Thanks for the awesome 1st part of the Masterclass. There aren't many CZcamsr's/Creators who are putting even 50% of the work you are doing. Simply amazing. #Respect
Great tutorial! It is very thorough and easy to follow. Thank you so much for this! Now I just have to wait for the lens to arrive. I've pre ordered for almost 4 months I think lol. It's cool that you got to shoot a music video with it already!!!
I purchased the R5 C kit along with the dual fisheye lens over the weekend. I haven't even turned the camera on with the fisheye lens connected. I want to see some how-to videos before getting to frustrated. Nice video but I won't have the money for most of the equipment shown in the video...maybe in the near future!
Absolutely amazing! You are #1 VR filming instructor in the world! Question: If I want to use the Portkeys BM5WR screen, what cables do i need for connection to the camera and what about the power solution. Zendure is out. What are other good options?
Enjoyed the video, as always! The R5 and VR lens combo is way outside my price range, but I am doing some VR180 still photography with an RP, a single Sigma fisheye lens, a Neewer dolly rail, and some models with a LOT of patience and superpowers at staying still between L/R shots!
@@hughhou big reach, but would 2 identical iPhone Pro Max w/Moment fisheye lenses work…my wife and I have the same setup and if I could mount our phones next to each other do you think I could stitch those together…or would it not work because of shallow DoF??
@@hughhou lol very true! But that also requires having two identical cameras and lenses. :) Many years ago, I had two EOS 5D bodies and 50mm lenses, and I did a 3D series. I used two cheap wireless triggers keyed to the same channel. Hardest part was getting the IOD right (had to mount them vertically).
Hi Hugh! Thank you so much for your tutorial! I’m getting a external monitor for my Canon VR. The PORTKEYS BM5WR is quite over my budget after getting all these gear. Does PORTKEYS LH5P works too? Or do you have any recommendation for a more affordable monitor? Thank you Hugh, I hope you read this and be able to give me a hand. You inspired me and I’m watching your video everyday over and over again to learn shooting VR with my R5:)
We really need a VR120 standard so we don't have to mess with keeping tripod legs out of the shot. Its also pretty much a waste seeing so much sky and ground on most shots. A super wide angle is still enough, especially when you use a 16:9 aspect ratio, which lets you keep all the width, but not the sky and ground so much. I have been shooting custom rigs in that format for a while and you can still port it to VR180, you just dont see all the sky and ground, which is better. The big deal is, you get 4 times the pixel density on the stuff you care about. You dont have to go half the FOV since you are shooting 2 dimensions and you can also use all of the 16:9 sensor, so you dont get a massive amount of wasted space in your final shot. Its just all better. Especially when you playback in a headset where you dont have this giant sized image. The hardware can be much lower power also which is great for cheaper headsets. I think soon, all the hardware will catch up, but circular fisheye lenses never are that sharp compared to equi lenses. I am using twin Zcam E1 cams with Rokinon 7.5mm lenses, or even Meike 6.5mm sometimes. With the 6.5mm circular fisheye, you can still get 180 degrees horizontal, it only crops out the top and bottom some, but that is the amount nobody cares about. Like the ceiling tiles or the shoes the photographer is using. With all those pixels used on what matters, and by using a lens that is equi, you get a smaller file that is much higher quality and still a super wide field of view. Its really all about standards. VR180 is great when you need it, but most of the time, i dont think you even want that wide of a view.
Significant step-by-step first tutorial You always rock it professionally with lots of steps for a great introduction to a professional VR180 production level. The question now is that #VR180 is going mainstream. Do you know or have any news of new cameras coming this year, 2022, like the most awaited insta360 EVO 2 or the 3DMod? Happy new year 🎉
Thanks Hugh, I have already received my Dual Fisheye lens - and I just now preordered the R5-C which I hope to receive when it starts shipping in March (according to Adorama) - so while I wait to complete my kit I'll be watching and rewatching your series of how-to videos on shooting and producing VR180 content - and of course now is the time to sign up for your Master Class on VR - Yes! I'm not sure I would feel comfortable investing in this if it were not for you and your guidance - Thanks again!
I would suggest using counterweight behind the mic to balance the rig with camera extending that much forward, this would prevent extended wear on all threads especially those on the expensive leveling tripod attachment. It would also make all more stable. Another way to deal with tripod leg in the frame is to keep two tripod legs straighten and shorten on the edge of the frame while 3rd one longer extending backward with sand bag on it to keep the rig from falling toward subject. I often anchor this 3rd leg to the ground when I don't have to move the rig during shooting. This way the camera can be installed without forward extension which makes things much easier and more balanced. Goodluck This comes from my past astro photography experience where balancing the camera on the tracker was essential and makes shooting and camera panning much easier.
The last thing you showed. Will that allow me to put the camera in front of my face to give that first person pov? I'd also love to see a video showing more details on connecting that 3d mic and the external monitor
For POV - I will suggest the helmet designed for RED Komodo - that is the best POV and you can wear it for action sports. I need to find the link tho I forgot lol.
I am working with Apple right now on the workflow on FCPX. When my Macbook Pro M1Max here, I will deep dive and learn everything and provide in-depth tutorial on it. Need my new Mac first tho lol - still in backorder awww
@@hughhou Thanks Hugh! I'll wait for your Canon/FCPX review before considering a purchase. Tell Apple that many of use think you're the best VR guy out there!
been using the R5c for 180vr while editing on FCPx, short answer is use an external SSD, edit FROM the external to the internal SSD, on my macbook im able to playback in 1:1 speed directly, however if you can't, select "VIEW proxy" and let it cook for a couple hours to create proxys, then edit the proxy, when ready to render, reset VIEW to original to get high-res output. *while my MBP edit fine with the original, I still find switching to proxy helps if you are doing a stack of layers which otherwise will slow you down.
And one more question: Do you separately record the audio with the Zoom H3-VR, manually sync it with the camera mic in premiere and disable the audio track of the camera, or is there another easier technique for the audio recorded by the Zoom H3-VR?
As I normally do it, I'll record audio with my Zoom H1n or H4 separately from the camera and then sync in post. You could do a line out from the Zoom H3-VR into the R5 input if you wanted to save a step of audio syncing in post. Keep in mind though if you do the line out of the H3-VR into the R5 you will only end up with stereo audio, so it'd defeat the purpose of using a 5.1 audio recorder in the first place.
Yeah, IPB or IPB Light works fine for shooting video. And yes, both formats can be shot at 8k onto a fast v60 (8 bit video) or v90 (10 bit hdr video) SD card. CFepress is only required for 8k all-i or raw video.
So according to Canon official (interview is coming up next), they suggest for professionals - shoot ALL-I as it retain a lot of color information that will be dropped in IPB. So if you are shooting for a professional client - use ALL-I and CFExpress card.
Thabks for the great video and chat @hugh , Going back to your video where you used 2, insta360 go 2 cameras, is it possible to do the same using 2 gopro 10s with the max lens mod?
That is coming in the post-session of VR180 which will be releasing in early 2022 - sorry just got a new job coming in delayed my tutorial making. Need to make money first then I can create more free content for the community. It should be out soon. Also VR180 live stream
@@hughhou no worries, totally understand that. I've had some luck with the go pros and Adobe after effects but other than the 60fps everything else seems worse than my evo. Only 155 degree fov and the quality is not very good. So I'll stick to my evo for now :) thanks for all you do and good luck with the new job!
Hey Hugh, thanks for the video. The rail in the video looks a lot longer than the RRS MPR-192 & Mini-Clamps Package listed in the description? Do you know the name of the one you're using in this video? Thanks :)
Great tutorial! What about recording in motion? Would a gimbal like the DJI RSC2 be a solution? Would its level be enough, there where static recording from a tripod is not possible and you really have to follow the subject?
You will need a customized plate for RSC2 as the plate is too long it is in frame. I am working with Ulanzi to develop something that allow shorter mounting point so it will be comparable with DJI gimbal. Right now, Moza gimbal is the only plug-and-play solution.
Hello hugh ! can you tell me more about oveheating fix ? i tried to close the display and have oveheating at 25 m .. ipb recording on internal cf...thanks for your reply ! Best
Hugh, not sure if this is the right place to this, but...I really love 360 3D, you got full immersion, feel like there. In 180 you have more control and posible better image quality, so, Have you tried using both at the same time? Canon for the main view area, for example, escenario, and a pro2 or Titan, even RS1, for the surround and mix in post? I hope try this weekend, but I'd like to know is someone else tried. Thanks.
Oh wow. I first thought “I cannot imagine Canon releasing this without the opportunity to livestream”. Guess I was wrong! Do you think this might change going forward? And: thanks for responding - massively appreciated!
Do you think the K&F TM2515T1 will work as a tripod that stick the camera outward?? I ask because I’m already eyeing that tripod for other uses as well..I was hoping to check another box on the list
Hi Hugh - thank you for your in-depth recommendations for the accessories needed to shoot VR180 with the new Canon system . Could you let us know which model Slypod you recommend for use with the new R5C - I already received my dual fisheye lens. I am now ready to purchase the accessories that I need as you recommend
Hi Hugh, could you advise me which gelative filters to buy? I can't find a solution, I would need an ND64 and ND128. 🙏 Thank you very much for all, you are doing a fantastic job! 👊
Hugh thanks for the video,The Arca rail you have seems different to product description, the one you have seems quiet long where did you get this,i also like the fact that it has lots of mounting holes thanks John k
Thanks for all the great content. I'm wondering if there is any way to view the photos from this lens using a VR headset? I haven't figured out how to upload these photos anywhere that converts them into usable 180º stereoscopic images.
Hi Hugh, you mentioned ND filter but no link to buy. I am going to buy everything on your list this week. I will be shooting outside. Can you share where to buy? I want to make sure I buy the right one.
Hello ! I ask for your advice. I have a lot of memorable 360 photos from different cameras. (maked with SAMSUNG GEAR 360 Insta 360 one x.) All these photos I look at headset SAMSUNG GEAR VR + smartphone SAMSUNG 10 plus. The question is: If I buy OСULUS QUEST 2 headset, will I get a difference in the image quality and its review tire? Thank you for your attention !
hey bro，nice work.The distance between the centers of the two lenses is 60mm, which is really too close. The people photographed are as huge as Avatar.Most people's pupillary distance is 65-68 mm.I have used this lens, and the characters are really huge, especially when they are close to the lens. insta360evo is very suitable, but the picture quality is very poor.I really hope Canon can update a dual fisheye lenses with the center distance of 65-68 mm.
@hugh hou, you give your specs around 9:20 and then throw a punch at the M1 chip. I wanted to ask what your thoughts are on the performance of the M1 Pro chip with the 14+ core GPU on the new Macbook Pros and how they would handle 180 all I data? I'm asking because I ordered one and I've heard really good things! Thanks and great video!
I am still waiting for my M1MAX to be shipped to me :( So no idea. But the new Razer with 3080ti and Nvidia announce that the new PC will be 7X time faster than lastest M1MAX from apple with half the price. So I don't really know. They are also not released till Feb and then prob back order for a bit.
Another great video thanks Hugh for your effort i am eagerlly await part 2. And i have a question please, I have Razer blade studio laptop 2020 edition with Quadro rtx 5000, Is it good enough for editing 8k videos produced by canon vr lens?
Question about using an external monitor to help with the R5 overheating. You specified the PortKeys BM5WR which is rather expensive ($750). Would something like the PortKeys PT5 ($150) work as well?
Can you share your recommended video settings for the Vive Flow? My 5.7k h.265 VR180 files don’t seem to play on Viveport video. What type of files and what app do you use to play videos for your clients using the Vive Flow?
Your Amazon link for the High Precision Horizontal Bubble Leveler is not correct (it links to the Double Quick Release Clamp). Can you provide the correct link for the Bubble Leveler? Thanks!
Nice parts list and introduction to setting up a VR rig! One of the nice things about the Insta360 EVO was its small light size and post software stabilization meant that in a pinch you could handhold it steady for short video clips and probably do just fine, as I have before. With the Canon VR lens that may be more difficult. 😅 Almost 30 seconds to display a frame in Premiere? Yikes! I was planning on rendering out an Apple ProRes 422 video file anyways using the dedicated Canon software. How well does that program function? Have you tested it yet? Although a minor footnote, how does taking photos work? You showed a brief example. Do you just take a jpeg photo and import into Premiere and then save out a corrected jpeg file that we can then edit in Lightroom if we desire?
No the Canon Software only have DPX and MP4 - there is no ProRes (yet - pretty sure they did not get Apple license yet) - so Premiere is the fastest solution to get editing friendly render out. For photo - it can not process RAW (yet again lol... I know, Canon release the camera a lit bit too early) - so only jpg can be render - and it is render out from Canon VR Utility.
Ah ok. Maybe that's why they said early 2022 software release (for proper ProRes support). It could be nice to provide a short 10 second 8k clip for potential buyers of the lens to test out with their current computer, to see what the editing and exporting process is like with Premiere or the EOS VR Utility, which could help them decide it they really want the lens or not.
@@hughhou thanks. i don't know how to begin filming, how to setup the plugin on adobe prremier, how to import, how to edit, how to export and how to view it. it's all very confusing. thanks!
@@seanaguinaga I was actually going to test this out when I get the lens. I will attempt trying to hold it steady and walk straight forward for several seconds to see the overall effect. That is the only way I would recommend doing it (if it works ok enough). Otherwise, a gimbal is highly recommended!
@@seanaguinaga Sure. I could do that. I just gotta wait to receive the lens as it's currently on backorder. I did this same technique with my Insta360 EVO and got good enough results with it, but then the post software stabilization helped some with that, whereas there is no stabilization with the Canon VR lens or software.

So the ND is from official Canon which is not out. But you can just cut gel based on the slot - measure it exactly and then it will work (or cut it)
Hello Master Hugh, I'm looking for a Rail Nodal Slider bigger than 400 mm, where did you get yours and how big is it? Thanks in advance for your help
Has this been released? I haven't seen any press release and don't see any other VR creators posting videos and I ordered mine Back in early Nov.
Yes it is! I am posting it lol. It is holiday I just work tho the holiday without break.
Hello ! I ask for your advice. I have a lot of memorable 360 photos from different cameras. (maked with SAMSUNG GEAR 360 Insta 360 one x.) All these photos I look at headset SAMSUNG GEAR VR + smartphone SAMSUNG 10 plus. The question is: If I buy OСULUS QUEST 2 headset, will I get a difference in the image quality and its review tire? Thank you for your attention !
Yes Quest 2 is higher quality so the quality will be different. But the quality depend on your source photo quality.
Damn, you’re the best!!
Thank you!!
hey bro，nice work.The distance between the centers of the two lenses is 60mm, which is really too close. The people photographed are as huge as Avatar.Most people's pupillary distance is 65-68 mm.I have used this lens, and the characters are really huge, especially when they are close to the lens. insta360evo is very suitable, but the picture quality is very poor.I really hope Canon can update a dual fisheye lenses with the center distance of 65-68 mm.
Agree! This is designed in Jappan - Asian has a smaller IPD in general btw. I know b/c I am 60mm IPD and I am Asian lol
@@hughhou Strange, I'm from China.Many friends here have reported that 60mm is too small, and most of them are over 65 mm.
thank you very much ! You are the best ! lots of great tips ! Going to buy R5 for this lens. Do you recommend wait for the new R5c?
I personally will wait for R5C. I actually do not own the R5 neither - it is a rental. Lol - waiting for R5C
@hugh hou, you give your specs around 9:20 and then throw a punch at the M1 chip. I wanted to ask what your thoughts are on the performance of the M1 Pro chip with the 14+ core GPU on the new Macbook Pros and how they would handle 180 all I data? I'm asking because I ordered one and I've heard really good things! Thanks and great video!
I am still waiting for my M1MAX to be shipped to me :( So no idea. But the new Razer with 3080ti and Nvidia announce that the new PC will be 7X time faster than lastest M1MAX from apple with half the price. So I don't really know. They are also not released till Feb and then prob back order for a bit.
Another great video thanks Hugh for your effort i am eagerlly await part 2. And i have a question please, I have Razer blade studio laptop 2020 edition with Quadro rtx 5000, Is it good enough for editing 8k videos produced by canon vr lens?
That is what I have as well - it works great on 8K on this setup: czcams.com/video/67PCpqvgpXU/video.html
@@hughhou That is great, Thanks dear.
dude so cool!
Glad you think so!
Love my R5!
Me too
Gracias por los subtítulos en Español, ojalá lo puedas integrar en tus vídeos viejitos
How do you know that the hot shoe is fixed 100% level?
It is usually :)
Is it better to shoot 8K-U or 8K-D for processing a VR 180 video later?
I think you can only shoot 8K-U
Question about using an external monitor to help with the R5 overheating. You specified the PortKeys BM5WR which is rather expensive ($750). Would something like the PortKeys PT5 ($150) work as well?
It should be - you are only monitoring the image using the HDMI.
Is it possible to use this lens with sony a1 camera or similar? Are there any solutions for sony shooters?
No solution for SONY shooter. But lens adapter is being developing by 3rd lady
Can you share your recommended video settings for the Vive Flow? My 5.7k h.265 VR180 files don’t seem to play on Viveport video. What type of files and what app do you use to play videos for your clients using the Vive Flow?
Pls make same video but about gimbal. I’m going to buy Canon VR system
Sure!
Your Amazon link for the High Precision Horizontal Bubble Leveler is not correct (it links to the Double Quick Release Clamp). Can you provide the correct link for the Bubble Leveler? Thanks!
Thank you! Go fixing it now.
amzn.to/34nI51j - just FYI.
Nice parts list and introduction to setting up a VR rig!
One of the nice things about the Insta360 EVO was its small light size and post software stabilization meant that in a pinch you could handhold it steady for short video clips and probably do just fine, as I have before. With the Canon VR lens that may be more difficult. 😅
Almost 30 seconds to display a frame in Premiere? Yikes! I was planning on rendering out an Apple ProRes 422 video file anyways using the dedicated Canon software. How well does that program function? Have you tested it yet?
Although a minor footnote, how does taking photos work? You showed a brief example. Do you just take a jpeg photo and import into Premiere and then save out a corrected jpeg file that we can then edit in Lightroom if we desire?
No the Canon Software only have DPX and MP4 - there is no ProRes (yet - pretty sure they did not get Apple license yet) - so Premiere is the fastest solution to get editing friendly render out. For photo - it can not process RAW (yet again lol... I know, Canon release the camera a lit bit too early) - so only jpg can be render - and it is render out from Canon VR Utility.
Ah ok. Maybe that's why they said early 2022 software release (for proper ProRes support).
It could be nice to provide a short 10 second 8k clip for potential buyers of the lens to test out with their current computer, to see what the editing and exporting process is like with Premiere or the EOS VR Utility, which could help them decide it they really want the lens or not.
is it possible to use the lens on an blackmagic pocket cinema 6K?
No it is not possible
one more question, would Portkeys LH5P also work as external monitor ? it costs 400 vs 750?
I have not tested that one yet but any HDMI monitor work. It’s just for preview
does anyone know how to turn on the electronic leveler?
Hit display button
한국에서는 당신과 같은 VR전문 유튜버가 없어요
그래서 당신의 영상이 매우 소중합니다.
한국어 자막을 달아주셔서 감사합니다.
Is that possible to ask in English - I wish I speak Korean lol :)
Does autofocus not work with that lens?
Is the VT recording only when camera is stationary or can it record while camera moving?
It can record while camera is moving.
Joli !
The Rail you use looks a lot longer than 7" long or 24cm
eos r6 可以用这个镜头吗？ 这镜头多少钱？
当然可以，同样都是RF卡口
抱歉，更正一下，只有R5可以
@@SkioDing 昨天看了一下佳能官网 才知道只有r5能用
Only R5 right now. Canon is not telling me R6 will be ever supported. But R3 you can hack you way out. R6 is prob not.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
when is the next video about how to edit coming out?
Very soon!
@@hughhou thanks. i don't know how to begin filming, how to setup the plugin on adobe prremier, how to import, how to edit, how to export and how to view it. it's all very confusing. thanks!
Can you not walk when recording VR Video?
No not in VR180 unless you have the gimbal suit you saw in my other video here: czcams.com/video/6VYrXU7WEX0/video.html
@@hughhou thank you! I was hoping I could walk with it for content I want to make
@@seanaguinaga I was actually going to test this out when I get the lens. I will attempt trying to hold it steady and walk straight forward for several seconds to see the overall effect. That is the only way I would recommend doing it (if it works ok enough). Otherwise, a gimbal is highly recommended!
@@marksoukup1267 please do! That’s how I’d ideally use it. Will you upload a video testing it?
@@seanaguinaga Sure. I could do that. I just gotta wait to receive the lens as it's currently on backorder. I did this same technique with my Insta360 EVO and got good enough results with it, but then the post software stabilization helped some with that, whereas there is no stabilization with the Canon VR lens or software.
Зачем так громко орать в микрофон?

The video is so compressed... ouf.
This one? Are you watching it in 4K 60fps?
DO NOT BUY IT! IT REQUIRES A MONTHLY OR ANNUAL PAID SUBSCRIPTION TO EXTRACT THE VIDEO FILES!!!
voice is so annnoying
Turn on closed captions.
Great tutorial! It is very thorough and easy to follow. Thank you so much for this! Now I just have to wait for the lens to arrive. I've pre ordered for almost 4 months I think lol. It's cool that you got to shoot a music video with it already!!!
Awww thank you!!
Fantastic Video!!
Glad you liked it!
