(High-quality)任何拥有现代智能手机的人都可以观看高质量的视频。您需要一台数码单反相机(DSLR)和价值 10,000 美元的照明设备来捕捉精彩照片并录制高质量音频的日子已经一去不复返了——现在您只需更改 iPhone 上的一些设置即可。
在这个业余电影制作(amateur filmmakers)人和视频播客的时代，这是一个很大的优势，因为这意味着即使是预算紧张的人也可以在没有大量前期投资的情况下开始他们的创意工作。
默认情况下，iPhone X、XS 和 XR 以 1080p 和每秒 30 帧的速度录制。这还不错，但更高的FPS和更好的分辨率确实可以增加新兴播客或电影的吸引力。但是，更改录制设置并不像看起来那么容易。这是你如何做到的。
如何更改 iPhone视频录制设置(Video Recording Settings)
首先(First)要做的事——确保你的 iPhone 上有空间。如果您打算在其上录制任意长度的视频，则需要释放内存。以下是您可以选择的不同设置以及每分钟视频占用多少的粗略细分。
- 720p 高清和 30 FPS 时为 40 MB
- 60 MB，1080p 高清，30 FPS
- 90 MB，1080p 高清，60 FPS
- 135 MB 4K 24 FPS
- 170 MB 4K 30 FPS
- 400 MB 4K 60 FPS
随着分辨率的提高，它会呈指数增长。仅 10(Just ten)分钟 4K/60 FPS的视频就是 4 GB 的内存。了解为什么需要确保拥有存储空间？
要么仔细计划你的拍摄，要么给自己一点回旋余地，让它占用多少内存。完成拍摄后，您可以随时将文件传输到计算机并释放空间备份。
解决后，以下是更改设置的方法。
1. 打开 iPhone 中的设置(Settings)菜单。
2. 向下滚动到相机(Camera )并选择它。
3. 选择“录制视频(Record Video)”并点击它。
4. 您接下来看到的列表将显示您可以使用的所有选项。选择您要使用的那个。
太棒了！您已更改录制速度。它也改变了你的相机显示方式，所以打开相机(Camera)应用程序并试一试。花点时间决定你最喜欢哪一个，然后继续。我们建议初学者使用 1080p 和 60 FPS——它可以(FPS—it)平衡质量而不是荒谬的文件大小。
iPhone相机应用程序(Camera App)的替代品
不是每个人都想使用内置的 iPhone 摄像头。在不同国家/地区播放电影有不同的录制要求，因此如果您在美国拍摄，您可能需要将FPS速率更改为其他值。是的，这可以在后期制作中完成，但为什么不正确拍摄呢？
当遇到这种情况时，请考虑使用FiLMiC Pro(FiLMiC Pro)之类的第三方应用程序。14.99 美元，它不是你的普通相机应用程序。下载页面声称它是“最先进的移动摄像机”。快速浏览一下它的功能列表就会发现这可能是真的：
- 对焦和曝光控制
- 变焦摇杆控制
- 自动白平衡
- (Audio)24、25、30、48、50 和 60 FPS 的音频同步速率
- 60、120、240 FPS 的高速帧速率
- 图像稳定
功能列表不胜枚举，但这些是一些突出的功能。如果您对拍摄视频很认真，那么购买一个比默认视频录制应用程序可以让您对最终产品有更多控制权的录制应用程序是一项不错的投资。
当然，如果您刚刚开始，其中一些术语可能会让您感到困惑或陌生。如果您不想花钱，但希望获得比基本应用程序更多的控制权，请考虑使用 iPhone 上众多免费应用程序之一，例如Horizon Camera。
虽然Horizon Camera缺乏(Horizon Camera)FiLMiC Pro授予的控制级别，但它可以让您设置一些基本设置，例如纵横比、叠加过滤器，甚至使用AirPlay将录制内容镜像到另一台设备上，以便您查看它的外观实时。这是让自己轻松地从 iPhone 录制视频而不会不知所措的好方法。
iPhone 相机配件
如果您的应用程序可以提供很好的控制，并且您仍想提高视频质量，那么下一步就是选择合适的配件。市场上有很多 iPhone 相机配件可供选择，以至于您的手机几乎等同于高价数码单反相机(DSLR)的潜力。
市场上有很多不同的镜头公司，但其中一些最好的是运动镜头(Movement lenses)。这些镜头是由摄影师为摄影师制作的。您也可以找到您梦寐以求的各种镜头。
- 18mm 广角镜头
- 长焦 58mm 镜头
- 微距镜头
- 鱼眼镜头
- 变形镜头
变形镜头通常非常昂贵，但Movement售价 149.99 美元。这些镜头为任何视频提供宽屏、信箱外观。从您按下记录的那一刻起，它就增加了一种专业精神。
镜头通过专门的外壳连接到您的 iPhone。拧上镜头后，它的操作就像数码单反(DSLR)镜头一样。长焦可以让您近距离接触，而无需实际靠近。微距镜头可让您捕捉可能会丢失的小细节。
鱼眼镜头无论你指向什么都会产生令人敬畏的效果。虽然购买所有这些镜头将是一项巨大的投资，但请花时间考虑哪种镜头最能提高您的视频质量。
在许多情况下，它是广角镜头。它允许视频包含更多区域，而边缘的失真最小。如果您需要在一个大空间拍摄——例如一张大沙发，而您和您的朋友谈论最新的漫威电影——那么广角镜头可以帮助您保持近距离对焦，而不会将任何人挡在镜头之外。
不要等到完美的时刻才开始那个创意项目。您已经掌握了所需的一切基础知识——如果您知道如何操作，只需对您的 iPhone 进行一些调整即可拍摄专业级视频。
How to Record Professional Quality Video on Your iPhone
High-quality video is available to anyone with a modern ѕmartphone. Gone are the days when yoυ needed a DSLR and $10,000 worth of lіghting equipment to cаpture great shots and record qualіty audio—now you can do it just by changing a few settings on your iPhone.
This is a great advantage in this age of amateur filmmakers and video podcasts since it means that even a person on a tight budget can start on their creative endeavors without a huge upfront investment.
By default, the iPhone X, XS, and XR record at 1080p and 30 frames per second. This isn’t bad, but a higher FPS and better resolution can really add to the appeal of an up-and-coming podcast or film. Changing the recording settings isn’t as easy as it may seem, though. Here’s how you can do it.
How to Change iPhone Video Recording Settings
First things first—make sure you have space on your iPhone. If you intend to record a video of any length on it, you’ll want to free up memory. Here’s a rough breakdown of the different settings you can choose and how much each minute of video takes up.
- 40 MB at 720p HD and 30 FPS
- 60 MB at 1080p HD at 30 FPS
- 90 MB at 1080p HD at 60 FPS
- 135 MB at 4K with 24 FPS
- 170 MB at 4K with 30 FPS
- 400 MB at 4K with 60 FPS
It scales exponentially as you increase in resolution. Just ten minutes of video at 4K/60 FPS is 4 gigabytes of memory. See why you need to make sure you have the storage space?
Either plan carefully for your shoot, or give yourself a bit of wiggle room with how much memory it will take up. You can always transfer the file to your computer after you’ve finished filming and free the space back up.
With that settled, here’s how to change
your settings.
1. Open the Settings menu in your iPhone.
2. Scroll down to Camera and select it.
3. Select “Record Video” and tap it.
4. The list you see next will show you all
of the options available to you. Choose the one you want to use.
Bravo! You’ve changed your recording speed.
It changes the way your camera displays, too, so open up the Camera app and
give it a whirl. Take the time and decide which one you like best, and then go
with that. We recommend beginners go with 1080p and 60 FPS—it balances quality
without ridiculous file sizes.
Alternatives to the iPhone Camera App
Not everyone wants to use the built-in iPhone camera. There are different recording requirements for broadcasting films in different countries, so if you’re shooting in the US, you might need to change your FPS rate to something else. Yeah, that can be done in post-production, but why not shoot it right, to begin with?
When it comes to a situation like that, consider a third-party app like FiLMiC Pro. At $14.99, it isn’t your run-of-the-mill camera app. The download page claims it is the “most advanced video camera for mobile.” A quick look at its feature list shows that might just be true:
- Focus and exposure controls
- Zoom rocker controls
- Automatic white balance
- Audio sync rates at 24, 25, 30,
48, 50, and 60 FPS
- High speed frame rates of 60,
120, 240 FPS
- Image stabilization
The list of features goes on and on, but these are some of the standout ones. If you’re serious about shooting video, then purchasing a recording app that gives you significantly more control over the final product than the default video recording app is a good investment.
Of course, if you’re just starting out, some of these terms might be confusing or new to you. If you don’t want to spend money but want more control than the basic app gives you, consider one of the numerous free apps on iPhone like Horizon Camera.
While Horizon Camera lacks anywhere near the level of control granted by FiLMiC Pro, it will let you set a few basic settings like the aspect ratio, overlay filters, and even use AirPlay to mirror the recording on another device so you can see how it looks in real-time. It’s a good way to ease yourself into recording video from your iPhone without getting overwhelmed.
iPhone Camera Accessories
If you have an app that gives great control
and you still want to improve the quality of your videos, the next step lies in
picking up the right accessories. There are so many options for iPhone camera
accessories on the market that your phone is nearly the equivalent to a
high-priced DSLR in potential.
There are a lot of different lens companies on the market, but some of the best are the Movement lenses. These lenses are produced by photographers, for photographers. You’ll find every type of lens you can dream of, too.
- Wide 18mm lenses
- Telephoto 58mm lenses
- Macro lenses
- Fish-eye lenses
- Anamorphic lenses
Anamorphic lenses are typically incredibly expensive, but Movement carries them for $149.99. These lenses give any video a widescreen, letterboxed look. It adds an air of professionalism from the moment you press record.
The lenses attach to your iPhone through a specialized case. Once you screw the lens on, it operates just like a DSLR lens would. A telephoto lets you get up close and personal without actually moving closer. A macro lens lets you capture small details that might otherwise be lost.
A fisheye lens gives an awesome effect to whatever you point it at. While purchasing all of these lenses would be a big investment, take the time to consider what kind of lens would increase the quality of your video the most.
In many cases, it’s the wide-angle lens. It
allows the video to encompass more of an area with only minimal distortion on
the edges. If you need to film a large space—such as a large couch while you
and your friends talk about the latest Marvel film—then a wide-angle lens can
help you keep a close focus without cutting anyone out of the shot.
Don’t wait until the perfect moment to start that creative project. You’ve got the basics of everything you need already with you—and you can shoot professional-level video with just a few tweaks to your iPhone if you know how to.
