Good stuff! I started with 35mm film as a hobby and I bought my T3i about 6 years ago. I still use it today. I'm always learning new things about how to properly use all of the functions that it keeps me from upgrading. It does force you to think about your shot but that's kind of the point, right? I'm surprised at how many new "budget" cameras Canon releases and they don't have as many features that the T3i has. It's incredibly robust. I invested in lenses instead of a new camera. You're right about the ISO. It's an old camera and can only be pushed so far. But it's a great, affordable camera to learn the Canon workflow on.
Yeah anything over 4 is gonna cause muddy. If you have to do it, it’s best to use the standard color profile so that there’s at least some baked in contrast and color.
@@LouisLuzuka neutral is good too. It really comes down to personal preference. Standard with -2 sharpening and -1 for saturation and contrast is what I like to use in those circumstances. Neutral with the t3i is splotchy on my face. Better cameras like the sl2 and 80d I don't have that issue with neutral if that makes sense.
@ interesting 🧐 u think it’s the same for the t6s and eos m that’s what I’m using…. But I’ll do some testing as well I used to have the SL2 I loved that camera , is there a chance there’s other models you’d consider ? Like 70/80/90d or sl3? Or they can’t use magic lantern I’m currently just using what I got and not planning on buying anything else but what lenses do you find work best besides the 24mm pancake that’s my favourite lens I even speed boost it on the eos m
@LouisLuzuka I still have and use a 80d. I should make an updated color style video with it. I’d keep using what you have. The 24mm is definitely one of the best budget lenses especially around f4. The other lens that I really think is a must is the sigma 18-35.
Nice to see other folks still rocking the T3i. Great video.

Thanks! good video; useful advice
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for sharing! I have a t3i with a few lenses that I’m hoping to use for filming 🤞🏼
Make sure you check out my video on the picture profile settings for older canons!
I need to learn from you because I'm having a hard time with my t6s but I do have magic lantern on my Eos m so lets try that
Tech stuff .....is just so cool
Hi Sir. Can you please help me to set up my T3i? This is my 1st camera and i don't know the basics.
I’ve made a how to video or two already. Check some of those out.
Did you ever post your cinestyle preset?
I did it’s in the Google drive on my picture profile video.
yeah I tried 800-1600 iso and I even got grain in the daytime LOL

So you don’t think I should have used neutral picture profiles? If I want to exceed 400 iso
