It's the same with stills photography, people get obsessed with full frame cameras and $1000+ lenses when really an off camera flash would improve their photos so much for a much smaller outlay.
You made my life easier a few videos ago. I Stopped shooting everything in log and concentrated on getting my light right haven’t had a client complain yet. 4:47
It's completely mind-blowing to think that you can achieve this grade of sharpness and good quality in 1080p. Markus, you are an inspiration. I will try to achieve at least half of this quality on my own business videos! Thanks for the inspiration!
I love the silly videos. Your honesty is perfectly refreshing, and ignoring convention has been my habit since I was a kid, a lesson learned from my dear departed Dad. We were poor, and so we resorted to being creative and resourceful, which I have continued to employ my whole life. I'll be 70 soon. So whether it's making a film, recording music or voiceovers, or photography, learn how to use the tools you have as well as you can and don't let your creativity be stopped.
Many of my videos are 2-3 hours long but they're meant for specific audiences. I remember when guys had that Sony in the field always waiting for them to cool down and missing great activity. One of my favorite cameras ever is the Nikon D70. It doesn't even shoot video.
it's inflated in the us, selling used at $300 with the kit lens, while you get nex-5's for 100 which is only a generation back. i found a beat up 5100 for under 100 in europe, the market was oversaturated by cheap starter cameras here. 💸
prices are up for years as it was praised as a good streaming cam by lots of youtubers, it doesn't overheat if you just send the signal to hdmi. unfortunately, on my sample the hdmi signal looked like upscaled 720p :-/
I’m not into cameras but like watching your videos. Like people who say it as it is. Very honest man and shows you that you can do good photography and videos on a cheap budget. Love your work and keep up the good work.
Markus, i just started watching you after randomly watching and being inspired by your "Who I am" video. And Maybe its not much but there's at least one person in the world who you make smile on a regular basis with your videos. 🙂
Found you 2 days ago and I love these videos, old tech and practical effects are literally the best ever. I hope you never stop making videos and teaching us
Nobody is mentioning the shirt and how perfectly matches the background ? This video was pure exhibitionism , Markushibitionism😂 ( in a great way) of his credo : -You will love difused light ABOVE all - 😉 Awesome video ❤
Markus. I admit to having been one of those guys who look down on old tech the very second something brand new is released. That goes not just for cameras but other hardware as well, like mobile phones, computers etc.. But you have converted me. And know what? I'm really happy you did. Because it has made my life both easier and cheaper. Thanks!❤
Just found your channel today. Really have been enjoying your information... And like your message and style 😊. Just watched before this video your thoughts about cameras and latest and greatest where you contemplated shutting down the channel. I could tell your bit of frustration and passion. That's the one that hooked me. Been binge watching now, but am really enjoying the content and message. Looking forward to spending some time here. 😊
I have a Sony A6000 I purchased last year for work and it's my first mirrorless camera. I did the firmware hack to make it record over 30 minutes and about a month ago I recorded 2 bands live shows back to back, 30 minute sets and had no issues with overheating, the one issue I had is that my battery died on the 2nd bands last song. The footage looks great for the lighting not being the best and honestly I love my camera. I don't ever think about upgrading. I was also using the stock 16mm lens. I do say I would like a sigma 16mm 1.4 for lower light shoots.
I've been using Sony a5100 since 2015 and still working great. Still my main camera and captured beautiful memories with it. What I like it the most is its compactness and lightweight. 👍
Thank you for making your videos fun. When I watch your videos I don't feel so burned out. Other people raise the bar higher and higher and higher, more technical things to do, this effect and that effect. Your videos are enjoyable and I like who you are. You're sincere. That is what puts you above so many others. Thank you for your sincerity.
I own 2 a5100s. They are awesome! There are 4 buttons that can be assigned and the zoom button gives those sharp primes some clear image zoom. They have the same sensor and focus as the a6000 and actually came out a few months after the a6000 in 2014. I teach for a 5100 much more than my 6400 just due to the small and simple factor.
Best video I’ve watched from you, it explains so much about our consumer minded world and how we think we have to have the latest and greatest and MOST ExPensive
Markus, I'm not here to learn about the newest and the best, but how to use what I got to get what I want. That's why I'm here. Happy Holidays to you and your awesome wife, good sir!
I just recently got a Sony NEX-5N. It was free!!! Working great, can't wait to take it outdoors since it's been pouring and cloudy this past week. It's similar to the A5300, also one of Sony's first APS-C mirrorless cameras. Has a similar feature set except you don't get the fully flip-up screen, just a tilt screen, and thanks to the E-mount you can stick comically large lenses to it.
Buwahaha!! Love it! Love the announcer voice! Love the in your face humor that slaps all the morons that push everything you just mocked!! Thanks for the morning pick up. You're the best bud! 😂😂😂
I recently recommended this camera to my friend for vlogging. We're both 16 and he didn't care about the specs as long as it could do 1080p. He absolutely loves it and I've been kind of jealous of it despite me having a Lumix G85 with a crap ton more features XD
The characters running around in the credits remind me of Blake Edwards and, the Pink Panther series. Love, love, love it! TH-cam forces the issue on the longer content because a video has to be at least 8 minutes long for another comercial to run. They also forced their agenda on making shorts which I think ruined a bunch of long-form channels.The biggest thing that I take away from watching you is that authenticity (and, talent) will find a way. I'd watch y'all for longer though. I hope radio-voice leads you down the path of making short movies for this channel. I'd love to see them and, I'd love to see how you direct them. Thanks!
I remember using this camera paired with an nx500 from Samsung (forgotten jewel) and the 1080p out of this looked very sharp compared to similar cameras from the same years
Markus, you are right as usual… but while image quality has reached a point of sufficiency it’s the camera ergonomics that’s now key… how can you efficiently do the job. You shoot your footage under controlled environments with excellent studio lighting … so you are showing the camera performance under ideal conditions. Main differentiation point nowadays is how can these cameras perform under non-ideal circumstances under run and gun speed prioritizing quality with efficiency. Love your content! Cheers!
Most of my channel is showing how to get great looking stuff out in the real world, run and gun lighting and audio. Small, portable but powerful, that's my whole channel.
@@MarkusPix I'm with you on that 100% now... I've changed my ways from wasting time and money on heavy, "pro" gear and focusing finally on the smallest, most portable gear I can get for the best quality! Focusing more on lighting now that ever before thanks to your demos! Thanks for all your directions! Cheers!
Hey Markus, you are inspiration personified and I have been a fan of your content since your raw vegan videos and love your books!!🫶🏻 Thank you so much for radiating confidence in what you are doing! I got into videography a few years ago for an entrance exam for sound design! I was the first student to be accepted with an iPhone film. I had nothing else, but a good idea. "You can get great footage with just about anything"..so true on so many levels! Just start!
Almost perfect. I would just adjust the camera one click towards magenta in the settings, it reduces the yellow in the Sony skin tones on their older cameras.
Hi Marcus. Is there a way to attach profoto magnum click or their Fresnel on ad200 without using round head (decrease power) to get 400 wats from ad200? Bulb or fresniel doesn't matter.
One way as I know is to use ad200 with bulb head. Attach Godox AD-S17 (with removed white plastic diffuser as it has silver metallic base) and set in s bracket with one big reflector for bowens mount. But is there a way to attach magnum click to get true 400 wats from ad200 without that bulky way? And is there a way to check if ad-s17 with reflector will give double output with ad200?)
We can just clue some magnets behind the plate of ads17 to attach magnum click. Also there is a godox adapter for normal speedlight to use round head accessory for v1. It's already have magnets. So if it fits ad200 pro fresnel head then we can attach without any problems profoto reflector. But main interest is will ads17 base plate with s bracket and most powerful reflector for big lights give big output?)
I would to hear your voice on a voice over Cartoon. Thank you for sharing. Also the end, entertaining. ❤ Learning on the way. Beautiful camera. Markus!
One of my favourite cameras, I used it all the time, one day it broke, I bought a a6000 second hand but it wasn't the same, heavier, bigger, wish I still had the a5100
I really look forward to your vidzs, Marcus. They are the highlights of the week for me. Great content, great host, top quality honest and clearcut. Love it!!!!
I LOVE when Markus does this type of video. All of the hype that goes into the 'NEWEST,' 'LATEST,' 'GREATEST,' product reviews, is such a joke, and most "influencers" that peddle the newest crap don't even use it, they only do a video for the paycheck. Further, I laugh every time I see the word 'cinematic' in the title of a video. No matter what, it's a YT VIDEO, NOT a cinema release. Most YT videos are watched on 6" screen, not a cinema screen. Very few YT'ers have no idea what it takes to make a true cinematic production. 24 fps and bokeh ain't all there is to it!
I was saying to myself after you were saying using detachable lenses, then in the description said no mic input, no 4k. instantly knew the a5100! Still an insane camera! been thinking about getting one just to use either for like a streaming facecam (Clean HDMI out) or even just a little throw around camera! Seen amazing things about it! Keep up the amazing work! your the best!
beware, I got one for streaming facecam and the clean hdmi out looked much worse than recorded to sd card. looked 720p to me even though everything was set correctly for 1080p
I love using my old G-7 LUMIX. I do admit its not a video camera per say like some others I purchased for that purpose .I bought this to make files out of my art work. the g7 is more of a challenge but when i can get a good shot the footage looks great. I use my old canon power shot ELPH 190 with a Cardalini clamp on the handle bars of my e bike. Thats were i get my wild life video out on the trail.
If there's one thing I've learned from watching your videos where you're using old cameras but getting great footage, good lighting is the key.
Yes! I totally agreed
indeed!
It's the same with stills photography, people get obsessed with full frame cameras and $1000+ lenses when really an off camera flash would improve their photos so much for a much smaller outlay.
and audio, mostly recorded separately
💯%
the cinema was ours today.
All he wants is a Perfect camera…
Always.
Big up camera conspiracies 😊
Where is his pet squirel?
You made my life easier a few videos ago. I Stopped shooting everything in log and concentrated on getting my light right haven’t had a client complain yet. 4:47
Your humour in this video kinda remind me of DJ from Flash FM radio in GTA Vice City game lol so hilarious. Also amazing cameras!
It's completely mind-blowing to think that you can achieve this grade of sharpness and good quality in 1080p. Markus, you are an inspiration. I will try to achieve at least half of this quality on my own business videos! Thanks for the inspiration!
It’s those sigma trio lens
I love the silly videos. Your honesty is perfectly refreshing, and ignoring convention has been my habit since I was a kid, a lesson learned from my dear departed Dad.

GET THE CAMERA NOW! Markus is going to make the camera's price go up.
Operators are standing by.
it's inflated in the us, selling used at $300 with the kit lens, while you get nex-5's for 100 which is only a generation back. i found a beat up 5100 for under 100 in europe, the market was oversaturated by cheap starter cameras here. 💸

Love it. Sound and light plus old cameras with Markus' storytelling = recipe for success. Greets from Berlin (Germany)!
I love how you love old, small cameras! My favorite is currently A Fuji XE2s from 2013 and a manual Ttartisan 25/f2 and I LOVE IT!
We watched your movie this past weekend with family. Had a blast!!💥 thanks
Markus, here’s a fun challenge, dig through your OLDEST camera and do a shoot with it, let’s see how good you can make it look using just lighting 😅
Yes!!!
That would be my Nikon 35mm camera. Wait, I might have an old Bolex somewhere...
@@MarkusPix i am really waiting for it, for real want to see your older stuff :)
@@TobiasRieperGood
What like a 480i DV camcorder from 1985?

Hi, there just letting you know I love your videos so much and keep them coming all Sony I think they are the best so stay safe.

Ha brilliant! I love how you represent the underdogs showing that any camera works in pretty much any situation.
Found you 2 days ago and I love these videos, old tech and practical effects are literally the best ever. I hope you never stop making videos and teaching us

Great! What you think about the Sony SLT a58 ? Best, Stefan
Omg... You hit the nail on the head to tell a story in 5 min.
I agree with your 5 minutes or less rule. One of the reasons I like your channel.
Great video Markus. Love the script, background, shirt, voicing, lighting and above all the little a5100 !
Thanks, I appreciate that considering there was no script, I just turned the camera on and just made it up

Love your work Markus. Thank you for staying awesome :)
woohoooo! Markus did it again! Thank you for this unbiased & non commercialized shared experience. wohooo! Generation saved again :D
Absolutely, depending on one's needs, you can get away with some budget options and get pro results.
Nobody does you like you do you, the essence of genuine entertainment, keep it real Markus, love you man.

Dam good radio voice. And agn, an industry professional telling ppl to use what you can/afford and be purposeful in your content. Good message!
APS-c is a good compromise between sensor size and portability. I have a Sony A-77, (APS-c), but most of my gear is MFT.

So many think big camera specs will make up for lack of creativity.
