glad it inspired you to try it yourself. There is a new version of the remote shutter app which is supposed to be a lot better by the way. I am planning on doing another self portrait video trying it out very soon 👍

Wow, I'm impressed . Thank for for sharing. I think you got a few keepers. I stumbled on your videos while searching about fujifilm Xt5 which I recently bought. I'm glad I watched your video. Food for thought. One of these days I want to have a go at this. Did you edit these phots with any presets? Really like the tone.

Thanks very much, I ended up getting quite a few shots that I really liked. I would highly recommend giving it a try, it does feel a little strange at the beginning but when I got in the zone it was pretty enjoyable. Plus it's always nice having some good portraits of yourself to look back on you know. Also for the edits yes I actually used a preset called Redwood from our preset pack. I'll drop the link to the preset pack here (always feels weird plugging your own stuff in a comment but that's what I used haha) www.macnteens.com/store/p/the-explorer-pack-lightroom-presets-by-mac-n-teens

Great video, thanks for sharing. Can I just ask, how did you set up your focus? Did you use an auto-focus setting and if so can you share the details. If manual, how did you ensure that your eyes were in focus? How does auto-focus work when you are using the remote.
@MacnTeensVisuals

Hey Brian! So when you use the Fujifilm app for a remote shutter It seems like there is only one option for focusing which is a single point focus. So you just tap wherever you want and it focuses. There were a few shots I took where it missed focus slightly because I moved a little which was tricky. The app isn't great to be fair because the quality you seen on your phone screen is pretty bad which makes it hard to tell what exactly was in focus at the time. Portraits are probably the the most difficult thing to use the remote shutter for lol It actually worked for most of the shots though in the end. Hope that helps 👍

This is probably a lot to ask but would you be able to share the settings you used? Things like ISO and aperture and shutter speed? I have a new fujifilm x-t4 that I'm learning to use and getting into photography really for the first time.
@MacnTeensVisuals
2 жыл бұрын
Hey there! It's all good, if you don't as you may never know haha So the settings were pretty similar for most of the shots. I used the lowest aperture for them all which on my lens was F2.8 this gives a nice blurry background and adds some depth to the portraits. I tried to use a shutter speed of around 1/100 if I could but for some I shot at 1/50 or 1/60. Then for the ISO I tried to keep it as low as I could so it ranged from 160 to 400. If you don't have enough light and have to increase the ISO a lot you will lose some sharpness. Hopefully that helps. Feel free to ask if you have anymore questions :) Or join the discord where we talk about all this type of stuff (Link is in the bio of our latest videos) 👍

i try self portrait but my photographs come out of focus, my real problem is always focus in this kind of photography
@MacnTeensVisuals

I honestly thought I would have the same issue using the app but somehow they were almost all in focus haha If you use the app to line up your framing and then switch to interval shooting in camera with Pre AF turned on the camera will auto focus continuously and focus on your eye. I think i will try this method next time for self portraits.

I set autofocus with eye priority and while the counter is working the AF square follows correctly my eyes but at the moment of shooting the photo, the focus moves from the eye and focuses to other places like my noise. Am I doing something wrong?
@MacnTeensVisuals
Жыл бұрын
Yes this is the problem I was having too. It looks like auto focus is working but when you use the app only single point focus actually works. So you have to tap on your phone screen and then it only focuses once. Eye Auto does not work. There is a new Fujifilm app though that I believe fixes this issue. I am actually planning on doing another self portrait video trying it out soon 👍

not finished the video yet as wnted to step in at relevant points. The app is an utter disgrace, not useful at all. Freezees, focusing is garbag. good idea but in reality doesn't work. I also noticed tha when you go into self-timer mode , autofocus continuous is deactivated and single focus is activated in its place which is utterly uselss for self portraits so essentially you don't get the fac/eye detection. I've tried dabbling and cannot work this out - I just end up blurring myself out. Hopefully the rest of the video will shed some light on how to fix this but not holding my breath
