But in this instance, where we were shooting video clips of the wedding, the approach was slightly different:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.photographybay.com\/2011\/05\/01\/proof-that-multiples-of-iso-160-work-best-on-canon-hdslrs\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">With Canon DSLRs, multiples of 160 ISO give the best noise performance<\/a>. So for the entire video day, we tried to stay at multiples of 160 ISO, especially since we&#8217;d be cranking the ISO quite high during the wedding reception. The low light of the wedding reception necessitates a higher ISO. Adding a video light to it turns the background darker. Raising the ISO allows more of the actual ambient light to register.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Most of the wedding day was shot with the relatively slow aperture zoom, the <a href=\"https:\/\/neilvn.com\/tangents\/recommends\/canon-ef-24-105mm-f4\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Canon 24-105mm f4L IS<\/a>\u00a0(B&amp;H). It&#8217;s a sharp lens and has a nice range, but that slow aperture can be a limitation.\u00a0Since we worked indoors, there wasn&#8217;t much opportunity to change the aperture much from the wide-open f\/4 to keep to the appropriate multiple-of-160-ISO settings.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>We needed to keep the camera at 1\/50th off a second shutter speed through-out.There are many articles online which will describe why 24fps gives a film-like appearance. And for specific reasons, it means\u00a0we need to shoot at 1\/50th shutter speed to maintain the 180 degree shutter rule, if we are shooting video at 24fps. So we kept the shutter speed to 1\/50th shooting the video footage.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Therefore, since we wanted to keep to a 1\/50th shutter speed, and had to shoot at f\/4 or there-abouts, we had to change my ISO to suit, even though my specific ISO setting might not match the ideal.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Photo gear (or equivalents)\u00a0used during this shoot<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/neilvn.com\/tangents\/recommends\/canon-5d-mk-iv-bh\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Canon 5D mk II<\/a>\u00a0(B&amp;H)<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/neilvn.com\/tangents\/recommends\/canon-ef-24-105mm-f4\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Canon 24-105mm f4L IS<\/a>\u00a0(B&amp;H)<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.bhphotovideo.com\/c\/product\/162614-USA\/Canon_2512A002_Wide_Angle_EF_35mm.html\/BI\/2096\/KBID\/2822\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Canon EF 35mm f1.4L<\/a>\u00a0(B&amp;H)<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.bhphotovideo.com\/c\/product\/336188-REG\/Manfrotto_458B_458B_NeoTec_Pro_Photo.html\/BI\/2096\/KBID\/2822\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Manfrotto 458B tripod with NeoTec Pro Photo tripod legs<\/a>\u00a0(B&amp;H)<br \/>\nManfrotto 701HDV fluid head monopod\u00a0(B&amp;H)<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.bhphotovideo.com\/c\/product\/616394-REG\/Litepanels_LP_MICROPRO.html\/BI\/2096\/KBID\/2822\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">LitePanels MicroPro<\/a>\u00a0(B&amp;H)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Alli &amp; Scott &#8211; their wedding day &#8211; fusion clip The latest Fusion clip where we blend video and stills to give a short form overview of the wedding day, is of Alli &amp; Scott \u2013 their wedding day \u2013 Temple Israel of Lawrence, NY\u00a0.
