Just want to say how much I appreciate how much work it takes to create these videos considering you have to research all the options, buy and test products, build the set up, and film the video... Lots of dedicated time!
This made my morning Eric. Thank you so much! These videos take an insane amount of time for reasons you've mentioned. Feels good to know someone gets it! Now on to the next one!
@@dslrvideoshooter I built my all-in-one rolling camera/light/mic set up based on one your videos in this series and it has been the number one time/space saver of my 15 years of filmmaking so I'll forever be in your debt for that!
@@itsmickeyyoung I can't post links in the comments or else they get flagged as spam but if you go onto Caleb's videos and look up "full TH-cam studio on a single stand" it'll pop up. I love mine so much. Saves me hours of set up and breakdown every time I film.
Thank you for doing what you do, you know that your audience has a ton of sources on electronic devices, what we often don't have is a life saver like you when it comes to finding a decent desk or a nifty support solution
Amazing video Caleb! So useful for many TH-camrs! 👊😎 Bonus tip. If you own the original M50 which don't have clean HDMI and want to live stream you can press the info-button until the screen is clean from any information. Now only the auto focus box is shown. To get rid of it, switch to manual settings and refocus. Done! 😀
For the $13 device, if one pulls up the "Configure Video" Properties dialog in OBS there are adjustments for Brightness, contrast Hue and Saturation controls that allow me to fine tune the video without having to make adjustments in camera. I've been using it for almost a year now with no regrets.
For the 15$ capture card you just should change the Video Range to Full and you'll get the same picture as you have from CamLink. Unfortunately the OBS sets Partial Video Range by default for this card. But fortunately you can change it manually if you press the small gear.
Love the comments section as you can get SOOOOOOO MUCH insight when it comes to the nuts and bolts on gear /hardware/ software. This is the solution I was looking for, as I own that popular $15 Capture card. Will be trying it today :) thanks
OMYGOODNESS your Audio Quality in this video is AWESOME!!!! Im sitting here saying to myself, "Is He Using The Same Mic That Is Connected To The Table?" Sounds GREAT!
Awesome job Caleb. You are helping a lot of people with this. Professionally presented, easy to understand, you hit all the questions and the cost that everyone is concerned about. Thank you for Creating content like this that can help relate to beginners and middle class. You have contributed a big part in this changing world. Really appreciate what your doing, thank you.
You are THE GOAT when it comes to presenting innovative ideas that consider your audience's needs, level of complexity, and budget. Zero fluff in this video with amazing pacing, imagery, and information (those comparisons were gold). Seriously.... 10/10, Caleb!
I've seen and enjoyed a number of your videos, but this one is remarkable. Perfect explanations, remarkable gear selection. All well thought out. Great job. Subscribed.
Just want to thank you for the fantastic guides and reviews! I'm a photographer with no video experience and have learned a ton! Right now I'm just looking to up my game for Teams video calls in my home office, so your lighting suggestions have been super helpful. I'm going to start with one of these panels and integrate it with a small softbox.
Outside the US that light is really expensive. In Australia equal to $275US. I’m just finally using some of the stuff from one of your previous videos to set up a desk set up.
That’s an impressive all in one desk setup, I have the same microphone and I’m definitely getting that pop filter, I’ve been looking for a compact one for ages! Thanks man 🙌
Careful when using the CamLink for video only and OBS... The audio is waaay off (+1500ms). At least for me... My audio is plugged directly into my computer and not into my camera.
The Canon M50 and the M50 Mark II are absolutely IDENTICAL. THE ONLY DIFFERENCE IS A FIRMWARE UPDATE. Canon could easily update the regular M50, but chose not to. I suspect Canon wants consumers to consume, and 'force' them to buy the Mark II and make more money (as usual).
Great video Caleb. The Fuji xs-10 with the fantastic kit lens would also be a significant upgrade because it has a webcam built-in. With the Sony, you will need that video capture card.
Webcam utility resolution and details are disappointing. I am sure Canon can do a better job than little Sigma, their FP can output high resolution over USB C no issue.
Yesterday I found a special in the flood light section 2x100w rgb & 2x100w 6000k -- 20% + a bogo thing that I'm not really sure if it was really supposed to happen or if it's just some sort of system glitch but that brought each light down to $8 each lol
Do I need a video desk setup? No. Do I need more Caleb Pike videos on video desk set ups? ABSOLUTELY! Great to have you back Caleb - love your content!
Best channel I've ever found here on youtube about this topic, thank you so much! I would like to ask you to make a video about the table setup for those who need to show the table during the video, this changes the setup a bit because the camera needs a mini tripod and is below the monitor, and the camera lens needs to be perfect to be able to get the table and the person, the size of the table also here at home I got it with 80cm and 90cm deep tables... That's it, just an idea because I'm looking for a kit of this type to show the table and the person. myself doing tarot readings for example. Good morning and keep up your wonderful work.
Great video. Some questions. What microphone did you use when making this video? Mostly the shots of you are without a microphone right in front of your face. What microphone alternatives do you recommend if you don't want to have a microphone in your face?
Wouldn't something like the Elgato Wave microphone be an easier setup. I suppose it does cost more than the mic+mixer. However, once you factor in that $90 lifter wouldn't think the Elgato would be the better option.
Wow, so impressed with this setup. Results are amazing! Also, I just love that you do these kinds of videos. To have someone put together this type of setup and show how it all works is a huge shortcut / hack. I have many of the components already and can easily imagine putting this together with my existing gear!
I would too (I use a 57 and a 7B), but I think the $20 price point was the priority here. IMO the 57 with a windscreen and maybe a shock mount is the absolute best value for most people in most situations.
Hi there, I like everything you're doing and have learned a lot so far from you. I'm in the process of starting a TH-cam training channel and I don't have a huge budget but reasonable enough. I'm not good in electrics but with good guidance and my wife on my side we can get things done. Now, for a new simple TH-cam channel, what type of camera or electronic equipment should I buyer. I'm using your link to buy the table, microphone gear etc...but I need a short list of the items needed to get my channel running. Also, I'll be having Zoom meeting, on screen recording etc., so the equipment should be able to handle both/all.
Very interesting setup...well done. Btw, i love the sound of ur videos....The best! Thanks for sharing the great stuff and i wish u the best. See u in the next video😁😃
Yes!! Very good advice. I actually already had most stuff, so I only needed to get the mic stand. Works like a charm. Why didn't you recommend the Sigma 16mm 1.4 though? It is perfect for the application.
I asked few local shop owners they suggested not to use dummy batteries as that will damage the camera and can be blown aswell Have you faced any issues till now after using this dummy batteries?😊
Killer some more stuff is now in my cart on Amazon... Would love to see recommendations for an interface & studio monitors with this set up. That's one area I don't see as much discussion on I've noticed, plus I'd love a Caleb Pike solution for mounting the studio monitors to the right height ;)
Just wondering how you compare the FlexSpot desk to the HomeDepot "husky" one in your last desk build? Aside from the FlexSpot being motorized are they pretty similar as far as sturdiness goes? Got a home depot a block away from me ;-)
This whole thing is great, but I HIGHLYYYY advise against people using cheaper dummy battery set ups and risking damaging your camera. Just invest the extra money into getting the official ones from Canon.
Placing the mat light in that softbox is an awesome trick! I wonder if there's a way to replicate that with an LED Panel? Unfortunately, these mat lights are tough to find on a budget and the diffusors for LED panels seem very small
youre the reason i want to live, Caleb! Youre videos just make my every next day worth living!! Youre so awesome. while i just finished one desk setup i see this new video ha ha ha so cool!!
Otherwise great video, but having worked as an audio engineer professionally for a decade, I would avoid buying Behringer gear, or other similarly super low priced stuff. I have had about 2/3 of all of the couple dozen Behringer products I've had, or my workplace has had break within a couple of years, the few products that still work, have scratchy pots or loose connectors... It is cheap for a reason, the components are crap. If you want to save money, in the long run, invest a little more.
Here after seeing Peter McKinnon’s new video… Ur pure class Caleb, and I am actually angry he made no mention of you or Josh (who was inspired by you)…
Hi Caleb. It’s my first comment here. Hope you read it. 1. I own a Canon M50 and EF-M 22 f/2. Great budget combo. When I use it with EOS Webcam Utility, I get 720p resolution. So if anybody gets the camera might use 720p resolution. 2. FetHead is a great tool, but quite expensive. There is an alternative that works great, especially for cheap microphones, it’s called Klark Teknik CT1. I own it and it’s great.
Fantastic job! I've been looking for a good, functional desk set-up and this is everything I wanted and more. Hopefully, I can get this up and running with the spare a6500 I've got lying around now 🤞
I’m slowly building up something similar to this. My buddy told me about this XLR booster if you’re on a tighter budget. Klark Teknik MIC BOOSTER CT 1. $29 at Sweetwater. Check it out.
That Behringer Xm8500 carried me for years! It so solid for the price. Especially for 16 year old minimum wage me who needed multiple mics, it's just such a good value. Also Klark has a fethead alternative for $30 for a more reasonable setup.
I was going to try to get go XLR, but after watching this I realize that $40 Behringer interface could do everything I need with some OBS audio filters

Well thought out video for this particular use case. DSLR Video Shooter is king of these desk setups.
those $15 capture cards are so good.
They only capture at 1080p, but support 4K input. They are the best bang for your buck.
@@mrshaheedmalik yup I use a 4K signal from an Xt3. looks crisp.

Caleb is back ♥️ The brain of youtube studios
Aw thanks!!!

I'm going to start with one of these panels and integrate it with a small softbox.
I love the ideas, great video! It would be cool if you could mod an Elgato key light into that soft box.
Outside the US that light is really expensive. In Australia equal to $275US.
I’m just finally using some of the stuff from one of your previous videos to set up a desk set up.
Just when I said Caleb has been awful quiet....Wham Bam he did it again! Nice video and setup!
That’s an impressive all in one desk setup, I have the same microphone and I’m definitely getting that pop filter, I’ve been looking for a compact one for ages! Thanks man 🙌
Awesome video as always thanks Caleb 😃👍
That monitor saved my day
Slick setup, especially the audio part. 🎙
TH-camrs supporting youtubers.
Thank you so much Curtis!!!
Judd had Judged this video and has found it Judicious.
Bingo. 22mm lens. Exactly the info I was looking for. Thank you!
Nice configuration and selection of gear. I have that desk and can confirm it is a great option.
That is a supremely fantastic setup & very very affordable.
Careful when using the CamLink for video only and OBS... The audio is waaay off (+1500ms). At least for me... My audio is plugged directly into my computer and not into my camera.
Phenomenal, as always: I've already assembled your "monster" on casters now I'll go for this too! Thank you.
Very nice set upp very helpful for me
Thank u
Dude I love how much thought goes into these!
I was hoping for a video like this
Amazing job!
I love the XM8500s. I recommend them all the time and use four of them with a Rodecaster Pro for clients group podcasts (in the BeforeTime (TM))
The Canon M50 and the M50 Mark II are absolutely IDENTICAL. THE ONLY DIFFERENCE IS A FIRMWARE UPDATE. Canon could easily update the regular M50, but chose not to. I suspect Canon wants consumers to consume, and 'force' them to buy the Mark II and make more money (as usual).
Now that is cool.

Amazing Video especially for me because I’m beginner
inspiration to my desk setup!
Creative as always. Top-Notch! 🔥🙌
Nice job! valuable tips, thanks😃
Awesome setup! I have the Behringer Xm8500 on my desk right now. Amazing mic for how cheap it is!
Webcam utility resolution and details are disappointing. I am sure Canon can do a better job than little Sigma, their FP can output high resolution over USB C no issue.
What mouse do you use to edit?
A mouse
this is amazing! Definitely giving me a TON of ideas!
Awesome video! I might give this a go in the coming weeks when I start doing TH-cam again!
Would recommend the Sigma EF-M 16mm f/1.4 for the M50. Huge aperture for low noise, great wide focal length.
Yesterday I found a special in the flood light section 2x100w rgb & 2x100w 6000k -- 20% + a bogo thing that I'm not really sure if it was really supposed to happen or if it's just some sort of system glitch but that brought each light down to $8 each lol
I would just use the blue yeti. Very good mic for 80 bucks used
Please make overhead shoot Setup
That Transition to "Keylight" was just amazing
You did it again! craaazy set up! :D
Very handy video, i was looking to start a TH-cam channel. Good to know in do not need to spend loads
Can you do a video on latency issue when using zoom or facetime with this set up?

I need FedEx to send me a FetHead right now 😌
I have a Falcon Eyes 18TD Light, and I always thought it could use more diffusion. May have to to try the softbox idea!!!
Great video. Some questions. What microphone did you use when making this video? Mostly the shots of you are without a microphone right in front of your face. What microphone alternatives do you recommend if you don't want to have a microphone in your face?
Oktava 0-12-01. Get the hyper cardioid version.

Why didn't you consider Sigma 16mm 1.4 EF-M? It gives wide angle and it's bright

great solution as always, but how do you get around the lag of the elgato camlink while trying to sync with a separate audio source like a USB mic?

Could you upgrade the mic with a Yeti or SM7B ? I am new to creating a studio for live streaming and inspiring. Thanks for sharing this video.
I already have an SM58. I'm assuming it would do as good of or better job than the Behringer?
