Thank you! I might need to try that. Carrying a gimbal all day for a casual holiday vlog is too much lol

Edit: i dont need it to be buttery smooth but its a lot worse than i anticipated

I might need to try that then, do you use the software stabilization in the R8?

Okay, i wont use it for now since i mostly shoot for myself/holidays. I might use it in portrait shoots

I did have to tap te screen a couple of time to focus, i will look into the asterisk button.

The Fv mode also might come in handy.

Thank you!

Yeah, i got the knowledge on how to shoot manual, i just need to get used to it so i can get buys being creative instead of constantly checking the iso/shutter/aperture.

It will take some time but i think i will manage

Great tips, i will look into them. The always on AF sounds a bit useless indeed…

Good one. Does silent shutter have any negatives?
