Best Canon DSLR for Video? - Canon SL2 VS. T7i VS. 80D

[@ThinkMediaTV]

⚡QOTD: What Canon DSLR do you think is best for video? LMK! 👇👇👇

[@CarterInosencio]

Think Media I think it's the Canon T5i. However, I may be biased because that's what I use.

[@CarterInosencio]

Also, question. Could you make a video about tripods? I have a tripod, but it isn't very compact, and when it's strapped to my camera bag, it runs into walls because it sticks out on the sides. I'm looking into buying a compunction tripod, but don't know what to buy. If you would make a video, that would be AWESOME! Thanks, Carter Inosencio.

[@alexandriahammons1352]

Think Media I have the canon SL2 (200D) and I LOVE IT. But... why does it stop recording at 4GB?

[@dearangel9535]

I have a canon eos m5 but i like the 80D ! :) you’re the best Sean

[@zayde05]

Think Media I think video quality you should go for the SL2 because they both have the same sensors and nearly everything. So basically your getting a camper $400 cheaper and does pretty much the same video quality.

[@mediacreationsusa]

Im a pro - I own all three and 3 ff canons as well - The SL2 is my go to for travel - but it really depends on what you are shooting - if you are shooting sports photos - get the better cameras with more focus points, but if you are shooting portraits, the SL2 with the 50mm f/1.8 is tough to beat - it also has the newer sensor - I find the color to be a tad better actually on the SL2 than the 80D - but nothing compared to my 5D or 6D, as expected since they are FF cameras - bottom line - size matters when you travel... the SL2 is a home run in most respects for this. - great Low Light performance as well - even at high ISO's the camera doesn't show grain as much as the 80D - not horrible but you can see it - just my 2 cents :-)

[@crispykartel]

And how do u compare it to the t7i?

[@IndicaFX]

Yeah how is it compared to the t7i

[@ASMRtown]

Just upgraded from a T3i to an SL2 and I LOVE IT. Your videos helped me make that decision! Dual pixel AF is so clutch for content creation.

[@LouisLuzuka]

i have a t3i too!!! could u tell me more about the sl2 and what do you shoot with it

[@highgroundproductions8590]

[@ASMRtown]

Hey, sorry I'm a little late, just saw your comment from before. I shoot ASMR videos with it. Although I'm going to start vlogging very soon. (Couldn't before because no auto-focus). You can see videos I took with the SL2 & T3i for comparison on my channel! :D

[@HamRadio2]

80D or the M50? Mostly for KZbin and recording video

[@jianssakuragaming8674]

m50

[@jayden-jsjincorporated5089]

80D

[@DrumApe]

I got the 80D when it came out, it's my first camera ever and it's fantastic! I know it's overkill for a first camera, but I wanted something that would age well and it was definitely the rigth choice. I shoot video alone so the amazing autofocus feature saves me a lot of pain, battery life is also great and it's holding up nicely after two years. Now I'm saving for a second camera (I do drumming videos so I need a second POV) and it's definitely going to be the 200D. Once I save up some more money I'm getting the 50mm and the 10-18mm. Thanks for the great review!

[@RealityClubX]

What do the change in lens mm do? I'm new to cameras and don't know shit. I'm looking at the 80D just because all video footage I've seen of it looks sexy. What else do I need other than the camera body itself? What are the different lenses for? I've seen many professional video makers have lenses with hill-shaped figures round the sides of the lense, is that to block out light? Would be much appreciated if you could answer these. Thanks.

[@jayb9637]

@@RealityClubX Just search videos on youtube. I am new as well but these answers can be found easily within youtube itself. I have the 80D with the kit lens (18-135 mm) and I just got the 24 mm f/2.8 The difference is the kit lens has a FOCAL LENGTH that ranges between 18mm to 135mm whereas the 24mm is set and cannot change, its set at 24. However the "f/2.8" is your aperture which is the amount of "bokeh" or blurry background you can get in your photos/videos. the 18-135 has a f/3.5-5.6 which is TERRIBLE. Therefore, I am extremely happy to have a 24mm that cannot change but has a f/2.8 rather than a kit lens like a 18-55mm or 18-3.5 which has a low f stop or "f/3.5-5.6". You'll pick up on these things very quickly when you watch videos on youtube. This guy has some decent videos, for example: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gJWVhWCdf6-cgcU Hope this helps. God Bless

[@mp4vids]

@@RealityClubX - To answer your question, the higher the mm for a lense, the closer the object will appear in your viewscreen. The 18-135mm is vey nice, but when you really want to step it up, then give Rokinon lenses a try. The quality of those lenses are something special! They are fully manual and are at a fixed length, but if you are looking to make your videos look next level, then Rokinon is the best choice without taking your wallet completely away. The link is a chart to show you comparisons of focal length: www.photomodeler.com/kb/what_is_camera_focal_length/ www.nikonusa.com/en/learn-and-explore/a/tips-and-techniques/understanding-focal-length.html

[@themulliganfam403]

Went with the 80d here! We decided that the growth opportunities out weighted everything else. Spend a little more upfront but we can grow into it instead of having to buy more later on.

T7i has the Digic 7 which offers better image quality, 5-Axis Image Stabilization, improved low-light performance and subject tracking. 80D is void of those features and is heavier with a gimmicky screen and weather proofing that I don't need. T7i for me, thanks!

[@nikola2798]

does focus point number make HUGE difference between sl2 and t7i in photography I'm asking this because i would use sl2 for both:video and photo. And I would rather buy sl2 and then buy 50 mm 1.8 than just t7i please help me somehow

[@ThinkMediaTV]

Yes - esp. for action and movement in general. 45 AF points is far better than the 9 in the SL2.... esp. for photos.

[@drewlytle2281]

I've used a T5i and a 6D in college when learning film and man, knowing the strengths of both those and seeing this video I'm really struggling to decide between these two. I want the image quality of the 80D but T7i is cheaper. Ugh!

[@mp4vids]

I purchased the Canon 80D back in early 2016 and it's still going strong now. I had purchased Rokinon lenses and the video quality is off the charts! The native 18-135mm lense is awesome still to this day! If you know how to set the 80D up, your photos and videos will impress without question! Thanks for the video because my son was looking at the SL2!

[@ContractorsPOV]

Great comparison. I felt very good about my SL2 purchase before, being a beginner and all, but now I am confident that I made a great choice. Thanks for the videos and all your instruction.

[@MichaelRizzoVlogs]

Because Sean is mostly viewed by creators that are just starting up their channels/social media. I think it would be fair to say that the SL2 is exactly what we're looking for. Most affordable of the three and still has many of the same features as the other two. I've been trying to save up for an SL2 since October (when I started my channel). Now I am sure this is the way to go!

[@LegionOfWeirdos]

If you settle on the t7i I'd say consider the 77D instead. You get an additional LCD info display and video stabilization built in for pretty much the same price.

[@andresreyna4260]

How similar are the specs? Which one photographs better/has more options to do so???

[@japzinterludes6097]

I will just buy 80d instead of 77d. Little difference on price.

[@JamesSmith-wy7zk]

I purchased the SL2 a week ago and this is my first Digital camera. For those who are just getting their first digital camera like I am need to consider not only the price of the kit camera but a 50mm prime Lens (1.8 f stop), SD cards, extra batteries, bag, tripod, lens covers, etc. My start up cost is $1000. Also, I would recommend joining a local photography club. As far as the SL2, it takes wonderful pictures and video. I know I will get years of great service out of this camera and possibly someday move up to a more professional camera down the road. All the best. Jim from Milton, GA

[@PhilZero]

Perfect timing for releasing this. I have the g7x and use it daily. Been considering the 80D for a long time now! Thanks for the video!

[@crispykartel]

Alos the link for the cnaon eos rebel sl2, when clicked, it says on the camera "200D" What does this mean? Thoguht this was SL2

[@GodsMan500]

Does anyone else find that on this particular video, the 80D video examples look washed out compared to the other 2?

[@chemikalguy]

One thing I discovered when looking for a refurbished camera from Canon for primarily creating KZbin content videos and looking at these three is that the T7i doesn't have an option for monitoring the audio levels being recorded. For me, that's a killer, as I need to make sure the audio isn't too low or too high and clipping. I have a 70d, and use this every time I record to verify my levels. I seem to recall that you capture your audio using an external device, and thus don't use the camera-recorded audio, so perhaps that's why you didn't mention it in your comparison.

[@elizanjuguna2682]

Sean, Thanks for this video l'm kind of moving from Nikon to Canon and watching this has made me decide on the 80D 🙌🏽👏🏽

Sir may I have comparison video between 200D Mark II vs 80D ? CaravanMovies

[@RowlWool]

I'm glad you said you didn't think there wasn't much of a difference between the Digic6 and Digic7 processor. I've been worried about that with my choice to buy the 80d

[@kevindiaz3459]

I don't know all the specifics here, but I think the only noticeable difference is that the digic 7 has higher ISO performance. In all seriousness, you will never use the highest ISO on the 80D (26500), as your images would be garbage, so it's not a big deal. I think otherwise its has the typical tweeks, like slightly better noise performance and slightly better color processing, things you wouldn't really notice in a single generation jump. Hell, you likely wouldn't notice if you came up from a couple generations, not unless you are making large prints.

[@Hervebutoyi]

I have been looking for hours about which camera I should buy between Canon, Nikon, DSLR or mirrorless. Sir this video explained everything perfectly. THANK YOU!

Hi, Sean. I know this is an older video. My question is this: Are you makig a distinction between video and film quality video?

[@PaulKretz]

*Does 80D have a continuous AF in photo mode?* (e.g. face-tracking while 10sec timer already counting down). 70D has it, 200D doesn't. What's the 80D behaviour?

[@ecommcoach8864]

Thanks so much for your videos! I bought the Canon Rebel t6 and was completely disappointed when I discovered that it was incredibly difficult to shoot vlogs. It won't focus on my face and has no external mic. Regardless, I wanted to shoot video and launch my channel, so I'm using my iPhone6 for now. My next purchase will be the Canon SL2 thanks to your awesome reviews. Thank you so much!

[@GKid1]

I just got a Canon 80D yesterday. I love it, definitely improving the quality of my videos

SL2 missed autofocus in the first take walking towards the camera :P

[@rumidude]

I live out on the Olympic Peninsula in Washington in the PNW. The biggest concern I have is how susceptible are the Sl2 and T7i to moisture? I don't plan on having it in direct rain but it often is cloudy/foggy/misty with high humidity here. I would use it with an umbrella or other cover from direct rain if those were the circumstances.

[@KylesGameRoom]

I had a Canon Rebel T6i, but was disappointed with the autofocus, so thanks to your reviews, I picked up the Canon Rebel SL2 (Used like new on Amazon for $480 Body Only). So thank you man :) Also I think it would sound better if you said "things I may have missed" instead of saying forgot. Just sounds better IMO. But anyway I subbed because I run into your videos a lot when I need to look up tips and stuff and I like it here :)

[@Postdisclosureworld]

For video (no photography) is there a difference between the auto focus of the Canon SL2 and the other two cameras?

[@chrisklugh]

This is why Cannon is failing behind the competition. They have 3 entry level cameras that are so close to one another and try to hook new people that don't know anything into buying them. Now, I want to say I bought a T5i last year, and given what I thought I wanted at the time, I love that camera. I can still learn a ton of stuff on that thing so its a great training camera. But knowing what I know now for anyone that wants to get into video, these cameras are still a few years behind what Panasonic is doing. The 3 advantages you get with Cannon: 1) Best Auto Focus. Even then, you will learn manual focus is best for video so this is not that big of an advantage, unless your just doing VLog'n. 2) Good Color Science. You wont really have to worry about color correcting. And if you want to get into Color Correcting, your going to find out that the 4:2:0 8 bit is not enough. 3) Cheap Lens. Got to admit, if you new, the idea of spending a ton on lens is daunting. You can get some usable lens to learn with on a Cannon system. Don't be afraid to buy used! If video is your goal, invest in Panasonic. Might cost a wee bit more for lens, but once your ready to upgrade into a beefier camera, the GH5 and G9, are class leading cameras. Panasonic, is pushing camera tech for consumers and professionals alike. Cannon is relying on its heritage to stay a float, but soon it too might disappear with Kodak if they don't innovate soon! My recommendations: G9 for aprox $500 gets you 4k and into the brand and holds a ton of value. Better then the SL2 and T7i G85 for aprox $1000 gets you 4k, weather sealed, and image stabilization. Better then the 80D

[@DihelsonMendonca]

Try manual focus when you make Vlogs on the streets, interviewing people and showing you and the landscape ! There´s much types of videos !

[@aymanrahman2332]

80D isnt an entry level camera anymore, its considered to be a notch lower than pro cameras,its for enthusiasts ,not beginners

[@aricmacbsb]

You always help a lot, thank you Sean!! And my question is about the AUDIO control. The 80D has AGC or Automatic Gain Control AND manual control. Some cameras only have AGC and you cant control the audio your self. In the last case, in AGC only, when you speak, audio is OK but on the talk pauses, the gain goes hi and brings a lot of background noise. Does SL2 and T7i have manual audio control or they have AGC only?? Best from Ari in Brazil !!

[@craigmckernan4056]

I own both the SL1 and 80D camera. I started with the SL1 and was really happy with it, but then as my lens collection grew the heavier lenses were making the SL1 harder to hold with its light weight and small grip which the 80D handles much better. So for me I use the SL1 as my casual walk around camera. And then I break out my 80D for the more of the heavy duty photo sessions.

[@crilton]

One thing I get confused about is while in live view for photographs does the auto focus points matter or does it rely on phase detection? I also ran into a bit of a problem (not big but is there); no micro focus adjustments for lenses. Not a big deal unless you are shooting real shallow , very close up or macro , and you like using 3rd party lenses that might not be 100% on target. I know, its very niche but, its there.

I m thinkin between Sl2 and SL3 , now that SL3 is out. Just using it to do youtube & simple photography. Thinkin about adding 50mm 1.8m .. which one? SL3?

[@LouisLuzuka]

sean in your opinion which one do you like best?

[@ThinkMediaTV]

For vlogging ... sl2 kzbin.info/www/bejne/fYKppICBf76njLs For "video production" / more versatility for KZbin content / 80D

[@LouisLuzuka]

thanks for the reply!! i'm so torn, i currently have a t3i and a 60d the t3i is lightweight for travel its been around the world with me from australia to philippines and even africa the 60d i am in love with the feel of a solid body although it is heavier. and i feel like the sl2 and the 80d are the obvious upgrades even the 70d because of the autofocus. i vlog and make dance videos, should i get 2 sl2 (cost of one 80d) i already have a 24mm and 10-18mm a kit lens and 55-250mm so it wouldn't make sense for me to sell it all and go to sony. what would you invest in? thanks in advance much love from canada

[@kevindiaz3459]

Louis Luzuka - I saw this after I replied to your other comment. For vlogging and videos of any kind, the SL2 is a pretty nice upgrade over the T3i, and will have a little better performance for stills too (though not enough that I would get it jsut for stills). If at least 50% of your time is spent making video, then grab an SL2, you won't be disappointed. I would also add the EF 50mm F1.8 STM lens to your kit. For 125 USD, it's low light performance is pretty great on APS-C cameras like the SL2, and for it's price it's hard to beat for portraits.

[@AliTKhan]

I just bought my 80D! Thank you so much for this video! It helped me alot!!!! I'm so happy with my camera

[@RetrocarStyle]

To me....I think the 80d kills it. Image quality just looks much sharper.

[@vespertineph]

I hope you can reply to this question. I'm really torn between the two, EOS M50 & 80D I'm not really going to Vlogging Industry, I will be just shooting memories, capturing moments and then save it. I just want it to be perfect. Which one should I get. Huhu!

[@SeanOzz]

Great video. I think only the t7i and the 80d come on a. Creator kit with a ride mic. It’s surprising that the sl2 does not come in that package deal.

[@kevindiaz3459]

Likely becasue there is no bundle that includes the 18-135mm lens, which is needed for the power zoom accessory. You would be better off jsut getting a Rode mic on it's own, unless you wanted that power zoom, in which case you would probably be better off with the 80D. (this assumes that people that would be using it are making higher level content, and can justify the added cost).

[@SeanOzz]

Kevin Diaz I’m leaning toward the t7i

[@kevindiaz3459]

Also a good choice, though the SL2 and T7i are jsut about the same for video. The T7i is a better camera for shooting action, as it has the 45 pt AF system as well as a surprising 6FPS burst, jsut 1 frame less than the 80D, or the 5D for that matter! It also features built in stabilization for video (not for stills), though it is not as ideal as using IS lenses. I think you would be happy with either, where the T7i gains the edge if you want to shoot more action shots (for basic portraits and other types of shooting the SL2 works as well as any other 9pt AF Rebel). It is worth pointing out that the 80D has a headphone port that neither the T7i or SL2 have, so if you need to monitor audio while filming then that is the only one of these three that have that.

[@tenwaystowearit]

They’re all very very similar. This is great information. I’m on the market for a camera right now for filming KZbin content so this is great.

[@AskDrKing]

Sean...do you have a video showing how to livestream with one of the Canon's. I am wanting to upgrade from the iPhone to the T7i for KZbin videos (more like a podcast). Just want to know everything that would be needed to livestream. Thanks, and keep up the great videos!

[@meriumramadan3429]

SUPER HELPFUL!!!! I was considering getting the T7i, but I want to really invest and have a camera for years soooo the 80D is what I'm going to go for!

[@bladeshark5972]

i have t7i bought it 2 years ago still working

[@SamCarLegion]

T7i and 80D are so far from each other in price and yet so close! I am going for the 80D because of battery life and video. Bad for vlogging because of weight but hey, less work out at the gym. I still have my T5i which I can sell for a good price. Thanks for the video Sean. Respect for your wife for helping out and supporting! Mine is shy ☺️

[@_l3330_]

What about T7?

[@ScottMcLinden]

I'm still undecided between the sl2 and 7Ti UGH!

[@Regirl75]

Sooo, what you end up getting?!

[@Renewed85]

I'm just learning. These are the 2 I'm leaning towards also. I want the t7i. But if the sl2 does the same thing and it's cheaper, then why not

[@oceanview418]

I'm stuck in between the Sl2 and The T7i as well. 😖

[@cellinakwon5246]

For photography. What do you like best Sean?

Don’t need to there all good with proper lenses

[@zerospecs2331]

@@Rastafromfl Not a good enough reason 😕. Lenses can be expensive, and unless the lenses are being reviewed too- I just want to see how things look outside the box.

[@asrieldancel2k]

It won’t give any real comparison because using a camera is a skill. It’s better to compare what each camera offers

[@VerianMusic]

At 10:48 why Sl2 seems to be down a crop factor with the 50mm 1.8 lens if both 3 have similar sensors?

[@DMGAMBLE]

Quiseve he obviously moved back with the other two cameras.

Great video Sean! Perfect comparisons, thank you for sharing!👍

canon 200d vs canon 70d which one should i buy .....your advice .............

[@SuperJangJang]

I’m still impressed with SL2

[@DustinVang]

*Sean do you think Canon will evntually be coming out with 4k capability in 2018?*

[@YuMaGaming]

Finding these videos are like finding a treasure! Great video, keep em coming! Wanted to ask you on your opinion regarding the SL2 vs Panasonic G7 or even G85? Currently thinking about which to get of these two (I want to make short clips, vlogging clips, but also use it as a webcam via Elgatos Cam Link-adapter).. Sending cyberhugs from Sweden =D

[@ThinkMediaTV]

If you want-need 4K then the G7 or the G85. If not... Canon has much better phase detection AF during video and I find Canon much more user friendly and convenient for creating videos. But all 3 are great cameras. P.S. The G85 crushes all 3... but it's also twice the price as you know :-)

[@notsteverogers7410]

Need some guidance. I have gotten back into photography and own a t3i. I’m looking for an upgrade but I’m not sure which body to buy. I want to buy something far superior than the t3i but I am not a professional by any means. The camera is mostly for a hobby. Any thoughts?
