    I currently own an M200 and there are a few things you must know!!!
    -It overheats after 30 minutes of recording so don't expect long videos.
    -Live streaming you'll need a camlink and dummy battery in order to use it. (it won't overheat if you have these)
    -Although you can change the aperture and ISO settings, this is still a grainy and somewhat blurry effect to backgrounds and shadows. I put it in 4k and it still slightly has it, it's just not as noticable.
    -If you are new to cameras you cannot get the wide angle lenses like Harris unless you have an EF adapter. Please be aware they can cost up to $150-$200 for a quality one.
    -Lastly, you won't really be able to really get good color correction on it. It's good but don't expect Alpha Gaming level of adjustment.
    I'm no camera pro so don't take my advice to heavily but I have run into those issues. However, if you get past all the minor details the M200 is an EXCELLENT starter camera. Besides the overheating and grainy shadows (Which nobody notices on a stream, just UA-cam), this camera allows for good versatility. Just don't expect to go vlogging all day without cool down breaks.
    Happy streaming.

      @motorheadkilling Рік тому +2

      1-Most cameras will overheat during long recording sessions however this isnt a problem for streaming because you arent recording anything, just displaying an image
      2-Pretty much all cameras will require a camlink too, some support liveview through usb but is pretty laggy and inconsistent. all 3 of this cameras also need a dummy battery
      3-Noise will always be present on shadows even while shooting at 100iso, thats why photographers will use "Fake darkness" for dark photoshoots
      4-This is a common problem with all of them really, sony's mount even tho is older is not THAT old so finding cheap lenses is kinda hard and the lumix mount is a thing of its own
      5-YOU CAN get pretty good color correction adjusting the camera white balance and not the obs settings, the canon software lets you create custom profiles on your pc and uploading them to your camera

    Great comparison of these top budget picks. I think all of these cameras work with the CamlInk 4K for streaming BUT, the Canon also works with Canon's beta streaming software (which is free) and which I can download right now. "Free" and "immediately available" are nice features that make me want to go with the M200.

    One of the nice things about the Lumix G7 / Micro-4-3rd is that one can improve the picture quality by mounting a SpeedBooster on it....I put a Viltrox EF-M2 on it and used a Tokina SD 11-16mm f2.8 (IF) DX II on it which mathematically makes it a 15.62-22.72mm with an f-stop of 1.988 (bringing more light to the sensor allowing to eliminate noise by using a lower ISO) and a DOF like 3.976 on FullFrame.....calculate xyz x 0.71 (Speedboost by this Viltrox) x 2 (for m43rd).....a very nice lens is also Sigma 18-35 f1.8

    I picked up an M50 for 700€, I'm super happy with it. Setting it up needed a bit more research, but i was able to make it work with OBS. U need to use manual focus to get rid of the square in the middle, and you need to use Canon's PC app, to keep the camera not turning off after 30min. But it works and its great for Vlogging. has an external mic jack. Its a combination of Lumix and m200 in the same package. I just wanted to point out if someone needs a camera that can work well for vlogging and streaming. *cheers*

    Would love to see the shot by shot comparison between the cameras on the exact same manual settings - and I'm actually curious of Canon has stunted the M200 like they do with some of their other entry level cameras by not offering a kelvin white balance selector, instead they have some weird graph looking thing that doesn't accomplish much. Being able to kelvin match your white balance on camera to your lights like the A5100 can will make a big difference.
    Also a thing to note about micro four thirds cameras is because of their smaller sensor size it doesn't have as much bokeh - what I mean by this is, say you have the Sony Sigma 16mm F1.4 lens. To get a lens with both the equivalent focal length that APS-C 16mm produces and the shallow depth of field that 1.4 produces, you would need a 12mm F1.1 lens.

    if you will have a youtube channel alongside doing streams, its much better to pick the Lumix g7 mostly due of the mic input, it really changes the game vs using the default mic from the camera, or it helps in skipping the process of using an external recorder and then sync the audio in post.

      Raising up an 8mo old comment haha: Harris said in the video that the 1/60 shutter speed at 60p is to get the most light in and since you're not a fast moving or constant moving object the 180 rule for video isn't a huge issue - and your camera is usually the PiP on your gameplay which further reduces what people would notice by running your shutter speed a little slower.

    As someone with an EOS camera, that "lens lock" is so when taking photographs, the press of the shutter button won't auto focus while trying to take the photo. its a focus lock essentially. It allows you to manually focus without having to worry about the camera ruining the perfectly focused shot.

    • @gayvendab6670
      @gayvendab6670 4 роки тому +1

      @AllenSeeAllenDo You leave the lens lock off while streaming as to have auto focus enabled but also have the option to leave the lens lock on while taking photos of close up objects so the camera doesn't focus the background when hitting the shutter button. You can have the lens lock on while taking videos or streaming as well, since it's a manual lock.

    Ive been using the G7 for video work for a while, after removing the jingly bits of course. one of the best features about it is that with a simple adaptor you can use any camera lens system and there is a plethora of m4/3 lenses for it already. the light weight factor is only a problem when balancing it on my glidecam where i have to add weight to the top for balance.

    A note to save some headaches regarding framerates on some of these cameras if you buy in a PAL region (like the UK). You may find they max out at 50fps instead of 60.
    The Sony A5100 will record at 25/50fps if set in PAL mode but change it to NTSC and you'll get the options of 30/60fps.
    The Lumix G7 will be stuck at 25/50fps but can be unlocked to 30/60 with some secret button presses (Google it).
    Don't know about the Canon but I did own the M50 and that had all the options without having to mess around.
    If you get "flicker" from electric lights after changing to 30/60 fps modes then just alter your shutter speed manually to be a multiple of 50 (so 50 or 100 usually). Online guides will say its the framerate and thats why its limited to 50 in PAL regions (to match the frequency of the electric supply) but it isn't, its the shutter speed that matters - by default its set to be a multiple of the framerate and thats why framerate often appears to "fix" the issue :)
    I've learned this through bitter experience as a UK dweller who has bought cameras based on reviews from the US where they have the luxury of all cameras having 30/60fps as standard, perfect for online video :)

    That lens lock I have found is for top down shots. Usually you want your lens at its widest angle shooting top down, but some lenses like to slowly slide into becoming telephoto due to gravity. I have no idea if that's the official use, but when I've tried top down shots for certain content, that lens lock has saved me a ton of headaches.

    I keep asking people what's a good camera for someone with a budget and they keep saying, "Oh, get this one, get that one", and they're like $1300 or something. So thank you. $500 is still a little higher than I'd like, but it's better than 1-2 Grand.

    Really useful video & Review - Great Job, I was going to get the Canon M200 but then saw the Canon M50 with an extra Lens for a great price so i've gone for that. Sony was incredibly tempting too. I also wanted one that is compatible with the CamLink USB converter for Live Streaming, the A5100 is, but it does not list the M200 as compatible, another reason for getting the M50 instead, although i'd guess the M200 probably does work with CamLink ;-)

    I bought the Sony a5100 and I'm loving it! THOUGH I should let you all know that you'll want it in movie mode for it to auto focus better for streams, photo modes focus changes super often and is really messy for video and streams. If I talked or changed facial expressions it'll refocus which a lot of us wouldn't want as sensitive. Movie mode is better at a more subtle refocus and isn't as finicky

    The Sony a5100 has a bug that keeps the "soft skin" effect enabled if you output over HDMI regardless of your settings. This has been a thing since the camera first released and they just... never fixed it. I'd avoid the a5100 for this purpose.

    Nice job on the video, I didn't know the Canon M200 was good for streaming. The M50 has a ton of drawbacks like only semi-clean HDMI (AF has to be disabled to avoid a box showing up when it finds a face. It also won't stay on past 30 minutes unless it's attached to a computer through USB and then have their tethering app running in the background (just to keep the camera from shutting down after 30 minutes... lol).

    One question though: What are your thoughts about camcorders for streaming? At least in the EU most photo cameras (like in this video) are artifically restricted to a maximum video length of 29 minutes and 59 seconds (due to customs regulations). Not sure if this always affects the hdmi live view as well, but if so, all ot these cameras are out of the picture.

I want to do keyboard build videos for example, which usually takes upwards of 3 and 4 hours if not longer. I like that these cameras can continue to stream without turning off, my concern is battery life. I mean how long can they last on one charge? How can I plug them in and to what? I'll do some more research but I find this part of the streaming process often overlooked in a lot of these review videos.
