The AVKANS GO is equipped with a 3× optical zoom lens. At the wide-angle end (1×), it boasts a horizontal field of view (HFOV) of approximately 82°, a diagonal field of view (DFOV) of around 92°, and a vertical field of view (VFOV) of roughly 53°. As the zoom level increases, the field of view narrows accordingly. At 3× zoom, the field of view shrinks to one-third of that at the wide-angle end, making it ideal for capturing close-up shots.
This guide provides tailored placement positions, zoom parameters, and practical tips for four core shooting scenarios, helping you strike a balance between frame completeness and subject prominence.
1. Church Shooting (Ceremony Recording/Live Streaming)
Suitable for weddings, religious services, and other events, it is adapted to the church's environment featuring high ceilings and soft lighting.
Full Ceremony Panorama (1×, HFOV≈82°)
Placement: Mount the tripod at the center of the church’s back row, with a height of 2–2.5 meters and a distance of 10–15 meters from the altar.
Practical Tips: Enable electronic image stabilization (EIS) to reduce slight tripod vibrations; lower the ISO in low-light environments to minimize image noise.
Subject Close-Ups (2–3×, HFOV≈27°–41°)
Placement: Set up the tripod in the side aisle of the church, 5–8 meters away from the subjects, with the lens height aligned with the subjects’ eye level.
Practical Tips: Avoid pointing the lens directly at brightly lit windows to prevent overexposure; always use a tripod when shooting with the telephoto lens to eliminate blurriness caused by hand shake.
2. Sports Field Shooting (Event Recording/Sports Vlogs)
Suitable for ball games, running events, and other activities, it meets the shooting needs of open venues and moving subjects.
Full Sports Field Panorama (1×, HFOV≈82°)
Placement: Mount the tripod in the middle tier of the stands, at a height of 3–4 meters, to overlook the entire field.
Practical Tips: Activate the motion tracking mode to accurately lock onto fast-moving athletes.
Athlete Close-Ups (2–3×, HFOV≈27°–41°)
Placement: Place the tripod or handheld stabilizer at the edge of the field, 8–10 meters away from the athletes.
Practical Tips: The telephoto lens can compress space to make subjects stand out; reduce exposure appropriately in bright outdoor conditions to prevent over-brightness on athletes’ faces.
3. Meeting Recording (Business Conferences/Academic Forums)
Suitable for corporate annual meetings, academic seminars, and other events, with the core goal of capturing the speaker, PPT content, and on-site atmosphere simultaneously.
Full Venue Panorama (1×, HFOV≈82°)
Placement: Mount the tripod at the center of the venue’s back row, with a height of 2–2.5 meters and a distance of 15–20 meters from the stage.
Practical Tips: Adjust the white balance in advance to match the venue’s lighting tone; place the core area in the center of the frame to avoid distortion of people at the edges.
Simultaneous Speaker + PPT Shooting (1.5–2×, HFOV≈41°–55°)
Placement: Set up the tripod on the side of the venue, with the lens height aligned with the speaker’s eye level and a distance of 8–10 meters.
Practical Tips: Adopt the rule of thirds for composition—place the speaker on the left side of the frame and the PPT on the right to balance visual information.
4. Teaching Video Production (Classroom Teaching/Skill Training)
Suitable for offline classes, online courses, and other scenarios, with a focus on clearly presenting the instructor, blackboard content, and hands-on operation details.
Full Instructor + Blackboard View (1×, HFOV≈82°)
Placement: Mount the tripod at the center of the classroom’s back row, with a height of 2–2.5 meters and a distance of 6–8 meters from the instructor.
Practical Tips: Ensure the lens is parallel to the blackboard to avoid trapezoidal distortion of the writing; enable the noise reduction function to minimize classroom background noise.
Instructor Close-Ups + Teaching Material Shooting (1.5–2×, HFOV≈41°–55°)
Placement: Set up the tripod on the side of the classroom, with the lens height aligned with the instructor’s eye level and a distance of 4–5 meters.
Practical Tips: Pair it with a lavalier microphone to ensure clear audio from the instructor; the medium zoom level can filter out classroom clutter for a cleaner frame.
Blackboard Writing/Hands-On Detail Shooting (3×, HFOV≈27°)
Placement: Place the desktop tripod next to the podium, 1–2 meters away from the blackboard or lab bench.
Practical Tips: Aim the lens at key content areas to avoid empty frames; use a ring fill light when shooting hands-on operations to eliminate shadows on the hands.
Proper camera placement is the key to capturing high-quality video and audio. With the AVKANS GO, you can flexibly adjust your shooting setup according to different event scales, lighting conditions, and audio requirements to achieve optimal results
