Update: Thank you so much. I had no regrets buying this camera. Your video helped a lot while I was testing out the features. I also took photos of my classmates and they loved it. God bless you! You deserve more subscribers 😊🙌
Great to watch this older review in 2023, I've always loved Canon dslrs, but I bought the T5i (700d in the uk). My 700D has been and still is an amazing camera. Thanks.
Tons of great information!!! Wish I would've seen this video before I bought this camera. But I'm mainly using it for video and it was a huge jump up from my smart phone so I'm still happy. Definitely wish it was 1080p 60fps
Thanks for the post/feedback and glad to be of help!:) The camera will do a solid job for video:). I do not shoot 60fps much unless I need to slow down action.
Just wanted to say I don't usually watch videos this long but you did a great job and I watched it till the end, I wish you could maybe do a video on the best settings for beginners and show how to blur pictures Ik it's aperture mode but it's complicated at times and if possible how did you get the lights on those passing cars to show streaks? Amazing it would be very helpful to me and alot of youtubers ty sir I subbed your channel friend 😀
Thanks for the post/feedback and welcome to the channel!:) I created a couple of other videos that you might find helpful ... ua-cam.com/video/KTneVSxv1qs/v-deo.html (this is all about modes outside of Auto), ua-cam.com/video/TbSgl5e6h7I/v-deo.html (trailing car lights), ua-cam.com/video/P9o3jyPaybw/v-deo.html (steel wool night shots) ... this leverage the Nikon D3400 for the most part but the same logic applies to Canon:).
Thanks for asking this question,,,,,...been finding it hard to ask ,not sure pros have a thing for rookies like (yet to get my t6i Buh I’m pretty infatuated enough to want to know)
Great review. I'll be using my first unit to shoot independent music vids as well as fitness vids mostly, but also some still shots. Let's say at a ratio of 70% vid 30 %photo, which would you recommend?
Thanks for the post/feedback:). If you are on a relatively tight budget and plan to shoot more video than photos, I would consider the T6i or the Nikon D3300 (not 3400 (the 3400 does not have an external mic port)). The T6i comes with an STM lens which is Cannon's silent auto focus lens (works great). Nikon comes with the AF-P (the P is Nikon's silent auto focus lens (works great as well). For better audio consider using a Rode mic or the like. This is a small external boom mic that connects to the external mic port and attached to the external flash slot. You might also consider the Zoom H1 and a cheap lavalere mic (this is what i use - ua-cam.com/video/4StJ6QmYvpQ/v-deo.html).
RealWorld What do you think of the Sony RX10 iv do you think is a good Camera for all types of taking pictures the only problem you can't change the lens .
The Nikon D5500 has more focal points (39), BUT the Nikon has just 9 cross-type sensors and the Canon T6i has all 19 focal points as cross-type sensors, and that makes difference if focal points are important for you.
Agreed and good point:). Cross-type will yield better/tighter focus - the more the better especially for moving subjects across the frame. I typically leverage my center focal point and recompose if needed.
RealWorld this video really is going to help me with may New camera I just got I been wanting one Canon EOS t6iD. Thank to may husband, and now thanks to this video.
Love your videos! I think I have narrowed my first DSLR purchase to the Canon T6i and Nikon D5500. I am really struggling with the decision. I will be primarily using for photography...maybe the occasional video. On paper the D5500 seems like a clear winner. I also have read multiple sources who believe Nikon to be a better brand for photos. I know it really depends on the person behind the camera...if it was your best friend or family member asking...would you go T6i or D5500??
I've had this camera for the last 5 years. It was my first DSLR, so I can't compare it to Nikon or any other brand, nor am I interested in doing so. I have bought various Canon EFS/EF lenses for it and have been delighted with both the quality of the lenses and the options they have given me. I have to say that I've had an incredible time with the T6i and would recommend it to anyone interested in dipping their toe into the wonderful world of photography. I'll be moving on soon (probably to the Canon 90D, if I can get the cash together) for three reasons: battery life, frames per second and build. At the end of the day, I can honestly say that owning the T6i has changed my life. I don't work for Canon, by the way :-).
Thanks for the post/feedback Peter!:) Something I have come to realize over the years is that each major manufacturer makes solid/decent gear for the most part (Canon, Nikon, Sony, Panasonic, Fuji, etc.). The T6i is a solid camera to gain a better understanding in the world of photography. I have been looking at the Sony lineup and may jump soon as well:).
I'm sticking with nikon. I did eleventy billion hours of research before I bought my camera and chose the one I did because it seemed to me that I could do anything with it. I very often ask people in the know if they think I'm into it over my head financially. My plan was to buy lenses and equipment that would transfer over if I wanted to go to a better body. But hey, who am I kidding. How much can I shoot from a wheelchair. I'm an amateur and the best I can hope for is to be a good one. I can do tons of stuff with guys like you around actually. One being macro. I'm rigged up for that fairly well. So thanks for the honest test. My daughter is a photographer, weddings an outdoor and is a cannon girl so we now have a new subject to argue about. How bout another test on that D3400? What a great camera to learn on. The other is shooting in raw. I'm still not with it on that one. This stuff goes whizzing by and I write down a lot of subjects to study but as y'all can clearly see P.T.S.D. AND A.D.D. HAS ITS WAY WITH ME. wave something shiny in front of me and you have me.
Hi Andy and thanks for the post!:) Both Nikon and Canon are great systems in my opinion. I have shot with both and stick with Nikon simply because I have more Nikon lenses:). I created a video on the Nikon D3400 and put it through the paces (not certain you saw it - ua-cam.com/video/cORINOaLSTk/v-deo.html). I have friends that shoot Canon, Nikon, and/or Sony ... always a good discussion:).
I'm so glad I doscovered this channel! I live about 1/2 mile from the park where you were shooting and about that far from downtown where you took your night photos :)
such a great video for someone who's just purchased this. Love this video, delighted to have come across you through searching reviews of the product. Love it, love the entire video, congrats, thanks for all of the useful, knowledgeable and balanced info. Hat tip to you! 🎩
Thanks for the post/feedback and glad to be of help/inspiration!:) The T6i is a great capable camera. I used the Nikon D3400 for a number of videos simply because I had quick access to one when discussing other topics. Nonetheless, each video can be applied to any camera including the T6i ... most are not camera specific rather they focus on various techniques, etc.
Great review sir. Very good job, thank you. I'm about to buy my first DSLR and the 750d is one of my options.. Things that hold me back is lack of 60fps at highest res, low battery performance and the fact that this camera is not weather resistant, as I would like to take it with me at the beach and such adventures. Image quality seems impressively good to me, given the fact that you used the standard, not of such high quality, kit lens. Did you edit and post process the pictures or are these the actual colours the camera produces? (it's probably the first one, just need to confirm tho hehe)
Excellent review. Bought this camera today and your video made me feel a lot more comfortable with it. Going to primarily use to vlog and take pics of my new grand baby
Would you purchase a canon t6i or a nikon 3500 (I have found black friday sales on both)? I have watched both your reviews, but I still can't decide. I love capturing my family and want room to improve my skills.
Both are solid, but I might lean towards the T6i especially if you plan to capture video with the camera. Canon did a great job with their STM lenses and auto focus system:). Nikon removed the AA filter which is nice as this tends to soften images. If you have no plans to capture video, you might want to consider the D3400 as it should be on sale since the D3500 was just release (the image quality between both will be the same as they share the same sensor and resolution:)).
Thanks for the movie. Is 750D better than 4000D? I now have a 4000D and want to upgrade my camera. Which model do you suggest? (Consider also economically)
Glad to be of help!:) Yes, the 750D is a nice step-up from the 4000D ... higher max ISO, higher resolution, more focal points, articulating touch screen, etc. :)
@@RealWorld Thanks for the tips. Unfortunately,4000D has a high noise level and all my photos were rejected by Shutterstock. Even at ISO 100, it has significant noise.
By adding European name of this camera is a display of professionalism from your side, unlike many of the same camera reviews from your fellow Americans..
Thanks for the feedback:). I chat with people all over the world and quickly recognized the naming differences ... a bit confusing at first and not certain why the name changes on various makes and models:).
This is the camera I have pretty much decided on, thanks in large part to your videos. Thank you for a good honest look. You have some great music in your videos, by the way!
This video helped me out so so much! I am looking for a great entry level DSLR and this video might have made me choose which one I want! The cons were ok but I could live with it. The photos were just amazing. I love photography and I love to make videos! Keep up the good work! :)
Would you recommend this one or the Nikon 5600D? I'm really torn between them. I'm a beginner and want to be able to catch good photos and maybe make videos for UA-cam. I've watched both of your reviews...but basically, WiFi and touchscreen are important for me, as well as a good battery life. Thank you very much!!!✨
Thanks for the post/question Inna!:) I might lean towards the D5600 for various reasons ... more focal points, higher max ISO, better battery life (820 shots vs 440), built-in time lapse, better dynamic range, and Nikon removed the AA filter (anti-aliasing filter which tends to soften images slightly). Canon's STM lenses and AF system are very nice for video though:).
@@RealWorld thank you for the answer!!! After reading some comparison reviews, I think I'm set on the 5600D😊 your reply helped as well, thanks again ❤️
watching this video because i'm buying this camera soon.. was pleasantly surprised to see my hometown during the night shots! carmel represent!!! great review as well.
Hi Emma and thank you for the post/feedback!:) Great to hear from someone who is from the area!:) Carmel is a great place with continued growth. I have heard from a few people who recognize the area which is always nice. I plan to create/produce a video in the next few days on night shots. My goal will be to capture trailing lights. I would like to get a good nightscape of downtown Carmel but may head to Indy:). Enjoy the camera!:)
Good vid. Just got one as an upgrade from my T1i. I will mention a do own a Sony a6000 as well so the T1i wasn't the only camera i had but was the only dslr. Have only taken a couple shots with it so far and I really like it. I know this video is old but was still a good one to watch if you are just getting a T6i
Hmmmm if you are more into video, I might lean towards the 750D (Canon does a great job with their STM lens and AF). If you are more into photos, I might lean towards the D3400 or D5300 (rotating screen). The D3300 and D3500 are solid as well.
Thank you for this! I loved your shots and how you reviewed it. I am planning to get this as I begin my photography/filmmaking journey and this helped a lot! THANK YOU SO MUCH.
Hello Tariq - thank you for the question and feedback!:) Sounds like a great buy on the T6i - nice grab:). The T6i has a few advantages over the D3400 IMO ... the fully articulating screen is a big plus, along with the touch screen and additional focal points (19 vs 11) and built-in mic jack. My one grip would be the AA filter ... I would like to see Canon remove the AA filter. Nonetheless, given the price I think you got a good deal and would stay the course:).
I love this video it's really helped me to see the capabilities of the camera please ensure you make more videos like this they're immeasurably useful!
Tried the Nikon D5500 and had the 18-55 lense, but I/we didn't like it. We have been regular Canon users before the Nikon. -That might be one main issue. So we're concidering this camera now (EOS 750D) - The last Canon we had was EOS 600D. - We want the 18-135 stm lense to it. Do you think it's a good buy? tnx for a nice video!
Hello and thanks for the post/question:). I like the versatility of the 18-135 and the stm feature is great in my opinion. The D5500 is a great camera but I know what you mean ... if you come from the Canon world, it is different (different feel, different menu, etc.):).
Yes... We also concidered the EOS 760D, but it was almost 100$ more than the 750D and I don't really see us needing the LCD display and the scroll wheel option that the EOS 760D has. - So I think we will go for the 750 with the objective mentioned.
Came here to decide if this camera would be a good upgrade for my wife, but stayed for my own interest. Fantastic video! I subscribed and am looking forward to watching the rest of your videos. Best,
Well done. Indeed, the Nikon D5500 is less expensive, has more features and better WiFi, shoots 1080P at 60fps and does NOT have that nasty, sharpness and detail killing low-pass filter in front of the sensor. Even if you started off with Canon, I'd recommend ditching them and going with Nikon, unless you have a large investment in lenses (and maybe even then).
Hello Patrick and thank you for the feedback/comment!:) I agree on all points made:). The Canon STM lenses are great for video, so look for the Nikon AF-P lenses if you down the D5500 path and want to shoot video w/ AF. I also feel the Canon line in general does a good job at rendering color. Nonetheless, would have been nice to see 1080p at 60fps:).
I apologize if I mentioned this before, but I strongly suspect that Canon is including a firmware correction for their low-pass filter sharpness problems in those STM lenses, and not telling us. People are reporting "L" lens results from the STM 55-250, and that just makes no sense for a $300 lens otherwise. If this is so, they should release it to everyone, but with Canon I wouldn't hold my breath. My D5500 is on it's way, along with a Sigma 17- 50 f/2.8.
Thank you for the additional feedback:). Curious to see if/when Canon will address the AA filter. I also suspect a firmware update could resolve the auto ISO cap I discovered/mentioned (this should extend to the max native ISO IMO). Enjoy the D5500 and nice choice on the lens!:)
Here's a little snippet from the Canon Web site: Low-pass filter effect cancellation For photographers wanting the ultimate in high resolution capture, the EOS 5DS R camera has a low-pass filter* (LPF) effect cancellation. While a low-pass filter is useful to reduce color artifacts and moiré typical with digital capture, it also reduces detail at the pixel level. With the LPF disabled, the EOS 5DS R takes full advantage of the original resolving power of the camera's 50.6 Megapixel sensor. More detail is captured and retained in the original image, perfect for landscape and commercial applications where pixel-level detail is scrutinized and when the sharpest possible image is needed. So what about the rest of us Canon?
Thanks for the post/question:). I might lean towards the 200d ( also known as the SL2 - amzn.to/2UZODJ9 ). The 200d offers a higher max ISO, built-in time lapse, higher resolution, better battery life, etc.:)
Hey brother, I think I’ve commented on this video before (love your approach, and I have that camera. It’s a good one and I’m really enjoying it.) But I gotta ask: what is the music and who is the artist? I really like it! Thanks.
Thanks for the post/feedback Mike and glad to hear you are enjoying the camera - great camera:). I exchanged messages with the group a couple of years ago - a great group with great music in my opinion:). Music by: J Hacha de Zola (song is 7 League Boots).
Brother, which one do you suggest between eos rabel t6i 750 Canon or Nikon d 3300??? Which one has a better performance and better picture quality?..please answer me strange according to your preference or your choice...
I might lean towards the D3300. The T6i has more to offer for video (external mic port, etc.), but Nikon removed the AA filter (anti-aliasing filter which tends to soften images). In addition, the D3300 has a higher ISO which can be nice under relatively dark situations if needed. The T6i is a great all around camera though, and I like Canon's STM lenses:).
I was really confused on whether to get the canon T6i or the Nikon D5500 and right at the end you answer my question. Thank you for your review it was really good.
I keep coming back to this video, and others of your videos as well. Thanks for your good work. I have this camera, and I have a question about bracketing. I believe when bracketing is set up the camera is supposed to fire off three exposures by holding down the shutter button. But mine doesn’t do that. It will take three bracketed photos, but only with three separate shutter clicks. Not a big deal, but I wonder if I’m doing something wrong. Thanks again.
Thanks for the post/question Mike:). Sounds like you are on the right path although I believe you can also hold down the shutter button until all 3 images are captured.
Hello from your neighbor over in Ohio! I have family in Carmel. Its a beautiful town! I am looking at one of these used and checked your buying guide. Do you still reccomend this camera today?
Thanks for the post and welcome from Carmel!:) I have been to Ohio many times to visit the Air Force museum (which is awesome), Kings Island, and Cedar Point!:) Yes, this camera is still relevant today in my opinion although the T7i is another consideration (a nice follow-up to the T6i).
Yes, I feel feel the T6i or T7i would be a great first choice if wanting to stay with Canon. Both are good/solid and take great video (Canon did a great job with their STM lenses).
I am stuck between Nikon d5500 and canon 750d. I am a beginner and want to buy camera for landscape, indoor and portrait photography. I like canon's live view feature.Which camera should I go with.
I thought you presented a wonderful review of this Canon camera. I do have the Canon EOS Rebel t5 and have been enjoying it a great deal. The only part that I take issue with is that folks have a tendency to label the t5 as a beginners camera. I believe it is far beyond a start up camera as I do with the Canon T6i. Both are very reliable, solid build and produce excellent results. At best I would say that the Canon t6i is squarely between intermediate and advanced levels. I do have both the Canon EF-S 18~55mm IS, II lens and the Canon EF-S 55~250mm IS, II Lens. I am truly impressed with the rapid auto focus on both and also with the awesome IS Image Stabilization system. Thanks again for a very thorough and comprehensive review. Tony.
Thanks for the post/feedback Tony:). You bring up an interesting point ... what is a beginners camera? I would not consider the t5, t6, etc. beginner camera simply because of all the available features. Many photographers might consider the t5, t6, etc. to be an entry level camera which is different than a beginner camera. Entry level simply meaning the first step/line in the world of DSLRs. Entry level cameras are fully capable which why I have created many videos using them. I want people to know they do not need an expensive DSLR to take great shots:).
Hello and thanks for the post/feedback!:) I used a Sony a5100 to shoot this video. In addition, I used a Zoom H1 along with a cheap lavaliere mic:). Here is a quick video on the Zoom H1 and lavaliere mic - ua-cam.com/video/4StJ6QmYvpQ/v-deo.html
Thanks for this review sir..... I’ve an old EOS 350d which I’ve had since 2004.... I’ve seen mint condition 750d would this be a good upgrade as they are very affordable now...... hope you don’t mind me asking.....regards Fred
You mentioned in the video that Canon is good at their color rendering, is it the same as Nikon D5300? Honestly, back then I was considering Nikon D5300 but after watching this and other reviews of Canon T6i (also watched some reviews about Nikon D5300 as well) I' am really considering buying this camera instead of Nikon D5300. It's 2019 and is it still good to buy a T6i? Can't go beyond this camera's price range and I really think this one (or Nikon D5300) will satisfy me.
The T6i is a solid choice. I like Canon's STM lenses for video but might lean towards the d5300 for photos:). Nikon removed the AA filter (this is the anti-aliasing filter which tends to soften images slightly).
This is really a nice video and really like the way you presented it. I'm wondering between Nikon D5300 and Canon 750D that which camera I should buy... In this video sample images are really good in terms of clarity, but I am confused with these two above mentioned cameras.
Thanks for the post/feedback!:) They are both very close/good and I give a slight edge to the D5300 for a couple of reasons. 1 - the D5300 lacks the AA filter. The AA filter tends to render slightly softer images so having a camera without the filter is nice:). 2 - the D5300 has more focal points. This is not a huge deal for me but perhaps worth noting for some. 3 - better battery life (600 shots vs 440).
Thanks for the video, I just purchased this camera refurb from Canon with two lenses for $639. I do like the Nikon d5500 but I had to pull the trigger at this price. I already had a Pentax K10D from about 9 years ago and loved it but time to upgrade and wanted to shoot videos. I also chose canon and pentax because it is what I learned on in high school many eons ago. The video was great, helped me have hope that I made a good choice.
Thanks for the video and glad to be of help:). Sounds like a good deal on the camera - I am a fan of refurbished equipment as well:). The T6i is a nice/solid/capable camera. Take time to practice, practice, practice:).
Great video sir. I am looking to upgrade from my Canon EOS t6 rebel but i cant decide between the t6i or t7i. I would like to do videos but more than likely it will be mostly for photography. Any advice? Thanks! Love your content
Thanks for the feedback and glad to be of help!:) I might lean to the t7i if your budget allows for it. The t7i has a better battery, higher max ISO, more focal points, and built-in time lapse. The image quality will be very similar though:).
Hi , awesome insights on the camera, great picture and background music. Worth subscribing to your channel. I am planning to buy the Canon 750 D but confused about the lens choice. Should I pick 18-55 mm STM or the 18-135 mm STM lens ? and why ? Please help. Thanks.
Thanks for the post and welcome to the channel!:) If given the choice, I would go for the 18-135 STM. The main reason is versatility. I have shot for a long time using various lenses including the standard 18-55. On many occasions I wanted more reach so I would swap to a larger zoom and then back and then back again:). I eventually got the Nikon 18-200 which I have used for years ... it is my primary all-around lens. The 18-135 is a great lens and will satisfy most needs in my opinion.
Which lense are you using to take pictures in this video? Another Question is , Can I use this Lense -Lense model - FE 40mm f/2.8 STM on 750D? Please answer ASAP.
Thanks for the post/question!:) I like them both and might give the edge to the T6i if planning to use it more for video and give the edge to the D3400 if planning to use it more for photos:). Nikon removed the AA filter from the D3400 which is nice (the AA filter is the anti-aliasing filter which tends to soften images). The D3400 does a decent job of video, but I like Canon's STM images for silent auto focus in video.
This was a great video, although i have one question. When you say one of the cons for the T6i is its battery life, how long is the battery life? I've been looking into buying a first DSLR camera so i can shoot videos of nature from night to day and I would like to know if you think this camera has enough battery life to shoot for more than 12+ hours?
Thanks for the post/feedback!:) I have shot a full day of photos on one battery but this will depend upon the usage. If you wanted to leave the camera on a record video most of the time - no, the battery will definitely not last:). You can always purchase extra batteries to keep with you though.
Unfortunately, all cameras will have the same limitation:). In addition, the max amount of video will be capped at 30 mins per continuous recording as this is another limitation imposed by various technological challenges.
I might lean towards the 750d if planning to shoot more video than photos and lean slightly towards the D5600 ( amzn.to/2DJkQ3k ) if planning to shoot more photos than video:).
Absolutely amazing video...I am leaning towards this camera with the 18-135mm lens..although im New to this and have only tried a t6i and D3400 in the store, the focus on the t6i is really winning me over so far
Great videos, but i have some questions, im trying to buy a DSLR camera but i dont know which is better if the Nikon D3400 or the Canon T6i, i already watched 2 of your vids, this and the Nikon D3400 vid, ¿wich camera do you recomend me of this 2?
Thanks for the post/feedback:). Both do a great job in my opinion and it might come down to price. If I had to lean one way or the other, I might lean towards the T6i if you plan to shoot more video and lean towards the D3400 if you plan to shoot more photos. Canon's STM lens is great at auto focus in video mode:).
I have the choice to either buy the 750d for €400 or the 70d for €525. I really want to buy the 50mm STM lens as well but I can (budget-wise) only do so if I buy the 750d. With what choice do you think I will be better off?
Thanks for the post/question:). Many photographers will say to put your money in glass (lenses). Bodies will change but lenses will stay with you (for the most part). If there was a drastic difference between the 750d and 70d, I might lean in one direction vs the other. In this case, they are not too far apart in my opinion:). The 750d has a slight edge over the 70d regarding resolution (24mp vs 20mp). The 70d has a edge over the 750d in battery (920 shots vs 440) and faster max shutter (1/8000 vs 1/4000) and a few other items of less importance in my opinion. If given the choice, I might lean towards the 750d and fixed 50mm (great lens):).
Good video. You seem really down to earth and honest. I'm just getting into the world of cameras and film, more so on the film side. Just using my iPhone 7 now but I'm torn on what to get on a cheaper budget. I like the Sony a6000 but no audio jack and limited screen articulation bothers me. I like the t6i and have found a nice bundle with a rode mic for $749 but I'm not keen on the film quality. Looking into the Panasonic G7 now. Any suggestions? Thanks and you've gained a subscriber!
Hello - welcome to the channel and thank you for the post/feedback!:) I appreciate the comments and glad to be of help!:) Sounds like you have started your quest into the world of DSLRs - an interesting world of creative possibilities:). Based on your post, I have a relatively good understanding of your direction. If you are more into film, consider the G7 when choosing between the T6i and G7. My only concern is battery life (G7 is rated at 350 shots vs 440 on the T6i), sensor size (four thirds vs APS-C on the T6i), and resolution (16 vs 24). If you are more into photos, consider the T6i. I do have another suggestion which should be slightly cheaper than the T6i, does not have the AA filter (making for slightly sharper images), has the APS-C sensor, fully articulating screen, and has a much better battery life (rated at 820 shots) ... consider the Nikon D5500:). Hope this helps!:)
RealWorld well, I've decided on the g7. 4K video really intrigues me as I see it as a way of the future. Plus, id have a decent camera to take pics on but my main focus is video. Found a g7 at Best Buy open box-excellent condition for $630. I'm not 100% for sure if it was a display model (which bother me a bit) but if it's bad I'll just buy the new one for $800. I think $170 is a good saving though. Thanks for you reply!
Sounds like a nice grab!:) I like the open boxes if they are available (I've bought a few open boxes over the years as well). I have yet to have a bad open box:). Most are displays from Best Buy as I know they tend to send various models back to the manufacture for reconditioning ... think about it like this - if you had the camera and modified various settings, tested it, returned it, Best Buy would not simply place it bad on the shelf. Nonetheless, sounds like you got a good deal and are on the right path. Keep in mind that the content contained in my videos typically apply to any DSLR or in this case mirrorless camera:). Take a quick look at my P, S, A, and M modes to break away from the fully auto mode:). Enjoy the camera and practice, practice, practice:).
nice vid man are you using the kitlens in your sample photos right there? I am new to photography and I have this camera, I am wondering if you got a video tutorial for newbies using this cam? cause I’m really confused about shutter speed and aperture and I always get a blurred or dark photo whenever I try to shoot 😔
thanks for the post and glad to be of help!:) i plan to do a deeper dive into this particular camera at some point, but in the meantime i created the following video which might be of help (concepts are the same but i use a nikon for demo): ua-cam.com/video/KTneVSxv1qs/v-deo.html
Thanks for the feedback and question!:) Ahhhh yes, this is a result of using auto ISO:). When set to auto, the camera has the ability to select a value between stops.
The main difference between the two is with the screen:). If you do not need a rotating screen, the D3400 will work fine (they both share the same sensor and resolution):).
Thanks for the post/feedback!:) I have used the Sony a5100 and a6000 (both mirrorless) along with a handful of DSLRs over the years. Mirrorless are interest/capable/powerful cameras in my opinion. The menu system along with the feel is completely different from a traditional DSLR. The biggest challenge is battery life ... if you carry a spare or two, this is not a problem. In addition, I was challenged with the viewfinder on the a6000 (same holds true for most mirrorless cameras). Since mirrorless cameras do not have a mirror to reflect subjects through the lens, they must us a digital display of some sort. If you are new to the world of photographer, this may not be a big deal. If you come from the world of mirrored cameras, you will find this a bit odd ... not to say this is bad, just different/odd:). One big benefit to mirrorless cameras is size ... mirrorless cameras are just as capable as their mirrored counterparts only in a smaller form factor which can be nice. I recently climbed a mountain with my older Nikon D7000 ... a beast of a body which is weather sealed but relatively heavy to carry a looooong way in my opinion:). Nonetheless, I do like the Sony a6000, a6300, and a6500 although they can overheat when shooting long contineous video clips:).
This is a great review, I've finally upgraded from my Nikon3100 and purchased this 😊 I hope I will be able to take pictures half as good as you but I'm mostly using it to film 💖
i have another question which one is better to have 50mm 1.8 or the 50mm 1.4 or do i buy the both of them or i only need one help me out cause they're cheap. my next door neighbor have a camera bag with 10 lens in it and he said he spend over 25,000 dollars and i was holding my head i think i only need 4 lens and call it a day. i can buy an expensive lens and don't know how to use it then i'm screwed and i don't waste money like that. here's what people are telling me they said i need a 24-70 f2.8 17-50 f2.8 and 50mm 1.8 and 18-35 f1.8 cause i already have a zoom lens. remember now my camera doesn't have video so i will get another camera that can shoot video and i will have lenses already.
Thanks for the post/question Jeremy:). Ahhhhh yes, lenses:). 10 is a huge number in my opinion although perhaps needed if the person is a photographer with specialized needs. I have shot for many years and feel the need to only use a few. Regarding 50mm f/1.4 vs f/1.8 - no need to get both:). I would lean towards the f/1.8 as I feel f/1.8 creates solid bokeh with a super narrow depth of field (f/1.4 would be even more so - too narrow IMO). I typically stay in the f/2 range and rarely go down to f/1.8.
@@RealWorld awww man thanks for telling me that i really appreciate the info. so i will buy the canon 50mm 1.8 off amazon for 125. i have another question for you can you tell me a few full frame cameras so i can look them up i know they are expensive but i want to see if i can find some of them used
Glad to be of help!:) I have used a handful of full sensor cameras and currently looking to get in my hands on another. Which one? I like the Sony A7 III for various reasons. If I get my hands on one, I will create a video. I also like the Nikon D750 which you might find a good deal on a used - a solid workhorse IMO:).
The FZ80 seems relatively nice on the surface but note the sensor size - the sensor size is very similar or slightly smaller than the one contained in cell phones (this is the reason for the extreme zoom). The small sensor may not be a huge deal under good lighting conditions, but brace yourself for low light (lots of noise). The max ISO is also limited along with the battery life. Nonetheless, the camera can be fun for extreme zoom shots, etc.
I would lean towards the D5600 for various reasons ... better battery life (820 shots vs 440), higher max ISO (25600 vs 12800), time lapse is included on the D5600, and Nikon removed the AA filter (anti-aliasing filter which tends to soften images). Feel free to follow me on Instragram if you like - instagram.com/realworldpicts I just started the account and plan to post more picts soon:).
Both are solid but I might lean towards the T6i if planning to shoot video and lean towards the D3400 if video is not much of a concern. The T6i will take solid photos but I feel the D3400 has a slight edge. Likewise, the D3400 will take solid video but the T6i has an edge (Canon did a great job with the STM lens which makes video auto focus work well in my opinion).
is it a big difference between Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM AND Canon EOS 750D + 18-55/3,5-6,3 DC ? Because i've watched all these videos and decided to buy Canon EOS 750D + 18-55/3,5-6,3 DC | But i saw now that ive been watching The IS STM one :((
Thanks for the post:). Regarding image quality, there should be no difference. The major difference is lack of image stabilization (the DC version lacks image stabilization (IS)). IS is nice to have but not required.
Great review, sir! I've been using the Samsung NX300 mirror-less camera for product photography and have been planning to switch it up a bit. After days of research, going to the store to feel it in my hand, etc, your video helped me make up my mind. T6i it is! Your have a new subscriber! :) Matt Bills, CEO, Elite Wear
Hello Matt - welcome to the channel and thank you for the feedback!:) I am glad you found the video helpful. I just released my first video is a may series of how-to's (found here: ua-cam.com/video/6I3jtQfd-sU/v-deo.html) ... a good first step for entry level DLSR users. I plan to demo with the Nikon D3400 but the message and logic applies to other cameras as well:).
I've seen some videos where some of the best cellphones take pictures relatively similar in quality as an expensive dslr. Would there be a huge difference in quality comparing the T6i to a Samsung Note 8's camera? Or should I just stick with the Note 8?
Great question which might be worthy of a video:). In short, yes - there is a significant difference between the two:). The major difference is sensor size. The sensor plays a valuable role is capturing information/details from the given shot. The sensor size in a DSLR vs Note 8 or any smartphone is MUCH larger. This will render a much better shot especially in low light situations. If you are taking a landscape shot is bright light and only plan to share the image via cell phones, etc., the two images might appear similar. Noticeable differences will be seen on portraits when wanting to soften the background or shooting in relatively low light. I will use my cell in a pinch or when I want to take a quick photo to share, etc.
Buying myself a first dslr camera, but still doubting between canon 750d/t6i or nikon d5300. Main goal is photos all around. What would you recommend? Thanks for the video too! Gave me great perspective of this camera's possibilities.
If you have any plans to shoot video, I would lean towards the 750d. Canon includes the STM lens in the kit (providing you are getting the kit lens) with is great. If you have no plans to shoot video, I might lean towards the d5300. The d5300 can still shoot video but the focusing system will struggle:).
RealWorld at the moment it's purely photography I'm interested in. But in a few months my first little one will crawl around the house and I think my interests will shift to both photos and video. That's why I'm really torn up about which one😁.
Ahhhhh yes, little ones are a blast (congrats as well!):). I might lean towards the 750d as you will definitely want to capture some video as he or she grows:). The 750d is capable of taking some great shots as well as proven in this video.
RealWorld thank you! 😁 What about the more recent t7i? How does that one compare to the nikon? Iso should be able to shoot higher and has more af points
Since I shot in RAW, I used a small amount of post processing in Lightroom prior to exporting to jpeg for inclusion in the video. The out of camera results are solid though. Feel free to follow me on Instragram if you like - instagram.com/realworldpicts I just started the account and plan to post more picts soon:).
Hello - thank you for the post/question:). That is a fairly good jump in price but for good reason. The 750d is better on many fronts (higher resolutions, more dynamic range, more focal points, etc.) Unfortunately, both cameras have the AA filter included. Most photographers believe the AA filter causes softer images and prefer a camera without the AA filter. The AA filter is not a huge deal in my opinion but one more consideration. Both cameras offer an articulating/rotating screen which is nice and the 750d is great to pull focus (insure the lens has STM which is Canon's silent focus system (which is nice)). If it were me, I would lean towards the 750D with the 18-55mm. If you do not require an articulating screen, consider the Nikon D3300 (used to save money) or the new Nikon D3400. There is little difference between the two camera and they both lack the AA filter:). Here is a review I did on the D3400 - ua-cam.com/video/cORINOaLSTk/v-deo.html
thanks for the post/question ... I give the edge to the D5500. Nikon removed the AA filter which is a good thing. The AA filter tends to soften images and many photographers like to see it removed:).
this is the best camera ever, i bought one like 10 months ago. thats the camera that i use for my channel, this guyswas honest and real with his review.
I know I am a bit late to the party, but I wanted to ask about something :) Is this a good upgrade from the 1100d? I've had that since around 2011/2012, and it just doesn't do it for me anymore :) I've tried the 700d, and I like that one a lot.
Thanks for the post/question and never too late!:) The 750d would be a solid upgrade from the 1100d ... twice the resolution, articulating touch screen, much higher ISO capabilities, etc. etc., etc.:)
So i bought this camera for myself this summer as a gift for myself because I successfully survived my first work. I actually wanted to buy a mirrorless, the Sony A6500 but it's very expensive for me. I want to learn photography so much, and everytime I set my camera on Manual so I could shoot it with different ISO and I have this problem to change it everytime I take picture using the Viewfinder and it turns to be just all white or all black, kinda need to learn nore aye. Lol. But I mean I don't want to let it sit on just Auto Mode so ya know I could play with the ISO. 🤷🏻♀️
Hi Is there a difference between the Canon rebel t6i and kiss x8i? Is it true that the x8i is not a DSRL camera, that it uses a film to store its images instead of a memory card? Please advise. I just bought a x8i on ebay. Regards Joe
Hello - the x8i is another name for the t6i ... they are the same camera. The t6i/x8i is a DSLR and does not use film:). Images are stored on a memory card, etc.
Great job with the video! Got a question, I'm stuck! So I'm new to DSLR and I narrowed it down to Nikon D5300 and Canon Rebel T6i I just don't know which one to buy. I'll be using it mostly outside for nature, wildlife, and family events. Mostly taking pictures but I maybe doing videos in the near future. Can you help me decide?
Thanks for the post/feedback Mark and glad to be of help!:) In this case, I would might lean towards the the D5300 if more focused on photos and towards the T6i if more focused on video. This is not to say the D5300 cannot shoot video nor the T6i cannot shoot photos:). If you plan to shoot any video with the D5300, check to see if the included lens is AF-P. AF-P is Nikon's silent focus system which is somewhat comparable to Canon's STM. If you have the AF-S version, you can still shoot video but the auto focus will hunt and hunt and hunt to lock focus:). Canon's STM lens is great/solid at focusing in my opinion (quick and quiet:)). Nikon removed the AA filter which tends to sharpen images more (AA filter is the anti-aliasing filter). The D5300 has a slightly better battery and built-in time lapse. If you have plans to shoot some video and do not have the AF-P lens, go for the T6i:).
Thanks for the post/question and welcome to the world of DSLRs!:) I have seen the price drop slightly which is good and to be expected as new models are released. The T6i is great for the fully articulating touch screen and ability to pull focus when recording video. Another worthy consideration would be the Nikon D5500 in my opinion (which lacks the AA filter (considered a good thing my many photographers as the AA filter tends to soften images).
Since this is your first DSLR, here is what I would do (for what's worth:)) ... I would look for a used 750d and play with it - practice with it - get to know it - etc. If/When a newer model is released, sell the 750d and purchase new. This will minimize your total cost of ownership (the difference between what you paid and what you sold it for). I started off buying used equipment from friends and family (and still do:)) ... ensure the camera is is good shape and you should be good. When purchasing a used camera, always ask for shutter actuations (how many pictures have been taken (most cameras have the ability to reveal the number)). Camera manufactures rate their cameras how shutter actuations (some are 100k, 150k, 200k, etc.) ... this is only one measure the cameras life and not the end all be all:). Many people will purchase new equipment or will receive something as gift, get very little use out of it, and sell it.
RealWorld Thanks for the advice.😀😀 Will help me a lot. By any chance do you have a tutorial on the basics of dslrs. The manual mode in general(the aperture, shutter speed, iso etc). And all the other basic functions.
Glad to be help!:) I created a couple of videos which might be of some help (I may demo w/ the D3400 but the same logic applies to all entry level cameras including the 750d): Got your first DSLR, now what?: ua-cam.com/video/6I3jtQfd-sU/v-deo.html All about the P, S, A, and M modes: ua-cam.com/video/KTneVSxv1qs/v-deo.html
I would lean towards the D5500:). I D5500 has more focal points, higher ISO, better battery life, and Nikon removed the AA filter from the D5500 (the AA filter is the anti-aliasing filter which tends to cause softer images).
Hi there I got a Nikon D700 with the Nikkor50mm f1.8 G prime lens, is it worth selling this full frame camera for the canon 750D and maybe 2-3 lenses for the money I get by selling my kit? I mainly shoot portraits.
Thanks for the post/question:). In my opinion - yes although I might consider keeping the 50mm f/1.8 as this will work with the D750 as well. The D750 ( amzn.to/2UdtL1G ) is a great/solid full frame camera which has a handful of advantages over the D700 (double the resolution, higher max ISO, rotating screen, better battery, etc.).
Thanks for your answer , but the question was about selling my NIKON D700 to get this canon that you are making the video of :) CANON 750 D, would that be wise , is it a 10 year old full frame camera with 12 mp worth selling to buy this APS-C crop canon?
@@BobLee333 Ahhhhhh LOL - wow, okay I was a bit off!:) Nikon makes a D750 and Canon's international model for the T6i is 750D ... gotcha:). Yes, I might still lean towards the T6i:). The T6i was released on 2015 and has a nice rotating touch screen along with the ability to leverage STM lenses from Canon which are great for AF in video. Brace yourself for a different feel though:). The D700 is a heavy tank of a camera whereas the T6i is a much lighter camera. I recall the first time I got my hands on a modern camera after working with the D7000 for years ... it almost felt like a toy but make no mistake - modern cameras are powerful/capable:).
Thanks for the post:). I might lean towards the 200d. The 200d offers a higher max ISO (25600 vs 12800 (12800 should be fine for most situations though)), better battery life (650 shots vs 440), and the 200d can do time lapse:). Feel free to follow me on Instragram if you like - instagram.com/realworldpicts I just started the account and plan to post more picts soon:).
Update:
Thank you so much. I had no regrets buying this camera. Your video helped a lot while I was testing out the features. I also took photos of my classmates and they loved it. God bless you! You deserve more subscribers 😊🙌
Thanks for the post/feedback and glad to be of help!:) Stay tuned as I have more vids on the way ... the channel is growing - slow but sure:).
unbelievable pics for kit lens
Hello and thanks for the post:). I agree - the kit lens is not bad and did a solid job IMO:).
Great to watch this older review in 2023, I've always loved Canon dslrs, but I bought the T5i (700d in the uk). My 700D has been and still is an amazing camera. Thanks.
Tons of great information!!! Wish I would've seen this video before I bought this camera. But I'm mainly using it for video and it was a huge jump up from my smart phone so I'm still happy. Definitely wish it was 1080p 60fps
Thanks for the post/feedback and glad to be of help!:) The camera will do a solid job for video:). I do not shoot 60fps much unless I need to slow down action.
Just wanted to say I don't usually watch videos this long but you did a great job and I watched it till the end, I wish you could maybe do a video on the best settings for beginners and show how to blur pictures Ik it's aperture mode but it's complicated at times and if possible how did you get the lights on those passing cars to show streaks? Amazing it would be very helpful to me and alot of youtubers ty sir I subbed your channel friend 😀
Thanks for the post/feedback and welcome to the channel!:) I created a couple of other videos that you might find helpful ... ua-cam.com/video/KTneVSxv1qs/v-deo.html (this is all about modes outside of Auto), ua-cam.com/video/TbSgl5e6h7I/v-deo.html (trailing car lights), ua-cam.com/video/P9o3jyPaybw/v-deo.html (steel wool night shots) ... this leverage the Nikon D3400 for the most part but the same logic applies to Canon:).
Thanks for asking this question,,,,,...been finding it hard to ask ,not sure pros have a thing for rookies like (yet to get my t6i Buh I’m pretty infatuated enough to want to know)
Also to have the head lights look like streaks you turn your shutter speed down
Great review. I'll be using my first unit to shoot independent music vids as well as fitness vids mostly, but also some still shots. Let's say at a ratio of 70% vid 30 %photo, which would you recommend?
Thanks for the post/feedback:). If you are on a relatively tight budget and plan to shoot more video than photos, I would consider the T6i or the Nikon D3300 (not 3400 (the 3400 does not have an external mic port)). The T6i comes with an STM lens which is Cannon's silent auto focus lens (works great). Nikon comes with the AF-P (the P is Nikon's silent auto focus lens (works great as well). For better audio consider using a Rode mic or the like. This is a small external boom mic that connects to the external mic port and attached to the external flash slot. You might also consider the Zoom H1 and a cheap lavalere mic (this is what i use - ua-cam.com/video/4StJ6QmYvpQ/v-deo.html).
RealWorld thx. This advice has helped me
RealWorld What do you think of the Sony RX10 iv do you think is a good Camera for all types of taking pictures the only problem you can't change the lens .
He's a nice chap. Makes me like him just watching him speak. Ma shaa Allah
Thanks for the post/feedback Sam!:)
The Nikon D5500 has more focal points (39), BUT the Nikon has just 9 cross-type sensors and the Canon T6i has all 19 focal points as cross-type sensors, and that makes difference if focal points are important for you.
Agreed and good point:). Cross-type will yield better/tighter focus - the more the better especially for moving subjects across the frame. I typically leverage my center focal point and recompose if needed.
RealWorld this video really is going to help me with may New camera I just got I been wanting one Canon EOS t6iD. Thank to may husband, and now thanks to this video.
Glad to be of help!:)
IF YOUR READING THIS KNOW JESÚS LOVE’S YOU
God bless you Eddie and stay the path:).
Love your videos! I think I have narrowed my first DSLR purchase to the Canon T6i and Nikon D5500. I am really struggling with the decision. I will be primarily using for photography...maybe the occasional video. On paper the D5500 seems like a clear winner. I also have read multiple sources who believe Nikon to be a better brand for photos. I know it really depends on the person behind the camera...if it was your best friend or family member asking...would you go T6i or D5500??
I've had this camera for the last 5 years. It was my first DSLR, so I can't compare it to Nikon or any other brand, nor am I interested in doing so. I have bought various Canon EFS/EF lenses for it and have been delighted with both the quality of the lenses and the options they have given me. I have to say that I've had an incredible time with the T6i and would recommend it to anyone interested in dipping their toe into the wonderful world of photography. I'll be moving on soon (probably to the Canon 90D, if I can get the cash together) for three reasons: battery life, frames per second and build. At the end of the day, I can honestly say that owning the T6i has changed my life. I don't work for Canon, by the way :-).
Great shots, by the way!
Thanks for the post/feedback Peter!:) Something I have come to realize over the years is that each major manufacturer makes solid/decent gear for the most part (Canon, Nikon, Sony, Panasonic, Fuji, etc.). The T6i is a solid camera to gain a better understanding in the world of photography. I have been looking at the Sony lineup and may jump soon as well:).
I'm sticking with nikon. I did eleventy billion hours of research before I bought my camera and chose the one I did because it seemed to me that I could do anything with it. I very often ask people in the know if they think I'm into it over my head financially. My plan was to buy lenses and equipment that would transfer over if I wanted to go to a better body. But hey, who am I kidding. How much can I shoot from a wheelchair. I'm an amateur and the best I can hope for is to be a good one. I can do tons of stuff with guys like you around actually. One being macro. I'm rigged up for that fairly well. So thanks for the honest test. My daughter is a photographer, weddings an outdoor and is a cannon girl so we now have a new subject to argue about. How bout another test on that D3400? What a great camera to learn on. The other is shooting in raw. I'm still not with it on that one. This stuff goes whizzing by and I write down a lot of subjects to study but as y'all can clearly see P.T.S.D. AND A.D.D. HAS ITS WAY WITH ME. wave something shiny in front of me and you have me.
Hi Andy and thanks for the post!:) Both Nikon and Canon are great systems in my opinion. I have shot with both and stick with Nikon simply because I have more Nikon lenses:). I created a video on the Nikon D3400 and put it through the paces (not certain you saw it - ua-cam.com/video/cORINOaLSTk/v-deo.html). I have friends that shoot Canon, Nikon, and/or Sony ... always a good discussion:).
I'm so glad I doscovered this channel! I live about 1/2 mile from the park where you were shooting and about that far from downtown where you took your night photos :)
catching up on older comments but very nice to see someone nearby!:)
such a great video for someone who's just purchased this. Love this video, delighted to have come across you through searching reviews of the product. Love it, love the entire video, congrats, thanks for all of the useful, knowledgeable and balanced info. Hat tip to you! 🎩
Thanks for the post/feedback and glad to be of help/inspiration!:) The T6i is a great capable camera. I used the Nikon D3400 for a number of videos simply because I had quick access to one when discussing other topics. Nonetheless, each video can be applied to any camera including the T6i ... most are not camera specific rather they focus on various techniques, etc.
gotta be one of the best reviews on cannont6i that really show video quality
Thanks for the post/feedback!:)
Great review sir. Very good job, thank you.
I'm about to buy my first DSLR and the 750d is one of my options.. Things that hold me back is lack of 60fps at highest res, low battery performance and the fact that this camera is not weather resistant, as I would like to take it with me at the beach and such adventures.
Image quality seems impressively good to me, given the fact that you used the standard, not of such high quality, kit lens.
Did you edit and post process the pictures or are these the actual colours the camera produces? (it's probably the first one, just need to confirm tho hehe)
You have convinced me to buy it.
Excellent review. Bought this camera today and your video made me feel a lot more comfortable with it. Going to primarily use to vlog and take pics of my new grand baby
Stay with it and have lot of fun!:)
Just bought my brand new canon 750d and i'm a newby..your vids helped a lot thanks
Hi there, great video! Were you using the lens which came with the camera?
Thanks for the post/feedback!:) I used the standard kit lens that came with the camera:).
Would you purchase a canon t6i or a nikon 3500 (I have found black friday sales on both)?
I have watched both your reviews, but I still can't decide. I love capturing my family and want room to improve my skills.
Both are solid, but I might lean towards the T6i especially if you plan to capture video with the camera. Canon did a great job with their STM lenses and auto focus system:). Nikon removed the AA filter which is nice as this tends to soften images. If you have no plans to capture video, you might want to consider the D3400 as it should be on sale since the D3500 was just release (the image quality between both will be the same as they share the same sensor and resolution:)).
Thank you so much for direction! I learn a lot from your videos :)
Which one did you go with The Suitto Family?
Thanks for the movie. Is 750D better than 4000D? I now have a 4000D and want to upgrade my camera. Which model do you suggest?
(Consider also economically)
Glad to be of help!:) Yes, the 750D is a nice step-up from the 4000D ... higher max ISO, higher resolution, more focal points, articulating touch screen, etc. :)
@@RealWorld Thanks for the tips.
Unfortunately,4000D has a high noise level and all my photos were rejected by Shutterstock. Even at ISO 100, it has significant noise.
By far the best review video for this camera. I am getting this camera now. The video is very informal
Thanks for the post/feedback and glad to be of help!:) This is a good/solid camera - enjoy!:)
By adding European name of this camera is a display of professionalism from your side, unlike many of the same camera reviews from your fellow Americans..
Thanks for the feedback:). I chat with people all over the world and quickly recognized the naming differences ... a bit confusing at first and not certain why the name changes on various makes and models:).
This is the camera I have pretty much decided on, thanks in large part to your videos.
Thank you for a good honest look.
You have some great music in your videos, by the way!
Thanks for the post/feedback Mike and glad to be of help!:) Enjoy the camera - it is great/solid!:)
you look like John Cena
LOL - too funny, I have heard that before:)
Ahahahahhaa
HAHAHA
Lol
😁😂my jon carry
This video helped me out so so much! I am looking for a great entry level DSLR and this video might have made me choose which one I want! The cons were ok but I could live with it. The photos were just amazing. I love photography and I love to make videos! Keep up the good work! :)
Thanks for the post/feedback and glad to be of help!:)
Would you recommend this one or the Nikon 5600D? I'm really torn between them. I'm a beginner and want to be able to catch good photos and maybe make videos for UA-cam. I've watched both of your reviews...but basically, WiFi and touchscreen are important for me, as well as a good battery life.
Thank you very much!!!✨
Thanks for the post/question Inna!:) I might lean towards the D5600 for various reasons ... more focal points, higher max ISO, better battery life (820 shots vs 440), built-in time lapse, better dynamic range, and Nikon removed the AA filter (anti-aliasing filter which tends to soften images slightly). Canon's STM lenses and AF system are very nice for video though:).
@@RealWorld thank you for the answer!!! After reading some comparison reviews, I think I'm set on the 5600D😊 your reply helped as well, thanks again ❤️
watching this video because i'm buying this camera soon.. was pleasantly surprised to see my hometown during the night shots! carmel represent!!! great review as well.
Hi Emma and thank you for the post/feedback!:) Great to hear from someone who is from the area!:) Carmel is a great place with continued growth. I have heard from a few people who recognize the area which is always nice. I plan to create/produce a video in the next few days on night shots. My goal will be to capture trailing lights. I would like to get a good nightscape of downtown Carmel but may head to Indy:). Enjoy the camera!:)
Good vid. Just got one as an upgrade from my T1i. I will mention a do own a Sony a6000 as well so the T1i wasn't the only camera i had but was the only dslr. Have only taken a couple shots with it so far and I really like it. I know this video is old but was still a good one to watch if you are just getting a T6i
So what gear can u prefer a beginner to start with?? D3400,D3300,D3500,D5300 or the 750D
Hmmmm if you are more into video, I might lean towards the 750D (Canon does a great job with their STM lens and AF). If you are more into photos, I might lean towards the D3400 or D5300 (rotating screen). The D3300 and D3500 are solid as well.
Thank you for this! I loved your shots and how you reviewed it. I am planning to get this as I begin my photography/filmmaking journey and this helped a lot! THANK YOU SO MUCH.
Thanks for the post/feedback and glad to be of help/inspiration!:) This is a good/solid camera ... if I can do it, so can you!:)
Hey Real World, I got the T6I for the same price as the D3400. Is this a better buy? Loved your review by the way.!
Hello Tariq - thank you for the question and feedback!:) Sounds like a great buy on the T6i - nice grab:). The T6i has a few advantages over the D3400 IMO ... the fully articulating screen is a big plus, along with the touch screen and additional focal points (19 vs 11) and built-in mic jack. My one grip would be the AA filter ... I would like to see Canon remove the AA filter. Nonetheless, given the price I think you got a good deal and would stay the course:).
I love this video it's really helped me to see the capabilities of the camera please ensure you make more videos like this they're immeasurably useful!
Thank you for the post/feedback and glad to be of help!:)
RealWorld No problem
Tried the Nikon D5500 and had the 18-55 lense, but I/we didn't like it. We have been regular Canon users before the Nikon. -That might be one main issue. So we're concidering this camera now (EOS 750D) - The last Canon we had was EOS 600D. - We want the 18-135 stm lense to it. Do you think it's a good buy? tnx for a nice video!
Hello and thanks for the post/question:). I like the versatility of the 18-135 and the stm feature is great in my opinion. The D5500 is a great camera but I know what you mean ... if you come from the Canon world, it is different (different feel, different menu, etc.):).
Yes... We also concidered the EOS 760D, but it was almost 100$ more than the 750D and I don't really see us needing the LCD display and the scroll wheel option that the EOS 760D has. - So I think we will go for the 750 with the objective mentioned.
Came here to decide if this camera would be a good upgrade for my wife, but stayed for my own interest. Fantastic video! I subscribed and am looking forward to watching the rest of your videos. Best,
Thanks for the post/feedback David and welcome to the channel!:) I will have more videos on way so stay tuned:).
Which one is better for filming? Canon t6i or Nikon d3400? Im just starting out.
Nice video!!! Between EOS M6 and
750D, which one is worth
I might lean towards the M6 if given the two choices:).
Such a great review. Thank you for taking the time to produce it.
Thanks for the post/feedback!:)
I want to be a photographer just like you. such an art!
Well done. Indeed, the Nikon D5500 is less expensive, has more features and better WiFi, shoots 1080P at 60fps and does NOT have that nasty, sharpness and detail killing low-pass filter in front of the sensor. Even if you started off with Canon, I'd recommend ditching them and going with Nikon, unless you have a large investment in lenses (and maybe even then).
Hello Patrick and thank you for the feedback/comment!:) I agree on all points made:). The Canon STM lenses are great for video, so look for the Nikon AF-P lenses if you down the D5500 path and want to shoot video w/ AF. I also feel the Canon line in general does a good job at rendering color. Nonetheless, would have been nice to see 1080p at 60fps:).
I apologize if I mentioned this before, but I strongly suspect that Canon is including a firmware correction for their low-pass filter sharpness problems in those STM lenses, and not telling us. People are reporting "L" lens results from the STM 55-250, and that just makes no sense for a $300 lens otherwise. If this is so, they should release it to everyone, but with Canon I wouldn't hold my breath. My D5500 is on it's way, along with a Sigma 17- 50 f/2.8.
Thank you for the additional feedback:). Curious to see if/when Canon will address the AA filter. I also suspect a firmware update could resolve the auto ISO cap I discovered/mentioned (this should extend to the max native ISO IMO). Enjoy the D5500 and nice choice on the lens!:)
Here's a little snippet from the Canon Web site: Low-pass filter effect cancellation
For photographers wanting the ultimate in high resolution capture, the EOS 5DS R camera has a low-pass filter* (LPF) effect cancellation. While a low-pass filter is useful to reduce color artifacts and moiré typical with digital capture, it also reduces detail at the pixel level. With the LPF disabled, the EOS 5DS R takes full advantage of the original resolving power of the camera's 50.6 Megapixel sensor. More detail is captured and retained in the original image, perfect for landscape and commercial applications where pixel-level detail is scrutinized and when the sharpest possible image is needed. So what about the rest of us Canon?
Nice find:) ... Canon sees the benefit and now they just need to remove it on rest of they line:).
Sir should I get a 200 d or a 750d ?? Please reply as I am going to buy one of these very soon
Thanks for the post/question:). I might lean towards the 200d ( also known as the SL2 - amzn.to/2UZODJ9 ). The 200d offers a higher max ISO, built-in time lapse, higher resolution, better battery life, etc.:)
Hey brother, I think I’ve commented on this video before (love your approach, and I have that camera. It’s a good one and I’m really enjoying it.)
But I gotta ask: what is the music and who is the artist? I really like it!
Thanks.
Thanks for the post/feedback Mike and glad to hear you are enjoying the camera - great camera:). I exchanged messages with the group a couple of years ago - a great group with great music in my opinion:). Music by: J Hacha de Zola (song is 7 League Boots).
RealWorld Thanks! I will check them out.
Brother, which one do you suggest between eos rabel t6i 750 Canon or Nikon d 3300??? Which one has a better performance and better picture quality?..please answer me strange according to your preference or your choice...
I might lean towards the D3300. The T6i has more to offer for video (external mic port, etc.), but Nikon removed the AA filter (anti-aliasing filter which tends to soften images). In addition, the D3300 has a higher ISO which can be nice under relatively dark situations if needed. The T6i is a great all around camera though, and I like Canon's STM lenses:).
I was really confused on whether to get the canon T6i or the Nikon D5500 and right at the end you answer my question. Thank you for your review it was really good.
Hello - thank you for the post/feedback and glad to be of help!:)
I keep coming back to this video, and others of your videos as well. Thanks for your good work.
I have this camera, and I have a question about bracketing. I believe when bracketing is set up the camera is supposed to fire off three exposures by holding down the shutter button. But mine doesn’t do that. It will take three bracketed photos, but only with three separate shutter clicks.
Not a big deal, but I wonder if I’m doing something wrong.
Thanks again.
Thanks for the post/question Mike:). Sounds like you are on the right path although I believe you can also hold down the shutter button until all 3 images are captured.
RealWorld thank you!
Hello from your neighbor over in Ohio! I have family in Carmel. Its a beautiful town! I am looking at one of these used and checked your buying guide. Do you still reccomend this camera today?
Thanks for the post and welcome from Carmel!:) I have been to Ohio many times to visit the Air Force museum (which is awesome), Kings Island, and Cedar Point!:) Yes, this camera is still relevant today in my opinion although the T7i is another consideration (a nice follow-up to the T6i).
Hello~ I'm planning to buy dslr... What do you think is the best canon dslr for photography/begginer? Or is T7i/T6i good for photography?
Yes, I feel feel the T6i or T7i would be a great first choice if wanting to stay with Canon. Both are good/solid and take great video (Canon did a great job with their STM lenses).
@@RealWorld what about T6?
@@twicecream81 i would lean towards the T6i over the T6 for various reasons (higher resolution, higher max ISO, etc.).
I am stuck between Nikon d5500 and canon 750d. I am a beginner and want to buy camera for landscape, indoor and portrait photography. I like canon's live view feature.Which camera should I go with.
Thanks mate for the video, you convinced me to buy the 750d 👌🏼👌🏼
Glad to be of help - a nice/solid camera:).
I thought you presented a wonderful review of this Canon camera. I do have the Canon EOS Rebel t5 and have been enjoying it a great deal. The only part that I take issue with is that folks have a tendency to label the t5 as a beginners camera. I believe it is far beyond a start up camera as I do with the Canon T6i. Both are very reliable, solid build and produce excellent results. At best I would say that the Canon t6i is squarely between intermediate and advanced levels. I do have both the Canon EF-S 18~55mm IS, II lens and the Canon EF-S 55~250mm IS, II Lens. I am truly impressed with the rapid auto focus on both and also with the awesome IS Image Stabilization system. Thanks again for a very thorough and comprehensive review. Tony.
Thanks for the post/feedback Tony:). You bring up an interesting point ... what is a beginners camera? I would not consider the t5, t6, etc. beginner camera simply because of all the available features. Many photographers might consider the t5, t6, etc. to be an entry level camera which is different than a beginner camera. Entry level simply meaning the first step/line in the world of DSLRs. Entry level cameras are fully capable which why I have created many videos using them. I want people to know they do not need an expensive DSLR to take great shots:).
What camera did you use to shoot the review? And what mic? Thanks. Nice video!
Hello and thanks for the post/feedback!:) I used a Sony a5100 to shoot this video. In addition, I used a Zoom H1 along with a cheap lavaliere mic:). Here is a quick video on the Zoom H1 and lavaliere mic - ua-cam.com/video/4StJ6QmYvpQ/v-deo.html
Thanks for this review sir..... I’ve an old EOS 350d which I’ve had since 2004.... I’ve seen mint condition 750d would this be a good upgrade as they are very affordable now...... hope you don’t mind me asking.....regards Fred
Thanks for the post/question Fred:). Absolutely ... the 750D will be a nice step in the right direction (huge improvement over the 350D:)).
RealWorld .... many thanks ..... got the 750d very pleased ....
nice background music and nice photos ... keep up the good work
You mentioned in the video that Canon is good at their color rendering, is it the same as Nikon D5300?
Honestly, back then I was considering Nikon D5300 but after watching this and other reviews of Canon T6i (also watched some reviews about Nikon D5300 as well) I' am really considering buying this camera instead of Nikon D5300.
It's 2019 and is it still good to buy a T6i? Can't go beyond this camera's price range and I really think this one (or Nikon D5300) will satisfy me.
The T6i is a solid choice. I like Canon's STM lenses for video but might lean towards the d5300 for photos:). Nikon removed the AA filter (this is the anti-aliasing filter which tends to soften images slightly).
@@RealWorld Didn't notice the reply thank you so much for your insight!
So, what’s the best beginner budget entry camera in 2023?
canon 750d or nikon 5300d ..or nikon 5500 which one is better i want image quality and as well as video quality also want good af
I take picture with my 750d but the quality is low only around 5-6 megapixcel. How to make it to the highest?
i typically shoot in raw. nonetheless, if you are shooting in jpeg, ensure you are using the highest quality.
This is really a nice video and really like the way you presented it.
I'm wondering between Nikon D5300 and Canon 750D that which camera I should buy... In this video sample images are really good in terms of clarity, but I am confused with these two above mentioned cameras.
Thanks for the post/feedback!:) They are both very close/good and I give a slight edge to the D5300 for a couple of reasons. 1 - the D5300 lacks the AA filter. The AA filter tends to render slightly softer images so having a camera without the filter is nice:). 2 - the D5300 has more focal points. This is not a huge deal for me but perhaps worth noting for some. 3 - better battery life (600 shots vs 440).
Thanks for the video, I just purchased this camera refurb from Canon with two lenses for $639. I do like the Nikon d5500 but I had to pull the trigger at this price. I already had a Pentax K10D from about 9 years ago and loved it but time to upgrade and wanted to shoot videos. I also chose canon and pentax because it is what I learned on in high school many eons ago.
The video was great, helped me have hope that I made a good choice.
Thanks for the video and glad to be of help:). Sounds like a good deal on the camera - I am a fan of refurbished equipment as well:). The T6i is a nice/solid/capable camera. Take time to practice, practice, practice:).
Great video sir. I am looking to upgrade from my Canon EOS t6 rebel but i cant decide between the t6i or t7i. I would like to do videos but more than likely it will be mostly for photography. Any advice? Thanks! Love your content
Thanks for the feedback and glad to be of help!:) I might lean to the t7i if your budget allows for it. The t7i has a better battery, higher max ISO, more focal points, and built-in time lapse. The image quality will be very similar though:).
Hi , awesome insights on the camera, great picture and background music. Worth subscribing to your channel.
I am planning to buy the Canon 750 D but confused about the lens choice.
Should I pick 18-55 mm STM or the 18-135 mm STM lens ? and why ?
Please help. Thanks.
Thanks for the post and welcome to the channel!:) If given the choice, I would go for the 18-135 STM. The main reason is versatility. I have shot for a long time using various lenses including the standard 18-55. On many occasions I wanted more reach so I would swap to a larger zoom and then back and then back again:). I eventually got the Nikon 18-200 which I have used for years ... it is my primary all-around lens. The 18-135 is a great lens and will satisfy most needs in my opinion.
Thanks a lot for the help, mate. It was so nice of you. : )
Looking forward to seeing more great videos from you.
Another great review packed with lots of important information, nice background music and lovely pictures! I am sharing this for sure.
Thank you for the feedback Bruno!:)
Which lense are you using to take pictures in this video?
Another Question is , Can I use this Lense -Lense model - FE 40mm f/2.8 STM on 750D?
Please answer ASAP.
Hello - I used the 18-55 STM kit lens to take the picts. Regarding the given lens - yes, this lens should work/fit.
hi, how would you compare this agains D3400? does it worth the change? i know you used them both so you can give an honest opinion.
Thanks for the post/question!:) I like them both and might give the edge to the T6i if planning to use it more for video and give the edge to the D3400 if planning to use it more for photos:). Nikon removed the AA filter from the D3400 which is nice (the AA filter is the anti-aliasing filter which tends to soften images). The D3400 does a decent job of video, but I like Canon's STM images for silent auto focus in video.
Thanks, i would keep the D3400 since i like photography more then video at this moment.Regards.
This was a great video, although i have one question. When you say one of the cons for the T6i is its battery life, how long is the battery life? I've been looking into buying a first DSLR camera so i can shoot videos of nature from night to day and I would like to know if you think this camera has enough battery life to shoot for more than 12+ hours?
Thanks for the post/feedback!:) I have shot a full day of photos on one battery but this will depend upon the usage. If you wanted to leave the camera on a record video most of the time - no, the battery will definitely not last:). You can always purchase extra batteries to keep with you though.
I see, then what camera would you recommend for leaving the camera recording video for a long time? Just curious
Unfortunately, all cameras will have the same limitation:). In addition, the max amount of video will be capped at 30 mins per continuous recording as this is another limitation imposed by various technological challenges.
Which is best for just taking photos Nikon d5600 or cannon 750 d
I might lean towards the 750d if planning to shoot more video than photos and lean slightly towards the D5600 ( amzn.to/2DJkQ3k ) if planning to shoot more photos than video:).
Absolutely amazing video...I am leaning towards this camera with the 18-135mm lens..although im New to this and have only tried a t6i and D3400 in the store, the focus on the t6i is really winning me over so far
Thanks for the post/feedback!:) Agreed - I really like the focus mechanism on the T6i:).
Great videos, but i have some questions, im trying to buy a DSLR camera but i dont know which is better if the Nikon D3400 or the Canon T6i, i already watched 2 of your vids, this and the Nikon D3400 vid, ¿wich camera do you recomend me of this 2?
Thanks for the post/feedback:). Both do a great job in my opinion and it might come down to price. If I had to lean one way or the other, I might lean towards the T6i if you plan to shoot more video and lean towards the D3400 if you plan to shoot more photos. Canon's STM lens is great at auto focus in video mode:).
RealWorld what a hard choice, thanks a lot.
I have the choice to either buy the 750d for €400 or the 70d for €525. I really want to buy the 50mm STM lens as well but I can (budget-wise) only do so if I buy the 750d. With what choice do you think I will be better off?
Thanks for the post/question:). Many photographers will say to put your money in glass (lenses). Bodies will change but lenses will stay with you (for the most part). If there was a drastic difference between the 750d and 70d, I might lean in one direction vs the other. In this case, they are not too far apart in my opinion:). The 750d has a slight edge over the 70d regarding resolution (24mp vs 20mp). The 70d has a edge over the 750d in battery (920 shots vs 440) and faster max shutter (1/8000 vs 1/4000) and a few other items of less importance in my opinion. If given the choice, I might lean towards the 750d and fixed 50mm (great lens):).
Hi, which one you recommend, Canon T6i (750D) or Canon T7 (1500D)? Thank you.
I would lean towards the T6i ... rotating touch screen, more focal points, higher max ISO, etc.:)
The fact that you replied to this comment after 2 years of this video being uploaded i just had to subscribe
LOL - welcome to the channel!:) I keep relative close tabs on the channel - simply want to help people:).
Canon 750D or 200S Mark II is better to buy?
a bit late to reply but i might lean towards the 200S Mark II (SL2)
Good video. You seem really down to earth and honest. I'm just getting into the world of cameras and film, more so on the film side. Just using my iPhone 7 now but I'm torn on what to get on a cheaper budget. I like the Sony a6000 but no audio jack and limited screen articulation bothers me. I like the t6i and have found a nice bundle with a rode mic for $749 but I'm not keen on the film quality. Looking into the Panasonic G7 now. Any suggestions? Thanks and you've gained a subscriber!
Hello - welcome to the channel and thank you for the post/feedback!:) I appreciate the comments and glad to be of help!:) Sounds like you have started your quest into the world of DSLRs - an interesting world of creative possibilities:). Based on your post, I have a relatively good understanding of your direction. If you are more into film, consider the G7 when choosing between the T6i and G7. My only concern is battery life (G7 is rated at 350 shots vs 440 on the T6i), sensor size (four thirds vs APS-C on the T6i), and resolution (16 vs 24). If you are more into photos, consider the T6i. I do have another suggestion which should be slightly cheaper than the T6i, does not have the AA filter (making for slightly sharper images), has the APS-C sensor, fully articulating screen, and has a much better battery life (rated at 820 shots) ... consider the Nikon D5500:). Hope this helps!:)
RealWorld well, I've decided on the g7. 4K video really intrigues me as I see it as a way of the future. Plus, id have a decent camera to take pics on but my main focus is video. Found a g7 at Best Buy open box-excellent condition for $630. I'm not 100% for sure if it was a display model (which bother me a bit) but if it's bad I'll just buy the new one for $800. I think $170 is a good saving though. Thanks for you reply!
Sounds like a nice grab!:) I like the open boxes if they are available (I've bought a few open boxes over the years as well). I have yet to have a bad open box:). Most are displays from Best Buy as I know they tend to send various models back to the manufacture for reconditioning ... think about it like this - if you had the camera and modified various settings, tested it, returned it, Best Buy would not simply place it bad on the shelf. Nonetheless, sounds like you got a good deal and are on the right path. Keep in mind that the content contained in my videos typically apply to any DSLR or in this case mirrorless camera:). Take a quick look at my P, S, A, and M modes to break away from the fully auto mode:). Enjoy the camera and practice, practice, practice:).
nice vid man are you using the kitlens in your sample photos right there? I am new to photography and I have this camera, I am wondering if you got a video tutorial for newbies using this cam? cause I’m really confused about shutter speed and aperture and I always get a blurred or dark photo whenever I try to shoot 😔
thanks for the post and glad to be of help!:) i plan to do a deeper dive into this particular camera at some point, but in the meantime i created the following video which might be of help (concepts are the same but i use a nikon for demo): ua-cam.com/video/KTneVSxv1qs/v-deo.html
Good-viideo!-but-I-have-a-question:-how-do-you-have-iso-2000-or-iso-5000-if-this-camera-just-have-100-3200-6400-12500?-you-can't-adjust-the-number-that-you-want.
Thanks for the feedback and question!:) Ahhhh yes, this is a result of using auto ISO:). When set to auto, the camera has the ability to select a value between stops.
sir RealWorld i saw your two Field Test and Review (nikon d3400 & canon 5300d) please suggest me which is best for photography...
The main difference between the two is with the screen:). If you do not need a rotating screen, the D3400 will work fine (they both share the same sensor and resolution):).
@@RealWorld thanks, than i decide to buy Nikon d3400. Thanks for your activities ...
Nice video, Great information. what's your opinion about DSLR and mirrorless? which one do you prefer for excellent pictures. Thanks.
Thanks for the post/feedback!:) I have used the Sony a5100 and a6000 (both mirrorless) along with a handful of DSLRs over the years. Mirrorless are interest/capable/powerful cameras in my opinion. The menu system along with the feel is completely different from a traditional DSLR. The biggest challenge is battery life ... if you carry a spare or two, this is not a problem. In addition, I was challenged with the viewfinder on the a6000 (same holds true for most mirrorless cameras). Since mirrorless cameras do not have a mirror to reflect subjects through the lens, they must us a digital display of some sort. If you are new to the world of photographer, this may not be a big deal. If you come from the world of mirrored cameras, you will find this a bit odd ... not to say this is bad, just different/odd:). One big benefit to mirrorless cameras is size ... mirrorless cameras are just as capable as their mirrored counterparts only in a smaller form factor which can be nice. I recently climbed a mountain with my older Nikon D7000 ... a beast of a body which is weather sealed but relatively heavy to carry a looooong way in my opinion:). Nonetheless, I do like the Sony a6000, a6300, and a6500 although they can overheat when shooting long contineous video clips:).
This is a great review, I've finally upgraded from my Nikon3100 and purchased this 😊 I hope I will be able to take pictures half as good as you but I'm mostly using it to film 💖
Hello Emma - thanks for the post/feedback and glad to be of help!:) This camera should do well in the filming department as well as photos:).
i have another question which one is better to have 50mm 1.8 or the 50mm 1.4 or do i buy the both of them or i only need one help me out cause they're cheap. my next door neighbor have a camera bag with 10 lens in it and he said he spend over 25,000 dollars and i was holding my head i think i only need 4 lens and call it a day. i can buy an expensive lens and don't know how to use it then i'm screwed and i don't waste money like that. here's what people are telling me they said i need a 24-70 f2.8 17-50 f2.8 and 50mm 1.8 and 18-35 f1.8 cause i already have a zoom lens. remember now my camera doesn't have video so i will get another camera that can shoot video and i will have lenses already.
Thanks for the post/question Jeremy:). Ahhhhh yes, lenses:). 10 is a huge number in my opinion although perhaps needed if the person is a photographer with specialized needs. I have shot for many years and feel the need to only use a few. Regarding 50mm f/1.4 vs f/1.8 - no need to get both:). I would lean towards the f/1.8 as I feel f/1.8 creates solid bokeh with a super narrow depth of field (f/1.4 would be even more so - too narrow IMO). I typically stay in the f/2 range and rarely go down to f/1.8.
@@RealWorld awww man thanks for telling me that i really appreciate the info. so i will buy the canon 50mm 1.8 off amazon for 125. i have another question for you can you tell me a few full frame cameras so i can look them up i know they are expensive but i want to see if i can find some of them used
@@RealWorld i want your opinion on the panasonic fz80 zoom camera 1200mm
Glad to be of help!:) I have used a handful of full sensor cameras and currently looking to get in my hands on another. Which one? I like the Sony A7 III for various reasons. If I get my hands on one, I will create a video. I also like the Nikon D750 which you might find a good deal on a used - a solid workhorse IMO:).
The FZ80 seems relatively nice on the surface but note the sensor size - the sensor size is very similar or slightly smaller than the one contained in cell phones (this is the reason for the extreme zoom). The small sensor may not be a huge deal under good lighting conditions, but brace yourself for low light (lots of noise). The max ISO is also limited along with the battery life. Nonetheless, the camera can be fun for extreme zoom shots, etc.
Hi Sir. Ur videos are really helpful and awesome. Please guide me as a beginner Which camera is better and I have to buy. Nikon d5600 or canon d750
I would lean towards the D5600 for various reasons ... better battery life (820 shots vs 440), higher max ISO (25600 vs 12800), time lapse is included on the D5600, and Nikon removed the AA filter (anti-aliasing filter which tends to soften images). Feel free to follow me on Instragram if you like - instagram.com/realworldpicts I just started the account and plan to post more picts soon:).
I’m looking at the Nikon D3400 or the Canon T6i. I have a budget of 825 so I need help with what would be more bang for my buck
I’m using this mainly for photography
Both are solid but I might lean towards the T6i if planning to shoot video and lean towards the D3400 if video is not much of a concern. The T6i will take solid photos but I feel the D3400 has a slight edge. Likewise, the D3400 will take solid video but the T6i has an edge (Canon did a great job with the STM lens which makes video auto focus work well in my opinion).
is it a big difference between Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM AND Canon EOS 750D + 18-55/3,5-6,3 DC ? Because i've watched all these videos and decided to buy Canon EOS 750D + 18-55/3,5-6,3 DC | But i saw now that ive been watching The IS STM one :((
Thanks for the post:). Regarding image quality, there should be no difference. The major difference is lack of image stabilization (the DC version lacks image stabilization (IS)). IS is nice to have but not required.
Great review, sir! I've been using the Samsung NX300 mirror-less camera for product photography and have been planning to switch it up a bit. After days of research, going to the store to feel it in my hand, etc, your video helped me make up my mind. T6i it is! Your have a new subscriber! :) Matt Bills, CEO, Elite Wear
Hello Matt - welcome to the channel and thank you for the feedback!:) I am glad you found the video helpful. I just released my first video is a may series of how-to's (found here: ua-cam.com/video/6I3jtQfd-sU/v-deo.html) ... a good first step for entry level DLSR users. I plan to demo with the Nikon D3400 but the message and logic applies to other cameras as well:).
I've seen some videos where some of the best cellphones take pictures relatively similar in quality as an expensive dslr. Would there be a huge difference in quality comparing the T6i to a Samsung Note 8's camera? Or should I just stick with the Note 8?
Great question which might be worthy of a video:). In short, yes - there is a significant difference between the two:). The major difference is sensor size. The sensor plays a valuable role is capturing information/details from the given shot. The sensor size in a DSLR vs Note 8 or any smartphone is MUCH larger. This will render a much better shot especially in low light situations. If you are taking a landscape shot is bright light and only plan to share the image via cell phones, etc., the two images might appear similar. Noticeable differences will be seen on portraits when wanting to soften the background or shooting in relatively low light. I will use my cell in a pinch or when I want to take a quick photo to share, etc.
sorry sir I meant to ask Canon 1300d or Nikon d3400 which is better
which is better canon 750d or nikon3400. Please reply i need some advice 😢
I might lean towards the D3400 if you plan to take more photos than video and lean towards the 750d if you plan to take more video than photos:).
@@RealWorld but what if you would do both? which is better??
Buying myself a first dslr camera, but still doubting between canon 750d/t6i or nikon d5300. Main goal is photos all around. What would you recommend? Thanks for the video too! Gave me great perspective of this camera's possibilities.
If you have any plans to shoot video, I would lean towards the 750d. Canon includes the STM lens in the kit (providing you are getting the kit lens) with is great. If you have no plans to shoot video, I might lean towards the d5300. The d5300 can still shoot video but the focusing system will struggle:).
RealWorld at the moment it's purely photography I'm interested in. But in a few months my first little one will crawl around the house and I think my interests will shift to both photos and video. That's why I'm really torn up about which one😁.
Ahhhhh yes, little ones are a blast (congrats as well!):). I might lean towards the 750d as you will definitely want to capture some video as he or she grows:). The 750d is capable of taking some great shots as well as proven in this video.
RealWorld thank you! 😁 What about the more recent t7i? How does that one compare to the nikon? Iso should be able to shoot higher and has more af points
If you have extra coin, I might spring for the t7i:). The t7i has a higher max ISO, built-in time lapse, more focal points, and better battery life:).
Did you edit the first pictures you took in this video in photo shop or another editing platform? Or are the pictures just how you took them?
Since I shot in RAW, I used a small amount of post processing in Lightroom prior to exporting to jpeg for inclusion in the video. The out of camera results are solid though. Feel free to follow me on Instragram if you like - instagram.com/realworldpicts I just started the account and plan to post more picts soon:).
RealWorld i see, that makes sense. Thank you !
T6i or the t7 which one is better for videos
Sir, Which is better to buy canon 700d with 18 - 55 mm and 55-250 mm lens for 36000 or canon 750d with only 18-55 mm lens for rupees 47,800
Hello - thank you for the post/question:). That is a fairly good jump in price but for good reason. The 750d is better on many fronts (higher resolutions, more dynamic range, more focal points, etc.) Unfortunately, both cameras have the AA filter included. Most photographers believe the AA filter causes softer images and prefer a camera without the AA filter. The AA filter is not a huge deal in my opinion but one more consideration. Both cameras offer an articulating/rotating screen which is nice and the 750d is great to pull focus (insure the lens has STM which is Canon's silent focus system (which is nice)). If it were me, I would lean towards the 750D with the 18-55mm. If you do not require an articulating screen, consider the Nikon D3300 (used to save money) or the new Nikon D3400. There is little difference between the two camera and they both lack the AA filter:). Here is a review I did on the D3400 - ua-cam.com/video/cORINOaLSTk/v-deo.html
Thanks a lot sir, btw I love Ur videos
between nikon d5500 and canon 750d(t6i) which one would be better for me as a beginner and birds photography??
thanks for the post/question ... I give the edge to the D5500. Nikon removed the AA filter which is a good thing. The AA filter tends to soften images and many photographers like to see it removed:).
Looking up to buy this on Christmas, i really hope you answer, will i be able to make cinematic vids with it?
Thanks for the post/question:). Yes, Cannon packs the STM lens with this kit which is great for a smooth/silent AF.
this is the best camera ever, i bought one like 10 months ago. thats the camera that i use for my channel, this guyswas honest and real with his review.
I know I am a bit late to the party, but I wanted to ask about something :) Is this a good upgrade from the 1100d? I've had that since around 2011/2012, and it just doesn't do it for me anymore :) I've tried the 700d, and I like that one a lot.
Thanks for the post/question and never too late!:) The 750d would be a solid upgrade from the 1100d ... twice the resolution, articulating touch screen, much higher ISO capabilities, etc. etc., etc.:)
So i bought this camera for myself this summer as a gift for myself because I successfully survived my first work. I actually wanted to buy a mirrorless, the Sony A6500 but it's very expensive for me. I want to learn photography so much, and everytime I set my camera on Manual so I could shoot it with different ISO and I have this problem to change it everytime I take picture using the Viewfinder and it turns to be just all white or all black, kinda need to learn nore aye. Lol. But I mean I don't want to let it sit on just Auto Mode so ya know I could play with the ISO. 🤷🏻♀️
Hi
Is there a difference between the Canon rebel t6i and kiss x8i? Is it true that the x8i is not a DSRL camera, that it uses a film to store its images instead of a memory card? Please advise. I just bought a x8i on ebay.
Regards Joe
Hello - the x8i is another name for the t6i ... they are the same camera. The t6i/x8i is a DSLR and does not use film:). Images are stored on a memory card, etc.
Great job with the video! Got a question, I'm stuck! So I'm new to DSLR and I narrowed it down to Nikon D5300 and Canon Rebel T6i I just don't know which one to buy. I'll be using it mostly outside for nature, wildlife, and family events. Mostly taking pictures but I maybe doing videos in the near future. Can you help me decide?
Thanks for the post/feedback Mark and glad to be of help!:) In this case, I would might lean towards the the D5300 if more focused on photos and towards the T6i if more focused on video. This is not to say the D5300 cannot shoot video nor the T6i cannot shoot photos:). If you plan to shoot any video with the D5300, check to see if the included lens is AF-P. AF-P is Nikon's silent focus system which is somewhat comparable to Canon's STM. If you have the AF-S version, you can still shoot video but the auto focus will hunt and hunt and hunt to lock focus:). Canon's STM lens is great/solid at focusing in my opinion (quick and quiet:)). Nikon removed the AA filter which tends to sharpen images more (AA filter is the anti-aliasing filter). The D5300 has a slightly better battery and built-in time lapse. If you have plans to shoot some video and do not have the AF-P lens, go for the T6i:).
Hey. I'm thinking of purchasing my 1st DSLR(mostly probably a canon). Is the canon 750d still a good bang for buck?
Thanks for the post/question and welcome to the world of DSLRs!:) I have seen the price drop slightly which is good and to be expected as new models are released. The T6i is great for the fully articulating touch screen and ability to pull focus when recording video. Another worthy consideration would be the Nikon D5500 in my opinion (which lacks the AA filter (considered a good thing my many photographers as the AA filter tends to soften images).
RealWorld is it worth waiting for a newer model? As it rumoured that the canon 800d will be lunching!!
Since this is your first DSLR, here is what I would do (for what's worth:)) ... I would look for a used 750d and play with it - practice with it - get to know it - etc. If/When a newer model is released, sell the 750d and purchase new. This will minimize your total cost of ownership (the difference between what you paid and what you sold it for). I started off buying used equipment from friends and family (and still do:)) ... ensure the camera is is good shape and you should be good. When purchasing a used camera, always ask for shutter actuations (how many pictures have been taken (most cameras have the ability to reveal the number)). Camera manufactures rate their cameras how shutter actuations (some are 100k, 150k, 200k, etc.) ... this is only one measure the cameras life and not the end all be all:). Many people will purchase new equipment or will receive something as gift, get very little use out of it, and sell it.
RealWorld Thanks for the advice.😀😀 Will help me a lot. By any chance do you have a tutorial on the basics of dslrs. The manual mode in general(the aperture, shutter speed, iso etc). And all the other basic functions.
Glad to be help!:) I created a couple of videos which might be of some help (I may demo w/ the D3400 but the same logic applies to all entry level cameras including the 750d):

Hi, would you recommend the 750D or D5500? great video btw :)
I would lean towards the D5500:). I D5500 has more focal points, higher ISO, better battery life, and Nikon removed the AA filter from the D5500 (the AA filter is the anti-aliasing filter which tends to cause softer images).
Hi there I got a Nikon D700 with the Nikkor50mm f1.8 G prime lens, is it worth selling this full frame camera for the canon 750D and maybe 2-3 lenses for the money I get by selling my kit? I mainly shoot portraits.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks for the post/question:). In my opinion - yes although I might consider keeping the 50mm f/1.8 as this will work with the D750 as well. The D750 ( amzn.to/2UdtL1G ) is a great/solid full frame camera which has a handful of advantages over the D700 (double the resolution, higher max ISO, rotating screen, better battery, etc.).
Thanks for your answer , but the question was about selling my NIKON D700 to get this canon that you are making the video of :) CANON 750 D, would that be wise , is it a 10 year old full frame camera with 12 mp worth selling to buy this APS-C crop canon?
@@BobLee333 Ahhhhhh LOL - wow, okay I was a bit off!:) Nikon makes a D750 and Canon's international model for the T6i is 750D ... gotcha:). Yes, I might still lean towards the T6i:). The T6i was released on 2015 and has a nice rotating touch screen along with the ability to leverage STM lenses from Canon which are great for AF in video. Brace yourself for a different feel though:). The D700 is a heavy tank of a camera whereas the T6i is a much lighter camera. I recall the first time I got my hands on a modern camera after working with the D7000 for years ... it almost felt like a toy but make no mistake - modern cameras are powerful/capable:).
Please help me out sir...i want to buy a Canon camera for mostly photography purposes...and I have two choices 200d and 750d which will be more better
Thanks for the post:). I might lean towards the 200d. The 200d offers a higher max ISO (25600 vs 12800 (12800 should be fine for most situations though)), better battery life (650 shots vs 440), and the 200d can do time lapse:).
