Advanced mirror handling skills

Advanced mirroring skills are as follows:

Low-angle mirrors are generally transported by bottle lifting with stabilizers. Adjust the viewing angle of the stabilizer, switch to L mode (locking mode), then lower the stabilizer, close to the ground, and move horizontally to shoot.

When moving the mirror horizontally close to the ground, finding a suitable foreground can increase the layering and movement of the picture.

A telephoto lens is usually used at the end of a video. For example, at the end of the video, you will see that the camera screen gradually recedes, leaving only the characters and a big background, giving people a feeling of ending.

When using telephoto lens, you need to adjust the orientation of the lens first, and then switch to L mode (lock mode) on the stabilizer, and then you can start telephoto shooting.

If you pull back directly, you can't see the obstacles behind you, which is more dangerous. It is generally recommended to turn the stabilizer to the left hand position, let the lens point to the main body of the picture behind you, and then look forward while looking at the flip screen. It will be much safer to use a telephoto lens.

Zooming out and looking up are often used in fixed scenes, and the picture will see the whole character and environment with the zoom out and lifting of the lens.

In fact, it is a compound mirror transportation mode, similar to the rocker mirror transportation mode. It can be simply understood that when the lens gradually moves backward, it also moves the pitch axis and lifts the lens upward. Therefore, this kind of mirror operation needs to adjust the stabilizer to F mode (full follow mode).

In the absence of rocker arm, how to shoot the effect of high-altitude rocker arm mirror transport?

We can turn the tripod we usually use into a monopod and install it on the stabilizer. Then, with the help of the height of the monopod, the camera shoots from high to low, so that the picture is like a rocker arm.

Be sure to fix the monopod and stabilizer!

Tail flick mirrors are often used in movies. Simply put, the protagonist in the picture is walking in the direction of the camera, and the photographer is walking in the direction of the protagonist. When the photographer passes by the protagonist, he will flick his tail, aim the camera behind the protagonist and continue to tell the protagonist's next action.
