Thanks a lot Mark, I was struggling with this thing since a year now. Just followed your White balance settings and it is working now. I cant thank you enough man. God Bless You :)
Thanks for packing 3 years into 11 minutes for us, great!
every second is a pure value, mark! u are my hero
Thank you so much!
Dude I just want to say I appreciate the level of detail you go into with certain things when explaining the how and why, and why this stuff is important. I subscribed to your channel a while back when I decided I wanted to get into photography. I initially was going to get a Cannon but was swayed by a good friend to go with a Fuji X-T3, and I will remain with this Fuji for a while because I really like it, but I still get a lot out of listening to you talk about photography in general. Your presentation of information is really well done. Cheers!
Thanks! so nice of you to say, I shoot FujiFilm as well, and love it. Have an X-T4 and X-E3 at the moment, it's a really fun user experience.
Great lighting tips here! Amazing the difference just what one light can do. Love your channel, Mark! 🙌
Thanks so much!
You are a life saver, I have almost no experience with cameras and have been pulling my hair out over all the different complicated aspects of using the m50 but this feels so concise on the information I need to do the best I can. I really appreciate the work you put into this video. Thank you!!!
Really good to hear. Good luck!
As I see most, camera youtube will show either new lens or new camera butt you show us on how to use the most out of the camera. I bought the M50 Mark ii because of you can having fun taking photos and learning so much more. Thank you for sparking a new interest in me.
So nice to hear, be sure to join the “Canon M50 - User Group” on Facebook, if you’re on there.
Thank you, this lighting tip video is goodd
Thanks.

Thank you Mark I subscribed for the M50 videos glad this one was about it!
You are very welcome!
This was very helpful. Great beginner way to get into lighting. Glad you're still posting vids with the M50.
Thanks!
Useful video, thanks!
You are welcome!
Awesome video, I'm used to shooting outdoors in natural light and detest filming indoors because I don't have decent equipment. I know this video is two years old but is there any chance of you updating the amazon link? It didn't work for me 🙏
Just found your videos because I'm thinking about grabbing a M50.
Your videos are awesome, found you at the perfect time! Thank you sir!
So good to hear! good luck!
Okay Mark, I have gone back to your beginning video here, as I got used equipment and I need to learn how to connect it all together, and your budget like a Pro is AWESOME.. THANK YOU Keep it Up !!
Fantastic!
I’ve been waiting for this. Thank you and keep up the great work man.
You are most welcome!
Thanks so much for all the great information!
You are most welcome.
Very informative for a newbie like me. Thanks a lot.
You are welcome!
Your setup really shows that knowledge is the key!
Thank you, If I could sum up what I want this channel to be about... That's it!
Mark, get information and production. New to your channel but enjoy your content and efforts. Thanks!
Thanks for the comment! Glad it's making a difference for some.
All your videos are so humble and has amazing information!!! Thank you so much
Wow, thanks so much! Means a lot to hear that.
Lighting makes all the difference in the quality of the video 😊 Great video as always 😊
Yes it does. Thanks bud.
Mark I love all your videos Im from Spain but I would like to know what camera and lens you use to record each video since your community needs to know which camera and lens is best according to their budget
This is an amazing video !
how do you “punch in and out” like that towards the end of the video?
Great video and lighting tips ! Thanks
Thanks! That's just cropping the footage in editing.
Thank you sir, I'm learning a lot with your videos. Keep up the good work, cheers from Mexico
Thanks, thats great to hear.
Thank u sir..great video
Thanks!
Great Video Thanks
Thank you so much!
Very enlightening 😃
lol.. well done, very good!
Hi Mark, I hope you are doing well, I´m a follower of your channel, I find the tips and tutorials posted by you very useful. I frequently see your videos looking improve my knowledge related with photography, I started to studying photography since a couple of months. I'm wondering if you can help me with the following, I´m learning how to use a Canon M50mkii camera, it´s my first camera of the brand, the issue is that I would like the camera stops looking continuously what to focus. For example, when the camera is turned on, even if I am not manipulating it, the camera looks what to focus. I know that I can choose the manual focus option, but I don't know if there is another way to solve this. For example, I have an Olympus camera and it doesn´t start the focusing process unless I half-press the shutter button. Conversely, as soon as I turn on the Canon, the camera starts to AF continuously which I find quite annoying using lenses with noisy focusing motors as the EFs 55 250 I have using the proper adapter. Thank you in advance for taking a few minutes to answer, Regards, Orlando.
This helped so much!
great video Mark, thanks.. Im a Minister and need serious tek help because im old lol.. I have the cannon m50 but havent a clue how to use it..
Are you using the standard lense that came with the M50? I think mine is the first gen but I definitely need to get my lighting set up under control.
I love your videos I'm on a market for my TH-cam camera, I believe all your videos are created using M50 mark ii ,my question is do you shoot then in 4k or 1080p .. thank you
I shoot on a number of cameras, the M50 videos are 1080p, the 4k isn’t all that usable. I would also look at the canon M6 Mark II and the Sony zv-e10, I would recommend them over the M50 for video.
@@markwiemels thank you so much for your videos I am actually watching one at moment all way in South Africa.
Great video. Good tip for setting up the kelvin temperature in the camera depending on the light bulbs. Can you tell me what RGB lamp you are using, that you have placed on the floor? Thank you.
This is the pack with battery, charger, and remote, they don't sell the light on it's own anymore - geni.us/kqgyJX
@@markwiemels Thank you for your reply. I will look into it.
@@martinhaustorp7340 I would also consider a powerful pocket light, or budget COB light for backdrop lighting. I use my pixel liber pocket light for the background now.
Great demonstration! Have you done a video about when it’s relevant to have a light with variable color temperature? I can easily find theoretical articles on the topic, but still need to understand the practicalities and real world
applications. I’m asking because I have to decide on a light and therefore have the choice between a daylight balances or a bicolor light. I’m considering the Godox ML60 because I would like something handy and semi-portable, so I can shoot in the dark
garage as well as in my kitchen where natural light gets in from all over the place.
You can make either work, but the bi-color will be better, and look better at times, when you are mixing natural light. I don't have a video on this.
can you tell me more about the blankets on the walls?
You is a boss.
Thanks. Doing my best!
@@markwiemels I appreciate it. 🙂
Mark what kind of focus settings are you using - auto focus or just setting the distance correct that you are always in focus? My inferior M3 seams like it is
always bouncing around in Auto. Not a huge issue as I don't do video but I was just wondering?
I use AutoFocus. I have used the M3 in the past, autofocus wasn't as good, but generally works well if it can lock onto a face with the face detect autofocus.
Hi, Should the canon 80D ISO and lighting settings in general be similar to the M50? I'm trying to figure this thing out. I did this video but I'm not happy with the results: th-cam.com/video/WXWEfhSPz4E/w-d-xo.html I use a EFS 10-18mm lens, one small LED video light about 6ft away from me and the room's recess led lights on. I usually shoot my videos outside but occasionally I do some vids indoor.
Yes, the 80d and the M50 have the same sensor, so settings should be the same.
@@markwiemels what lens do you recommend for indoor videos for the 80D?
I shoot videos with a cannon m50 mark II. I want to shoot video with 2 cameras for multiple angles. Is it important that I get another m50 mark II, so that the video looks consistent? Or could I up grade to a better video camera to pair and and the look consistent?
Pretty much any Canon will be close enough. It gets harder if you switch brands, but can be done in some cases.
@@markwiemels thanks for your reply. Your videos have been a great help to me. I'm a musician who makes my own live videos, always looking for gear and techniques to separate my art from the rest of the content flooding the web!
I'm a rookie when it comes to cameras and film so all of this is very foreign. Any recommendations for editing? Do I absolutely need a Mac? I'm not a fan of apple and I'm looking to build a gaming PC as well as something I can edit film and photos on. Any experience with this?
Using a pc with resolve is a good option, resolve is a pro editing software and it’s free.
Wait , mark are you saying you only used the canon m50 and the regular lense that comes with it and you produced this? i have 2 light sources yet i still cant get this quality of footage.
Yes, make sure you understand the concepts of this video, and check out some other lighting videos online. Took me a little while for it to sink in for me too. I would only use one key light, and get it as close as possible to you.
Not sure if the price went up, or it's just because it's the upgraded version, but the linked one is actually $80 USD. Still not bad though.
I just fixed it up! Found another listing, same product.
great youtuber great guy 👍
Wow. thanks!
Good advice even if your camera isn't a Canon M50!
Yes, it's the same principals, regardless of camera or brand, light it light!
F1.4 in Kit lens ? How it is possible ?
Hello mark! with what lens did u record the video?
Kit lens. You can check out the playlist for TH-cam lens options.
Me encanta tu canal, ojalá hubiese subtítulos al español!
Thanks!
Yo le estoy preguntando como loco que camara usa en cada video, una vez usa la M6 , otras veces la M50 , se le olvida decir que camara usa
👏👏👏
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

You can always tell who these camera videos are targeted for when they get to white balance.
Correct white balance should give accurate color, and skin tone, regardless of the colors or type of skin, in the scene. This is my understanding, but I’m more than open to further education.
amazing videos, useful! thanks!
