Beginner's Guide to Directlog | @MotionCam | Basically a mirrorless camera
RAW Video isn't the best format for every shoot - it's great for well-planned ideas but not everyone can afford the storage cost especially if it's a long day.
That's where DirectLog comes in. You can still enjoy the benefits of RAW and save on storage space!

I've been using the PT-15 for work since I reviewed it on the channel, but today I'm finally replacing it with a better model from Ulanzi - it's not perfect, but it solves the problems I had with the last one. 𝐎𝐩𝐞𝐧 𝐠𝐚𝐭𝐞 refers to recording using your full sensor. For example, you can record in 4000x3000 in Motioncam - which means you get a 4:3 image, slightly wider than the usual 4K (3840x2160)...

Hello, a question how do you do not have fallen frames in motion cam? A few days ago I bought the pro version and always at 1, 1:30 fps start to fall.
I like your videos. I still to see and android content creator talking about the new implements on Android 15. Since they will let 3rd party apps access all camera features, including "eyes free" for stabilization. I hope that this will be a new era for Android,professional videos...add to that the release of Blackmagic app for android.. Cheers!
Pls I’m trying to use it now, but why is my video not making out sound
What phone are you using?
@@AndroMatthew 11 pro pls help
@@AndroMatthew connected it to my phone, but d video is not making out any sound after using it
I assume you mean iphone 11 pro? Have you tried plugging the mic out and then listening to the audio?
@@AndroMatthew yesss, it’s still not playing
Thank you for this tutorial. Could you explain what is "chroma only" in Noise Reduction? In Video Codec preset, I guess I can choose 10 bit if recording 10 bit...
It basically reduces the color noise. You'll notice the noise when you pixel peep or in dark areas.
Wow, the footage looks very good for only 100MBps at 4K. Better than anything Mcpro24fps can produce even with higher data rates.
Mcpro24fps was a total waste of money for me. The quality isn't that much of an upgrade from native app on my Xiaomi 14 Ultra. Crashes all the time, heats up and kills battery like crazy. Can't rely it on for anything. Nevermind 60fps. I can shoot 60fps DNG RAW on Motioncam without frame drops by pixel binning. I can upscale back to UHD in post if I need. The only problem (and it is a MAJOR one) is that Motioncam doesn't have the option to turn on digital stabilization (which fixes the horrible readout speed of all telephone cameras on all smartphones). As a result, I have to use gyroflow to stabilize and fix the rolling shutter/jello effect. If Motioncam allows the option to turn on digital stabilization (like Mcpro24fps does) then there won't be a need to fix the rolling shutter in post.
I set fps at 30, and it dropped automatically to 24 fps in some video records. Does this happen when shutter speed cannot cover the fps?
What phone are you using? Sometimes a phone just doesn't support 30fps. Or it doesn't work well with the chip, my exynos phone do this too. It's also possible, but unlikely, maybe you can check your shutter speed because you might have set it too slow?
What teleprompter app do you use that also includes the bluetooth remote support? What I’ve found, all the apps are way too expensive..
I use elegant teleprompter pro on the google play store. It's paid, but I recall it's not that expensive.
@@AndroMatthew I checked and that one is about $40 per year. I find that pretty expensive still. If it was a one off payment I would be ok with it but otherwise I don’t think it should be more than $10 a year..
That's weird. Maybe they changed to a subscription system because the last time I got it, it was a one time payment. play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ayman.elegantteleprompter.paid
@@AndroMatthew ah ok, that’s a different app than what I found. I’m on iOS and coincidentally there’s another app called elegant teleprompter. So I thought you meant that one. Looks like the one you linked doesn’t exist on iOS :/
Any tips how to solv the reflex?? What to use to cover. (I'm using phone)...
I think you can cover it up with a black cloth. That's what I can think of other than cropping or using the zoom lens
S23 snapdragon 8gen2 for galaxy will work nicely?! Android 15 will add suport for stock stabilization on Camera2. Motioncam will get even better
8gen2 should do well 🫡
Does that mean no more horrible rolling shutter on the telephoto cameras?
бро, да дай же бог тебе здоровья! отличные видео делаешь про motion cam. ЛУЧШИЙ!
Is MotionCam's Direct Log different from using a log profile on mcpro24fps? Im considering buying MotionCam to try out more of the RAW features, but I'm interested this direct log feature
It's very different in a sense that Motioncam log is based on RAW data. Mcpro24fps's log is just forced curves, the final output doesn't give you any more dynamic range.
Ok cool, just bought the app. Excited to try DirectLog!
Awesomee. Let me know when you try it 😁
@@AndroMatthewFake log on top of the auto tone curve. When you lift up the shadows in Mcpro24fps footage, you see very horrible macro blocking.
Increasing the data rates doesn't improve the situation. It only wastes your phones energy and battery, while giving you larger files sizes with no benefit in quality.
Thank you for this video, what is Keyframe Interval?
An oversimplification - but in theory, it affects the accuracy during playback/pause. Meaning, in theory, the lower the better. But it could increase file size. It has very minimal or any at all impact on image quality itself. I suggest putting in lowest if you have storage and planning to edit the video.
@@AndroMatthew Thks
@@AndroMatthewSo should I set to 0 or 1?
The lowest you can go is 1.
Something that no one has done so far has been a dedicated video for colour grading motion cam raw or direct log footage within da Vinci resolve. So i had to find videos that show how to work with cinemadng files from a dlsr. It would be alot easier for beginners to just find a good workflow for motioncam
That's a good idea actually, but I'm mainly using Premiere pro. I'll keep your idea in mind 🤔 maybe someone in the discord group can help
I second that :-)
could you help me, i am a bit stuck. thanks.
Question for directlog, If i am using prores and set to MCRAWLOG should i be converting it to Rec 709 or can i just apply LUTS after importing it to PremPro? People keep saying generally to convert to rec 709 prior to colour grading. Thanks.
Premiere Pro should be converting it to rec709 by default, but it's a good practice to check. If you're planning to export the final video in rec709, then grading in rec709 is the way to go. For example, I graded in rec2020 once and when I exported to rec709 everything looked overexposed.
@@AndroMatthew i might need more guidance its been 8 years since i last used premiere pro. When i import the footage it feels like its in some log format already and not rec 709 converted, everything is desaturated. I apply a LUT and it just looks massively out of place as if its oversaturated.... I may need to reshoot and change settings, i had it default to 75mbps max bit rate. I will try 160mbps as thats the max reported on my S23 Ultra.
I think it is easier just to shoot in RAW and do the transcoding and edit on my computer. Less taxing on the processor of smartphone, but more taxing on the storage.
Thanks for the video. My LG v60 allows me shoot direct log 10 bit 4k 160mbps on Motioncam without drop frames most times
That's so good. It's a real shame LG stopped making phones.
Hope motioncam will add you to their payroll. Your doing them a good service here.
im using Xiaomi Mi 10T Pro SD865 and it has HEVC Hardware 10bit by default it that ok? thanks
That's great actually 😁If you don't find any problems with 10 bit on the apps you edit or upload, then no need to worry about it.
Great job, man! I'm loving these videos. Was the first part of the video filmed with Motioncam? The quality is incredible.
Hey man. All the talking head with the mic is shit with my Sony mirrorless. Since I got motioncam it's been permanently mounted as my 'webcam' 😂 the motioncam footage in this video starts from 3:54.
What lenses do you use?
It's mostly to mount my pro mist and ND filters. But I also use my mobile anamorphic lens.
I don't understand Log videos. What do you do with the vdeos once recorded? Do you grade them? Thank you.
Basically, Log videos are video recorded in a way that keeps as much color data. And you can have a lot of flexibility to color grade them in post. If you're not into grading your footage, you can just record in Rec709 😁 that should give you a nice looking video that's good enough for social media and even editing if you don't plan to color grade.
@@AndroMatthew What I do with my settings now is: direct log video, prores 10 bit, HQ, MCrawlog, I also rad there are MotionCam technical Luts but I guess they are for Raw videos...? Then I edit in Davinci or VN (on my phone) and try to adjust colors if needed. Thank you for your videos.
You're welcome. That sounds like a fine setting. Do you bin your prores videos?
@@AndroMatthew What do you mean by "bin"? (English isn't my first language).
There's an option for binned video in motioncam. Basically, it takes your 4k video and uses the pixel around it to make clearer 1080p image. Use that if you're shooting in prores.
DOS 2 is the best game that was ever made. and it is so much better than baldurs gate that i didnt even enjoy baldurs gate. the rng sucked, the story was meh and i SEVERELY missed the perfect music from divinity..... also divinity had me curious and excited 24/7 while baldurs gate felt mundane and lost in mediocre valley
The world building in DOS2 was soo good. I'm not gonna say BG3 was mundane, plus DOS2 had the same composer as BG3 too. They're different - and BG3 gave me the opportunity to enjoy a DND game... for once 😆 But, I'm really really excited for Larian to come back to DOS with everything they learned while making BG3. Oh man DOS3 GOTY.
@@AndroMatthew i hope they dont make the mistake of rng/baldurs gateify DOS 3. would be THE biggest disappointment. and yeah same composer BUT still no memorable music. i still VIVIDLY remember every single song from dos 2 and can even tell storys to them.
hey could you makke aa new motioncam tutorial , this time specifically targeted at s22 ultra cause a lot of my friends with the s22/21/23 u watch your videos and i use an s22ultra too...
I'm planning a directlog tutorial, anything specific you're looking for?
Definitely gonna be using this video to setup my app! Thank you so much for introducing me to this and for gifting me the app! You're amazing!
Hey man! You're welcome. Hope it'll help you create more stuff too. Totally miss you on UA-cam. Haha
Why is the skin tone purplish?
An oopsie on my side. Probably pushed the hue too far or set my white balance wrong. Honestly didn't notice till you mentioned it 😂 thanks for that
@@AndroMatthew may be it's because you gazed at the monitor for too long without breaks during the grading. It happens to me as well when I focus on one aspect of the color grading so much that other aspects gets ignored or it could be a result of an uncalibrated monitor.
I think it's a combination of all you said. I've also sadly never calibrated my monitor. 😢
4K 30fps raw video works really well on my old Samsung s21. Then in the manage videos tab I'll set render to ProRes LT. Seems to be a good compromise between quality and file size.
im using Xiaomi Mi 10T Pro & everything works fine also the default is 10bit
Can you post your settings for mcpro24fps
Does the motioncam pro give access to the front camera or is it only the back camera?
It really depends on your phone. On my S22Ultra, Motioncam has access to all the cameras.
@@AndroMatthew ah I see thank you
Are you the one in the n0kernel pool?
Sorry man, not sure what that is 😅
@@AndroMatthewi think its a Custom kernel thats all i know about n0kernel or maybe im wrong😅
How far away can you keep it and read comfortably? Not more than arms length or do you have to keep it fairly close?
I think a bit more than arms length it you're on a tablet and enlarge the text. But most of my use cases have it about arms length at most.
Great info on this bro. I've been so hesitant to use this for my long form films but I need to give this a re visit.
Give it a try bro. I really think you'd like it especially if your hardware can shoot in 10-bit hevc (Unlike me with my S22 U 😆)
@@AndroMatthew Hey can the S23 U shoot in 10-bit hevc?
@SeniorScratchEngineer Hey man, yes it can 😁
@@AndroMatthew thanks for the quick reply!
how much storage should i be bringing with me?
It really depends, but generally more is better. Ideally, 1TB Optimally, 512GB → I'm here Minimum 256GB
@@AndroMatthew thanks i got a S23 Ultra 512gb. I thought it would be too small, but maybe with the HEVC i can maximise quality and keep size down.
Mantapp 🎉
Terima kasih chip 🫡
Great video, I hope more and more people know about MotionCam. This is a gamechanger for mobile video.
For real, it's not wrong to call it revolutionary.
There is definitely no OIS or its bugged
I may have accidentally turned off my OIS. My phone was on a gimbal before and I might've forgot to turn it back on
I'm so happy you recorded such tutorial. I'll definitely watch. Please spread the word MotionCam is amazing ❤️
Thank you 🙏 hopefully it'll help more people get into Motioncam more easily
Super helpful video!! Just some additional notes; If you also plan to edit on phone, you should also set the gamma to BT.709 so that the video you record comes out the same way on social media, because details in MCRAW LOG can be lost when posted to social media
Thanks for adding that on 😁
I didn't understand this, would you mind clarifying? Are you referring to the transfer function in the app and the case where I import the video directly into the social media app (e.g. Instagram)? Edit: I'm using DirectLog so the menu is different but I think the issue is the same.
@@pedromartinezlopez Yes, the Transfer Function is the one that you change from MCRAW LOG to BT.709
Modder fixed the game and I finished it, this had a happy ending.
I've been learning how to use MCpro24fps for the past 6 months or so after watching videos (including yours) on it and MotionCam. At the time, MotionCam was too buggy and crashed all the time. Now, I may have to buy it and learn how to use it. Checking out the demo version, and the sensor exposure warning overlay and ProRes recording is very cool. Do you think you will make a new tutorial video on how to use this updated MotionCam?
Hey man, I can consider making a quick starter tutorial. The devs added a demo version similar to the pro but limited to only 5 seconds - try that out. What phone are you using?
@@AndroMatthew Cool. Yeah, just downloaded the demo. Using a Galaxy S20 FE 5G
Looks like a supported phone. Is the demo working well for you?
@@AndroMatthew I was able to record with RAW or Direct Log, but the DL videos are unplayable on my phone and freeze frames on my PC. The RAW video is playing in the "Manage Videos" section on the app, but I'm having trouble rendering it as a ProRes HQ file
From what I've read, the snapdragon 865 is working quite well with the app. What settings are you recording DL with? I've heard it even works ok with 10bit hevc.
Where did you go, bud? Hahaha
Nowhere man. Just needed to clear off my old footage 😂
Wow, great quality! Are you shooting in HEVC or ProRes? Looking for the best options cuz i also have S22 Ultra. Very nice colors btw!
Thank you. I shoot in RAW and then transcoded to prores cineon log. Then graded them with a Lut I've prepared. With adjustments here and there when needed. In this video, there were minor color denoising as well.
sound is very much out of sync
HAHA. I'll pay more attention to the sync next time. By the way, didn't you use to make English videos? I think I watched quite a lot of it wayy back.
S23 Ultra case is out www.amazon.com/Case-Asteroom-Samsung-S23-Ultra/dp/B0CBPRS5WN
Is it possible to fit a 17mm lens in this phone case?
According to asteroom's description, it should. Despite the bad render 😂
😊
S22 ultra?
Yessir it is
Nice
Thank you 😁
How much and is it worth it?
I don't recall how much it was cause I wasn't paying haha. But it's worth it if you really like a challenge cause the whole trip wasn't a stroll-in-the-park kind of experience. There were a few times I thought I'd fly off the hill to my death 😂
www.atvadventurepark.com/packages.php
I need to give this app a shot again. I've been using exclusively Mcpro24fps for my films. Wonder how this will work out for my longer format content.
The new beta is really good for long form since you can record in hevc 10-bit straight from the RAW stream. Give it a try!
