Take time to learn your camera. Here's why. So putting resolution and frame rate aside, as I would expect you to know where to change those settings, you should know where everything is. People complain about the menu systems. Mindset Simple. If you already own the camera and don't plan on switching to another brand, then learn where each and everything is. So the next time you're out recording, and let's say you want to use silent shutter or just not use the record button sound because maybe you're recording in a quiet environment, you'll know how to do that. I use Sony. Their menu systems are super complicated, but I've taught myself to know where each and everything is so I can get there faster. You remove the inconvenience from it, knowing the camera like the back of your hand, meaning you can work at lightning speed at all times.
