Need more Kai and Lok videos 😎
Kai W yes u do
Kai W very short answer
Yes
Better duo than a 13 inch dildo and lube
Yes... Combo is good
Yes please
I miss the pro photographer, cheap camera videos :(
Digital Rev is still doing them mate. It's the Kai, Lok, and Alambi chemistry that is missing, especially the Kai and Lok stuff.
I prefer this version without silly looking cameras. The budget could be $100 - $200 and still be considered cheap or affordable for anyone on the planet. There are new cameras in this budget from nikon, canon, sony, olympus, pentax, fuji, panasonic, pentax.
I hope to see this more on this channel. Maybe some used medium format - probably over the budget 😃
Check out degitalrev's newer ones. I Honestly think it's better than it used to be now.
$75 is absolutely luxurious compared to the lego camera 📸
yesssss
That guy in the background, lol. We first spot him at 6:36, just walking and texting, no idea what is going on. We got to see the entire process. First, accidentally ended up behind Kai and Lok. Then, he laughed a bit about them vlogging. Next, he considered going around them. Suddenly, he realizes who they are. He drops back, frantically goes for his bag, and pulls his camera out. After presumably taking a candid shot of them that he will upload to Instagram with a caption like "look who I found", he pulls out his phone and has what appears to be a very fun conversation. We can only assume he was saying "dude, I swear to God, they're right in front of me...". Finally, at 7:55, he pulls a "now or never" and introduces himself to Kai and Lok.
so drama much lol
nice spot haha didn't even noticed it at first
well spotted i had to go back and watch again
Great comment hahaha
Great spot.
Hire lok and have the best camera channel on YT
this
support
and call it digitalrev... oh wait :D
and Alamby
No dude hire the german? guy who I think was filming for a moment!
$75 is a bit extreme, for a little bit more you can get a really nice camera and start your photography journey! Go!
What about video editing on the super cheap?
@@WickdPerfekT capture one free version does a lot, also there is darktable
I've seen early Sony mirrorless cameras with 18-55mm lenses without broken screens and with original Sony batteries for $100CAD ($75USD) and are great options. Same with Canon XS cameras with their kit lenses. This video is a great idea to show people can take good images with decent equipment without spending hundreds.
@@IFalker thank you. What do you think of the dongrading resolution trick for slower computers? Any big cons I'm not seeing?
@@WickdPerfekT you can get nice film cameras for 10 bucks.
Lok's English has drastically improved. He is still a funny guy tho and I would love to see them together more often.
It's great to see James May and Clarkson working together again.
As I'm sure you've heard before, this absolutely is the Top Gear of camera shows.
Just missing the 3rd wheel (or cog?) (halfway there with the random camera man :D)
Just missing alamby
Like the good old days!
James Collins yeah
I used to watch both of you when I started photography, now I’m a fulltime fashion photographer and I couldnt be more happier seeing you two again! P.s. 300D is my first camera lol😆
Nex f3 my 1 camera😂
Nex f3 with that lens my 1 camera
Same, only I'm not a fashion photographer now, but still love snapping from time to time. Back in 2016 when my uncle gave me his old 10D, I would just binge DigitalRev for hours on end. Ahh, the sweet memories.
Well 300D is my first and only camera... And that 18-55 lens is my primary lens. Insane.
You just recruited a cameraman from the streets?
MrVipitis look's like it
hire him! Also make it a series! “Kai’s & Lok’s camera show - A cameraman from the streets series 1"
@@rkan2 Series 1 episode 2: How we lost our gear and now live out of a cardboard fort.
Lok is so lovable
He is!! Isn't he?
I got a shoulder muscle workout just watching them hold up their selfie cameras.
My first camera was a Canon 300D that was lost and never claimed at my brothers work. The year was around 2009/10, and while I was in high school, I learned a lot with it, I remember kids back in the day were getting better cameras from their parents money, but they never really got the passion to learn. Today I'm a professional photographer and I can say that the 300D was the best camera to learn with cause it puxed me to improve myself, it made me love photography and find my vocation.
Nowadays I still have my old 300D on the shelf, while I use the 5D Mark III to work on what I love and enjoy doing.
Remember kids, less is more, having a super camera from the beginning will probably just make you confuse on how to use all those features and make you demotivated about photography.
i started with a 350d, same lost and never claimed story. they're fantastic cameras. now I'm on a 5d mark II. kinda similar story, except I didn't become a professional :D
People underestimate how good the gear is from 10 years ago and feel like they need the best gear with the best sensor 😪 truth is all cameras are good it's all about who's taking the photos and their composition of the photos they take
Agreed i am using a aging nikon d40x and its still getting amazing shots as long as you get good lens a old camera would always get good results
I use an F4 and that's 30 years old, still works beautifully... Same with older dslrs, resolution and iso isn't that great but pretty much everything else will work pretty well.
every generation is 5% of a stop better than last yet everytime theres a new gen sony people are like "this has like... 2...3...5 Stops better ISO and DR " Bullshit. Check independent reviewers (dxomark, dpreview studio comparison, etc) and show me a A7III / A9 / D850 or any other full frame performing better at iso 6400 than a D600 at 3200 IN RAW stills.
@@cbflazaro DR yes. New sensors are much improved. 6400 is fairly low sensitivity for a good camera. Try shooting at 25k iso with that d600. Or shoot in 4k or 1080 120p. Try shooting video with 13 stops of dynamic range. I get the sentiment. You can take good photos with old gear. But a great photographer with newer gear will be better than that same photographer with old gear.
In my experience modern gear only really makes a huge difference in extreme situations. Lowlight situations come to my mind where crosstype sensors and a great ISO performance are of great help when you want to let's say shoot a band in a club. This is not to say that modern gear is not of advantage in a portrait situation with lots of light, but the difference is more marginal than one should think.
yay for another Kai + Lok collab 😊
Spare batteries equals cheat haha classic. Great vid guys
Maybe, but 3rd party (non rip-off) batteries usually only cost around 8€
Oh like buying from another country and shipment is your friends air fare is not a bigger cheat? hahahah
I actually really liked the images coming out of the 300D. Changes how the world around it looks and sends you back to the mid 2000’s
you two are total legends! watched your videos back in 2010 when i first got into photography, still going strong in 2020. Keep up the good stuff!
Im looking for a comment that's looking for Alamby.
Make alamby great again
;_;
I feel old
Missed this kind of video. More please.
This video was just pure gold. I have always loved how these two play off of each other.
Yeah! It's great to see this kind of videos again :)
"let's take pictures of the bloody cathedral"
"if you got a friend, use them (...) Just abuse their trust!"
That's the best photo advice I've ever gotten xD
Great to see you two together again.
Reminds me of a while back. I bought a d7000 because of u and I got it from the #### u used to work for. That camera was the stepping stone for my photography and led on to me traveling the world seeing amazing things and meeting amazing people.
I thank you both for ur wacky videos from then and now.
Keep it up
:)
So satisfying to see these two together again. More of these please!
Thank you, been waiting for something like this for a while
you two are a great team! the canon took some really artistic looking shots (light wise), except in black and white I found that to INCREASE the noise actually.
Oh boy! Haven't seen these type of video for a long time! Missed it very much!
Thanks for the laughs! Love it when you two get together!
The Best Camera is the one you had 10 years ago. LOL.
Canon PowerShot S2 IS with CHDK firmware in my case, and what a wonderful camera that was. It had no right to be that sharp and clean, great RAW output
350D in 2006 as a 13 year old… Ah what were the possibilities before 2008..
Probably why Canon doesnt step up their game XD
Great video! Just like 6 years ago!
GREAT to see you together guys ... you make an awesome balance!
... n extremely fun
Have missed you 2 together doing this challenge It's fun to see again.
I spent yesterday binge watching Pro Tog Cheap camera challenges.. i guess my life is complete now
John Smith Did you watch one hosted by Kai?
@@TheLokCheung o.O Lok who is here :D
I like Kai's! The pictures have a nice feeling to them, as long as the comparisons were SOOC.
Great to see you guys back together, really miss your videos together.
Loved this episode, always fun to see what old/weird cameras you can find when it’s a challenge.
Was in london for 10 days, just got back. While i was there i got to thinking how much i liked the photographers with cheap camera challenge. You really should make a regular show of this. Donate the cameras to a school or something when complete.
i actually think the canon photoes looked more pleasing
I love you guys together! The best comedic photographic team ever.
It's always good to see Kai and Lok working together. Probably my favorite camera review duo.
@8:02
Kai: "Your not gonna be able to ride me"
Lmfao the guy is like "WTF"
It's going to be another awesome video! You always upload great content and very inspiring for fellow filmmakers. Thank you:)
This is my favorite photography video of all time. I love the way they exploit how every minuscule investment into the camera can provide edge in making richer images
So glad to see more of you two. Lok is a great guy, I think it's an awesome pairing. Your lively comical approach and his attempts to be serious, it reminds me of something like Jeremy Clarkson and James may, different personalities together for a very fun viewing experience.
The NEX-F3 was my first camera. I learned photography from it (in 2013), and being a mirrorless helped a lot showing in real time the effects of aperture, shutter speed, and focal lenght. Had a lot of fun. The Brazilian manufactured ones, however, came with banding in 800+ iso (or whenever it felt like it). I still use it for my M42 lenses (since I own a Nikon).
I also started with an NEX-F3. Loved that camera, taught me the basics and I was able to transfer the lenses to my A7ii
@@youtubeuser6668 Oops! My mistake. Thanks for the fix!
Can't believe you missed the opportunity to call this Broke Bros.
Its always great to see them both work together. its just reminiscence of the good old days.
My favorite power couple! Kai and Lok the fierce camera duo!
More of these challenges please! Can you also do a real world comparison of the 6Dii and 7Dii since they are nearly the same price now? APSC vs FF
Between the two, I'd buy 6D II these days. I'm shooting on 7DII and while I love it, the features on 6DII are the same or better than the 7D. Perhaps if you are shooting in the rain and snow or have a large collection of EF-S glass you should prefer the 7D. Note: You can buy a 7DII second hand for around $700 USD on ebay with an 18-135 IS USM lens. It's a very versatile piece of glass with silent af and is a great combo for dependable auto focus video. Though if you were to go a different direction you can get a panasonic gx85 with two lenses for 497 on adorama. That's in body IS and 4K30. The only thing that's missing is a selfie screen, but that may not be important to a prospective 7D buyer.
@@Kuromankuro i have a 7Dii for sport but im looking at getting a 6Dii for studio, portrait and low light work and want to see if its actually worth it and im just curious in general to see a real world comparison and not by someone who makes me fall asleep after watching 30 seconds of the video. Really dont give a shit about the video side of things as i only shoot stills. I dont bother with ef-s glass really either so i can use any of my current lenses on either body
Kai:Lok::Jeremy Clarkson:James May
Pete Tran - LOL! "Top Gear copying Top Gear"? Seems like a lot of that going around.😂
Lok is much better than james may ,,thats a bit of an insult
James can't even follow a map most of the time, at least lok can do what he's supposed to be doing. I think comparing him to may is an insult
Wheres hammond
Another great episode of Gear Tour!
haven't laughed so much in a long time, bring back more of the golden days
kai's attitude is like an experienced uncle from west and lok like a good student graduate that just came from china
I recently saw a RX100 I for 109€ and a RX100 III for 325€ at a store which I thought were great. But you got good stuff as well
I shoot with a RX10 I and a RX100 II and both are great. I'll keep them for several years.
@@dangernba I got a used RX100 IV at 450 this April. It fit my requirements of being premium, having controls, small enough to fit my pockets and a gimmick (slow motion)
I just saw a RX-100 5 for 550 USD equivalent. I just want it for the video and AF. Sensor hasn't changed much since 2012.
Nice to see you both together. Do more like this please!
Always Nice to see the magic happening with you two.
@Kai which Mic are you using as it is more clear than the Lok's Mic ?
Sanken COS-11D
@@KaiManWong Thanks 😊
I liked the Canon colors more than the Sony's.
Yeah, Canons old colors were better than Sonys old, but Sonys new colors seems better than Canons new (too orange). Shooting RAW takes that problem away of course...
Have you heard of RAW?
@@gumaming Yes I have. What about it?
you guys are awesome, love your videos! just being real with it!
U guys rock! great vid great subject, excellent execution or whatever!
Good to see you guys having fun on the streets! Greetings from The Netherlands 🤙📷
Mee eens, groet Rinus.
Lmao 20:19 "I'm focking"
This took me back! More content like this, please!
Great to see the two of you guys together
How about a $200-abouts budget sometime? Could probably get a semi-decent body from two or three generations back, with maybe a pancake lens - a thrifty street shooting loadout, if you will.
Do a tag team match next please. Kai with PJB vs Lok with Dan, or better yet, you two go against Chris and Jordan.
Those funny looks you getting, tho.
Really awesome to see you both together again 😉
Yo I'm ecstatic to see a video of you two together! Honestly you guys were one of the reasons I got into photography haha. Hope to see more :D!
I picked up a 2nd Hand Nikon D3200 with kit lens and 2 batterys for my 10 year old son to use, takes a nice little snap and means he leaves my D4 and D750 alone.. and only paid £50... win!
You got a great bargain there. D3200 is still a terrific camera even if it's a few years old.
@@cmartin_ok Yep I shoot with the D4 and D750 but we where looking to something for my son to learn with and one came up on Facebook it just said camera £50 so I went state away and got it could not test at bats where flat buts works a treat good for day trips where we don't want all my kit
But did you even mention that this old canon didn’t even crop in video and now they do?!111
😂
Haha it do crop in video mode
@@TheLokCheung did the cheap Amköv crop too? haha:D
that old canon deosn't even do video
@legendp2011, yes it does, 2.5fps for 1.6 seconds!
@@rkan2 it can even shoot raw for 1.92 seconds!
Yes! Old school cameras and old school content! More of this pleeeease Kai!
Great to see these tests back. I am amazed at how good my Canon 350D shots still look 10 years later. Of course you have to stay under 800ISO at the very most and I was lucky enough to have some L glass to use with it and that makes a huge difference to the picture quality obviously. It came with the kit lens and side by side with the 24-70 L 2.8 - there's no comparison. It was a bit like shooting film as you had limited CF card capacity and limited ISO but with a bit of thinking you can easily get the shot.
Couldn’t this have been a Boke Bros video?
im using 10 year old d3 and d700 LOL
pls do more videos like this one, using old tech is soo cool and gosh i love y guysss
classic duo! keep them coming!
Alexa, play "The Boys Are Back in Town"
..and now we just need Alamby
great energy with you guys!
Great video guys
Hope you had a nice trip through Cologne
I live there it's great.
Hoffentlich hattet ihr einen schönen Ausflug nach Köln ich wohne in Köln.
My money is on Kai ;)
Really enjoy these kinds of videos! Much better than gear reviews!
A welcome stroll down memory lane with this
Taking pictures in Germany despite the dsgvo. Risky risky ;)
If your reading this, I hope you have a great day :)
Thanks! Same to you! ^_^
Thanks a lot. You too! 😀
Thank you, and same sentiments to you
This was fun!
Thanks for doing this vid guys!
Miss you guys! This made me chuckle so much.
My current bokeh setup is a Canon D60 (not the 60D) for $50 from eBay and a Yonguo 50mm lens for $50 from Amazon. I had to buy a CF card and CF reader for another $30.
I can buy the nokia 3310 for 75$ best camera in the world
Michael Tapel No camera on the 3310 though... hang on, you mean the NEW 3310 don’t you...
Tbh I love the vintage style pictures from the Canon!!!!
My first DSLR was the Pentax *ist D and I did motorsports photography with it. The AF and shutter fps was horrid, but I got great photos enough to be magazine featured. You can get the same one for under $100 nowadays so for stills it's a great budget option.
Kai+ Lok= Kok
$75 can buy u a mobile phone prob better than that new 75 camera
Don't think so! Not sure about the 300D but the Sony will have better dynamic range than a cheap smart phone, may be not top of the line smart phones with their smart HDR tricks. Also you can't learn all the controls of a camera to take the shot that you want
the canon would probably be legit tbh
Disagree.
its good to see you both together. 😊😊
So happy when I see you two back together
