Where's that white owl
You missed the most obvious Sony a9 ii
You don't need a fancy telephoto to photograph ducks. A loaf of bread will do. They'll do selfies with you on an 18mm for a piece of crust.
hahaha
Hi. Every camera company should hire you to challenge their idéas. Your approach on this subject is outstanding. I really enjoy following your journey or should we call it Quest. Thank you for both giving me good insights of camera features and exellent comedy/humour. Sorry if I miss-spell anything. English isn’t my native language. Great video. Thank you.
They should call him for board meetings.
I love how you manage to have a video that is both very entertaining to watch but also actually conveys a lot of information.
I own the OM-1 and the 100-400. The trick for good stability is to set the IS to Len priority to use the lens stabilization. Once you do that the lens is rock solid.
There is a HUGE difference with low light, AF with tracking and stabilization with the OM-1 compared to the EM-1x. You should call Camera Canada to try one.
I have my OM-1 on order. Are there custom modes for video? Can you set any of the C modes o the top dial for a video setting? Thx!
@@RockyColaFizz I'm still waiting for mine, and I pre-ordered. Hopefully its worth the wait!
@@RockyColaFizz Yes, you can set the OM1 custom mode to saves video settings.
@@gjune36 Fantastic. Thx!
It would be awesome if you re-run this analysis every so often as new cameras get releases. It's a great overview based on your needs. I'm curious why you included the A1 and Z9, but not the R3? similar price points and probably addresses many of your concerns. R7 might win back a few over the R6 as well.
Excellent video! I love the comparison sheet and your summaries! Great job! Camera companies should use you as a consultant.
I love your spreadsheet. Very well reasoned and almost complete. I would add a row to the spreadsheet for wildlife videography: Built-in ND filters. The Canon R-mount cameras can be fitted with an ND-Filter adapter which is something to consider if using EF lenses on their mirrorless cameras. Most of the telephoto lenses out there don't do well with ND filters. An adapter solves the problem.
Also I currently have the A1 with the 200-600 lens and even without eye-detect autofocus in video mode, it still tracks the subject magnificently. I love the A1 and the 200-600 for wildlife videography. I also have the GH6 with the Panny 100-400. For a lightweight and nice stabilization it is wonderful...except...pulsating autofocus! I typically use manual focus and obtain initial focus using back-button focus. I prefer the video capabilities and color grading of the GH6 compared to the A1 but that damn pulsating contrast-based autoocus! Not good for video. I shoot primarily 120p wildlife video.
Canon R5 C (and hence C70) have customizable menus (My Menu) for easy access, you can reassign all buttons to your liking, but no custom modes like what you have in the R, R6, R5.
Good Rundown. Would have liked to see the R3 on this list. Overpriced, still missing 240p, but a bit lighter than the Z9 and seems to allow the option of aps-c or super35 cropped or full frame readout in both 4k and 1080p and it has a flippy screen. Fully agree about 240 absence in Z9 being the biggest let down. My 3 year old Z6 has 120p.. Not sure why Nikon has 240 phobia, they have no high speed cinema line to protect as far as I know...
lol 240fps phobia. where did this come from.
Nikon can clearly do anything with firmware updates, so who knows? I've ordered the Z9, but who knows when it'll arrive
@@andreasmisundberntsen9237 100% agreed, the only thing I can imagine is they were not happy with the way 240 looked as their 120p is one of the best, but is susceptible to moire in certain situations if you don't overexpose a tad (in the Z6).. but this should just be a bit rate thing. My gut says they have the power to do it very well, but even if their was a caviate like 5 seconds in high bit rates or raw, I say, bring it on, cause it's all we need 99% of the time, especially if we get a second of pre-roll.
@@andreasmisundberntsen9237 you know the old saying: Don’t buy something because of “possible” features, but for the features it has now. Likely, those future features will never arrive.
I loved all your videos ...congratulations for your style & channel.
Yet another stunning video. Your song during the slow motion clip was amazing. The only thing the Canon had was a little nicer skin tone.
Love this video - the Fuji experience is a roller coaster ride; but when it is good it is sooo good. Hope the X-H2S works out well for you - I think I am waiting to see how the X-H2 pans out, but I am not convinced; there are likely to be some downsides to a 40Mp sensor. Can see me sticking with my X-T4 until at least the next generation when Fuji sort themselves out.
This is a great checklist, easy for everyone to compare and decide
Your list of demands is actually very reasonable. Kinda surprising that no camera matches it.
Good video. What about the new Canon EOS R7? Is it good enough for you for wildlife photography ?
www.techradar.com/reviews/canon-eos-r7 No 4K/120p video mode
Spot on, and reassures me I am not the only one who has spreadsheets like that 😊
Great video! Very funny 😆 Crop Sensor and Prime Tele lenses should also be a criterion for many Photography Wildlife motives (small animals, small birds, macro, etc…)!
I love the combo of my R5 and the RF100-400 but I'm excited for the prospect of the R7 with that same RF 100-400 lens. Could be a winner minus the super slow mo. The stabe at longer focal lengths is amazing and the 4k 120p looks great. Cheers and thanks for the video.
I just came across your channel and I'm already a fan. Awesome presentation straight to the point with attention to details and very informative while maintaining a nice and unique touch of humor. Very entertaining as well. I'm in the market for a wildlife photography setup and I'm more and more inclined towards the R6+Rf100-500. Yes...you are right...they get you with the lens when it comes to affordable. I'm not interested in video features so why invest in that?
Hello, I would like to see the comparison of the XT4 120 fps vs Sony A6100, 6400 or 6600, is it possible for you to make that comparison?
APS-C preferred for wildlife due to magnification factor. Very helpful to have this added reach for tele shots. Paired with decent megapixel sensor they allow for increased cropping potential.
This chart, like the one in your Canon Cripple Hammer video, makes me feel like camera companies are deliberately trying to make an impossible brain puzzle that frustrates us into buying multiple cameras for different uses.
Joke's on them, though, because I'm BROKE! HA!
That said, I would be theoretically willing to spend $6K on a heavy camera/lens setup if it got me all those other things on the chart and shot 12-bit RAW internal using viewing LUTs 😍
Can we add the Sony A7R IVA? It’s on B&H for $3500 and is full-frame? Anyone know how it compares to the A7 iV on this list?
I watch all your stuff for vlogging mostly and this was still an amazing video to see where the cameras shortcomings and advantages are. I just record everything I do basically and realized primes are not for me. Im a lazy youtube hobo and just want a zoom. I take photos and video of people, food, architecture and whatever else. I do have the sony 20mm 1.8 though for inside these hella dark steakhouses where my eyes need to be f/0, iso over 9000 and still cant see shit. Your channel is super practical and love it! Thank you!
The C70 has a custom menu option, known as My Menu. You can build your own menu with all the settings you most commonly need to access. Puts everything in one easy to find place in the exact order you need.
The C70 has similar image stabilization as the C300 Mark III and C500 Mark II. When combined with the optical image stabilization of RF lenses Canon says there's now a "coordinated image stabilization" in which the stabilization data from the lens drives the electronic stabilization with greater precision.
Hilarious as always. I like these long form comparison videos you do, it really makes me feel justified on sticking with Sony Alpha series full frame cameras. While I loved fuji colour science, that 4k 120p Sony has = Winner Winner Chicken Dinner. It's the cleanest looking video out there, day or night, hands down. I think Sony has been onto something the others haven't for some time now, and while you pay a premium (Especially for the glass, ooof) the results are often nothing short of breathtaking, even for amateurs.
If only they did firmware updates :(
@@igelkotte Last one brought S-Cinetone though no?
Winner winner chicken dinner
Hi, comprehensive and unbiased, nice !
Just came back from the Svalbard in the Arctic. I carried Olympus/OMS OM-1 & E-M1 III with 5 Pro lenses, just a bit over 8Kg max allowed for carry-ons. Covered FF equiv 14-1200mm due to MFT. I took decent shots and video of polar bears at 2Km away with OM-1, 300F4 IS Pro, MC20 (2X teleconverter) and 2X digital in-camera converter. My co-travellers liked my shots much better than theirs, in reach and quality. They had Canon 90D, Nikon 7200 and FujiXT-4. All had long telephotos and some had teleconverters. One had Sigma 500F4 worth US$6000. At 2400mm FF equivalent, finding the target and hand-holding steady was a very very big challenge. With ship engine vibration you can't lean anywhere and can't possibly use tripods (I don't anyway with Only). Some used bean bags, but for me handholding worked better, maybe due to Olympus superb stabilisation. With Olympus 150-400F4.5 Pro, able to max at 4000mm FFE incl. optical and digital 2X. That could have been be a huge advantage, but not sure if I could find the target at this extreme magnification and keep it steady enough to focus.But would cost about US$1K more than the full frame prime and be much more flexible and light.
The z9 or the r5. I like your spreadsheet. Which one has the best feel in your hands?
OM-1 has the best handheld stabilization - you can completely lock off, especially with the Stabilization setting at +1. The Fuji is very good too though.
Great overview. I currently use my Nikon D7500 + Sigma 150-600mm C lens for wildlife photography which works well, but not for video. If you have money to burn I guess the Nikon Z9 would be a great choice (but still need that 200-600mm lens to be released), The OM-1 would be a great photo/video option with lots of lenses to choose from if you don't mind the 4/3 sensor. Personally, I am going to wait until next week when Fujifilm announce the X-H2s and potentially that new 150-600mm lens. That could be my next hybrid wildlife set-up :-)
All the Panasonic G9 fans demand a G9-II with the sensor and the stills from the GH6. The GH6 is a great stills camera and deserves the 11'th point for stills.
In addition, for single shots in high quality, the GH6 has the best HighRes mode (hand held or tripod) out there. The detection for moving objects is far ahead of the one in the OM-1.
Too heavy.
Also...the OM-1 will absolutely destroy the GH6 with bird autofocus. Not sure where you're getting your facts from.
@@HokKan I made tests with the GH6 HHHR. Places with people, cars moving and buildings. No artifacts on the moving objects, they are used from one of the 16 images the camera takes within around 0.3s. Most of the image is significantly better than a single image, the moving objects and the background they cover during the 0.3s is normal quality.
I also saw HHHR from the OM-1. A car moving on a road was shown with terrible artifacts like 8 or more overlapped images. Example:
ua-cam.com/video/mvVcqenKNGM/v-deo.html
The GH6 delivers a 100MP picture where the blurry area with the car would be taken from one of the 25MP images. Totally usable in situations like this.
@@Ulrich.Bierwisch yeah the GH6 is way better for HHHR. Can remove artifacts from moving subjects and can do it at the same resolution as tripod high res mode.
I was referring to autofocus subject detection, separate from high res mode. None of the Olympus cameras have detection for moving subjects, so it's not really a comparison of which has better detection, the OM-1 just lacks it.
I was down at the duck pond with my fujifilm 100-400 and a lady asked me if it was a Canon. I told her, no. It's a bazooka.
It would be cool if you could get a GH6 to test out for wildlife & vlogging
Great entertainment! Great Channel.
Great chart Casey
you really need to try Z9, given that Z50 haven't disappointed you
I'm watching this now, with you on sensor size for PHOTOGRAPHY but Video I'ld be willing to consider a smaller sensor if the resolution, image quality, IS, Focus, and frame rates were usable. I know you hate to hear it Kasey and I am with you on the need for camera that does both PHOTOGRAPHY and video well, but.... and this is just a thought, I am really curious how well the FX6 would behave for wild life video. The footage you're getting is increadible, I really enjoy a lot of the A7SIII footage. I am super interested in the Nikon Z9 as well I'm currently working with a mortgage broker, given the huge investment it will take to acquire new glass as well shifting from my current cripple hammer collection of Canon equipment.
What are you doing different with your grading? It looks great!
Nothing, it's straight out of camera. That's why, I just make things look worse lol.
@@cameraconspiracies I like to imagine he knew that and just wanted to roast you :D
9:40 Dude, what are you talking about. The m.Zuiko 100-400mm is stabilized, good for three stops. Since it's not a "Pro" lens, it's not compatible with "Sync IS," but can still work in-conjunction with Olympus in-body IS bodies. I can hand hold that lens at 400mm on an E-M1 III no problem.
And you're putting together a list of requirements for wildlife gear without mentioning any IPX rating requirement? Really? :)
Are you using a different LUT or setup? This video looks more cinematic.
The OM-1 has 120fps full res raw shooting. On a 24p timeline, the buffer will give you about 4 seconds of footage. It also has the benefit of capturing the key moment with pro-capture, which seems to be missing from your list. You can use 120fps with pro-capture to get 4 seconds worth of the precise action moment, all in 5.2K with the ability to edit them raw.
Of course, it has its limitations with only 4 seconds, but no other cameras can shoot 120p raw, nor at 5.2K, and nor with pro-capture benefits. I think that deserves at least half a point for the OM-1, or even a full point, depending on your usage and workflow. Search OM-1 5.2K 120fps for sample footage.
None of the other options has a pro-capture mode. Shooting still images with pro capture is almost like god mode or cheat mode for wildlife photography. Getting amazing shots becomes trivial. The only caveat: pack lots of SD cards, and they need to be FAST, 300mb/s. I burned through 64GB in less than half a day of shooting Orcas.
The other key requirement for wildlife (actual wildlife, not pretending to do wildlife in some suburban city park with ducks and shit) is a decent IPX rating. The only system to give you that consistently and reliably is Olympus/OM Systems.
@@weisserth My G9 has pre-burst, which is the same as pro-capture. Z9 has it too but it's full frame so...JPG only.
canon R3?
All roads lead to PANNY BOY! - but in all seriousness, really enjoyed the breakdown & work you put in.
You forgot USABILITY. Fun and interesting video.
I think stacked sensor should be a category of its own because it enables silent shooting with more confidence.. Which reduces shutter use. High fps shooting with mechanical could see a busted shutter where stacked sensors you'll never have to worry about that.
Fuji xt4 seems to work out for me man. With the 18-35 mm sigma art ef lens. It truly is fire 💯 but I’m looking forward to that xt5👀👀 I know it’s comin
This was all about wild life setups.
But yes great camera
Great video . I have an first year Full XT-10 , in my opinion ( amateur ) a very good camera although the build could have been better ( you get what you pay for ) . But for me the images , even the JPEGS are very good . Another manufacturer would have to show me a quantum leap to sway me away from buying an XT-4 at this point .
Good vid
Wait, what exactly is the tip for holding Sony's 200-600 lens?
Hey I have a question, I have a Sony a 7S3 35 mm G master on a ronin s, How do you deal with the focus shocking waves ? I normally shoot at F4 or higher . It just fucking annoying.
You should add frames per second for wildlife. Nikon 100 400 with tc is amazing. So that should be green. Good comparison 👏
wow, that was quite some work. Very entertainingly commented - much more value than one might expect at first sight. Thank you for this episode, appreciated!!
Now, lets be REALLY REALLY honest. Yes, the GH6 is videocentric, but WHITE field for photo? Gotta be kidding me. Yellow at worst. And pick a decent smooth PL100-400 and that "good telephoto ranking" will increase to green, making the GH6 the winner. Be honest. Yes, no full frame, yes (lets call it) decent AF, still you gonna HAVE to manually focus the super important shots on ANY camera. Basically its really down to the GH6, if you are willing to even consider M43 anymore.
I have the impression the "full frame" category is super important and doesn't really count equally to all other categories. Which I understand, so for me its a two step decission process. Step one: does it have to be FF or APSC? Yes? Pick that winner. If M43 is allowed go to step two and pick the highscore: you HAVE a winner on the sheet, be real ! And: there hasn't been a single firmware update for the GH6 yet, lets wait what they will come up with - usually Panasonic doesn't lack on that department. Animal eye detect with good AF hit rate ("good", not perfect) is not yet off the table...
The only reason I didn't pickup a GH6 (body only is down to 1.949€ in the meantime!) is that I don't shoot video enough. I highly expect a specialized photocamera utilizing the new 25MP sensor and thats where I'll probably be pouncing on.
Edit: maybe "color science" could have been a valid category also.
Again, let me express my appriciation for this thorough sheet and categorization process, good work!
For me AF has only two options. AMAZING or Useless. If I can't trust it then I'll never use it.
@@igelkotte absolut valid position. I guess the AF question boils down to the usecase. As seen here in many shots even with Sonys excellent AF quite a few were out of focus. Who is the amazing brand then? Nikon? Canon dual pixel AF 2?
CDAF will probably always drop behind PDAF, due to pulsing. But, well, let's enter an easy train of thought: imagine the screen or EVF refresh rate to be 90fps (for the sake of argument). Now imagine the internal refresh rate (transfer rate from sensor to program logic) to be 180fps. Now, what if the CDAF detection (aka pulsing) would only occur in between the visible frames, only calculated and executed in the invisible, internal inbetween frames? How would the user even notice one invisible pulse-frame in the middle of two viewfinder frames? This approach would be indistinguishable from a successful PDAF approach. The only requirement to reach this is processing power!
We don't know the real potential of the GH6 yet, but with the G9 we have seen incredibly optimized performance being squeezed out the G9. Projected on to the GH6 processing capabilities I expect huge AF improvements to come. Both in general algorithm approach and pure code optimizations.
In another answer here in the comments Kasey argued to "mostly use MF anyway". So I really think in the end it boils down to one serious, and valid, requirement: does he, do we, need the FF look? (which unquestionable is there!!). If yes forget about M43, if no there is no better candidate than the GH6. Even in Kaseys critical sheet it ticks the most boxes.
03:05 amazing shot !
So how's the a7iv not getting a green field for being full frame? Is it the MP, it has more than the R6 for example. Don't really getting it...
4k 60p is aps-c mode.
Ah gotcha XD
Like the colors, which Lut did you use? Ps: Panasoc takes great photos, check the pros posts on forums, your Jordy is a fool.😄
I do wildlife stills 90% of the time.ive got the r6 an have just bought the rf 100-500.....so far so good
I thought the IS in the Olympus 100-400 meant it was stabilized. According to B&H it is, can you confirm it's not?
It is stabilized but dont have Sync IS which works together with the body.
The lens provides stabilization up to three stops, lens only. Works well. I have no issues getting stable footage handheld.
I have the best camera for any kind of photography. Sony A7iv. With the 100-400mm. I can do macro, birds, landscapes, video, you name it.
The R6 with the RF 100-400mm is crazy lightweight and fun to carry and with great image quality. The R7 is gonna make that lens even more bad ass and it only costs about 5 or $600.
Lumix G9 with the 100-300mm Mk2.
X-H2S might be crazy good, but that fan would be a big annoyance if you need to take it with you every single time.
After a year with the R6, it’s never overheated and I don’t have much problem editing the Clog.
No custom video modes is my biggest complaint.
Where do you live?
came to say exactly all of this
I concur

Clear win for the Gh6, only one white spot and two yellow ones 🙂
Please do us a favour. Just TRY a full frame Nikon. I've been following the channel for years and the only time I've seen a Z6 used was in the camera shop.
The Z9's foibles are easy to rectify. Get Nikon to firmware update HD 240p video. For affordability simply win the lottery. For lightness, purchase the Monkey strength program. For long telephoto zoom just buy the G 200 to 500 and the FTZ adapter or save money by zooming with your feet 😊 Sorted! Glad I could be of some assistance 😁
Weird not giving the GH6 the hybrid mark seeing as it's better than the G9 which is an excellent hybrid. Anyway, at 10 points youbhave Z9 vs GH6 at 2/5ths of the price and half the weight.
GH6 autofocus, still stuck in 2012.
Z9 autofocus straight out of their D850 so its damn near perfect.
@@SMGJohn gh6 af is better than fuji's so it's at least 2018 tier. not worth paying 4k extra for the z9 as a casual.
GH6 is like 830 grams or smth stupid with the battery. I think I'll wait for a G9ii. Between my G9 and the GH6, I'd pick up the G9 still.
@@haploguy
GH6 is dear near price of a Canon R6 on sale which happens a lot lately since its getting old with age.
And the R6 is almost half the weight LOL.
@@HokKan have you any inform about g9ii? When coming out??
I think Nikon will bring out some new cameras which might have a lot of features but not be as Exe as the Z9. Might be lighter too, the d850 equivalent. But when? Hopefully by the time they do the 200-600.
Full Frame means bazooka lens- no thanks.
Color science?
Olympus, Canon, Fuji, Sony, Panasonic.
From the 1st to the last places....
Very subjective. I would rank Olympus and Fuji at the top of that list for myself.
I want to see a OM1 review from Camera Conspiracies. Whwen us that coming?
Some categories are bigger than others though. And I think another category would be: Good useable AF
If you can live with 4k 60, the Sony A74 is the best bet. It gives you oversampled 5K video in the 4k 60p ( which it crops by 1.5). So with the Sony 200-600, you get good stabilization, high quality over sampled 4k 60, at 840mm. It has incredible animal eye autofocus in video as well. I use it all the time like this and the results are awesome.
I already have 4k 120p. Downgrading to aps-c sensor for 4k 60p doesn't exactly excite me when I use manual focus most of the time anyways. I already have a Fuji that does that.
@@cameraconspiracies Totally understand. Thx again for all of the great videos.
Did you consider having the Canon R7 in this list?
This was before it was released. And no.
right? apart from high framerates (which seem really important to him ^^) and of course full frame sensor, it seems to everything else?
haha i just got my A1 and 70-200 mkii. UH Mazing. watched your ads and gonna buy into the Sony reptilian T-shirt gang...lol
i think canon r7 autofocus is worth considering for wildlife.
Vlogging the Nikon Z50 looked best on your channel.
I have a Nikon D750, their Z7 with a small mountain of lenses, the DJI Pocket 2 & Mini 2 drone, and finally a GoPro 9. I come to the channel for the comedy only 😂
Just returned a rented Tamron 150-500mm that I used on a trip with my Sony a7R II ... Holy racoon's scrotum it's heavy but the RAW files are so easy and good at editing, I don't lose anything in the shadows or the highlights and it has so much details you can tell a swancs age by their wrinkles. But it's such a heavy combo at 2.4 Kgs that I'm thinking of going a bit smaller like Fujifilm X-S10 or X-T4 (I prefer the X-S10 grip for telephoto lenses) or the Sony a6600 with Sigma 100-400 to save weight and £. The only thing that really pushes me towards Fujifilm ia that it's the only non Micro Four Thirds company that gives Pro Capture level of performance for wildlife but I don't know how well the RAW files hold up to highlight and shadow recovery.
I got this lens, it’s lighter than than 200-600. AF is great and detail is excellent.
This is for video, that lens would produce unusable results handheld.
@@cameraconspiracies I admit that I am a photographer pleb who never got out of their cave of 1 monkey wall painting per second.
The new R7 has a pro capture mode.
@@cameraconspiracies Tamron 150-500 has 3 modes of stabe
Best camera for you man, Sigma sd Quattro + Sigma 60 - 600mm F4.5 - 6.3.
Perfect camera for you, it can autofocus a subject in 5 minutes, want 4k 120fps? No worry, IT AINT GOT IT, so you AINT GOTTA WORRY.
It shoot weird photo format that needs its own contemporary software that only works on a Power CPU Mac from 1997.
Camera weights 3kg, lens weights 7kg, perfect combo to feel like Viet Cong in the jungle.
There just aint no better camera than this bad boy!
damn, this was a ton of work to put in. get the z9.
The R6 with the RF100-400mm is so light weight and fun to carry. I have preordered the R7 and I can't wait to use those 2 together. Not sure about the video capabilities for you though bro.
bro
That seems like a very capable lens. I wish Canon offered an RF lens somewhere between that and the $3K 100-500.
Oof yes, love that you are looking for the best wildlife. Let the hunt begin
Too bad I did not talk about professional photography with the cameras, there is an option that is not available in the Nikon Z9 and it is video recording for 2 cards at the same time.
Which means - I can shoot a whole event of 6 hours, and at the end of the event the card will not work, then what comes out is that I went all the shots of a whole event, while with almost any other camera you mentioned you can shoot 2 cards at once and then I can rest assured If one fails - I will have one ticket left safe.
Yeah do the blogging comparison
Panasonic for the win again. Before you added the last category, it was the winner with 10 :P
I recently saw a video with a long term comparison of the A1 with 200-600 and the OM-1 with the 150-400 and as much as he liked the Sony, he just couldn't shake the Olympus results. Incredible photo capabilities and the lens is ridiculous but his biggest factor was Pro Capture mode. Granted, he commented that he's largely a photographer but he said he's doing a lot more video these days, still, he can get photos when his buddies simply cannot. He also said the IBIS is on a whole different level. Do a bit of searching, you might find a compelling option there. The OM-1 does seem to be a different category of camera compared to EM1X and EM1 mk III. Worth exploring
Kasey, here's the link to the video I'm referring to ua-cam.com/video/Ap-azoSgt90/v-deo.html
You're talking about a photographer who shoots no video, I've already seen it.
@@cameraconspiracies Haha that good eh? Man, he's got a point though, it's a wildlife photographer's system of choice
@@KPGuitarStudios And he says himself if he shot more video, he's choose Sony it's superior.
@@cameraconspiracies Such a Conspiracy against m43 haha. I still love your videos man 🤘
16:40 12 mega pixer :D
Panasonic S5 and Sigma 150-600mm?
You should really try Nikon 100-400s, you may change your opinion a lot, the lens is amazing. If you like Fuji 100-400, and if money isn't huge deal, 100-400s is gonna put smile on your face.
It's not enough reach for full frame, I had the Sony GM 100-400mm.
I have the A1 and a74, they are both light but a74 lighter
So, counting the green boxes makes the Canon R5 the winner? Yay, looks like I've made the right choice!
The Z9 can use the legendary 200-500 5.6 F mount nikkor.
There was a time where "full frame" was expensive and heavy . It is time to move to 100MP medium format.
I think Nikon might be onto something here, not only with the Z9 but also with what’s to come. But the problem with Nikon is you really have to be into some kind of zen philosophy, otherwise they‘ll drive you nuts. Not only will you spend a lot of time waiting for them to release new products but also until you can get your hands onto them. So if you are the I-want-stuff-and-I-want-it-now kinda person Nikon is not the right brand for you
My OM-1 is more than good enough. It's not like National Geographic is publishing our stuff anyway.
There are National Geographic photographers who use Olympus MFT gear. Jay Dickman has worked for National Geographic for DECADES and he shoots Olympus gear exclusively as an Olympus Visionary. Thomas Van Puymbroeck is an Olympus Ambassador and has been published with his work by National Geographic as well.
@@weisserth Nice. Yep. The gear is good enough if the photographer is good enough.
I have a feeling if Nikon releases a firmware upgrade that does 4K 240P, it won’t be exclusive to the Z9.
why its good telephoto zoom category rather then good telephoto lens category.
I can see what's going to happen, in order to solve the overheating problems they're all going to face with super high power mega files video in the future. The form factor is going to have to change, the traditional 35mm camera form just isn't going to cut it.
If you want to see what works, check the 2021 Audubon Photo Contest Top 100 photos.
I'm trying to sell my Panasonic G95 with its lenses but it's so hard to sell it. If I take it to a camera shop they give iterally nothing for the body and lenses. They're were trying to give me $400 for the body and all four lenses. The used market is so low priced. I might as well keep the ddarn thing. I wish Panasonic never used contrast detect auto focus. I bought it for its IBIS, now I regret it because the video autofocus is pretty much unusable. Manual focus is the way I think Panasonic was shooting for.
