Hi Guys

I've been a member for a while many of you might know me from the Facebook Groups where I am more active.

I've recently started a YouTube channel mainly to teach myself video editing......it's getting better ...... early ones are a bit ropey.

As a Pentaxian a lot of the content is pentax Related - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLoHwljF4mmekYKURLIL9KYFm_UwlbJ8p9 - quick link to the Pentax playlist.

Anyway I was just looking for feedback on what you think i should cover to help raise awareness of Pentax etc in future videos.

Thanks for that Ben....appreciate it - the sound quality isn't great on some of the early ones but it's got a lot better.

I've watched the DA-50 one. Great little vid. I'm used to something a little quicker from the vids I watch but I usually speed up to 1.5x speed anyway. One thing I noticed was that the animations came across a little sluggish (personal preference) at the beginning of the video. The main take away for me though is that the beginning of the video is louder than the end. Not absolutely sure why that might be the case.

Also, not that I'm an expert in the matter but do you have a script at all for these types of videos or not? Especially as the focus isn't on your face you could quite comfortably script something which might help minimise speaking errors - again, though, that's endearing for some that it's not overly clinical.

Hope this helps! I'll watch a few more now, enjoyed that DA-50 one... tempted to get one again now I've a K-1!

Thanks Ben, no script just a little bullet points and a saw throat, I've opted to leave the little errors in as I wanted it to feel more like a conversation than a presentation but maybe I'll try the other way too.

Very welcome John. Hope the sore throat has abated! Little errors are fine, that bit is 100% down to personal preference.
Since the video I'd bought a DA50, but now the K-1 has gone off for a quick check-over so I'll have to wait before I use it!
