    You know when a city is great when even the most horrible (where most of this video took place) tourist trap parts have some hidden beauty. Looking forward to watching the next parts where you presumably visit some of the better parts of Amsterdam

      I use an iPhone 15 shot on HDR. I then take the footage into Premiere Pro and interpret the footage to rec. 709 and adjust the lumetri scopes to make it appear slightly more cinematic. Things like increasing vibrance, decreasing highlights, etc….
      I produce content in my professional life and honestly, the thought of picking up a professional camera to produce a vlog would prevent me from doing it. Plus, no one bats an eye when I film with my phone. But, bring an actual camera out and everyone’s on high alert. 🚨

    Sorry guys, but what you showed, and how you behaved, is exactly the tourism that Amsterdam can do without! It is clear that you know nothing about my country and my city, and you clearly didn't take the trouble beforehand to delve into the hugely important and world-changing history of Amsterdam. In fact, more than once, you walked straight passed it, for crying out loud! Case in point: you stopped in front of the West Indies House. This is where New Amsterdam, New York was created! The same with the oldest stock exchange in the world... Even the gay area you apparently missed while walking along the kitschy floating flower market. And as for all the shit and rubbish in the streets: this is to a great extend the result of badly behaving and consuming tourists, without any regard for the inhabitants, the proud citizens - burgers - of Amsterdam! We have opened up to the world for centuries, but now it is getting too much!

      Regardless of the trash situation we were very grateful to be in the city and met quite a few lovely people there. We were actually very respectful of our surroundings and cleaned up after ourselves (and others).
      We feel the people of Amsterdam have a lot to be proud of and it’s very clear they take pride in their city.
