As a beginner photographer, it's crucial to understand what you truly need to enhance your skills. In this video, I delve into the essential accessories and tips that can make a significant difference in your photography journey.

    I think a link to the accessories would be great. It makes it easier to do the research and to quickly get the accessories you used.

      Thanks so much for your feedback! I completely agree-it’s something I’ll definitely keep in mind for future videos. When you’re creating content, some details can slip through the cracks, but as I keep improving, I’ll make sure to include product links to make things easier for viewers like you. Appreciate the suggestion!

    I think Cal does great videos that are very informative. However, I think we need links to the accessories over the table of contents. It's easy to move around the video if there is a table of contents captured in the video, but I don't think the TOC is needed in the video description. Links to accessories = Yes, TOC = No.

    I think the (more expensive) Lexar cards are not needed here at all. The camera only supports UHS-I, the one mentioned should be UHS-II. You won't get any benefit from that extra performance the card is capable of.

    • @cal_takes_photos
      @cal_takes_photos 8 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Yes, you are correct. This is a constraint of the X100 VI. However, given the cost of SD cards, I think trying to FUTUREPROOF yourself if possible is never a bad thing So for me personally these SD cards I also use for filming in other cameras and obviously UHS - II is needed there really But I fully appreciate the point and I thank you for the comment

    Hey Cal! :) Thanks for your work, it helps a lot. I have the option to buy silver and black as well. I really like the black, but even with the protective gear, I'm afraid that the top will get scratched easily because of the black color. What is your experience? Of course I would take care of it, but the devil never sleeps. Thanks a lot :)

    • @cal_takes_photos
      @cal_takes_photos 14 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Hey firstly thank you so much for the message I definitely understand your concerns. I had the same fears when I first bought this camera as this was the first camera I’ve ever bought new. And whilst I know a few other creators have had issues with paint peeling, et cetera in hot weather So far, I haven’t had any scratches or imperfections with my camera Of course I keep it in the half of the case at all time But I am constantly pulling in and out bags putting it in drawers and it’s a workhorse camera so I’m definitely not being too careful with it However it’s holding up extremely well although I will say I think unless you’re planning on reselling the camera in the future a few scratches bumps et cetera only adds to the character and look of the camera in my opinion anyway.

  • @owensoft

    Never shoot in burst. Only time to really shoot in burst is if you are in a moving vehicle. When you shoot in burst you get alot of extra pictures that you need to edit later. Shooting single shot takes practice but the worse you can do is either be too early or too late. Burst really robs you of that practice time.

    • @cal_takes_photos
      @cal_takes_photos 27 วันที่ผ่านมา

      I understand your viewpoint here and I fact some else has already mentioned it At the end of the day it’s personal preference and I also think the camera brand you shoot with can determine this When I used to shoot with my Sony, I never shot in single shot mode only burst However, since owning a Fujifilm camera 99% of time I shoot in single shot I think it just fits the feel and ethos of the camera However, if you watch the whole video the point I’m trying to get across is that given a lot of us photographers are not able to always go out and shoot on our own if we’re around other people being able to shoot in burst modes might allow us to get the particular photo we were after . Yes there is more work to go through and combing through those photos afterwards however especially for new beginners there’s more chance of them getting photos that they’re happy with And when you’re starting out in photography, just getting photos that you’re happy with is what most important

    For less money I bought a Nikon Z fc with 16-50 and 24mm f1.7 that has better manual control, at least as good image quality and much more versatility. I considered the X100VI and V, but they just don’t make sense. The VI has more pixels, resulting in more noise and crazy big RAW files. SOOC is a laugh. Even RAW files are processed, nothing comes straight out of a camera.

    • @cal_takes_photos
      @cal_takes_photos หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thanks for sharing your perspective! The Nikon Z fc is definitely a solid choice, and I can see why you’d appreciate the versatility with interchangeable lenses. For me, the X100VI stands out because of its fixed lens and tactile controls-it’s less about versatility and more about simplifying the process, which I find really inspiring for spontaneous, in-the-moment shooting. You’re right that no image is entirely unprocessed, even in RAW, but I think the SOOC appeal with Fujifilm is how much personality you can bake into the images with film simulations. I hope I haven’t rambled too much here!😅

    • @emitsienim
      @emitsienim 20 วันที่ผ่านมา

      The SOOC for this camera is the point, you get the kind of look you want straight out of it rather than having to edit and spend time on that. It's not that it's that most authentic and that isn't the intention either

      Appreciate your perspective. It’s great to hear what works for you with the Q2. I think it really comes down to personal style and what feels natural. For me, shooting in burst occasionally helps capture those fleeting moments, especially in fast-paced environments. But like you said, we’re all different, and that’s the beauty of street photography-it’s so individual. Cheers for sharing your approach!

    Which camera ia best mirrorless or dslr

    • @cal_takes_photos
      @cal_takes_photos หลายเดือนก่อน

      Mirrorless cameras give you the advantage in many different scenarios. They are generally lighter and smaller their DSLR equivalents - often with smaller and lighter lenses to match, too. They bring a comprehensive, modern feature set, such as superlative AF tracking performance, 4K video recording and IBIS, where DSLRs are now starting to fall behind. That said, there's still something to be said for DSLRs - and there's still some life in the old dog yet. On the whole, because they're older and lack EVFs, they tend to be a cheaper proposition than mirrorless cameras, and you can pick up some great bargains. The trade-off is that you might not get the latest tech, but not every photographer needs it. I hope this helps answer your question 😊

For a 40mp sensor with a fixed f/2 lens, built in flash, in body image stabilization, built in ND filter, upgraded video, stellar color science, great form factor and a beautiful looking camera that holds its value, I feel it’s priced very fair.

    The other note about the soft shutter button is that if you drop the camera (like I did) not very far. A foot on to a wood counter top, it can damage the shutter easily. Like mine was lol and that's 400 bucks and 2-3 weeks of being without your camera whilst it's being repaired so. Unless you got a worst strap on. Don't get it. Even then I've heard of it getting bumped in a bag and breaking.

    You should get one of those mics that clips on to your shirt so you don't have to hold it with your hand. You'd be able to hold up five fingers then.

      Haha the funny thing is the mic is question is actually a Lav mic 🎙️ But I’ll definitely think about it for future content Thanks for the suggestion 😊

      Yeah 😅 It’s a wireless microphone I use for client content with a Lav microphone attached Normally I do clip it on or use an external microphone 🎙️ but felt like mixing it up But as always I really appreciate the feedback helps me create better content

    This is my first time watching your video and I loved it. I don't purchase luxury bags and I probably never will, or if I do, it will be pre-loved. But I do buy luxrul occasionally of the styles that I really like. I truly appreciate your comparisons here, which have helped me make a decision about a couple for which I was on the fence. I'll be pulling the trigger now. Thanks for this and your humor.

      Thank you so much for your kind words! I’m really glad you enjoyed the video, and it’s great to hear that the comparisons helped you make a decision. Pre-loved items can be a smart choice, and I totally get being selective with luxury purchases. and feel free to reach out if you ever want more recommendations!
