  1. 0:00This is the R six Mark III and this is
  2. 0:02the R5 Mark II. But these are just two
  3. 0:05of the cameras in Canon's lineup. In
  4. 0:07front of us are all of these cameras.
  5. 0:10So, which one is best and which one
  6. 0:12should you get?
  7. 0:13>> In this video, we're going to discuss
  8. 0:14all of the best Canon cameras out right
  9. 0:17now and some that are not so best.
  10. 0:20>> So, if you're in the market for a new
  11. 0:22camera, you can use this video as a
  12. 0:24starting point
  13. 0:25>> to help you understand which Canon
  14. 0:27camera is best for you. It's kind of
  15. 0:29like, you know, when twins finish each
  16. 0:30other's.
  17. 0:30>> Yeah, it's very weird.
  18. 0:31>> It might be a little too too much.
  19. 0:33>> So, the Canon R100 is the cheapest, the
  20. 0:37least expensive, although I do want to
  21. 0:38say cheapest camera that Canon currently
  22. 0:40makes. Will, have you have you tried,
  23. 0:42have you heard of the R100?
  24. 0:43>> I've heard of the R100. I haven't
  25. 0:44personally used it, though.
  26. 0:45>> So, you know that it doesn't have a flip
  27. 0:47screen?
  28. 0:48>> Yeah. Or a lot of the buttons that more
  29. 0:51expensive cameras have,
  30. 0:52>> which is the challenge. And I think
  31. 0:53Canon has always been really good at
  32. 0:56just offering a very budget friendly
  33. 0:59option. So going back to like the Rebel
  34. 1:00days, I started with a Rebel T1, which
  35. 1:03probably cost like $400 or $500, the
  36. 1:05same price as the R100, but it does lack
  37. 1:09a lot. And I I struggle to recommend it
  38. 1:11to someone who is wants to go super
  39. 1:14cheap,
  40. 1:15>> especially because you can go just a
  41. 1:17little bit higher and get what in my
  42. 1:19opinion is a much better camera,
  43. 1:21especially if you're shooting video.
  44. 1:23>> You could go with a RP or an R10. Which
  45. 1:26one are you thinking?
  46. 1:26>> I see an R50V.
  47. 1:28>> Let's say you have a $1,500 budget,
  48. 1:30right? That's what I'm starting with.
  49. 1:31We're all going to go US prices. You
  50. 1:32spend $500 on either an R100 or six in a
  51. 1:37bit on an R50. you could pair that with
  52. 1:39a $1,000 lens,
  53. 1:40>> which would make a significant impact to
  54. 1:42image quality compared to just having a
  55. 1:44couple more megapixels or an extra
  56. 1:46button or dial in your camera.
  57. 1:48>> Now, there is a difference between the
  58. 1:49R50 and the R50V. The V, you can think
  59. 1:53of it as standing for video, but also
  60. 1:55like vlogging. Now, the nice thing with
  61. 1:57the 50V is it it doesn't have the
  62. 2:00viewfinder, so it's going to be a little
  63. 2:01bit more compact. You do get all of
  64. 2:03those video modes. You get a front and a
  65. 2:06rear recording button. So, if you're
  66. 2:08going to be doing like vertical content,
  67. 2:09there's like a tripod plate on the side.
  68. 2:12You can basically hold it like that or
  69. 2:14mount it like that and shoot all of your
  70. 2:16horizontal content, all of your video
  71. 2:18content. It's very much like a
  72. 2:20entry-level content creator ccentric
  73. 2:22camera. And although it doesn't have the
  74. 2:24viewfinder, I think it's really nice
  75. 2:25because you can still use it for photos,
  76. 2:27right?
  77. 2:27>> Absolutely. There's not really anything
  78. 2:29on here that is limiting that other than
  79. 2:31the viewfinder. But, ever since we
  80. 2:33switched to EVFs, most people are
  81. 2:34looking at the screens anyways. It still
  82. 2:36has the RF mount like all of these here.
  83. 2:38So, you can invest in some really nice
  84. 2:40glass for a camera like this. And then
  85. 2:42in 5 years, if things have taken off and
  86. 2:44you want to get something more like an
  87. 2:46R5 or an R six3, those same high quality
  88. 2:49lenses are still going to work on your
  89. 2:52newer cameras. And I think for a lot of
  90. 2:54vloggers, a lot of YouTubers, the camera
  91. 2:56that was super popular was the M50. And
  92. 2:59so, the 50 series is effectively that
  93. 3:01spiritual successor. So, this is already
  94. 3:03a popular camera. If you're in this
  95. 3:05price bracket, this would be the first
  96. 3:08camera in that budget line of sub $1,000
  97. 3:11that I would probably jump to.
  98. 3:13>> Anthony, would you ever buy the R100?
  99. 3:15>> The Canon R100? Yeah.
  100. 3:16>> You mean the camera that Canon made with
  101. 3:18no flip screen and basically no buttons
  102. 3:21and the worst build quality ever.
  103. 3:24>> Yeah. What's going on, Canon?
  104. 3:25>> Every other camera they made has a tilt
  105. 3:28flip screen. even the uh even the
  106. 3:30PowersShot V1, the Canon R50, which you
  107. 3:33know for what $150 more, you get a way
  108. 3:37better,
  109. 3:37>> much better value
  110. 3:38>> video package. Just saying if I had a
  111. 3:41choice between buying an R100 or not
  112. 3:42buying an R100, I would not buy an R100.
  113. 3:46>> The reality is at that price point, your
  114. 3:49phone can get some pretty simil
  115. 3:51>> 100%. Your iPhone takes better video
  116. 3:54than a Canon. Canon's not going to be
  117. 3:56happy that I said that. But you've got
  118. 3:59log, Apple log versus the R100. You
  119. 4:03don't shoot with your phone. Shoot with
  120. 4:05your phone. But if all I had to do was
  121. 4:06photos, I would consider the R100 as
  122. 4:10long as you're pairing it with a really
  123. 4:11nice lens like like something like a 24
  124. 4:13to 105 F4 and maybe you're doing photos
  125. 4:16for your small business or for whatever.
  126. 4:19I think that is the only case I would
  127. 4:23consider getting it. In any other case,
  128. 4:25I would immediately step up to a R50 or
  129. 4:27an R50V.
  130. 4:27>> Okay.
  131. 4:28>> Oh, hold on. I got a question for you.
  132. 4:29If you had a choice between the Canon
  133. 4:31R50 and the R50V,
  134. 4:33so you get a viewfinder with one, not a
  135. 4:36viewfinder with the other, but better
  136. 4:38video with the V. I if I was going to
  137. 4:41choose between one of them, R50V feels
  138. 4:43like the better value to me because it
  139. 4:45has better video features like Clog 3.
  140. 4:48It can go longer without overheating.
  141. 4:50Yes, you lose the viewfinder, but in my
  142. 4:53opinion, that's not a massive trade-off
  143. 4:55if you still want to take photos because
  144. 4:57you get the screen, which is similar to
  145. 5:00an EVF. Anyways,
  146. 5:01>> can I be honest? The amount of times
  147. 5:03that I've used the R50V and gone like
  148. 5:06>> gone like this.
  149. 5:07>> I've done that with the PowerShot V1.
  150. 5:09I'm like, "Oh, there's no viewfinder
  151. 5:10here."
  152. 5:11>> Yeah,
  153. 5:11>> Jared Poland wants a viewfinder. He'd be
  154. 5:14very not happy about me or you saying
  155. 5:17that. So R50 and R50V budget friendly
  156. 5:20APS-C, but if you are budget friendly
  157. 5:23entry level for full-frame, you're
  158. 5:25looking at the Canon RP,
  159. 5:27>> which is one of the first mirrorless
  160. 5:28cameras that Canon ever made.
  161. 5:30>> And it's still in production, which
  162. 5:32means you could do the same sort of
  163. 5:33thing where maybe you have like a
  164. 5:34$1,500, $1,600, $1,700 budget. You pay
  165. 5:38what is it like $750
  166. 5:41for the camera depending on if you get
  167. 5:42it on sale. Pair that with a 24 to 105
  168. 5:44and you have a really solid combination
  169. 5:47for photo. Maybe not so much for video
  170. 5:49because you don't get log. You don't get
  171. 5:51as many features as you would with some
  172. 5:52of these higherend cameras, but we'll
  173. 5:54talk about those video features in just
  174. 5:56a bit. There are some downsides to the
  175. 5:58RP though because it was one of Canon's
  176. 6:00first tries. They learned a lot from the
  177. 6:03R and the RP.
  178. 6:04>> Not the best autofocus.
  179. 6:06>> Yeah, it uses the Digic 8 processor.
  180. 6:08>> So older, slower. When Canon released
  181. 6:11the original R six, which we have here,
  182. 6:14not currently in production anymore.
  183. 6:15That one's been retired, and the R5,
  184. 6:17which is still in production, again,
  185. 6:18we'll talk about that one in a bit.
  186. 6:20Those cameras really made an improvement
  187. 6:22on the R and the RP. And if you've tried
  188. 6:25any of those cameras and you even try
  189. 6:27the original R six and you you go into
  190. 6:29the autofocus, it is like night and day
  191. 6:32difference.
  192. 6:32>> As sort of an honorable mention, we have
  193. 6:34the PowersShot V1.
  194. 6:35>> We have two of them.
  195. 6:36>> We we each have one. It's a little bit
  196. 6:38different than any other camera on this
  197. 6:40list because it's not a typical
  198. 6:42interchangeable lens camera. This is an
  199. 6:44interesting one because
  200. 6:45>> no viewfinder.
  201. 6:45>> No viewfinder, but you do actually get
  202. 6:48some really powerful video features
  203. 6:49considering how small this is. It's got
  204. 6:51a built-in fan so it doesn't overheat
  205. 6:53very easily. It has clog 3 4K 10 bit in
  206. 6:56this little camera.
  207. 6:57>> Holy man, you know all the specs, don't
  208. 6:59you?
  209. 6:59>> It does.
  210. 6:59>> Did you know that it has the same
  211. 7:01autofocusing system as the Canon R six
  212. 7:03Mark II?
  213. 7:04>> Yeah. DIC X processor in this which
  214. 7:06makes it super capable.
  215. 7:08>> So I like this a lot as a casual camera
  216. 7:10and a supplementary camera.
  217. 7:12>> You can fit it in your pocket.
  218. 7:13>> You can fit it in your pocket and you
  219. 7:15can even color match it pretty easily to
  220. 7:18>> Is it in frame? Hold on.
  221. 7:19>> Yeah. Yeah. Oh, yep.
  222. 7:20>> No, that one.
  223. 7:21>> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You're good there.
  224. 7:22Yeah. So, it's shoots high quality video
  225. 7:24that you can match pretty easily to
  226. 7:27Canon's more professional cameras. I
  227. 7:28wouldn't necessarily recommend this if
  228. 7:30it's your only camera, unless you really
  229. 7:32love the point andoot form factor. Plus,
  230. 7:34it's at a much higher price point than
  231. 7:36something like the R50V, which is a lot
  232. 7:39more versatile of a camera. I think if
  233. 7:41you are in the market for a vlog
  234. 7:43friendly camera and you never want to
  235. 7:45change your lens, the V1 has that
  236. 7:48built-in lens. Now, you might want to
  237. 7:50compare it to something like a Sony ZV1
  238. 7:52Mark II, but the Canon by most measures
  239. 7:57beats it out on the video spec side. The
  240. 7:59Sony does have a slightly lower aperture
  241. 8:02lens. I think it goes down to like f1.8
  242. 8:04or something like that, whereas the
  243. 8:05Canon goes down to f/2.8. But still very
  244. 8:09capable, a great sensor, a great
  245. 8:11processor, and a great option if you
  246. 8:14want something small, lightweight, and
  247. 8:15compact. One option that's not on the
  248. 8:17table. Now, we've talked about the R50
  249. 8:19and the R50V, but you could step up to
  250. 8:22something like an R10. The big
  251. 8:24difference between a 50 and a 10 is that
  252. 8:27you're going to get more control. So,
  253. 8:29you get a joystick on the 10. I believe
  254. 8:31you get a rear dial to like tweak all of
  255. 8:34your settings.
  256. 8:34>> You get a viewfinder,
  257. 8:35>> so it's a little bit nicer in your
  258. 8:36hands,
  259. 8:37>> a little more photocentric.
  260. 8:38>> It's a little bit more Oh, definitely
  261. 8:40more photocentric than the V. But if you
  262. 8:42do have a little bit more budget and
  263. 8:43you're like, I want something that's
  264. 8:45just a little bit more substantial
  265. 8:47without going crazy, I think that is the
  266. 8:49market that the 10 is for. But you could
  267. 8:53also step up to something like an R8 for
  268. 8:57a couple hundred more, again depending
  269. 8:59on sale, and get a full-frame camera.
  270. 9:01>> I think the R10 is in a tricky price
  271. 9:04point because you can go a little bit
  272. 9:05cheaper and actually get more video
  273. 9:07features with the R50V if that's
  274. 9:09something you're looking for. And then
  275. 9:11you can also go a little bit more
  276. 9:12expensive and get something like the R8
  277. 9:14full capabilities
  278. 9:15>> with fullframe.
  279. 9:16>> And then a fun fact is that the R8
  280. 9:19actually has the same internals and the
  281. 9:21same sensor as the R six Mark I. Is this
  282. 9:24the two? That is the original. There's
  283. 9:27too many cameras on the table. But the R
  284. 9:29six2, the PowersShot V1, and then the R8
  285. 9:33kind of sits in between. So if you So
  286. 9:36for some people this is actually going
  287. 9:37to be a disadvantage. The uh R8 has no
  288. 9:40IBIS, no inbody image stabilization,
  289. 9:42which means it might be a little bit
  290. 9:44trickier for photos. You won't be able
  291. 9:46to like do as slow a shutter speed, but
  292. 9:48for videos, some people like it because
  293. 9:50you don't get the jello walls.
  294. 9:52>> I think the R it's a nice option if
  295. 9:54full-frame is really important to you.
  296. 9:56But there's still a few features that
  297. 9:57were missing on it that would make it
  298. 9:59more geared towards professionals.
  299. 10:01>> Canon R7,
  300. 10:03have you tried one?
  301. 10:04>> I've briefly tried an R seven. The
  302. 10:07problem is the same with the R10 where
  303. 10:08it's a little bit of an in between
  304. 10:10camera and there are more expensive
  305. 10:12cameras, slightly more expensive cameras
  306. 10:13that have better features and then
  307. 10:15slightly less expensive cameras that
  308. 10:18might be again like the R8.
  309. 10:20>> It's at an interesting point because
  310. 10:21it's the first camera in this lineup
  311. 10:23that I would consider to be a truly
  312. 10:25professional professional camera
  313. 10:27>> camera because we have things now like
  314. 10:29the fullsize batteries and dual SD card
  315. 10:32slots which is very important when
  316. 10:33you're getting paid for your work.
  317. 10:35>> IBIS. ibis as well.
  318. 10:36>> It is the first camera in Canon's lineup
  319. 10:39to have inbody image stabilization. Dual
  320. 10:42card slots for safety and redundancy.
  321. 10:44>> Very important. I think the problem is a
  322. 10:46lot of people conflate full-frame with
  323. 10:49professional and crop sensor with entry
  324. 10:52level. While that sometimes is the case,
  325. 10:54we usually see full-frame sensors in the
  326. 10:56more high-end cameras. Crop sensor isn't
  327. 10:59inherently unprofessional or worse
  328. 11:01quality. If you had a choice between the
  329. 11:03Canon R seven and the Canon R8 and they
  330. 11:06cost the exact same price, which one
  331. 11:09would you buy?
  332. 11:09>> If they're the exact same price, I think
  333. 11:11I'm going with the R seven specifically
  334. 11:14because it has dual SD card slots. I
  335. 11:16charge money for a lot of the things I
  336. 11:18do. And it's important to me that I know
  337. 11:21as soon as I shoot, I have a copy and
  338. 11:23I'm not going to just lose that footage
  339. 11:26that someone's paying me for because of
  340. 11:28an SD card error.
  341. 11:29>> I just want my fulls size batteries.
  342. 11:31Yeah, that too. Does it use like the V1
  343. 11:33batteries? Is it like these little guys
  344. 11:34or is it something different?
  345. 11:35>> I believe it is those. Hold on. Where's
  346. 11:37the R8?
  347. 11:37>> These are the E7.
  348. 11:39>> Here's the problem. Yeah, look at this.
  349. 11:40Look at this. This is the problem.
  350. 11:48Nope. Wrong way.
  351. 11:53First try. Exactly. But yeah, this is
  352. 11:56the challenge with the R8 is that the
  353. 11:58batteries are smaller. Uh, apparently
  354. 12:00they're harder to figure out which way
  355. 12:02>> they are. I've noticed that with the V1,
  356. 12:05this is a whole side tangent rant. These
  357. 12:07batteries are perfectly symmetric.
  358. 12:10They're they're fully rectangular. So,
  359. 12:12you take something like a Canon, that
  360. 12:15one's empty. So, you take something like
  361. 12:17a regular Canon battery, it's got the
  362. 12:19curve to it. So, you know, immediately
  363. 12:22you see the little shiny thing on the
  364. 12:23battery and you see the curve and you
  365. 12:24know, I know it goes in like that. I
  366. 12:26don't have to look at it. I can just do
  367. 12:28it. But these look reversible both side
  368. 12:32to side and upside down. And I I swear
  369. 12:36every single time I put one of these
  370. 12:38batteries in my V1, I put it in the
  371. 12:40wrong way. And I take it out and I go,
  372. 12:42"Oh, I must have done that wrong." And I
  373. 12:43flip it around and I put it in again and
  374. 12:45it's still the wrong way and I go, "Oh,
  375. 12:46I must have done that wrong again."
  376. 12:48>> All right. Well, I've got a challenge
  377. 12:49for you.
  378. 12:49>> All right.
  379. 12:50>> Close your eyes.
  380. 12:51>> Yep.
  381. 12:51>> And I'm going to hand you this uh Canon
  382. 12:54LP17 battery.
  383. 12:56>> Oh, boy. And you need to put it in your
  384. 12:58camera without looking first try.
  385. 13:01>> Oh god. Okay.
  386. 13:03[Music]
  387. 13:04Uh,
  388. 13:06[Music]
  389. 13:08nope. Nope. That didn't work.
  390. 13:09>> Hold it up so they can see.
  391. 13:11>> Uh, okay. So, oh. Oh, no. See, you think
  392. 13:15it's going.
  393. 13:15>> You put it in the wrong way,
  394. 13:16>> but it doesn't go in all the way. So,
  395. 13:18then I flip it around. Okay. No, this is
  396. 13:20the right direction.
  397. 13:22>> Still get another Wait, wait. Then I go
  398. 13:25this. So that it has to be has to be
  399. 13:27this way. Boom. Ready to shoot.
  400. 13:31>> Just saying if you had a photo shoot in
  401. 13:32the dark and you had like 5 seconds to
  402. 13:35change uh your battery, you would
  403. 13:36probably be missing the shot.
  404. 13:38>> That was really funny.
  405. 13:38>> Where's the real Where's the
  406. 13:39>> This is my battery, right?
  407. 13:40>> Oh yeah, that is
  408. 13:41>> I literally I can't even
  409. 13:42>> Hold on. Which camera has a battery in
  410. 13:44it?
  411. 13:44>> Uh oh, yours. None of these have
  412. 13:45batteries. Oh my gosh. Now do it with
  413. 13:48the regular Canyon batteries. First take
  414. 13:50close your eyes. There's only two ways
  415. 13:51this can go in cuz I can feel the curve
  416. 13:53of it.
  417. 13:55We either got this way,
  418. 13:57which doesn't work, so we go this way.
  419. 14:00Done. That was like 5 seconds versus 30.
  420. 14:04All right, it's Anony's turn. This is
  421. 14:05the R8. Oh my gosh. Please. Okay. And
  422. 14:09this is an LP17 battery.
  423. 14:12>> Okay. Can you put this in the camera
  424. 14:14without looking?
  425. 14:17[Music]
  426. 14:21To be clear, that was pure luck.
  427. 14:24>> I don't know, man. I just got the
  428. 14:26skills. What? We got the playback. That
  429. 14:28was very coincidental.
  430. 14:30>> That was I didn't think that was going
  431. 14:30to happen.
  432. 14:31>> I didn't think that was going to happen
  433. 14:32either. Here's your battery.
  434. 14:33>> You know, it actually worked out
  435. 14:34perfectly terrible for me in the other
  436. 14:36way because I tried every single
  437. 14:38direction. Now, we've got the R six Mark
  438. 14:40I.
  439. 14:41>> Okay.
  440. 14:42>> And an LP E6P battery.
  441. 14:44>> Okay. Go.
  442. 14:45>> Go.
  443. 14:50No.
  444. 14:52Yeah.
  445. 14:53So, the next camera on the list is the
  446. 14:55R6 Mark II. Now, who do you think this
  447. 14:59is for?
  448. 15:00>> Well, the 6 series has always been for
  449. 15:03the proumer or the enthusiast, and it is
  450. 15:06positioned as a value option, meaning
  451. 15:09you're getting a lot of what you're
  452. 15:10getting in a 5 series, but in a less
  453. 15:13expensive package. So, this is the bang
  454. 15:15forbuck camera.
  455. 15:16>> Basically, if you're someone who who
  456. 15:18whose criteria is I want the best value
  457. 15:22for my money, then you're going right to
  458. 15:24an R six or an R six3 and then don't ask
  459. 15:28any more questions. Like you you can end
  460. 15:30your search right here. Now, the
  461. 15:32compromises with an R six series,
  462. 15:35>> you got some IO differences. You have
  463. 15:37the micro HDMI, and you can't use the
  464. 15:40screen if you have a monitor plugged in,
  465. 15:41which I don't hear a lot of people talk
  466. 15:43about, but is a very significant video
  467. 15:45feature in my opinion.
  468. 15:47>> You're getting a polycarbonate body
  469. 15:49versus a magnesium alloy body. You're
  470. 15:51getting in the case of the R six2 SD
  471. 15:54cards where versus the 5 which has a CF
  472. 15:57Express and an SD card. However, a lot
  473. 16:01of those differences are minimized when
  474. 16:03you step up to an R six Mark III, which
  475. 16:06we also have here, which has made the
  476. 16:08whole comparison between the six line
  477. 16:10and the 5 line a lot more interesting
  478. 16:12because the R six Mark III bridges the
  479. 16:14gap of a lot of the differences between
  480. 16:17the two lineups and is really going to
  481. 16:19make some people think, do I even need
  482. 16:21the R5 Mark II or is the R six Mark III
  483. 16:24going to solve all my problems? So, the
  484. 16:26three solves the in-out issue because we
  485. 16:28now have a full-size HDMI. It still
  486. 16:30doesn't have the flash sync port at the
  487. 16:34front. It doesn't have that top screen
  488. 16:36that is the digital mode dial on the R5,
  489. 16:39which a lot of professionals are going
  490. 16:40to like. Again, that is a feature that
  491. 16:42it is reserved for the 5, the R3, and
  492. 16:46the R1, which again are going to be the
  493. 16:49unquestioned professionals choice. But
  494. 16:54if you need a second camera body, like
  495. 16:55right now, what is your combination of
  496. 16:57cameras?
  497. 16:58>> Right now, I am using the R5 Mark II as
  498. 17:00my main camera and then my R six Mark
  499. 17:02III as my B camera, both for photo and
  500. 17:05video for both of them. And the thing
  501. 17:07that is great about that is now with the
  502. 17:09R six3 solving some of these problems
  503. 17:11like clog 2 and it has a CF express slot
  504. 17:15which is not only nice because of the
  505. 17:16faster transfer speeds but that also
  506. 17:19opens up a lot more different video
  507. 17:21options and formats that just are not
  508. 17:23available on the R six Mark II. If
  509. 17:24you're a working professional and you
  510. 17:26have the money to spend I think the best
  511. 17:28combination right now is the R52 and the
  512. 17:30R six Mark III. But if you're someone
  513. 17:32who is that person who is a proumer who
  514. 17:36wants the best without having to shell
  515. 17:38out maybe like $1,000 more for a 5
  516. 17:40series, the R six Mark III is going to
  517. 17:43be your best choice. Now, some people
  518. 17:44will wonder R six Mark III versus R six
  519. 17:47Mark II, and I think both of us are
  520. 17:48going to be doing videos on that
  521. 17:49separately, so make sure you're
  522. 17:51subscribed to both of us. But to give
  523. 17:54you a highle summary, what would you
  524. 17:56say? Rix 3 versus RX2. I would say
  525. 17:58essentially if you own neither of these
  526. 18:00cameras right now, the R six Mark III is
  527. 18:03about $500 US more for the video
  528. 18:06features. If you are a primary video
  529. 18:09shooter, I think these new features are
  530. 18:11absolutely worth it.
  531. 18:12>> Rix3,
  532. 18:13>> for the R six3, definitely
  533. 18:15>> any of the cameras on this table are
  534. 18:17going to be awesome for photos.
  535. 18:18Obviously, the more expensive you go,
  536. 18:20the better it's going to be. Even like
  537. 18:22the powers shot like can take although I
  538. 18:24wouldn't recommend it as like a
  539. 18:26professional camera, you can take good
  540. 18:27photos on it.
  541. 18:28>> Pause a second cuz I think my doorbell
  542. 18:29rang.
  543. 18:30>> Entertain the camera, Will.
  544. 18:32>> Anony's got a package. So, I guess it's
  545. 18:34just you and me right now. Um, this
  546. 18:35couch is a little bit hard. It's got a
  547. 18:37nice color to it. And also, what on
  548. 18:39earth is this? This is a nice studio,
  549. 18:41though. He's got some cool stuff going
  550. 18:42on in here. I'll give him that. Check
  551. 18:43out all these cameras. We have nine
  552. 18:46cameras on the table right here. No, 10
  553. 18:48cameras on the table right here. And
  554. 18:50then we have another three recording
  555. 18:51this. We got R six Mark III, R5 Mark II,
  556. 18:54R six Mark III. This is too many
  557. 18:56cameras. This is more cameras than
  558. 18:58anyone ever needs. Does it make anyone
  559. 19:00else nervous when you see the photos or
  560. 19:03videos of like the B-roll of the camera,
  561. 19:05but the sensor's open? Why are we do I
  562. 19:06don't want dust on my I'm not doing
  563. 19:08thumbnails like that. I don't want dust
  564. 19:09on my sensor. What else can I do?
  565. 19:10There's a Hasselblad on that shelf. I
  566. 19:12wonder if Anthony would notice.
  567. 19:20Where are we? Back to business.
  568. 19:21>> I I entertained the camera while you
  569. 19:22were going.
  570. 19:23>> Oh no.
  571. 19:23>> Can a $1,000 camera make you money?
  572. 19:26>> Yeah, but say it again with authority.
  573. 19:27>> Can a $1,000 camera make you money?
  574. 19:30>> I think any of these cameras on the
  575. 19:31table. We have everything ranging from
  576. 19:33the V1 to the R8 to the R50V to the R
  577. 19:36six213,
  578. 19:39R52. Any one of these cameras can make
  579. 19:41you money. It's not about the value of
  580. 19:44the camera or even the features of the
  581. 19:46camera. It really is about how you use
  582. 19:48it. I've used the PowersShot V1 in a
  583. 19:52top- down setup rig because it's super
  584. 19:54light and gets me the shot that I needed
  585. 19:56to get. Now, could I do that with an
  586. 19:58R52? Yes. But as soon as I attach a
  587. 20:01heavier lens, maybe I can't rig it up in
  588. 20:03the way that I need to. I made money
  589. 20:05back in the day with my T3. Were the
  590. 20:07results as good as an R5 Mark II? No.
  591. 20:09But did people still pay me for them?
  592. 20:11Were they okay? Sure. The first ever
  593. 20:14photo gig that I did was literally on my
  594. 20:16Canon Rebel T1i. I bought an 8
  595. 20:18millimeter fisheye lens and stitched
  596. 20:20together a whole bunch of 360 panoramic
  597. 20:23images. And I will tell this story to
  598. 20:24the day I die because that paid for the
  599. 20:27camera multiple times over, allowed me
  600. 20:29to upgrade my camera, allowed me to buy
  601. 20:31a telephoto lens, a wide-angle lens, and
  602. 20:33then go shoot whatever I wanted to
  603. 20:34because photography wasn't my main
  604. 20:36thing. It was just a side thing. And so
  605. 20:38if you're someone who is looking at a
  606. 20:40camera, spending $1,000, $2,000, or
  607. 20:42maybe even $3,000 on the top-of-the-line
  608. 20:45R six, R5, any one of these cameras can
  609. 20:48make you money, whether as a full-time
  610. 20:50or a part-time professional. Boom.
  611. 20:52>> Boom. Short form content.
  612. 20:54>> Short form content.
  613. 20:55>> That's how it's done.
  614. 20:55>> So, we have the R5 and the R52. I think
  615. 20:58we're going to group them together.
  616. 20:59>> Yeah, they're pretty similar
  617. 21:00>> because the R5 series is for a working
  618. 21:03professional. your wedding
  619. 21:04photographers, your event photographers,
  620. 21:06photojournalism,
  621. 21:08product photography.
  622. 21:09>> These are the cameras that you only have
  623. 21:11if you're making a good living off of
  624. 21:14your cameras or you have way too much
  625. 21:16extra money sitting around.
  626. 21:18>> If you're uncle, you know, the rich
  627. 21:20uncle, and you got the money to blow $45
  628. 21:22$5,000 and go buy a bunch of RF lenses,
  629. 21:25by all means, go blow your money now.
  630. 21:29>> Use our links in the description.
  631. 21:30>> Use the links down in the description.
  632. 21:32Mine wills, whatever. We'll put our
  633. 21:33favorite cameras from this list down
  634. 21:35there. The 5 series has a better build
  635. 21:37quality. It has usually the latest
  636. 21:41functionality. So, in the case of the R5
  637. 21:43Mark II, you're getting clog 2. You're
  638. 21:44getting the latest autofocus. Although,
  639. 21:46right now, we don't have open gate with
  640. 21:48the R six3 does. So, that is a problem
  641. 21:52if you're deciding which camera is right
  642. 21:54for you. If you are someone who shoots
  643. 21:56social content or shoots hybrid video,
  644. 21:59the R six3 does offer some advantages.
  645. 22:03Right now, I still would lean towards
  646. 22:06the R5 Mark II. But a more compelling
  647. 22:10comparison would be the R six Mark III
  648. 22:14versus the original R5 because right now
  649. 22:16>> these come in at the same price.
  650. 22:17>> They're roughly the same price. There is
  651. 22:19a slight difference depending on sale,
  652. 22:22but if you had to pick,
  653. 22:25>> I don't know. I would lean towards the R
  654. 22:26six Mark III because I think I am
  655. 22:30primarily shooting videos with like some
  656. 22:32photos as well. And this just is a
  657. 22:35better video camera. We don't have a
  658. 22:37record limit. We still have the CF
  659. 22:39Express card, so we're not losing out on
  660. 22:41anything there. We can do open gate.
  661. 22:44>> We have the smart hot shoe. We got 7K
  662. 22:46open gate raw. Now, if you're just
  663. 22:48shooting photos, then the question
  664. 22:49becomes, is 45 megapixels more important
  665. 22:52to you, or is things like pre-ontinuous
  666. 22:55shooting more important to you? I would
  667. 22:57say if you're a landscape photographer
  668. 22:58and you want the most resolution, R5
  669. 23:01original makes the most sense. I think
  670. 23:03if you want the latest functionality and
  671. 23:06the latest features, then the R six Mark
  672. 23:09III probably makes more sense. And the
  673. 23:11fact that you get that full size HDMI
  674. 23:12means this is going to be a camera that
  675. 23:14a lot of people are going to want to rig
  676. 23:15up. In fact, right now we've got your R
  677. 23:18six Mark III.
  678. 23:19>> Yeah.
  679. 23:19>> rigged up right there. That R six3 is
  680. 23:22rigged up right there. And the R52. So,
  681. 23:24we're recording on the latest cameras.
  682. 23:26And then these are just
  683. 23:27>> I didn't even realize the original R5
  684. 23:28had micro HDMI. This is literally the
  685. 23:32worst port of any ports to ever be
  686. 23:34invented. It is terrible and should
  687. 23:36never have been on any professional
  688. 23:38camera. So, I'm very glad we've moved
  689. 23:39away from that. I'm going to group the
  690. 23:40R52 and the R3 and the R1 together
  691. 23:43because we're getting to a point where
  692. 23:45if you have that money to spend, you
  693. 23:46probably know what camera you want. But
  694. 23:48for those who are curious, the R52, the
  695. 23:52R3, and the R1 all have stacked sensors.
  696. 23:58So, they're faster sensors, which means
  697. 24:00you have better video readout speeds,
  698. 24:03less rolling shutter. In the case of the
  699. 24:05R52,
  700. 24:07you're getting a 14bit electronic
  701. 24:10shutter. Actually, same thing with the
  702. 24:11R3 and the R1. Full 14-bit electronic
  703. 24:14shutter. Which means if you are a fast
  704. 24:15photographer who wants to shoot action
  705. 24:18sports, motor sports, anything where you
  706. 24:20we need to freeze the frame at 1/4,000
  707. 24:2418,000th of a second, then those cameras
  708. 24:26are going to be the ones that you want
  709. 24:27to go with. If you're watching this
  710. 24:28video, I think it's safe to say these
  711. 24:30are probably not the cameras you're
  712. 24:32going to be picking at because the
  713. 24:33people who need these cameras already
  714. 24:35know that they need them.
  715. 24:35>> Is it actually overheating?
  716. 24:37>> I might have to change.
  717. 24:37>> You heard it here first, folks. The R
  718. 24:39six Mark III R3
  719. 24:42>> better overheating than the R52,
  720. 24:43apparently.
  721. 24:44>> Somehow Canon managed to make the R six
  722. 24:46Mark III more thermally efficient, which
  723. 24:48is incredible and another testament to
  724. 24:51how how great this camera is.
  725. 24:53>> Kind of crazy because the R52 has the
  726. 24:55vent holes in it. So, you would think
  727. 24:57even just passively it would be a little
  728. 24:59cooler.
  729. 24:59>> Um, I think we should do a open gate hot
  730. 25:01take.
  731. 25:02>> Open gate hot take. Like we literally
  732. 25:03make the cameras hot and that's the take
  733. 25:06through open gate.
  734. 25:09So, I've got a hot take. I like the R3
  735. 25:14more than I like the R1.
  736. 25:17>> Why?
  737. 25:18>> Because the R3 has a more compact
  738. 25:20battery. Like the way it is, it's just
  739. 25:23more compact.
  740. 25:24>> Okay. So, the R1 is like big chungus,
  741. 25:26right? Like, it's the same size as the
  742. 25:29original 1D. And I don't know why it
  743. 25:31needs to be that size. Like, I
  744. 25:33understand the batteries. You get more
  745. 25:35out of it and there's more grip. And
  746. 25:37maybe if you're shooting with a super
  747. 25:38telephoto, there's more to hold on to,
  748. 25:41but the problem I have with the Canon R1
  749. 25:43as professional and as fast, I think
  750. 25:46it's got like a three 3 millisecond
  751. 25:48readout speed, right? Not quite as fast
  752. 25:50as the Sony A9 Mark III, which has
  753. 25:52global shutter, but still no compromises
  754. 25:54on image quality with the Canon R1. My
  755. 25:57challenge is that I feel like it didn't
  756. 25:59need to be that big because it I can't
  757. 26:01fit it in my camera bag.
  758. 26:02>> It's It's like so tall and so fat.
  759. 26:04>> Some people just like bigger cameras.
  760. 26:06>> Some people like it fat,
  761. 26:09>> I don't think.
  762. 26:10>> Some people like it chunky.
  763. 26:12>> I don't know. Some people like the
  764. 26:13bigger camera. Like some people still
  765. 26:14shoot with DSLRs because they like the
  766. 26:16bigger.
  767. 26:17>> I don't believe that.
  768. 26:20Maybe they're just broke. Jessica
  769. 26:21Klesie, that's who. That's the only
  770. 26:23person I know. Upgrade to an R5 Mark II.
  771. 26:25Jessica, this is the most complete
  772. 26:28Canon's camera lineup has ever been.
  773. 26:31There's never been a better time to be a
  774. 26:33Canon shooter. However, we have
  775. 26:36competitors on the market. And if you
  776. 26:38are in the price point of an R six or
  777. 26:41even an R5, you might look at something
  778. 26:44like the brand new Sony A75, which I
  779. 26:47don't have yet, or the Nikon ZR. Both
  780. 26:49have faster partially stacked sensors
  781. 26:53than the R six Mark III. The Nikon has
  782. 26:55RAW, Nikon Raw and Red Raw. The Sony
  783. 26:58does not. The Sony and the Nikon do not
  784. 27:01have opengate. So Canon right now is in
  785. 27:03the open gate lineup. Now, there is a
  786. 27:05question over IBIS and who does it best
  787. 27:08and Canon wobbles and blah blah blah
  788. 27:09blah blah, but opengate, do we need open
  789. 27:13gate? I am glad that open gate is in the
  790. 27:16R six Mark III and I hope more cameras
  791. 27:18get it, but honestly, I think it's
  792. 27:20overrated. OpenGate is cool, but
  793. 27:24particularly on the R six Mark III, we
  794. 27:26can only do open gate in 7K right now,
  795. 27:28which is almost going
  796. 27:30>> What's wrong with that? What? That means
  797. 27:32I get 7K this way and 4K this way. So, I
  798. 27:37can do 4K vertical content.
  799. 27:38>> I'll tell you what's wrong for YouTube.
  800. 27:40>> I'll tell you what's wrong with that.
  801. 27:41Anthony file sizes because we're talking
  802. 27:43about almost a four times increase in
  803. 27:46the bit rate on these files from 4K,
  804. 27:48which means you're going to be filling
  805. 27:50up your hard drives faster. And
  806. 27:51personally, I don't like to delete
  807. 27:52footage that often. And all four
  808. 27:54>> well, you just need to shoot better. You
  809. 27:56need to shoot so you never miss. What
  810. 27:58you need to do is if you don't have open
  811. 28:00gate, shoot a little bit wider on your
  812. 28:02lens or step back a little bit with the
  813. 28:05camera and that's going to give you a
  814. 28:06similar amount of headroom. We're not
  815. 28:08getting a crazy 4x3 open gate here where
  816. 28:11it's basically a square. We're getting
  817. 28:15step back with the camera. We're only
  818. 28:17getting a little bit of extra room on
  819. 28:19the top and bottom. It would
  820. 28:20>> you know what happens when you step
  821. 28:21back, right? You lose depth of field.
  822. 28:23You lose the compression.
  823. 28:25>> Yeah.
  824. 28:26>> Yeah. Then you zoom in and
  825. 28:27>> Yeah, it's not that easy. Look, how do I
  826. 28:29step back if I'm against a wall?
  827. 28:31>> I don't know. Maybe just uh frame it up
  828. 28:33right the first time.
  829. 28:35>> Do you even own a wideangle lens?
  830. 28:37>> Oh, I no 24 mm.
  831. 28:39>> He doesn't even own a wideangle lens.
  832. 28:40>> Sounds like a skill issue to me.
  833. 28:41>> Sounds like a pro a money problem to
  834. 28:43you. Can buy an R52 and an R 63 but
  835. 28:48can't buy a 15 to 35. What do we tell
  836. 28:50people? Glass is more important than
  837. 28:53cameras. And what does Will do? He sells
  838. 28:56his R six and he's about to sell his R
  839. 28:58six too, but
  840. 29:0035.
  841. 29:00>> How many cameras do you own, Anthony?
  842. 29:02Let's talk.
  843. 29:03>> Let's talk about GL glass versus
  844. 29:05>> Okay, one of at least two of them on on
  845. 29:07the table don't belong to me. So
  846. 29:08>> that's fair.
  847. 29:09>> Like six. One, two, three. I don't need
  848. 29:13an R1. I don't need an R3. It's nice.
  849. 29:17The R3 is nice.
  850. 29:18>> I've held it. feels. I think it's one of
  851. 29:19the nicest feeling cameras Canon makes
  852. 29:22in in your hand, but I think it sits in
  853. 29:24a really weird place because it does you
  854. 29:28either you could either get the R1 or
  855. 29:30get the R5 depending on what's important
  856. 29:31to you and that would solve most of your
  857. 29:33problems.
  858. 29:35Camera pyramid.
  859. 29:38But what if you turn it this way here?
  860. 29:40Then you have like more of a
  861. 29:42>> Oh, I see.
  862. 29:48Tada.
  863. 29:50Everyone's in the comments. Can I have a
  864. 29:52camera?
  865. 29:52>> We need every single one of these. Don't
  866. 29:54you understand that?
  867. 29:55>> Plus the three that we're recording on.
  868. 29:57>> I think this is a good way to wrap it
  869. 29:58up. If the current can lineup existed as
  870. 30:00it is today, when you started content
  871. 30:02creation,
  872. 30:04what camera would you go with?
  873. 30:06>> The problem is I could be someone
  874. 30:08starting social media with no money and
  875. 30:10I could be starting social media with a
  876. 30:11little bit of a budget because I my
  877. 30:12default would be all about an R six Mark
  878. 30:14III. Like that would that would be the
  879. 30:16easy answer. I'm thinking about think
  880. 30:17back to when you bought your original R
  881. 30:20six. Okay.
  882. 30:20>> At that point in your career.
  883. 30:22>> So my first mirrorless camera was an R
  884. 30:25six. Uh actually it was my first
  885. 30:26full-frame camera. So I went from crop
  886. 30:29uh APS-C DSLR to full-frame mirrorless,
  887. 30:34which was a big jump. And I went
  888. 30:36straight to an R six because an R5 I
  889. 30:39couldn't justify. One for the cost and
  890. 30:41two I didn't need all those extra
  891. 30:42features.
  892. 30:43>> Same for me. So, if I was starting over
  893. 30:45today, I would do the exact same thing.
  894. 30:47I would get an R six Mark III because it
  895. 30:49is that value option. Now, for you as a
  896. 30:52working professional, if I gave you the
  897. 30:54same question, I I feel like I know the
  898. 30:56answer, but if you had to start over
  899. 30:58today with all of the Canon cameras that
  900. 31:00are available, which one would you go
  901. 31:02with? I hate to have the same answer
  902. 31:03because I it's a little bit boring, but
  903. 31:05I have to say the R six Mark III, it's
  904. 31:07just the value versus the features that
  905. 31:09it has are just too good. And it has
  906. 31:11those professional things like dual SD
  907. 31:13card slots and clog 2.
  908. 31:15>> And you also had the R six.
  909. 31:17>> And I also had the original R6.
  910. 31:18>> The R six. So we're we were kind of in
  911. 31:19the same boat where
  912. 31:20>> I started my professional career with
  913. 31:22the R six.
  914. 31:22>> But if we took it down one more notch
  915. 31:24and said you had maybe like $2,000 to
  916. 31:26spend. You can either get a really nice
  917. 31:28camera body and an okay lens or an
  918. 31:32lens and an okay camera body. What are
  919. 31:34you doing? What's your combination
  920. 31:36>> for something like social content? I
  921. 31:38think cheaper camera, more expensive
  922. 31:40glass because that is going to give you
  923. 31:42the best results. So something like the
  924. 31:44R50V or the R10 and a nicer lens is
  925. 31:48going to be a more significant impact to
  926. 31:50your quality of your images.
  927. 31:52>> So something like this with a 15 to 35
  928. 31:55f.8.
  929. 31:56>> Yeah. Or maybe a prime like one of the
  930. 31:57VCM lenses.
  931. 31:58>> A nice prime 35 or 24 solid combination.
  932. 32:02I think if I was shooting
  933. 32:03professionally, I would go with the R
  934. 32:05seven and choose a cheaper lens to
  935. 32:08start.
  936. 32:09>> You could get the 28 to 70 f/2.8, the
  937. 32:11STM lens, or you get the wide angle
  938. 32:13equivalent,
  939. 32:15>> still get nice image quality
  940. 32:16>> because there's always the option if
  941. 32:18you're going for paid client work, that
  942. 32:20you rent a different lens if you're
  943. 32:23going for a specific project and you
  944. 32:25need something nicer, or you just do
  945. 32:27some paid work and save up for that next
  946. 32:29lens. But if you need more help deciding
  947. 32:31between all these cameras, I've actually
  948. 32:33put a summary, a spreadsheet together
  949. 32:36that shows you all of the major specs
  950. 32:38that we've talked about. You can find
  951. 32:39that linked down in the description
  952. 32:41along with my favorite camera and Will's
  953. 32:44favorite camera. Will, anything you need
  954. 32:46to add, Will?
  955. 32:48>> Uh, what do you say? Go shoot photos or
  956. 32:50something.
  957. 32:50>> We do, but then we go cover up the
  958. 32:51camera. But there's three cameras far
  959. 32:53away.
  960. 32:53>> So maybe I'll do this one, you do that.
  961. 32:54Can
  962. 32:54>> we throw something?
  963. 32:55>> Absolutely not. So until the next one,
  964. 32:58grab your camera,
  965. 33:00get out,
  966. 33:01>> go shoot some photos,
  967. 33:02>> and go shoot photos.
