I’m not sure why everyone thinks this camera isn’t good for video - There’s a firmware hack that’s very popular in the canon filmmaking community called magic lantern that works on this camera, that allows you to shoot 10 or 14 bit RAW video, in higher resolutions than what it can shoot normally. I’ve seen many videos online where they use this camera and get great video out of it. Also the thing you said about 4K I completely disagree with. I shoot almost all my videos in 1080p 24, and upscale before I upload to YT, even though my camera can shoot 4K video! (I prefer it because of the less rolling shutter, and reduced file sizes)
I’ve never used Magic Lantern myself before but I’d be curious if there are any limitations with it. When it comes to upscaling 1080p to 4k I stray away from doing that since you’d have very little room to crop in if needed w/o it ruining the resolution
@@wilsonpeng_ Yeah, it really depends on what you’re doing. As I mostly do short films I never crop in, but content creators who film themselves might need the extra resolution.
I still use my 5dmk4 from time to time and I have a Canon R5 and a Leica Q2. Something about the DSLR look is really indescribable. I feel as if cameras now are TOO high quality

Haha same I try to crank my sharpness down as much as possible in camera
This was the first camera I bought when starting out professionally. Thank you for giving it some love even now =)
Same! The camera has definitely made its mark
