In the original before the upload to YouTube it looks a lot better but to me after the upload it seems to lose a bit of quality. So I am just going to run it with that setting turned on.

 

[Greyfell]

I also can not tell the difference.

 

[DaveM]

I am struggling now to find a video editor that is free and works well.

Your search results may be different than these, but here's some suggestions:

Free video editor

 

[CarlS]

I detect just a little more movement/bounce; but not enough to make any difference.

Free video editor

I have tired a few on that list but there are others that I am going to checkout

Seems like a good camera, I might have to take a look at one for my next purchase.

I just use the editor than comes with MS or with the Apple I use iMovie which is better than a lot of the ones you have to purchase.

YouTube kills the video quality. They are more into mass posting than video quality. Vimeo retains the video quality. If I have something I just want to throw out there I will use YouTube every now and then but for most of my videos I prefer Vimeo.

I was thinking about Vimeo but have not looked at it for ages, off to check it out now.

This is one I uploaded to Vimeo

That looks good too. I really can't see much difference.

 

[CarlS]

I can't see much difference either.

 

[hemibee]

The issue with YouTube is they compress the video causing the quality drop.

 

[DaveM]

I am also trying to see a difference and cannot, however the quality is not as good as in the video before and upload to these sites.

I did find some nice software that is free now I just have to get used to using it.

I'll have to look at that software. I'm not thrilled with the MS but it's worked well for me. I sure miss my old iMac.

I tried MS as well and did not like it that much. This software has loads of features by the looks of it.

 

[Greyfell]

The one thing I see different with the Vimeo video is that the speed of the motion looks closer to reality. That could be a deciding factor.

I think I will go with using Vimeo for my videos from now on. I just uploaded another to YouTube just to make sure. I will post that in the next post.

I just used it to add sound tracks to this video. It really was easy to do as well.

I just watched this video on my phone and it seemed to come out really clear. I wonder if the editor I was using before was causing the low quality.

At 2:21 in the video, there is an evergreen-looking tree leaning to the left. Is that tree still there, and what kind of tree is it? I suppose that might be an effect of the wide-angle lens.
