Just discovered your blog over the weekend, thank you so much for all of the great content!! I purchased the Canon point and shoot a few days ago, but. have now returned it, and bought the M50 yesterday, you are right, it's a completely different world, so much faster, and so much better. Thank you for steering me in the right direction! Looking forward to more info!
This is dopest vlogging camera set up I have seen. I bought the canon g7x mark iii last week and found your channel but ended up returning it because I want to stick with my m50
This video totally sold me on every piece of equipment. My current setup is a canon 80D, Ronin SC, Comica external hotshoe mic, a way heavy 17-55mm 2.8 and all the charging cables and garbage it comes with. I’ve been eyeing the M50 for about a month to scale down the size of cameras and other equipment prepping for a huge motorcycle trip and obviously having less space than normal but not wanting to give up filming some cinematic elements, I think found all I need. Thank you very much. Deuces ✌🏼
I love how in this relationship YOU are the camera nerd and your husband merely helps you as an assistant :D It's a nice change from all the McKinnons out there.
I just bought it ALL!! Thanks to you. LOL. The camera, the wireless go, the lens, the gimbal... ALL of it. Can’t wait to play with my new toy(s). This virus has got me into all types of hobbies!
You convinced me! My G7x mark ii has stopped working and I have been looking around for a better vlogging camera. This one, along with the SIGMA lens will be purchased and used for my new vlogs. Thank you for your informative videos. I am a new subscriber!!
I appreciate this video, I’ve been looking for this exact information for a while, it seems like each video you watch they don’t tell you exactly what you need to hear… This one is perfect.
We just purchased your setup through Amazon using your store! Thank you for the advice and the amazing videos. They truly helped us make a decision in purchasing our vlog gear.
You changed your avatar! Super well done Alicia, great bullet points. I only yet have to get the gimbal...then the world will be complete and the birds shall sing lol.
I did!! Haha after years of consideration I just quickly changed it.. I might change it again soon. It's so stressful because it's so tiny, yet it must be perfect 😆
This video has been super helpful! I just have a quick question- as the m50 required a mount for canon/sigma lenses, do you have a adapter on the camera to use the Sigma lens? And if so, does it add much weight to it? 😊
"Im going to be traveling a lot more this year." ......yea how'd that work out so far lol!! In al seriousness, great video!! I just purchased this to step up my youtube channel!
Brian Diamond haha yep that’s a sad observation but totally true I just broke down and started a channel too! But you know what? this time gives us all the time to reflect, soul search and really figure out ourselves!. So let’s take it in stride and work on improving ourselves !!!
Great stuff! You could have gotten the cold shoe from smallrig and install it on the bottom right corner of the camera (lens facing you) and good to go with 4k 24fps, 1080 120fps with no screen obstruction! Keep the great work!
With a few days old M50, I'm glad I found your reviews. I just ordered this Sigma 16mm for vlogging. And definitely will look into your tutorials on video setup (cheat sheet). I will be starting my youtube channel soon. Thank you!
Wow! You really nailed it with this video. This is a great kit. You covered the pros and cons of each piece of the puzzle, and explained why you made your choice. Is the M50 the best camera in the world? No, but its definitely a great choice for a decent priced vlogging kit. And rinse and repeat for each piece of the kit. I'd love to debate why I chose M43 format, and why I don't need a gimbal (Dual stabilization, etc.), but...in the end, I think this kit is as good as it gets everything considered. I'm definitely going to add that Sigma lens to my kit!! GREAT JOB ALICIA!!
Thanks Art! I do carefully consider each of these elements and what I need before making a decision. It's not the best camera in the world, but it's the most high-performing affordable option that's accessible to more people wanting to learn. I'm so curious about that dual stabilization though! Do you find it works as well as a gimbal for basic stabilization while walking around filming? Perhaps I will experiment with different camera brands and Micro 4/3rds one of these days 😄
@@AMAETV I think filming with dual lens stabilization is a great option, and there is no setup, no device to get in the way, and no *extra cost. The tests I've seen online eg. th-cam.com/video/ptLggJ-Z65M/w-d-xo.html, seem to indicate as much. The catch is (there's always a catch) you'd need to invest in a camera and lens system, eg. Panasonic, that has a stabilized camera body and compatible stabilized lenses. *obviously cost of dual stabilization is included in the cost of the dual stabilized camera and lenses.
I just randomly stumbled upon this video and I just wanted to say it was so well made, very informative and I love the structure with the clearly laid out list and explanations for each. Concise, to the point, just the right amount of smiles. Thank you!
Very cool. I've been debating on which camera I should buy, and I've been watching quite a few review videos on different cameras. This video helped me make my decision.
Thank you for all this information! This was the most helpful blogging video I've watched. I'm preparing a for a 5 year motorcycle trip around the world and the I'm trying to find the magical sweet spot between size, convenience and quality. Your setup (and all your suggestions) seem like a winning combination!
Great video. I recently started thinking about replacing my m50 and even rented a camera. I realized my lil beast has been a workhorse and perfect for my channel. This breaths fresh air into my setup and a great recommendation.
@@AMAETV Thanks for the compliment on the name! Warning shameless plug; I actually made a video about it; th-cam.com/video/mgLM7XHt2nQ/w-d-xo.html. Spoiler alert it was the GH5.
Well, I am so glad I found your channel. We received my M3 one day ago and within hours were getting a refund ticket and ordering an M50. Nothing wrong with the M3 I felt it would be a great intro camera for blogging and then compared the two side by side and it was clear the M50 just offers more bang for the buck. Trying not to go crazy with buying unneeded equipment but building a wish list for sure. Thanks for the great information.
Really helpful video! I film myself fly fishing from about 5 to 25 feet away from the camera so I'm not sure a vloging lense is the best...?? Can you recommend a good lens size for that type of shooting?? Thanks so much!
Your setup is great! I've got the M50 too and I love it so much for vlogging. I am going to check out your other video on the EF-M Sigma lenses. I am curious about how the footage looks between the different lenses in my quest to learn more about this camera, hehe.
Excellent review, Alicia! Just one question. What make is your M50's wireless microphone? I like it because it is so discreet and as what you've said, it is not intimidating.
Definitely can't wait for your balancing video BC I watched the FeiyuTech video and it was.....ok... LOL I get a ton of shake with the camera on the gimbal which I am sure is due to my poor balancing work (as in operator error). So no pressure.....But I'm waiting!! LOL
Haha yes! Their video is interesting.. they don't have a lot of info together yet on how to balance this one so I hope I can help. One thing you can try now is adjusting the motor strength in the app. Set it to high and you might see that it's more balanced than you think. Let me know if you need help finding the setting :)
The balancing video is here!! Leave a comment over there and let me know if this helps, or if you have questions 😊th-cam.com/video/Skxtz9Foauw/w-d-xo.html
I have the same camera and its my first ever DSLR, thanks for the tips! I actually hated the kit lense it came with (15-45mm). That is probably because I used it for just recording me inside and close up talking about current music news rather then outside at a distance. My last video looked great recording but looked awful after transferring! Rookie move with not enough light lol! So I picked up the 22mm due to stating that it does better in this situation. Did some test footage it looks great in my inside environment. P.S. College was a long time ago? Please you dont look a day over 25 haha
Yes, the kit lens will force you to use a higher ISO because the aperture isn’t as large, and that makes footage look crappy. It’s all a learning process 😄 And yes let’s just say I have learned a LOT since college!
I am so happy I found your channel. Just invested in a Canon M50 and now in the process of setting up a mobile rig. I appreciate your insight to consider keeping it light. Thank you! -RA
Good question! Above beginner level like full-frame cameras? The EOS RP is well-loved, but overall I don't think Canon hasn't nailed their full frame mirrorless offerings yet. Of course there is the new 1Dx III if you want huge and expensive, but awesome 😊
Thank you! Not only did you help me with deciding on purchasing the M50, you also saved me from mounting a dead cat on my shoe mount! Hilarious Lol. Forever grateful and saved one of the nine lives. I’ve been using the iPhone with a mic called “Hey Mic” which is a cool setup, but ready to upgrade my quality. So thank you very much.
Watched again! Great premiere and thanks for the shout out! Just put the wireless mic in my cart! The Sigma lens and filter just arrived! Thank you for these excellent informative videos!
Alicia, my wife and I are just starting out on The vloging journey. It just so happens we picked up the M 50 and the gimbal plus . Yes the gimbal is a bear to balance I had to get my daughter to do it for me LOL. I’ve watched a lot of reviews on the M 50 and camera equipment in general. You did an excellent job, clear concise , and clean thank you for that. I look forward to many of your upcoming videos. I hope we can be as clean as you have presented your footage. Happy travels
Hi Mark, So awesome to hear that! And I'm glad the info was helpful. The trick to presenting in a clear and concise way is to plan in advance as much as you can, which isn't always possible with vlogging but it's all about balance- both with message and with the gimbal 😆 Good luck with your channel!
Ohh this was so great! I am currently trying to figure our my vlogging set-up and I think that I will imitate yours. :D That gimbal and that lens... ugh! What a dream, haha. However, I am still torn between the M50 and A6400 but the latter is just a bit pricey. Uff! :)
Just found this video and appreciate the info! Now that the video is almost a year old, do you still love everything just as much as when you filmed it?
Thank you very much. Your videos are amazing! I was planning to buy sony alpha 6400 but I am complete begginer. After watching your vodeo, I may get Canon M50.
Thanks for the review! Searching for new camera for my fishing channel and your setup looks perfect. Need something clear and stable for when I’m on bumpy waters!
i'm getting to know more about my M50 and loving it more right away because of you, i didn't know there's a sigma f1.4 best paired to M50, much thanks to you. love your video btw.
Excellent video, keep up the good work! I have the M50, and it also takes impressive photos. Love your setup, I think you picked out your accessories perfectly, from the Rode mic, the Sigma lens, and gimbal. You outdid yourself with the cell phone monitor 👏🏼 Hoping we can all travel soon, and wishing you much success with your channel.
So good, Alicia!! I will be getting that exact entire set-up! And what a great host and presenter you are! Wonderful warmth and energy and connection - we'll see you on TV soon and then infinity and beyond!! Thanks again for everything you're doing!
Great videos...I was thinking about the M50 but ended up getting a DJI ozmo pocket and have been really happy with it...The small size doesn't draw much attention when I'm making my casino slot play videos....The m50 is still at the top of my list for mirrorless cameras...Thanks for the great content...
Nice! I bet the Osmo Pocket is great.. It would definitely be a great compliment to a larger camera too if you choose to get one in the future. Glad you enjoyed the video!
I had just recently decided to buy the M50 and the new Sigma lens when your channel popped up in my feed! Thank you for this information and for making it easy to understand. I am a new subscriber now!😊
I just found your channel while trying to up my M50 vlogging game a little bit. Just wanted to say thank you for the informational stuff. I'm a camera noob and have been mostly just using auto settings so it's helpful.
Thank you very much for this very informative video. Thank you for making this content. Im new in youtube and I am learning a lot on what equipments to get for my vlog. Thanks
Thanks AMaeTV for this tip especially for a newbie like me.. now I know what to buy and what to consider. I might set up mine liek how you set up up yours because I want it to be minimalistic as well. Thanks and have a great day!
Thanks for all the knowledge I got myself a Canon M 50 as well and just started doing some daily vlogs so the information you have provided is very useful so I had to subscribe to you going to check out the rest of your videos as well because I’m sure there’s some great knowledge in them
Hey Alicia. Totally loved the video. That setup is awesome. Its just like taking your whole studio outside on one hand. I was so impressed I I built almost the same as you have with my M50, Zhiyun crane m2, Samsung galaxy S8+ and my Rode video mic ME. Total control on the smartphone as monitor and flawless execution through the Canon connect app. Sweet. Even auto downloading to the phone. Nice. Take care Alicia. New subscriber here. Ray
Really cool and informative video. Busy looking into a new vlogging setup so this has definitely helped put things in perspective. Thanks a mil - will definitely be checking out the M50.
Great video, thank you. I am starting vlogging and photography. I am a recent subscriber, and already love your videos. I have one quick question, I like the phone mount you used for this Gimball, do you know if it is available? I have a DJI Osmo 3, and I thought you said it was a DJI mount. Thanks again, and I look forward to learning more from your comment. PS: your baby girl is PRECIOUS!! :-)
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS VIDEO 😘 I was deciding on buying the M50 and you definitely just solidified it... I sooo wish I could have this entire setup.... but for now im just getting the camera.... but that gymbal and lens are next on the list...📸🎦
Hey this is great. Just bought an M50 in a bid to prove our bids, also bought the rode Go... But you've really helped with next steps! Going to keep watching :) keep it up!
Thanks Alot Miss Pretty. I was wondering which camera should i use for my blogging on facebook and TH-cam as well. But Trust Me i' pay Attention And Listen To you. You changed my world🤝✌❤. New Follower from 🇬🇭Ghana based In Germany🇩🇪. Thanks alot
Hi Mam, loved your vlogs, very detailed and nice review. Could you please suggest me which one to buy 1. Canon g7x mark ii 2. Canon M50 3.canon 200d ii
If you are looking for 1080p 60fps then go for Canon m50 if you want a vlogging camera with no need of a microphone or additional equipment the go for Canon g7x ii
I use the same set up, with a rode video mic... I had some AF issues with the lens and the same nd filter... Seems like the lens has some difficulties setting the AF right, kinda focus pumping but very slow... Had u have the same experience?
Love this video! Makes so much sense. I will look into those Rode Go mics, very cool. For even better video on youtube, upload at 1080P 60FPS so that youtube gives you the better codec.
Thank you for the recommendation on the Gimbal. I bought a recommended Zhiyun Crane M2 for the Canon M50 but alas it really only works if you use the kit lens. Thank you for letting us know this Gimbal can hold the Sigma 16, that is all I needed to hear! Thank you B&H for an excellent return policy! hehe
Great video as usual. M50 is to me the very best vlogging camera for the price by far. I personnaly prefer the 11-22mm for vlogging because of the size/weight/wider view and IS despite the 4.0 aperture. Also I use a Joby gorillapod and no gimbal as I prefer portability. I add to my kit a rode wireless goans a Manfrotto 8 leds lumimuse. All of this with a smallrig case that sure add some weight but is working fine for me. I have also purchased the sigma 30mm 1.4 for videos and street photography
Sounds like a great setup! What do you like about the Small Rig case that makes it worth the extra weight? I always wonder if I should use one of those.. And really, this gimbal takes up no more room than the gorillapod, I was surprised to find!
@@AMAETV Smallrig cage is aluminium and really light. Gets you a better grip for photography but the best of this cage is that you can add more lights (1 or 2 aputure or manfrotto led lights wich are great for night vlogging), microphone (or rode wireless go) or even a monitor if needed (personally I don't use one because I'm happy with the M50 built monitor. I also use the cage to put a handgrip on so I can make videos with different angles. As for me, the smallrig cage is a must have
Is the M50 also good for photos? And that small mic attachment you showed us on here looked good and a lot better than having the rode mic that is pretty big.

Love your setup, very practical and minimalist. Nice content/vlog as always. Thanks for sharing & God bless!
So GLAD I found this video. Definitely new fan and watching all your vids. Thanks
Excellent video, keep up the good work! I have the M50, and it also takes impressive photos. Love your setup, I think you picked out your accessories perfectly, from the Rode mic, the Sigma lens, and gimbal. You outdid yourself with the cell phone monitor 👏🏼 Hoping we can all travel soon, and wishing you much success with your channel.
So good, Alicia!! I will be getting that exact entire set-up! And what a great host and presenter you are! Wonderful warmth and energy and connection - we'll see you on TV soon and then infinity and beyond!! Thanks again for everything you're doing!
Great videos...I was thinking about the M50 but ended up getting a DJI ozmo pocket and have been really happy with it...The small size doesn't draw much attention when I'm making my casino slot play videos....The m50 is still at the top of my list for mirrorless cameras...Thanks for the great content...
Nice! I bet the Osmo Pocket is great.. It would definitely be a great compliment to a larger camera too if you choose to get one in the future. Glad you enjoyed the video!
I had just recently decided to buy the M50 and the new Sigma lens when your channel popped up in my feed! Thank you for this information and for making it easy to understand. I am a new subscriber now!😊
I just found your channel while trying to up my M50 vlogging game a little bit. Just wanted to say thank you for the informational stuff. I'm a camera noob and have been mostly just using auto settings so it's helpful.
That rotating gimbal feature was dope..never saw that coming.
Thank you very much for this very informative video. Thank you for making this content. Im new in youtube and I am learning a lot on what equipments to get for my vlog. Thanks
Great video. May I know which camera you used to film this video. As you are already holding m50. The video quality is so great that's why I am asking
Such a good review. Really helping me to decide on a vlogging setup to start creating content! Thank you!
Thanks AMaeTV for this tip especially for a newbie like me.. now I know what to buy and what to consider. I might set up mine liek how you set up up yours because I want it to be minimalistic as well. Thanks and have a great day!
I’ve been looking around for a nice setup... and I must admit you made it easy! The M50 with the sigma 16mm looks like the perfect match for me!
Thanks for all the knowledge I got myself a Canon M 50 as well and just started doing some daily vlogs so the information you have provided is very useful so I had to subscribe to you going to check out the rest of your videos as well because I’m sure there’s some great knowledge in them
Hey Alicia. Totally loved the video. That setup is awesome. Its just like taking your whole studio outside on one hand. I was so impressed I I built almost the same as you have with my M50, Zhiyun crane m2, Samsung galaxy S8+ and my Rode video mic ME. Total control on the smartphone as monitor and flawless execution through the Canon connect app. Sweet. Even auto downloading to the phone. Nice. Take care Alicia. New subscriber here. Ray
Very nice alisha wonderful vlogging setup
Really cool and informative video. Busy looking into a new vlogging setup so this has definitely helped put things in perspective. Thanks a mil - will definitely be checking out the M50.
Wow, is great information, Thanks thanks to share with us!!! cheers from Tokyo!! I will buy Cannon M50 soon!!!
Your setup is the best I've seen so far. Thank you for the pointers.
Great video, thank you. I am starting vlogging and photography. I am a recent subscriber, and already love your videos. I have one quick question, I like the phone mount you used for this Gimball, do you know if it is available? I have a DJI Osmo 3, and I thought you said it was a DJI mount. Thanks again, and I look forward to learning more from your comment. PS: your baby girl is PRECIOUS!! :-)
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS VIDEO 😘 I was deciding on buying the M50 and you definitely just solidified it... I sooo wish I could have this entire setup.... but for now im just getting the camera.... but that gymbal and lens are next on the list...📸🎦
Nice! I'm glad the video was helpful. You will LOVE the M50! Definitely go for a Sigma lens next 👍🏼
Great video, I just got an M50 and this was really helpful.
Hey this is great. Just bought an M50 in a bid to prove our bids, also bought the rode Go... But you've really helped with next steps! Going to keep watching :) keep it up!
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS AMAZING REVIEW! you've got one more subscriber, loving your videos, wish you the best!!!!!!!!!!!
I was thinking about getting the M50 just to have a second camera but I read the next version may come out in Sept so I think I’ll wait!
Thanks Alot Miss Pretty.
I was wondering which camera should i use for my blogging on facebook and TH-cam as well.
But Trust Me i' pay Attention And Listen To you. You changed my world🤝✌❤.

Thanks alot
Very well put together video explaining all the gear. You definitely answered a lot of my questions. I’m excited to try this! Thanks!!
Awesome to hear that! Let me know if you come up with any more questions 😃
Hi Mam, loved your vlogs, very detailed and nice review. Could you please suggest me which one to buy
1. Canon g7x mark ii
2. Canon M50
3.canon 200d ii
I mean G7x or M50. Thanks in advance.
If you are looking for 1080p 60fps then go for Canon m50 if you want a vlogging camera with no need of a microphone or additional equipment the go for Canon g7x ii
I use the same set up, with a rode video mic...
I had some AF issues with the lens and the same nd filter... Seems like the lens has some difficulties setting the AF right, kinda focus pumping but very slow... Had u have the same experience?
I was skimping on my set up... but I’m going to get the lens 100% because of you. I’ll let you know how it goes
Awesome!! Yes you will love it. Let me know if you have any questions 😃
Super canon setup:) Really loved it!! Thanks for sharing 😍👍👌🙂
So glad you like it! I have an updated version of this video coming out in just a few weeks so stay tuned 😄
Oh the sigma lense looks soo good!
Yess I agree 😃
@@AMAETV would you rather go for the Canon EF-M 11-22mm lens or the Sigma Lens?
Thank you for your awesome videos!! I just bought myself a Canon m50. Would really love to know what picture profile settings you use?
Keep safe!
Raw and neutral and edit in lightroom, video cinestyle flat and colour grade in final cut.
Great vid 👍 I have the M50, I love it! The sigma and a wireless mic are on my list
Finally I find a gal doing filmmaking content, talking about gear! I’ve seen so many dudes! Keep up the good work and let’s stay connected. 😁👍🏼
Yes!! Thanks for recognizing that 😄It would be great to see more ladies doing filmmaking stuff.. definitely keep in touch!
Yes! I agree.
What’s about an Canon 11-22 mm compared to the one you are saying is awesome here?
The Canon 11-22's largest aperture is 4.0- so you won't get the same low light performance and background blur you get from the 1.4 aperture.
Love this video! Makes so much sense. I will look into those Rode Go mics, very cool. For even better video on youtube, upload at 1080P 60FPS so that youtube gives you the better codec.
Great video on the M50! I just picked up my M50 the other day and appreciate you running through all the items you use here around your setup!
Is it possible to get the video to display fullscreen on a phone with the Canon Camera Connect app?
excellent video. very clear straight forward and thorough
Thank you for the recommendation on the Gimbal. I bought a recommended Zhiyun Crane M2 for the Canon M50 but alas it really only works if you use the kit lens. Thank you for letting us know this Gimbal can hold the Sigma 16, that is all I needed to hear! Thank you B&H for an excellent return policy! hehe
The 16mm Sigma lens is a dream. It's my favourite vlogging lens. The only annoying thing in the ND filter because it's just a bright lens.
Great video. Would this be a good camera to film someone waterskiing? Or is it a better vlog camera?
Amazing video and overview! It helped me a lot!! Thank you for doing this!
Great video as usual. M50 is to me the very best vlogging camera for the price by far. I personnaly prefer the 11-22mm for vlogging because of the size/weight/wider view and IS despite the 4.0 aperture. Also I use a Joby gorillapod and no gimbal as I prefer portability. I add to my kit a rode wireless goans a Manfrotto 8 leds lumimuse. All of this with a smallrig case that sure add some weight but is working fine for me. I have also purchased the sigma 30mm 1.4 for videos and street photography
Sounds like a great setup! What do you like about the Small Rig case that makes it worth the extra weight? I always wonder if I should use one of those.. And really, this gimbal takes up no more room than the gorillapod, I was surprised to find!
@@AMAETV Smallrig cage is aluminium and really light. Gets you a better grip for photography but the best of this cage is that you can add more lights (1 or 2 aputure or manfrotto led lights wich are great for night vlogging), microphone (or rode wireless go) or even a monitor if needed (personally I don't use one because I'm happy with the M50 built monitor. I also use the cage to put a handgrip on so I can make videos with different angles. As for me, the smallrig cage is a must have
So glad I found your channel. We are travel vloggers and are looking to improve our content. We are also in search for a new camera. Just subscribed!
Thanks for Giving true Information
finally some thing I was looking for my new gear
Nice video I think this camera can really upgrade my channel
Is the M50 also good for photos? And that small mic attachment you showed us on here looked good and a lot better than having the rode mic that is pretty big.
Awesome video! Can you please make a video about neutral density filters?
Yes! I’m working on that one next. ND filters and polarizers. Should be done in a few weeks so stay tuned 😄
This is the first video I have watched of yours. You rock! I'm a super fan now!
You can also put in on a tripod stand can't you for example for when at home ? Saves holding it all the time.
