Thanks man! It'll be really fun to do some side by sides over the next day or so. I wish I had a better lens for it though. Stinking island! My sister-in-law just visited us and is a budding TH-camr who's using her phone so I told her she could have it for what I paid for it. I even found a sigma 16 mm for her (on the mainland of course) which I told her to buy so... I know she'll appreciate it and I get to help her on her journey of getting better quality video. You'll have to help me find my next one lol
I need to check your other videos but loved your joy playing with this one. I have this and want to set it up to use vs my webcam 920 for a more cozy setting. thanks for sharing! 🦋
Glad you found the video and thanks for the comment! Unfortunately I didn't keep this camera around too long despite it being fun. But I do my best to make sure my videos are enthusiastic and fun despite the topic so I hope you enjoy or find another topic you're interested in 👊
In the right lighting that little camera was awesome! I didn't have it for very long since I didn't plan on keeping it and just wanted to have some fun with it... but it was great!
That's an interesting idea. I've never shot manual for talking heads... Would you just use focus peaking while recording to be safe? For the price it really does offer some value. I just picked up the Sigma 16mm f1.4 so I'll be running some tests with that next week. Should be fun and interesting!
To be honest, I think at this point our phones are almost as good as this camera. Unless you also had a decent little lens for it, I don't think it's worth the money. It doesn't have the ability to add a mic and the onboard audio is pretty bad. Also Canon discontinued the lens mount so... I just don't think it's a good investment. IF you can get it for dirty cheap it's fun but otherwise I wouldn't recommend it.
It matters more in low light situations. Because you said vlog that often means you'll be outside... And with my testing even smaller sensors look pretty good when there's so much natural light available. But yeah you've got to find something that fits your budget and your style. I'll be curious what you decide!!
Honestly, stick that Sigma 16mm f/1.4 on this camera and it becomes a whole new beast. I have the M200 as a second camera to my R series full-frame, and I absolutely love it.
I only do stills and use the m100 as a compact camera for traveling. I like it a lot but found the low light capability disappointing, even when using the 22mm f2. How do high iso values of your full frame camera compare to the m100?
I can't really speak to photos but for video I mean the full-frame stuff is just insane... especially since I'm using the f1.4 G-Master, it's just wild what it's capable of seeing. With that being said, since I picked up the Sigma 16mm f1.4 it really adds a lot more to that small sensor and makes the colors and shadows look much better. It's quite a lot better than f2 but it's not exciting as a jump as going to full-frame. The size is nice for sure, but if low light is something you really enjoy doing I mean in my opinion, it's rough to compare it to full-frame.
Not sure if you can put Magic Lantern in the M100, you can in the regular M, but with Magic Lantern you could get RAW output on the camera, and with the 16mm f/1.4 it could be a killer camera 😊
TIL about Magic Lantern! Wow, that's gnarly. Yeah you know I think I'm going to get the f1.4 and really test it out. This might be a banging little camera for new creators. I always paid extra for the 4k capabilities of the Sony aps-c stuff but that's a LOT more money and after having done this for awhile now, I don't think it's worth hit (for new creators).
@@Bo_Hazem well this little camera doesn't have a mic input... the one real knock against it I would say. And I'd hate to have to tell newbies to record external audio... I myself have the Deity D3 Pro as well as a Rode VideoMicro. Happy with both of those although the stinking Deity doesn't auto-turn off or on!! Grr
@@Bo_Hazem I have not but that's a good idea. I might have to check out the Sony stuff. Though for right now I like to boom my mic. It's been awhile since I've gone down the audio rabbit hole... I don't really want to record externally but it's not really that big of a deal. Maybe I'll see what kind of Black Friday deals come up (that usually makes the used market better too!).
Thanks my man 👊 I would say the Sony 20mm for sure: amzn.to/46gdKg7 I use the 24mm (amzn.to/46fhkqM) because I usually sit in front of my camera. IF/when I do more vlogging I'll get the 20mm. I don't mind paying a little more for the all the Sony features (like focus breathing) as well as the same thread sizes. How are you liking the zv e1 so far? Have you got all your settings dialed in?
Looks really good. Better stab than my ZV-E10, probably. I bet it trounces the iPhone 15. That would be a banger of a video. Can the iPhone 15 beat a 5-year old $200 Canon camera?
Right? That stabe! And that would be a fun comparison for sure. I need a new phone too but too bad I'm wrapped up in the Android ecosystem! Although... I HAVE been considering making the big swap lol. Appreciate the idea 👊
@@thesahdstudio same here with Android. I'm a big Pixel fanboy. The Pixel 8 is literally releasing tomorrow. I just said iPhone because it's currently the hype.

@@thesahdstudio I am considering it. I have a Pixel 6 pro and I love everything about it except for lowlight video. My son wants a new phone so I'm considering getting the 8 and giving him my Pixel 6. I don't enjoy Apple's IOS operating system nor their walled garden. I like the freedom Android gives you to use either better or less expensive alternatives from multiple vendors. Apple products might be slightly better in some ways (unfortunately video) and they have some accessories like AirTags that Android doesn't have a good alternative to but it doesn't justify double or more the cost overall. IOS has a significant advantage for people building apps. It's more simple than doing it on Android, and you can see this when vendors like BlackMagic will make the IOS app way sooner than they make the Android app.
@@TimBrownTown I agree with everything you are saying! My draw to the Apple ecosystem is for the computers (and air dropping files seems cool) as the M1/M2 chips look dynamite for editing... and getting that kind of editing speed on a laptop would be pretty cool. But I don't know if they make a laptop big enough for me. I like'em biiiggg. Plus if they did, it would no joke probably cost $5,000... it's just too much. The chat apps etc.. seem nice too, although Whatsapp is fine. Out of curiosity what chat app do you use with your family?
I'm deciding between buying this used camera for $250 or the new zv e10 for $700, which one would you recommend for 1080p music videos? Also great video 🙏🏻
Thanks! Well if I were you I would see what lens options are available before deciding on the body. The lens you get will ultimately matter more for the look you want. I do think the e10 is a little more future proof with having the 4k option, and it will have better autofocus and video features for sure... but if you are just starting out and really want to keep the money tight, and know you will only ever shoot at 1080p, then the Canon isn't a bad option. Ok, having talked myself through my thoughts process, I think since Canon killed off the EF-M lenses and it's essentially a dead ecosystem, the Sony is a much safer bet. If/when you eventually upgrade, it will be much easier to sell the Sony camera/lenses for what you paid for them, so I say go Sony!
@@felixfrankmusic But then you're still investing in a dead ecosystem with the adapter which will be much harder to sell in the future. For me personally, resell-ability is a big part of the equation. I think it depends on what kind of person you are... I think you will out grow the M100 much faster than the zv-e10. When/if you do outgrow it and want to trade up, it will be difficult to sell the Canon (I just went through this)... where it's very easy to sell the Sony. The more I think about it the harder it really is to recommend the Canon. Plus it doesn't have Mic input... so you would have to get an external audio source which you might have anyway, but still, it's always nice to plug in directly to the camera.
Thanks for the positive vibes! I totally would have but I sold it already :( In all honesty, since they have discontinued the ef-m lens mount I'm not sure I would recommend this camera... but with that being said for the right price it's still good. I would suggest something that is capable of 4k and has a mic input. A mic input is really nice to have as the onboard audio isn't great. I love using a Rode Micro... the sound really bumps up the quality.
@@gilcarvalhopro1249 yeah it looks good right? I mean when you watch on a big screen (like I do) I'm not sure it can keep up... but most people don't watch TH-cam on a big screen so what's the point of overbuying a camera for most people??
Sorry I don't quite know what you are trying to say... I bought it on Facebook marketplace so depending on where you live, you might want to check that, or other websites that sell used stuff (eBay?).
There are other cameras like it... The Sony a5000 series are great too. Check out similar cameras by Googling it then see if you can find a good used one in your area!
I bought a used on Facebook Marketplace. Sometimes especially now that the camera is discontinued you might be able to find items like that for cheaper. I'm not sure I would buy it or recommend it at this point but it's still a good little camera with the right lens.
Tough call... I haven't used the a6000 but I am a big fan of Sony and have owned multiple Sony a6400's. What is your goal with the camera, just pictures and occasional video? Will you get a lens or just buy with a kit lens?
To be honest I haven't tried the a6000 so I really don't know. I think they'll both do the trick. They both don't have audio inputs or shoot in 4k. So you'd have to record the audio externally if you want a better sound which is pretty important. Also with the footage you could upscale to 4K just to sharpen it a little bit more as the TH-cam allows for high quality containers with 4K videos but.... If you're just learning and trying to get the hang of taking pictures and shooting video I think they're both just fine. Whatever you can get the better deal on and get the better lens with is the one you should get.
@@thesahdstudioHi. I have a question, did you had any problem shooting over night with Sony a6400 ??? Do you need tripod ? I ask you this because a6400 doesnt has IBIS.
@@deckoizkraja3107 hi! I'm not sure what you mean by shooting overnight? Yeah the handheld shooting with the a6400 is not great especially with a non-Sony lens. Who is definitely one of the reasons why I switched cameras. The quality on a tripod is fantastic!
I bought my M50 as my first camera, and I seriously regret investing in a mount that officially died a little bit after a year after I bought in. Nobody is making new glass for it. Even my M6 Mkii, which is my baby, is not a body I would recommend, and it's all because Canon abandoned it. I guess If somebody can find a M100 with a kit lens for CHEAP it might be worth investing in, but as a platform its not worth it IMO.
Well that's interesting and a bit unfortunate. So Canon ditched the ef-m for rf-m? There's probably an adapter but who wants to buy that kind of thing? I'm trying to find cameras that would be big upgrades (for cheap-ish) for new creators and, well I see these m100s can be quite affordable.... I also found a Sigma 16mm for ef-m which I picked up for $360 CAD (about $260USD)... together with the body it cost me about $640 CAD ($465 USD). I am very curious how this will look. My old setup was the Sony a6400 with the Sigma 16mm, but that costs about $1400 CAD ($1020 USD). The only real difference is 4k and a mic input.. and I have a feeling this will be of similar quality once I upscale the footage to 4k. We shall see how it goes soon!
@@thesahdstudio Unfortunately the itty bitty flange distance on the EF-m mount means that there isn't a single system that you can adapt the native glass to. To be honest, had I not found a SPECTACULAR deal on my M6 MkII, I was planning on selling both my M50 and all of my native glass to move to either Sony or Panasonic. Now I'm happy enough with the M6 to keep it as my main camera until I can upgrade to full frame, when it will become a travel cam. But had I known from the start that Papa Canon would leave for cigarettes and never come home I probably would have either gotten a DSLR, gone Micro 4/3 or saved more for a Sony APSC. But you know what they say about hindsight.
@@LunarGlowMedia You got a laugh out of me there at the end. And yeah, it's always annoying when you buy a camera and they release a new one or stop making lenses for it etc... it always seems to happen.
I agree. I think this is an awesome little value camera otherwise but that's a pretty big problem (bad audio). I didn't play around in post with this but I should... Resolve has pretty robust audio editing, I wonder if it's easy to fix.
@@thesahdstudio I sometimes use Luma Fusion but recently have gone to DaVinci Resolve. I’m open to using anything that will fix it. Love your channel BTW
I know it's tough because I paie in Canadian currency but I think I was using USD in the title because that's what the majority of my audience is... I couldn't quite settle on a good headline so just left it 😆
@Discoveredme yeah! Decent autofocus too. It's one of those, if you can snatch it for a great deal it's a decent to have kind of cameras. I wouldn't say go out of your way and get it though.... I'd rather have something with a few more options.like 4k and the ability to add external audio.
Nice! I did a couple videos on it comparing it to something in a completely different league and it did pretty dang good! I ultimately sold it because having Sony and Canon was a tad bit annoying. Part of me wishes I was in the Canon ecosystem instead but I'm happy with where I'm at with my gear. Enjoy the camera and hopefully the videos help!
Please do more of this I have a Canon M100

An inexpensive manual 25mm f/1.8 lens will make it shine for talking head content, but it doesn't have clean HDMI--the m200 and m50mk2 added that.
That's an interesting idea. I've never shot manual for talking heads... Would you just use focus peaking while recording to be safe?

@@LunarGlowMedia You got a laugh out of me there at the end. And yeah, it's always annoying when you buy a camera and they release a new one or stop making lenses for it etc... it always seems to happen.
The video quality is fine, but the audio is absolute garbage. That Canon hiss drives me crazy!
I agree. I think this is an awesome little value camera otherwise but that's a pretty big problem (bad audio). I didn't play around in post with this but I should... Resolve has pretty robust audio editing, I wonder if it's easy to fix.
@@thesahdstudio I would love a tutorial on how to fix the audio. I have an M50 and G7x I don’t use because of the hiss.
I will let you know if I find anything out! What software do you edit with? Just curious.@@mccgre51
@@thesahdstudio I sometimes use Luma Fusion but recently have gone to DaVinci Resolve. I’m open to using anything that will fix it. Love your channel BTW
Confusing title.... $280 is closer to $300 than $200.
I know it's tough because I paie in Canadian currency but I think I was using USD in the title because that's what the majority of my audience is... I couldn't quite settle on a good headline so just left it 😆
Wow not bad really
I know right? It can get the job done for sure.
@@thesahdstudio does it have auto focus
@Discoveredme yeah! Decent autofocus too. It's one of those, if you can snatch it for a great deal it's a decent to have kind of cameras. I wouldn't say go out of your way and get it though.... I'd rather have something with a few more options.like 4k and the ability to add external audio.
there is nothing wrong with the kit lens
Such a good value, absolutely!
I got it for $330 😅 😪
🤣 Hey that's still saving money compared to buying new right?! How do you like using it?
@@thesahdstudio yeah but still I like good deals 😋 I just got it today so that's why I am watching your channel now 😁
Nice! I did a couple videos on it comparing it to something in a completely different league and it did pretty dang good! I ultimately sold it because having Sony and Canon was a tad bit annoying. Part of me wishes I was in the Canon ecosystem instead but I'm happy with where I'm at with my gear. Enjoy the camera and hopefully the videos help!
@@thesahdstudio thanks 😊 🙏🏻
