Video Description

What Codec to use for your Sony camera? XAVC HS? XAVC S, or XAVC S-I? These are the questions we explore in this video. Each recording format has its pros and cons for it. This video explains the differences between the codecs and why you might choose one or the other. After this video I have decided to change the recording format that I personally use for majority of my social media content mainly to save on space. Storage space is the main key factor to why you won't film in XAVC S-I because it has such large files. ATTENTION: Just make sure you also test your codecs to see if that color difference is with your camera also. I am convinced it is with the codec and not camera specific in the A7IV and FX30. What cards to use for which recording format Video:    • What SD Cards to use for Sony FX30/A7IV?   SUPPORT MY CHANNEL WITH MY LUT: https://geni.us/WmROs All my sound design was using: EPIDEMIC SOUND- https://geni.us/LiAO Podcast Streaming Riverside.fm: https://geni.us/pwSr Thank you for watching my video.
