i have watched and search for 3 hours on the issue of camera for beginners. YOURS just answered them right on the spot THANK YOU. Keep on going, u got the grip on getting to the subject matter systematically and easy to understand. i almost give up, then i come across yours.....thumbs up

Great explanation on the different types of cameras. You helped me cleared my queries on mirrorless and DSLR camera. Thank you!

What would’ve made this easier for me would be seeing what kind of quality pictures they actually take, whether that be thru a gallery or printed out (in my case) Great video nonetheless

Very helpful video. I am at the beginning of my photography journey and this video has answered some questions I didn't even know I had! Thanks.

Well done & to the point. I' m 3 yrs into shooting & have joined a photography group - which really makes for more enjoyment. I 1st tried the Sony a6000 which took good photos but had a very poor menu / operation sys. & no touch screen. I now use a Panasonic Fz2500 bridge camera & am very happy. Way better user interface & flip out touch screen. It basically has the ' kitchen sink ' in terms of features & is fairly light weight. I've noticed that a # of the ladies in our club have stopped coming to the outings with their heavy DSLR's but now use mirrorless kits for the lighter weight. As you said, if one doesn't enjoy their gear it will end up at home on the shelf. Thanks

Awesome information , really helped and I now know what type of camera I should be looking for. Now I need to go find the one that's right for me , and one that feels good in my hands. THANK YOU ,for clearing up the technical stuff !!!! I would recommend your video for anyone that wants to get a good camera but really doesn't know anything about photography. THANKS AGAIN !!!!

Your video super educational and it really clears all the doubts. You should make more videos on the technicalities of a camera and what is aperture, af, etc. so that more people can learn. Your way of explaining was also very good. Really enjoyed your video, keep it up mate!!

Very informative. I finally understand at least the basics of the differences between a mirrorless and DSLR.

Great video man. A few points I would have added are the fact that with a electronic view finder you literally see what the end product looks like while you're shooting without having to look down at the back display like you would on a dslr. The zebras and focus peaking are also a nice added bonus.

I posted this as a standalone comment but I doubt he will see it, so, Maybe you can help me? You seem to know a lot about cameras based off of these comments I read. I've been using 1 G7x Mark 1 & 3 SJ4000 action cams for about 2 years now The canon does great in low light however the battery life and recording limit suuuuckkkss and I need something with longer record time because I can't interrupt my drumming to change batteries/start another recording. Also...1 of my sj4000's broke a few weeks ago. At first I thought I should just get another action camera, then I thought maybe a point and shoot, then dslr, now camcorder...basically, I have no idea lol After I've tried out a few different cameras in my studio setting to see what works for me, I would probably end up getting 1 or 2 more of those cameras in the future to match the quality, BUT I don't really want another G7x Mark 1 OR 2 because it only shoots videos up to 16 mins in 1080p60fps and 30 mins in lower resolutions.....I need a lot longer video recording than that. One problem is that my studio is virtually pitch black when I record, aside from the 2 Neewer 176 LED lights I use pointed on me and my drums. There is no other light source in my studio (ceiling lights are turned off) ^^^ I've researched and learned that action cams don't do well in low light and adding more light can even make a bad camera better and is probably my best option, but I also wanna keep that infinite black background look. So I may be getting 2 more of those Neewer lights and have 1 on each corner of my drum rug, but not if that will take away the black background look. But what do you recommend? Action camera? DSLR? Point and shoot? Camcorder? BIG NOTE: This camera is strictly for video recording! Since I already have a g7x, I can get great pictures and I don't need something for that. I don't plan on selling my g7x because I probably won't get much for it in 2018. --------------------------------------------------- My lighting setup/scenario: 1. Black background all around my walls. 2. No ceiling lights on. 3. 2 Neewer 176 LED lights on myself and my drums at roughly 10-20% brightness ^So it's basically pitch black aside from the LED lights. Things I don't care about: 1. Audio quality --- I get that edited 2. Stabilization --- they'll be mounted on either a tripod or a boom mic stand. 3. 4k --- I think 1080p60fps is enough to get a cool slo-mo effect (I could be wrong tho) Things I care about: 1. Price - $300-$500 USD (Since I may need to get 2 or even 3 of the camera I go with) ^^^Though I'm willing to spend a little more on a good DSLR/point and shoot if I have to and possibly just get 1 camera while I continue to use my g7x mk1. 2. Shoots GREAT video quality in super low light (Little to no Grain/Noise) 3. NEEDS to be able to shoot video for longer than 45 minutes (Preferably 1 hour and up) ^^^Bonus if it can record while charging. 4. Has a pretty good color profile in low light. 5. Adjustable settings (WB, ISO, Exposure, etc) 6. Easy to use & easy to get my footage off the camera --- I prefer just plugging my SD cards straight into my laptop the "old-fashioned" way. 7. I'd like to have continuous auto-focus for that price range (Drumming means my arms are flailing around) Some of My Options: Action cams -> DSLR/Point and shoot -> Camcorder 1. Yi Lite - haven't gotten yet 2. Yi-4k - haven't gotten yet 3. SJ7 Star - haven't ordered. 4. Canon EOS M50 5. Canon EOS Rebel T4i 6. Canon EOS Rebel T5i 7. Canon EOS Rebel T6 8. Canon 70D (but pretty expensive for 1 camera) 9. Canon EOS 700D 10. Canon EOS Rebel SL2 11. Panasonic Lumix LX10 12. Panasonic Lumix G7 4k 13. Panasonic G85 (I'm told this has no video recording limit) 14. Nikon D3200 24.2 MP 15. Sony 4k FDRAX33 16. Sony Handycam CX405 17.

Is'nt one of the points about the dslr that you can see directly what the lens is looking at? I've only used a compact for electronic photography but that was certainly the point for my old mechanical camera.

Thank you for so much good advice. I'm in need of a new camera and wasn't sure what type to pick from. But now I know DSLR is the way for me.

Great video, really useful info for someone who's about to buy their first camera, such as myself. Thanks a million from Spain!

Thank you so much I’m looking to buy a camera this really helped me a lot thx dude.

Thank you so much for making this video ive struggled understanding the differences and were to go for what i want in my cameras the examples you used and the metaphor you used is very helpful,thank you again.

Thank you! As ever, a brilliantly simple explanation of the different camera types. You're the first person who has been able to explain the advantages of DSLR. My Fuji bridge camera has an electronic viewfinder, so it displays exactly the view through the lens, with no mirror or prism. This makes it lighter and quieter than any mirrored camera. I was convinced that DSLRs were an expensive con, but you have come up with some advantages I had not thought of.

Great video, Taught me everything I needed to know. Thank you!

Omg at first I was watching this video like "what the hell dude, get to the point" .and thats exactly what you did. You covered every point and explained each camera very well.

I'm leaning toward a cannon rebel... T6 or 7. Maybe a Pentax... I live in New England, so weather resistance is helpful

A great video by breaking things down. A few points to add. Compacts now have up to 40x optical zoom, so 1000mm in real terms and still fit in a shirt pocket (but their optics are compromised and slow to focus at the long end of the zoom). Bridge cameras have up to 125x optical zooms, so 3000mm in real terms. Their lenses are also comparable to SLR lens's aperture wise and sharper than compact's lenses, plus they focus quicker than compacts. Many people buy them for the zoom range over a mirrorless or SLR camera as they get more bang for the buck. One issue is when they are powered down, it can take 10 seconds to turn on, zoom to the long end, focus then lens and shoot. An SLR can be left on at full zoom ready to go in 1 second from sleep. Compacts/bridges are hard to focus and use manually and their viewfinders are generally low quality. SLR lenses top out at 600mm for full frame cameras and 900mm for crop sensor cameras in comparison. Mirrorless cameras do not suffer from backfocus issues on the sensor like SLR's and only mid to high range SLR's allow micro focus adjustments of lenses to make them sharper. Mirrorless cameras are now getting bigger like SLR's, Sony A7 series, Panasonic G9, Fuji X-H1. And your right how it feels in the hand IS very important! Keep up the good work..

This has been the most helpful video I’ve come across for cameras!

This video was more insightful than any other type of media I went through. Not even the people I knew to take up photography professionally could help me out. Thanks a lot!

Great tutoeial video. Thanks. Im a newbie at this topic and want to buy a camera. This is usefl info to u derstand the basic differencea on the cameras league. 👍

Finally found a good explanation for a newbie like me...

Hi Dave, this is the second of your efforts that I've watched tonight, I must say that I really like the way you do your stuff, neat and simple and down to to earth, thank you. I didn't start to find out what sort of photographer I am until quite recently, after fourteen years of shooting bridge cameras, now with APSc I' finding that mostly for me the practice of photography is about the shooting experience, going out to observe the environment and take close-up, landscapes, wildlife, sky, sunsets, you know all that outdoor stuff. The point being the act or practice of shooting is more important than the resulting images, they are just my record of the experience. To some considerable extent the exact choice is not important, I would say that there is at the moment quite a range of choice of systems and formats that would give me what I want, but once you have bought into any of the current offerings you are somewhat trapped, all sorts of other components are not interchangeable, lenses in particular, also as you get to know you gear you cannot help but find yourself making best use of what it offers and it becomes the best camera for you because its what you've got and know!. Cheers, Richard.

I'm a newbie travel blogger/photographer so I've been thinking about getting a DSLR but now that I finally understand what a mirrorless camera is, I might look into those too...

This is one of the best explanations of the differences between digital cameras. Consumers are bombarded with ads and pop-ups on the internet about this camera or that camera. But before making any decision for a quality camera, any consumer or serious photographer needs to understand the differences to make an intelligent decision. I have been a longtime film photographer and still use film, but I have also shot Quite a bit with a Nikon D70 and Nikon D90. Now I am thinking of an upgrade and this video helps me eliminate the mirror less camera whose selling point is weight advantage but do not have an optical viewfinder and a shorter battery life to power its sensors and digital viewfinder. This video has been very helpful.

At long last! Someone that can explain this to me in plain language. Thank you!

Thank you Dave

Wow! I finally feel like I know something about cameras. Just what I was looking for. Thank you for this!

Great video! I sometimes get asked for recommendations so I was looking for something on behalf of a mate. I would maybe add that if you're starting to worry about size and weight of the complete system (including lenses), then the size of the sensor is probably more important than whether it's mirrorless/DSLR. A fair few people who do wildlife-in-the-wild choose smaller sensors to avoid carrying huge heavy lenses on long hikes, for example.

Regarding mirrorless cameras: Not only the sensor being continuously enabled, batteries are usually smaller than in their DSLR counterparts. Also, Olympus has introduced phase-detect autofocus on the E-M1 and E-M5, which rivals many DSLR cameras (though continuous autofocus is marginally worse).

@DaveMcKeegan

4 жыл бұрын

Phase detection on the sensor has actually been around for many years - Canon, Sony & Nikon all use phase detection AF on most of their mirrorless cameras

I agree, there is a mass exodus on Nikons and Canons. A lot of great used new gear up for sale for good values. Today's modern cameras have such great technology. Any camera will fit any photographer as long as they're not limited to a brand. Or the status quo of the past. Let the features of the camera fit the need of the photographer.

Thank you for this video. I am in the process of buying a good camera for my wife and I to use for taking regular close up photos and long distance photos. My wife is a watercolor artist who wants to expand her point of view to include landscape, animals, etc. I have been trying to research the differences between types of cameras (compact, bridge, mirrorless, and DSLR) and have been unsuccessful with getting answers or comparisons. You are the first to truly explain it, in an easy to understand method. We tried a compact and a bridge and was unhappy with the results and the abilities. Based on your information, I intend to go to a camera shop and test the Canon Rebel T7 DSLR. The price point is good and the abilities it has is solid. Next up, is put it into our hands to determine if we like the feel and weight. It will be a travel companion as well. THANK YOU AGAIN. I will be subscribing to your videos.

Dude this was so incredibly helpful! Thank you thank you! Keep up the great work!

Thanks a lot. A very helpful video. I'm getting a Canon 80d.

My aim: Very good quality photos/videos, traveling, carrying without extra heavy weight, good zoom & micro, price is not a problem. I like photography. What do you recommend? I think I lean more towards bridge/mirrorless but still not sure if I'll miss out the dslr quality.

In the Sony, it focused my eye and everything around my eye so well. Idk much about cameras, can this be the lens? I’m so confused on what camera to buy.

There's a few decent ones out there but they are often in an awkward place in between compacts and DSLRs. I started out with a Fuji S8400W which was a pretty good budget bridge camera back in the dayimo, but after a year and a half I realized that it was just too damn awful in low light conditions or too slow in general for taking snaps of things in motion, so I invested in a budget DSLR (Nikon D3300). Needing specific gear for each lens for the DSLR (which also adds up in costs by themselves) definitely burnt a hole in my wallet but it was very much worth it. If you're serious about getting into photography, just dive straight into DSLR's, get yourself a basic kit lens (or a good 35mm prime if you like learning it the hard way while taking nicer pics in general) and invest in a telephoto on top of that (Nikon has good and cheap 55-200mm and 70-300mm lenses). It might seem like a hassle to be swapping kits sometimes but it will definitely be worth it. If it still seems like a hassle, it'll be easier to resell it as well while you look for something that'll suit you more without completely breaking the bank, whether it's a compact or a bridge.

I have a compact camera, and the focus can be super frustrating

This is, perhaps, the best video on this subject I've seen. I absolutely love my DSLR, but severe arthritis is now forcing me to consider swapping it out for something lighter in weight and easier to physically manage. Have been torn between a bridge and a mirrorless, and your video answered a lot of the questions that I'd had. Thanks!

This was great advice, too bad my Wife didn't see this before she bought me a DSLR (RebelT6) to replace my Nikon P510 Bridge Camera. She like a lot of people think that the DSLR, looks professional and thinks that bigger is better so jumped right into the DSLR. Yes the DSLR's have their place but *not* in my hands. I hate the idea of not being able to simply point and shoot between close and far off distances instantly. With the DLSR you are severely limited to whatever lens you happen to have on at the moment, so there is no speed shooting between long and short distances. I hated having to swap out lenses and each being so limited in their function. I can't imagine sitting on the beach having to swap out lenses, fumbling with all the covers, caps & lens bodies. While boating or kayaking too, I wouldn't use the DSLR due to the fact of having to fumble with all the lenses. This is the differences between camera systems (DSLR & bridge) that novices like us should know beforehand or be told in the store. I'll stick with a bridge thankyou.

Warren Stenden , I couldn’t agree more ... Canon SX70 HS , great bridge camera .

Great review! Enormous help! Detailed yet direct! Thanks

that was the most clear and helpful video for this question

I dont know. Sure budget level mirrorless... But the a6000 is not too pricey and has a really good af. You should also mention all the advantages of mirrorless, wysiwyg, also better vision in lowlight in my experience ( yeah noise. Better noise than darkness), e shutter, no mirrorslap, resulting in sharper images at slow speeds. All disadvantages of mirrorless except batterylife seem to be gone now,its the only necessary disadvantage i can think of.

Not all mirrorless have electronic shutters, they are becoming more common but they aren't in all cameras. Also as I mentioned in the video, EVFs vs OVFs is a matter of personal preference, not everybody likes EVFs while other people swear by them.

Dave McKeegan of course not all have them, as not all have worse af systems. Basically. All your points apply to older cameras, but except battery life, id dare say Theres no disadvantage in (Sony) mirrorless anymore since the 6500/a9. I was trying to talk about mirrorless in principal, in General. Mirrorless can have an e shutter, dslr only in liveview without working AS dslr without finder.

The mirrorless AF systems are no doubt getting better, Sony's eye AF works fantastically for portraits etc, however for tracking things like sports and wildlife only the really higher end mirrorless can truly rival DSLR systems. Canon's dual pixel is regarded as one of the best sensor based AF systems around, but I never see photographers using live view over OVF for shooting sports etc which is why I said for fast paced environments DSLR might be the best choice

It's still a DSLR, however the moment you put a DSLR into liveview, it becomes a mirrorless setup. For example, take a Canon 80D in liveview and it works exactly the same as an M5 mirrorless. It's not to say you can't use other camera systems for certain types of photography. It's that if you are looking for a camera to shoot primarily sports and wildlife then you may find a DSLR autofocus to be a bit more swift and reliable, or as I said if you are using the larger lenses then you might find mirrorless cameras to be a bit too small to get a good grip and balance. It is all personal preference

Sony a6000

Really helpful video, thank you. Now I know what camera is best for me.

Thank you! Very nice without pointing out this is the best camera for life!

I'm still a newbie, been shooting daily with a compact for about 18 months (Sony RX100 iii) and it's a cracking little camera, certainly for landscape/street stuff for Instagram/Flickr and family stuff for use at home but I'm oh so ready to move up to an interchangeable lens system now. Still think full frame is a bit out of my price range, I don't intend to use the camera to make any money with any time soon, and I like the smaller form factors so I think I'm going APS-C mirrorless. Basically I'm fishing for suggestions, somewhere in the £1000-1200 price range, which appears to be a shoot out between the Sony A6300 with kit or the Fuji XT20 with kit if I want to buy new, and I kinda want to buy new. Thoughts?

A6300 and Fuji XT20 are both great cameras, and either would be a big step up from the RX100iii Fuji probably has a slight (very slight) advantage over the Sony in terms of image quality and colour, however the Fuji body is quite a bit different to the Sony as it has a lot more dials rather than on screen options. From your perspective, especially for a hobby point of view there isn't enough difference between either camera to pick which you should go for. This is really down to a case of try them yourself and see which you prefer, you may find the Sony as it's buttons / menus will be closer to what you are already used to, or you may prefer the centered EVF and better aspect ratio of the Fuji.

Well, I'm heading off to the big camera shop in Whitechapel tomorrow. What do you mean by "better aspect ratio" though? They both shoot 3x2 natively for stills, right? Is it a video thing?

@DaveMcKeegan

6 жыл бұрын

Both shoot 3x2 stills, however the video is 16:9 (more rectangular), the screen on the A6300 is 16:9 where as the screen on the XT20 is 3:2, so still images display full screen on the XT20, whereas on the A6300 will still show the image but it will appear smaller because it won't use the edges of the screen. Where as if shooting video, the A6300 will fill the screen but the Fuji will have crop lines top and bottom. Probably wont be a make or break thing but is something to bare in mind

Unless you plan to get additional lenses, you really do not get that much by going APS-C. The sensor is larger but the kit lens is slower. If you plan to go wide angle, tele or get a fast prime them things are different.

I’m confused as hell after I’ve watched this. Still great though.

Very well explained! Thank you so much!

Thank you for your video. After presenting the available choices of cameras I feel I am now equiped to make a well balanaced choice.

Excellent video mate! I shared the link of this vid with myself for future reference. Solved a lot of confusion and a hell lot of browsing over website, Amazon and eBay.

An excellent, comprehensive review of all the available camera systems!! I ended up choosing a Compact Canon SX74HS to replace my Nikon D200 after having a stroke as it became too difficult to hold the heavier D200 steady and changing the lenses!

I come from the future, pizza sheets for all

I think the compact camera market is probably dying. Don't get me wrong, I have had a compact Nikon camera for like the past 7 years, but now they are basically useless because the smartphone technology has caught up with them. Bridge cameras would be great if they had larger sensors, that is why the FZ1000 is excellent

Rammatic I think they’re still relevant in the world of KZread though. Many people who decide to take up vlogging use them because of their light compact nature. Granted smartphones are catching up, people still prefer to use their phones for multifunctional purposes, which would take up a lot of time and memory space if you’re strictly using it to film for several hours in the day as vloggers do.

You are correct. However, I do see a lot of bloggers using smaller borderless cameras with kit lenses. The main drawback is most compact cameras do not have a rotating screen.

What an incredible video on cameras. I'm a big tech guy and know so much about computers, but practically nothing about cameras. Thank you for bridging that knowledge gap for me!

Awesome video just what I needed to here . Straight forward video ! Thank you!
