I quickly skipped through today's "Walk/Bike 'N Talk" video. He's been stung by the criticism over the past year of his content choices - so much that he has declared he won't make any proclamations anymore, like the infamous "I'm cutting way back on Disney content", or whatever. He says he's just going to do what he wants to do, and that's that. Of course, he also conducts and shows the Facebook poll on his broken phone screen because he's very curious what content people like and what they don't like...but why, if he's just going to do what he wants to do?
Anyway, the one big thing I took from today's vlog is once again how awful his footage looks. I don't mean shot content, or framing, or anything like that. The literal video quality is awful. His regular footage with the Canon G7 that he needs to re-buy every 3 months looks bad for 1080p, it's awful in anything but sunny mid-day skies. And the Go-Pro footage he has in today's blog looks like it's about 720p quality. Terrible, like he went in and chose the worst quality possible in the GoPro menus. Maybe he's trying to match awful quality with awful quality for consistency's sake.
I wonder how long he'll continue to refuse to move to 4K because of the additional size of the files, the extra time it takes to process them when editing and the extra time it takes to upload them? Then again his 4K footage will probably look worse than the average 4K footage. I know he's never been a stickler for video quality but in 2023 for any fan who watches 4K content regularly on YouTube has to notice how bad Adam's 1080p looks.
