Monopod advice

Marbury did you shoot these 2 clips using a monopod, if so it certainly shows?

I make a living shooting nature footage - yes it takes a few extra seconds to set up a tripod but if you think a monopod is a suitable alternative to a tripod (which you seem to be suggesting in this thread) then you're really setting off on the wrong track. I don't wish to sound like I'm trying to start an argument, just trying to help.

To be accepted by P5 und Co. and got sales (must !) worth a thousand words from other fellow artists.

Customers will buy whatever available/suitable even your non-steady shots. :D
If I am the curator, your clips above will fail. :)

That horse shot also shows why you should switch your camera over to manual exposure . . . set it up in auto if it suits but turn it to manual before you start recording. Looked at the YT video you linked to and the guys are basically talking about using a monopod at event videos; weddings in their examples. . . .run and gun video events. Totally different to most stock footage shooting situations IMHO.

Having Velcro straps or some sort of clamp in your bag is good when you have a monopod so you can secure it to a fix object like a park bench, iron fence or safety pole. Panning can be done with practice in a monopod. Tilting is too hard. Monopods are also good to shoot over crowds only "if you can rest it to a fix solid object like a wall" as in this case:

Well they were taken hand held in the first week I got the camera. I was out on my bike looking for stuff to practice at. P5, SS both accepted so they can't be that bad. I was (and still am) getting used to it. I see you have picked my 2 worst examples out of 15 clips. I do not have a monopod but if I did I think (with my camera having stabilization) they would be ok. Yes, auto exposure is a pain as you get brightness changing as you film so I will have a go with manual mode.

don't let the curators be any indication of what is bad and what is good^

Manual takes a while to get good at, especially in overcast where exposure changes.. It's challenging to get a good 15sec clip on those types of days.

So how do you ride exposure in manual mode when the light source is changing ?

First you have to state the model of you camera to see if it has full manual mode.

Sony RX10

Google or your Youtube to find the answer!! :D
