@jlang1959 HI, I own both the 90D and the R7. The R7 is the better camera. I did buy it with the 18-150mm RF kit lens. But I also bought the adapter to use all my older EF lenses as well. But I find myself rarely using and other lens than the kit lens. I mostly do some general photography and shoot video of special events at my church. I usually throw my 90D on the tripod using the 18-135mm lens for filming. Then I use my lighter to hold R7 to take stills and also zoom in for some closeups to film. I also us a Rodes microphone on the 90D to capture sound.

The number one thing you see with photography beginners is buying expensive gear that doesn't suit their needs or gathers dust on a shelf. If I were you, I'd get myself a used X-T3/X-T30 or a used a6400 after testing them in the shop and see what happens.

@Strawberry Kiys it might seem so, but he still defined the terms quite well, he deserves some credit for that. Canon's dual pixel Auto Focus system tracks subjects by detecting light and colour. It applies the rules of composition quite well and it does so by tracking subjects in the depth of field given by the lenses, but the Phase Detect system by sony is somewhat different as the sensors intelligently tracks faces when the subject is placed at a distance and eyes when the subject is much closer. I'm a canon shooter, I use the canon 6dii 80d, 800d and the 750d and I'm quite conversant with the dual pixel autofocus system as it's made my work easier, though I havent used sony cameras so much, I know phase detect is much better with subject tracking after using the sony a7r ii once side by side with the canon 6dii.

It's funny, though I had a film SLR back as a teen, I really got into photography right when the first mirrorless cameras came out ... in 2009! I was going to buy a DSLR, but after seeing the Panasonic Lumix GF1, I decided that I had to have it. Been using mirrorless ever since. So, for me, it hasn't "come out of nowhere" at all, but rather has been a long, slow road to the cameras that we have now. There were always advantages to mirrorless systems, but they were outweighed by the early technological deficiencies (e.g., really bad low-res, laggy EVFs.) In 10 years, though deficiencies have all by gone away, while the advantages have strengthened. With a few niche exceptions (e.g., top-end sports), they are at least a viable alternative, if not a clearly better choice.

I think they blew up so much because companies like Sony and Fuji shattered the market with those all of a sudden. They were just as good as the pro DSLR with a few drawbacks which are easy compromisable. They offered new technologies and advantages. They also offered the promise of being lighter and less noticable. Technically the first ever phone with a camera was a mirrorless camera - but as said, most companies didn't want to adopt those for interchangeable lens systems. Look at Canon and Nikon who went along when Sony released their Sony Alpha 7RIII (generally speaking, their Alpha 7 (R/S) III line) and they have many of the drawbacks the first Sonys had (if I remember this correctly and got told so correctly by reviews). It's awesome to see them on the rise and I wish that companies will focus more on them while not letting down DSLR. And it is also very complicated being all the time on top of the technical side of photography, even I as a "gear-addict" (I love to see new gear and see reviews and read all the things about them and stuff ... The only way I can live it out since I got no money) have problems keeping up with all the news. Surely, I didn't learn anything new about mirrorless cameras from this video but I'll recommend it to all the people who wanna know and wanna know especially the differences of those.

My EOS 600D/Rebel T3i has not once let me down (except, I didn't reload the batteries... Which is... Stupid, to be honest). It's still doing it's job after almost six years. So, the thing is, we also have to assume how long cameras are being used by people. Camera bodys get changed more frequently than lenses... So, we should have to asked the average lifetime of a camera for one person (so, how long does one use it) vs the expected lifetime of a camera (how long is it useable after assembling it). I assume most DSLRs are built with at least 5-10 years of functionality. Next question needs to be: How expensive is it to replace the different parts that fail...

What a great video! It makes me want to move up from my Samsung cell phone to a mirrorless camera with no SLR in between. That's salesmanship!

What I would like to have on a professional camera, Is an operating system like iOS or Android which allows me to install apps (and a corresponding SOC like the A13 or better) that offer functionality where Canon, Nikon, Sony don't. I'm thinking about automatic removing the background in product photos, autostacking of macro or low light shots, programmability of shooting for e.g. timelaps, or automatic capture of motion and shutter release, stitching of photos (stitching, panoramas), and much more that makes computational photography possible. Sure, this is also possible in post production, but that costs time, and time is money. They are professional cameras, designed for people who make their money with them. Product photos with automatic removing the background in product photos in fractions of a second, and sent directly to the folder on a computer via WLAN saves a lot of Photoshop hours or outsourcing the work to Poland or India. The Canon, Nikon, Sony of this world are like the car industry that listens too much to Jeremy Clarksons. When a manufacturer puts a smart FF camera on the market that gives me the freedom to install Android or iOS apps on it, I sell all my Canon stuff. Unless it's Canon. Pentax has a very good FF on the market, and one of the best medium format cameras. Unfortunately Ricoh/Pentax is not doing well. If Samsung or Apple bought them, and they put a SOC in there, new operating system on it... Oh what possibilities there would be. With a good automatic removing the background in product photos alone, a professional camera would earn itself back within a few months.

Woah, I did not expect to learn so many technical details on how both systems work and that's a really nice surprise! Great video :D

One aspect I personally prefer in my SLR’s is the dust control the mirror provides. Changing lenses in a dusty environment is a great way to f up your sensor and ensuing images. I can rely on my SLR mirror to effectively control that problem. Cleaning my mirror is nowhere near as touchy a process as cleaning my sensor

Just brought my 90D, I'm happy with my DSLR.

Lots of useful info. I tried mirrorless for about a week and found that I couldn't use it. If your vision is that of an older person requiring near vision correction (around age 40 and up), you MAY find that the EVF is nearly impossible to use and for some, even the LCD can be problematic. Plus, I'm old school enough that your face is part of the grip of the camera to remove as much shake as possible. Which is why I only use live view on my Canon 5D Mark III for limited purposes. If I still had young eyes, I'd switch to a smaller lighter camera in a heartbeat. For what it's worth.

Interesting things to consider

I learned photography on a SLR with black and white film (in 2013 no less). I really value the optical viewfinder of a traditional DSLR.

Why even beginning with FILM?! Must be super expensive to develop etc, no editing possible at all except the traditional, "complex" methods... i began more serious photography in about 2009 as the EOS 400D was released, with a digital camera i have at least "free" film and shootout doesnt matter, only restricted by the memory card size which was even in the early DSLR days A LOT BIGGER than any stills film camera. Even from a creative standpoint i see an EVF a lot better than an OVF... focus peaking for manual focus, too awesome and needed! exposure simulation... what you see is what the the image will look like pretty much! On OVF/DSLR you have to trust the internal exposure simulation and check images. customizable screen/infos like buffer bar for bursts etc. no blackout while shooting low light... you just see modern mirrorless cameras outperform also the average DSLR in autofocus performance. I could use my EOS RP with a 1.4 lens as a "light amplifier" especially on the OLED EVF, not so much on the horrendous backlight bleeding LCD. On a OVF you see NOTHING.

@@harrison00xXx Film might be the best way to learn photography. It forces you to stop and think about your shot. You need to learn how to know what it's going to look like before you take the photo. It makes you work harder to avoid wasting film, and it prevents you from just taking a thousand shots until you get a good one by happenstance. If you roll your own, you can get some decent film (kentmere) for $4/roll, and chemicals are cheap. It's easy to rapid fire shoot digital and get good shots while learning nothing. As for viewfinders, they're both cool, but EVFs are a pain when you're shooting with a flash because its black at those settings. There's probably a way to get around this, but I prefer it when the viewfinder just works and the back display shows all the electronic stuff.

@@derp195 The obvious counterpoint to that is, if it takes a thousand shorts to find _that_ good photo, you are a heck of a lot more likely to get it with digital. Being conservative with the shots because of the cost, time and effort also means you're more likely to miss that shot. I agree, you'll value a photo taken with a film camera more, because of that long process, but I am not sure it makes you better in any way. The best athletes in the world don't limit their training as much as possible to become better. They grind and grind until it's all second nature. The electronic viewfinder gives you the view of what your camera sees, while a mirror view finder only shows you what your eyes can see. SLR and DSLR are cool in their way, but they are falling short on all points with cameras using the same lens and sensor makes.

@@duckofdeath3266 That's why I shoot digital when I'm doing a job, but I still think film is better to *learn*. If you shoot digital, you can take as many photos as you want. That means you aren't thinking about what you need to do to get a good photo as much as you are rapid fire shooting because you know you'll get some stuff you can work with. To be a good photographer, you can't rely on getting lucky, you need to know exactly how to get the shot when it presents itself. You need to know how the photo will turn out before you press the shutter, and that doesn't come from taking as many photos as possible, it comes from being forced to think about each shot. I don't think the sports analogy is very appropriate. Maybe something more like shooting a target with a bolt action rifle vs machine gun. They both end up hitting the target, but the person who learned with the rifle will be more accurate, because they were forced to be.

This is such a great video and explains so much of the trends I saw in camera popularity in the last 10 years.

Literally Took this video as a lecture and Made notes. So informative.

I used to have a Nikon D700, I was pretty happy with it, but it was quite bulky and lacked a lot of new camera featrures and video recording. Looking at what to get, I opted for a second hand Fujifilm XT2 (mirrorless), and I am pretty impressed both for the qulity of the camera itself, and the quality of the pictures. The best part is that I can now fit my camera with a couple of lenses in a pretty small bag, so I use the camera way more. :)

@mmgull

Did the same nikon d700 to fuji xt2. But must say xt3 is the benchmark. Xt2 had much poorer AF tracking. Anything older than xt3 is only good enough in single point AFS, focus and recomopose like on d700. Also if you buy big f1.4 apsc lenses, you're better off with small f2 full frame lenses. So whether nikon to fuji is an imorovement depends on the model of camera and on the type of lenses.

Fascinating and Incredibly informative! A near perfect blend of expertise and narrative skill and talent. Damn it, though, I will now be forced to spend a lot of time studying the subject. (And I too have large hands.)

I miss my OM-1. It always took amazing photos. I still have my OM-3. Wish there was a way to convert it from film to digital.

Great video, these focusing terms will help if I ever decide to go mirror less. Right now I'm sticking to DSLRs, I just can afford to re-stock on a whole new set of lenses. Another issue I have with mirror less is the battery life and the EVF (electronic view finder) although I heard things have gotten better. When I go out and take pictures an optical viewfinder helps me feel and become part of the scene, with an EVF I feel like an odd guy peeping in...

I recently purchased a Nikon 1 N1, a Canon FD lens, and an adapter (about $85 total) and have been taking really sweet photos, since. I realize that it's been all manual focus, but I really prefer manual over auto. Before this odd coupling, I always assumed that Nikon bodies should be with F lenses, Canon with FD or FL lenses, etc. The results of having what is considered one of the better lenses for the time, the Canon FL/FD with a really decent sensor receptor has been a franken-marriage made in heaven. It also makes me wish the camera companies would get over their egos and agree upon one mount. This is another case of I wish KZread would allow posting jpgs as an option. I would love to see other persons work and to be able to show my own, at times.

Wierckx apparently you have no clue what you’re talking about. The battery issue was solved in Sony cameras with the latest range and they outlast dslr batteries with ease. You’re just using the typical “I’m afraid of change so I’ll make up some reason not to” argument. You’re obviously talking from an ignorant standpoint and have never used something like and a7111 or a9, because if you had used one you’d know that they far out perform a d750. Nothing in the Nikon line up can compete with the a9 for auto focus, not even a d5. Maybe stop listening to fuckwits like the angry photographer and actually use the camera yourself before drawing an uninformed conclusion?

I can literally just grab my camera with a versatile lens and run around shooting all day worry free with no bag. A film camera can't go bagless all day long on 36 shot rolls.

It's been a few years since I researched this but I believe that 30 minute limit is to reduce the amount of tax you pay on device. If the 30 minute limit was removed your 80D would be classed as video camera and have a higher rate of tax charged on it, at least in the EU.

@@cLaw27 That is incorrect. Panasonic's cameras like the G85, G95, GH4, GH5, and GH5s have no 30 minute recording limit for video. Technically the only reason this exists is to make the camera cheaper in the EU, in my opinion all camera makers should ditch that and people in the EU can pay more for cameras until they fight to have those incredibly antiquated laws changed.

Ultimately, the very best camera anyone has is the one they have with them when they need it. Personally, I like my viewfinder too much to change away from my DSLR or FSLR etc. Bright conditions are tricky with mirrorless, where a viewfinder comes up trumps. Oh, jolly good video, thanks.
