Choose the Best Video Camera for Wedding Videography

Selecting the proper camera equipment is crucial for filming high-quality wedding videos with stunning image quality. At Grace & Motion, we invest in top-tier equipment to capture your special day in cinematic detail. Read on for expert insight into the cameras and features we recommend for the best professional wedding videography.

PRIORITISE IMAGE SENSOR SIZE

A camera’s image sensor size directly impacts the quality and low-light performance, which is essential for high-quality wedding videos. Larger sensors excel in dim reception lighting. Our primary cameras are Blackmagic 6K Pro models boasting full-frame 35mm sensors similar to DSLRs. This provides gorgeous image rendition and artistic bokeh blur effects. The advanced tech in these cinema cameras delivers unparalleled video quality for all of your wedding memories.

CONSIDER RECORDING FORMATS

We shoot weddings in 4K resolution to retain maximum detail for editing, ensuring your cinematic wedding videography stands out. Our cameras record in high-quality formats like RAW and ProRes for optimal flexibility in post-production. High bitrate recording ensures excellent image quality. We deliver videos in crystal clear high-definition 1080p.

INVEST IN LENSES FOR VERSATILITY

Our equipment arsenal includes an array of lenses like wide angles for venue-establishing shots, telephotos to capture emotion from afar, and fast primes for beautiful bokeh. Selecting the perfect lens for each moment enables us to artfully tell your story. Wide aperture lenses excel in low light, ensuring high-quality footage throughout the day.

ENSURE EFFECTIVE AUTOFOCUS

We rely on autofocus to keep up with the spontaneous moments of your wedding. Our cameras boast advanced focusing with face and eye tracking to keep you sharp as you move. This avoids any missed shots from manual focusing errors, ensuring professional wedding videography results.

CONSIDER SOUND QUALITY

While most footage will get overlayed with songs for wedding videos in editing, clean on-camera audio is useful as backup and for moments without music. We capture sound through external recorders and high-end microphones. Multiple audio sources provide flexibility in post, enhancing the overall quality of your wedding video.

USE CAMERA STABILISERS

Gimbal and grip gear is essential for stable, professional-looking footage while shooting handheld. This allows us to smoothly follow you throughout the day, ensuring a fluid, cinematic look in your wedding videography.

HAVE BACKUP CAMERA BODIES

At each wedding, we shoot with multiple camera bodies and lenses to capture different angles simultaneously. Having reserves ensures we can keep filming non-stop, even if a camera requires troubleshooting, providing a seamless wedding videography experience.

INVEST IN RELIABLE MEMORY CARDS

We only trust top-performing memory cards from leading brands to record hours of flawless 4K footage. Cards are formatted before each event. Using multiple cards allows uninterrupted shooting, crucial for high-quality wedding videography.

WORK WITH AN EXPERIENCED TEAM

Whilst equipment is important, our seasoned videographers make the real difference through skillful operation. Our artists have an innate talent for composing striking shots. They anticipate moments to capture authentic emotions, ensuring creative wedding videography results. Trust our expertise.

POST-PRODUCTION AND DELIVERY

Let us handle the technical details, so you can stay focused on enjoying your day. Subsequently, after your wedding, we methodically edit by using the highest quality footage. With proper planning for file sizes, we promise seamless delivery of your wedding video to relive for a lifetime. When you hire Grace & Motion as your York wedding videographer team, you get experienced operators using cinema-quality apparatus to beautifully capture your memories.
