The Socialize Strategy - Camera Settings + More

In this episode, I’m sharing a wild personal update (spoiler: it involves 15 stitches and a middle-of-the-night fall), followed by two unsponsored product reviews—one brutally honest take on a trending TikTok bra alternative, and a rave about my favorite organizing pouches. Then we dive into practical, easy-to-understand tips for choosing the right iPhone camera settings for high-quality content creation without overwhelming your storage or workflow.

📱 Camera Settings Breakdown:

Default Recommended:
1080p HD at 30fps — Great balance of quality and manageable file size.
1080p HD at 60fps — Use if you plan to slow down footage; better quality slow-mo.
Avoid:
720p — Lower quality, only if desperate for storage space.
4K — Amazing quality, but huge files; only for pro projects or if exporting to big screens.
🎞️ Slow Motion Settings:

120fps vs. 240fps — Higher number = smoother slow-mo but needs more light.
Shoot in regular video and slow down in CapCut for more flexibility.
Avoid shooting slow-mo under fluorescent lights — causes flicker.
🎬 Cinematic Mode:

Shoots at 24fps in 4K with shallow depth of field — great for storytelling or stylized content.
Note: No zoom in this mode!
💡 Pro Tips:

Light is crucial for slow motion.
Be aware of local lighting systems when traveling (PAL vs NTSC frame rate differences).
Always shoot in the best quality you can afford in terms of data/storage.
You can always downscale, never upscale.
