Best video settings for the Canon 2000D / Rebel T7 camerawize video
One thing I always look at when I am shooting my videos with my Canon 2000D or Rebel T7 is white balance. If you are shooting in a single location you might be happy just to leave it on auto and the auto white balance on this camera is very good and there is no reason really to want to change it but if you are shooting in different locations where the lighting might be slightly different and the color contrast and the color tones might be slightly different, then it is recommended really to set the white balance at every location. The option to change your custom white balance is in menus and if you go to the SHOOTING TAB 3 then above picture style you can click on that and get the option to change white balance it is not very difficult.

Does the T7 have the clean HDMI out? Can I use it with OBS for live stream?

[@lego_minifig]

Great video! Very informative, with an exception for that 24 frames myth. That myth needs to die immediately. In film its an adequate framerate with a minimum drop off in quality, but as soon as you enter interactive forms of media with higher frame rates and higher hertz displays there is a huge improvement in smoothness that the viewer can see and feel. Hence why many high-end phones are now including 95-120hz displays and many gaming monitors shoot for 240hz displays.

[@aciercraft7039]

Not all films needs to be smooth....high frame rates are more oriented to gaming

[@aciercraft7039]

I wanted to vlog and only when I bought it I figured out that it’s not the best for video...I have a hard time focusing it. I will definitely follow your instructions. But do you think that if I try a different lens it gets easier to focus? Thank you!

[@NikonD5200Channel]

If you can, it would be good to get a prime lens, as they tend to be sharper and particularly for video. However, that won't affect the action of focussing. If you are looking to produce something like my videos, you need to put the camera on manual - in the video menu, have the frame rate at 1080 25 or 30 fps. The Shutter speed should then be 1/60th sec. ISO should be 800 or 1600 at the most, and aperture should be around f8 - f11. It is the aperture which will ensure that you appear to be in focus, even if you move around slightly. If you can't get the f8 or f11 with these settings, you need more light.

I have a question which is: what settings do I have to set to get videos longer then 8 seconds? I have a canon Eos 2000d. I would love to know how to get longer video shots

[@NikonD5200Channel]

Hello, the most obvious solution to this problem is that you have set the camera onto video snapshot. this option allows you to shoot multiple videos and stitch them together in the camera. However, it does limit you to 2,4 or 8 second clips. Move the mode dial around to the video option, then in the menu, go to the second icon from the left and at the bottom of that submenu you will find video snapshot. make sure it is disabled. If not it will over ride anything else you ask the camera to do for videos. Good luck!

[@SAm-gx5ux]

Hi CameraWize I have a good question? On the Rebel t7 On movie mode is any way to have Autofocus without pressing the shuttering button ?

[@NikonD5200Channel]

hello, yes you can use the back focus button. This is the button top right on the back of the camera which has the minus magnifying glass. you will need to be in Video mode and then go to shooting menu 1 and down to Shutter/AE lock button. choose AE lock/AF and then you can use this button to focus instead of the shutter button.

[@NikonD5200Channel]

If you are in modes M, Av, Tv or P then you can go to the crosskeys on the back of the camera and choose the one at the 9 o'clock position. This is the Drive/self-timer mode and you can choose continuous shooting from there. Alternatively, you can press the Q button and choose the option, bottom left (which might read ONE SHOT) and change the option there. In the other modes, press the Q button and this will reveal the options open to you. You will see the option to change from single shot to continuous mode there.

I was considering buying the T7i over the T7 mainly due to the lack of an external microphone jack. When I searched for "T7i", I noticed some of the camera bodies had the red "Rebel T7i" logo, and some had the "800D" logo. There also seems to be a difference in the price between the 2 cameras, although I assumed they were the same (?). Do you have any idea what the difference is between the 800D and T7i, and why such a discrepancy (hundreds of dollars in some cases) in the price?

[@NikonD5200Channel]

Hello, yes Canon have an annoying habit of giving their cameras different names in different parts of the world, which can lead to confusion. The Canon T7i is also known as the 800D. they are both exactly the same camera. The Rebel T7 for example is also called the EOS 2000D and the Rebel T6 is called the EOS 1300D. The Rebel name is for the US market, the EOS name tends to be for the rest of the world.

[@kongsamrech1606]

Hello sir when I take photo on portraits mode the flash always on so can I control it

[@NikonD5200Channel]

The portrait mode tries to reduce the depth of field, so that the subject's face stands out against the background. To achieve this the camera will increase the shutter speed, widen the aperture, or increase the ISO. Obviously, you want to control the ISO to keep the image quality, so you shouldn't really go above 1,600, or 3,200 at most. If you have the kit lens, then the maximum aperture you have will be f3.5, which isn't a very wide aperture. If you are shooting in poor light, then the shutter speed can't get fast enough and so the flash the pop up, to help the camera increase the shutter speed. So, if you want to avoid the flash, you need to see if you can increase the ambient light, so that the camera can speed up the shutter speed without having to use the flash. Alternatively, use a different setting. See what the portrait settings are, and then try to shoot on sport mode - which also has a very fast shutter speed, but doesn't use flash, or shoot on P mode and turn the shutter speed up yourself. Practice is the key, I am afraid...

Hello, I don't have an 800d, but looking at the online PDF it does have an external microphone socket. If you plug a microphone in, it will take priority over the internal Mic. I am looking at this PDF, page 301: gdlp01.c-wss.com/gds/4/0300026114/01/eos-rebelt7i-800d-im-en.pdf

[@jmoss99]

What about the Write to SD card speed? I was reading where the Write to SD card for the Sony A7R ii is 8 seconds. How does the 2000D write in Video mode?

[@NikonD5200Channel]

Hi, I am sorry I don't really recognise the question, but in video mode, there are two limits - time and file size. Maximum time is 29 minutes, maximum file size is 4 GB. If you shoot at lowest quality you can shoot for 29 minutes. If you at the best quality you get 11 minutes. The write speed seems to be pretty instantaneous.

[@jmoss99]

Yes, I understand that there is the 29 minutes due to tax reasons. In photo mode where speed of the write to the SD card is important as it delays your ability to take another photo it seems to be a function of the SD memory speed itself. I have this camera and found that using a faster SD card shortened the time it takes to write and therefore allowed me to take the next photo sooner. As far as the 4 GB limit, I think if you are using one of the memory types XC maybe, that you can write 4 GB and keep going at the card will just start a new 4 GB segment. I can tell you that write speed to the SD, for photos, is not instantaneous. Try it out.

The IS version was the kit lens up to the 2000D/T7 cameras, and the DC lens is the new one, available for the 4000D, for example. The main differences are that the newer lens is lighter and doesn't have image stabilisation. In terms of image quality, I don't think there is much difference as the internal build is very similar.
