The "Things that annoy you" thread would have been a perfect place for this gripe.
It's hard to one-hand horizontal video. I'll take vertical video if I feel like it.
Have you seen the last two hurricanes?Quote:

If you are documenting something that might make the news, whether hurricane, tsunami or chimpout please flip horizontal

Turn phone sideways.
Now press record with your trigger finger.
Oh, shit, I said trigger, and now you’re triggered and need to find a safe space
No it's not. You just need to use your fingers instead of holding your phone like an icecream cone.Quote:

I have a harder time keeping the phone stable if I don't grip it like i am strangling my dick. However, since I am usually holding my dick and not my phone, I don't shoot a lot of video. So you can be thankful for that.Quote:

There are a lot of other things in this world to be upset about right now other than vertical video. (Polyass comments that would have gone here have been omitted to avoid derailing this beautiful piece of performance art we collectively own.)
This makes a lot of sense. I still prefer to see what is next to the main point of focus rather than seeing what is above and below it. That could be due to my enculturation through TV, and the end user could always hold their phone sideways to view the vid as well.Quote:
