What is your weapon of choice?
Monopod
Lately I've been filming high school volleyball and basketball games from the top level of the stands. I use a Sony A7siii mounted on a Gitzo carbon monopod. I would love to use my tripod and fluid head but space doesn't allow that.
@@ourtexasfamilyvideos62 that’s a big advantage of the monopod. It doesn’t really take any extra space.
Mostly tripod for me.
Mono with the tripod food loose to maintain a level frame as players run across frame. What affordable head do you like on a mono?
I shoot water polo from the stands with a Tamron 70-200 and it's a beast at 6 pounds. I use a monopod for maneuverability and a non-powered gimbal: Wimberley MH-100 Wimberley MonoGimbal Head. Not as steady as a true 3-axis powered gimbal, but as you stated, a little shake is good.
high hat for basketball is lowkey elite. makes dunks look incredibly high and players look huge like superheroes!
I’m mainly scared that I would break my back 😂
Very informative, thanks
I saw you 2 weeks ago at a game in Montreal Canada to my surprise.
Didn't get to say hi, by time I turned around you were gone to the other side. Great work by the way.
No way! Which game was that at?
It was against the flying cows
I always do cage for basketball and volleyball, monopod for baseball, softball, and soccer. Leaning towards ditching the monopod for a tripod when baseball season comes around
How do you find following the ball with a monopod?
@@BeyondTheGame_E For baseball and softball it took a lot of practice to get it nailed down when tracking pitches. Getting those reps in definitely helped. For soccer it was much more difficult to keep it smooth while following the ball shooting on pretty lumpy and uneven ground. I liked it because of portability but it just isn’t doing it for me in terms of how my footage looks.
I need to get back in the gym before I could use a gimbal again. 💪💪
😂💪🏽
I love my Benro Monopod with the feet and the S4 fluid video head and feet
Which sports do you film with it?
Hi. How do you speed up the video when the ball is moving or being fast? How can I add those sounds effects
to make my video more interesting?
Hey there
If you look in the description of this video you’ll find a link to the sports sound effects pack I sell. Otherwise, to learn how to do speed ramping, just watch this other video I made about it czcams.com/video/tkecgiBoasU/video.html
Very good video, but what stabilization mode do you record in? nothing, standard or active? when you use a cage
I use standard 95% of the time.
@@BeyondTheGame_E Thank you so much for your answer
Do you think a fluid head monopod with feet is sturdy enough to hold a Sony 70-200 or 100-400, or would I need a tripod? Use for auto racing and trying to travel as light as possible on a long track.
I can work but it’s definitely going to be harder than with a tripod.
@@BeyondTheGame_E Thanks
Thank you
You're welcome
So which tripod do you suggest I get for soccer and afl games that is able to do the job without any problems?
Like do I need to go for the Miller Air alloy tripod system?
Or is there a second option that does just a good of a job?
I know companies like Manfrotto and Sachtler make good ones too but I've been using the Miller Air for so long, it's the only one I'm really familiar with.
@@BeyondTheGame_E hmm,
Do you think I can get away with using a Manfrotto Video Monopod MVMXPRO500,
(Basically just purchasing a monopod,)
Or should I just get a tripod?
And when I mean (get away,)
I mean being able to succeed the exact same way as if I was to use a tripod?
(Btw thanks so much for replying!)
I wanna record from far distance,
And being able to zoom in with minimal camera shake,
And so it’s rather I get the monopod that I said,
Or get the Miller Air..
@@ytpaps8112 well 3 legs is always going to be more stable than one. You can potentially get away with it if you don’t plan on panning from left to right too much. But it won’t be nearly as easy.
Handheld since the sideline always crowded and people always jumping in front of the camera 😆
Smart!
Handheld. I have tripods and monopods and I always end up leaving them behind. 😂
Same here! 😂
So which one would be better for soccer games?
If you want to follow the action and you don't have in-camera stabilization, you'll need a tripod. A monopd can do the job but won't be as stable.
Is there anything you suggest for hockey?
All of these options are good for hockey. They’re not sport specific. It’s more about the types of shots that you’re after.
Great videos. Thx. Thumb & sub! Do you ever shoot track & field events or running events?
Unfortunately I don't.
@@BeyondTheGame_E thx. Question. Do you think the Tamron 28-200mm 2.8-5.6 lens would work for that?
@@PLANETWATERMELON Like any budget lens with a similar zoom range, there are pros and cons. You'll be able to film everything with the one lens which is a big plus. But the lens probably won't be particularly sharp and the variable aperture will affect the brightness of your image every time you zoom in and out.
I never leave comments but this video was great!
Thank you ☺️
I use a tripod for football and lacrosse and I’m handheld when I film volleyball.
Sounds like a good game plan.
why is this if you dont mind me asking? new to this hobby
@@sss-ts3of the further away you zoom, the harder is it is to produce stable footage because small shakes look much bigger when you are fully zoomed-in. So using a tripod to film outdoor sports played on a much bigger surface is a good idea.
Your opinions are opposite of many other pros.
I guess that’s good. It proves that I’m giving my true opinions. But I’m curious to know which part you’re talking about specifically? I don’t think anything I said was particularly polarizing.
