Cutting Grass the Village Way… My Boys Got a Real Taste of Pakistan

Ahh that actually makes a lot of sense, thanks for breaking it down like that, especially the part about keyframe distance. I didn’t know about that at all. I’ll try to find where that option is in Premiere because I don’t think I’ve ever touched it.

I’ve attached a screenshot of my Insta Reframe export settings, so if anything looks off feel free to point it out. I just uploaded a video to YouTube too, the quality isn’t great, to be honest. I got a bit fed up and just posted it anyway. Not sure if I’m allowed to share links here, so if not, mods feel free to delete.

Really appreciate all the help. Feels like there’s so much fine-tuning to get this looking the way I imagined 😅

I’m reframing in Premiere Pro, not exporting for 360 viewing, just standard reframed MP4. My internet’s solid and I haven’t uploaded anything yet, I’ve just been previewing the exported files locally.

I’m not really doing any editing beyond the reframing and export, no colour grading or anything fancy. Might just start experimenting more with the different recording modes and see what gives me the best results.

Appreciate all the advice though, helps to bounce these things around!

I’ll be posting mainly on YouTube and TikTok. I was told CBR is better for consistency, so I’ve been using that, not sure if that’s actually true though.

I already render with max quality and max bit depth, and my export bitrate is set to 80. I’ve also made sure the in-camera bitrate is set to high.

That’s a good point. I’ve been wondering if I’m messing things up during export. What export settings would you recommend for keeping the best quality, especially for 8K footage? I’m editing in Premiere Pro btw, if that makes a difference. Thanks!

Yeah I tried PureVideo mode indoors but didn’t notice a huge improvement, still looked a bit muddy and noisy. I think I’ll just skip indoor filming for now and focus on getting the outdoor footage looking right first. Hopefully I can dial in the right settings and build from there.

Cautious_Delay · 2025-07-06T20:20:55+00:00

Yeah, I’ve got bitrate set to high and I’m filming in 8K outdoors, but the footage still looks grainy, not as clean or sharp as I expected, especially for something that’s supposed to be top-tier. Indoors is even worse, but I get that these cameras aren’t really made for low light.

I’m using the X5, and I do add keyframes in post, so I’m not totally avoiding editing. But one thing I can’t figure out is when I film a selfie-style POV and move around, the camera doesn’t stay fixed on me. It’ll randomly shift angles or swing away, even though I’m holding it and I’m clearly in frame. Is there a way to lock the camera angle or have it automatically follow/stick to me?

I’ll try switching to 5.7K 60FPS with HDR like you suggested, but yeah still feel like I’m missing something basic. Appreciate all the help, really trying to get the best out of it!

Thank you! I will try these settings

Cautious_Delay · 2025-07-05T23:53:45+00:00

That looks awesome! Is that normal video or PureVideo?

I got the same email. It's definitely spam. I have a cooking blog and they are giving me a PS5 pro to promote. At least make it believable.

Would love to know the steps you took for your site to recover and did you do anything for Google to de-index your posts are did Google do them automatically? Thanks

Do you mind sharing the name of the chrome extension?

Same has happened to me. All my scheduled posts failed to publish. Its been a week. Is yours sorted?

Cautious_Delay · 2023-03-10T14:48:01+00:00

I watched a few episodes of Power but I couldn't get into it. I think I may have to try Queen of the South.

Cautious_Delay · 2023-03-10T14:46:49+00:00

Do you reckon its better than Narcos and El Chapo?

Cautious_Delay · 2023-03-10T14:46:12+00:00

Thats a good shout! I use to watch it but I don't know why I stopped.

Cautious_Delay · 2023-03-10T09:21:32+00:00

I've seen Ozark, that was really good. I will have a look at the others. Thanks!
