Posting videos with a Phone

[mvanert]

This is my two cents, a recommendation when shooting videos with your phone that you would like to share with others and on this forum and elsewhere such as YouTube. Please use the 'landscape' mode instead of 'verticle or portrait' mode, it provides a much broader scope of what you are sharing to the viewer, i.e. less sky and ground and more of the overall scene.

Enjoy your Camino!

Thank you!
In most cases I find watching videos taken in portrait mode to be annoying, and avoid watching them.

Me too, hence this post.

I try to, but when I hand my phone to someone horizontally they always turn it to portrait mode to take my picture/video. Very annoying.

Apple and Android mobile makers: How long will it take them to finally default video to landscape?
It would be so simple: Video taking only possible in Landscape. (Of course, there can be an override).
