BEST Self Filming Setup for EVERY BUDGET! | Film Your Own Hunts!

[@DougShoeBushcraft]

Canon Vixia HF R52 isn't exactly the same as the Vixia HF R800. One of the differences is that the HF R800 has threads to attach various lenses, filters, and a lens hood. One trick is to glue a step-up ring on an older model Vixia and use those threads to attach lenses, etc. HF R600 /R60 and later Vixia (R700, R70, R800, R60) come with the lens threads. Older models don't- R100, R10, R200, R20, R300, R30, R300, R400, R40, R500, R50

Thanks for the info! I never could figure out the difference. Appreciate it!

How is that 200 dollars more

[@HuntingHomestead122]

Hey just letting you know this is one of the best videos on KZbin for different price point film setups, and encouraged me to get in the game. I bought the Canon Vixia HF R52 on Ebay for $110 bucks. I'm having fun with my boys and don't have a lot of money invested. Thanks.

[@huntingwithcannons]

Thanks man! Glad it helped!

[@pdoutdoors1506]

Man I dont know how you dont have more subs. Editing is on point, the story you tell is good, and video quality is great. I hope your channel makes it, keep it up!

[@huntingwithcannons]

Thanks man! I appreciate it. Glad you enjoy the content!

[@widebevel44]

Brotha thanks for taking the time to do this. If it's not to late, go to school and be a teacher, it's in you ! Except instead of getting the summers off, see if they'll swap it to hunting season !! 😄

[@huntingwithcannons]

No problem! That would be a pretty good gig! Thanks for watching man

[@sweeetleeyt8414]

This is the most helpful video i’ve ever watched. Me and my friends are trying to getta channel running but we couldn’t find anything for our Budget. I appreciate the helpful advice!

[@huntingwithcannons]

Thanks for watching! Glad you found it helpful. Best of luck to you and your friends!

[@nomad5454]

this was very helpful i wanted to start filming my hunts for more of a spot and stalk so will defiantly try the go pro route combined with a scope cam

[@huntingwithcannons]

Glad you found it helpful!

[@BackwoodsFilms]

The microphone shoe you're mentioning is actually a cold shoe. A hot shoe mount is one that has an electronic connection with the device being mounted on it, which in this case would mean you wouldn't need to plug the mic into the camera's mic port because it would already connect to the camera via the hot shoe. A cold shoe is simply a mount for accessories like microphones, lights, viewfinders, etc., that have no electronic connection with the camera. Typically, a Canon hot shoe would pair with a Canon brand mic, Sony with a Sony mic... it's kind of a way to keep you buying more of that manufacturer's products.

[@huntingwithcannons]

Yes I realized I had made the mistake of saying that after the video had been uploaded. Thanks for pointing it out!

[@kirkdahlstrom9665]

Well Done !! best video I have seen on self filming set ups!! so it seems like filming with a mirrorless and having to manually zoom in and out might be a problem when it comes down to little movement once you spot a target animal. thanks for the helpful info and keep up the excellent work!!! 👍

[@huntingwithcannons]

Appreciate the kind words! Glad you found it helpful!!

[@Nordorch53]

Great video, informative, phone still cost but doesn’t add extra camera cost👍

bro u dont know how much this helped me out ive been looking on how to attach a light or mic to my camcorder and this is it. appreciate it.

[@huntingwithcannons]

Glad it helped!

[@kylesiroky8113]

Thanks for the video, I’m just getting into filming and looking to find the right camera gear and laptop to get started this cleared up a lot. Any recommendations on a laptop and editing software? Definitely just got a new subscriber!

[@huntingwithcannons]

Glad you found it helpful! I would recommend a Mac. As far as editing software goes, it really comes down to personal preference. I personally use premier pro but I know a lot of people are starting to use davinci resolve. If you are new to editing, there is nothing wrong with getting started in something simple like iMovie. It’s really just what works best for you!

[@kylesiroky8113]

@@huntingwithcannons Appreciate the feedback and information!

[@kylesiroky8113]

Also i had a question on the g7x. Does it do good in low light? I’m thinking about going with the cheaper camcorder and buy a better camera that can do good in low light or should i spend more on a better one and which one would that be

11:04 1.8 lens on this camera isnt the same as 1.8 Lens on ff dslr, its completely different 12:03 Canon RP in 4k has a big 1,7x crop so if you want good 4k video its better to buy for example canon r10 with a lens for apsc and you would get better quality

[@TheNewBowunter]

R6 footage is far superior! But yes it’s a bit harder to film with…but it’s totally worth it.

[@hudson_Sanders]

Great video man! Love the effort in listing all the gear! 👍

[@huntingwithcannons]

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed

[@jordansod7553]

Great video. With that first camera and the muddy arm, when you did the zoom it seemed so easy. Does the arm allow you to zoom or were you doing that on the camera? Getting my first set up, so new to this. Sorry if that seems ridiculous

[@huntingwithcannons]

I was just doing it on the camera. Glad you enjoyed!

[@drewfiglo6834]

What memory card do you recommend for the action camera? Thanks for the content.

[@huntingwithcannons]

Since it is an action camera it will need to be a micro sd. Really you can’t go wrong with what you use, just stay away from the super cheap ones. Sandisk is a high quality affordable brand that I would recommend!

[@Young_Gunoutdoors]

If you are still looking to get a tree arm, I’m about to build my DIY carbon fiber arm. I think it’s going to cost me about $100 to make. If I like it I’ll show you how i did it

[@andrewfields7158]

What mic do you wear to edit in audio over the action cam?

[@huntingwithcannons]

I either have the comica wireless mic or a Rhode shotgun mic on my main camera. Any microphone will work, just depends on what works best for you in your situation

[@insideoutinspectionsplus2363]

If you are not self filming would you still buy the camcorder in the $7000 budget ? Or just stick with the mirrorless

[@huntingwithcannons]

I personally would go with the mirrorless because they are more versatile, giving you the option to also get really professional grade pictures as well as high quality video

[@Mgamingbrawl]

Do you have an other camera recommendation for the same price (under 325 $) that could replace the Vixia HF r52 because we can’t ship it where I live

[@Mgamingbrawl]

Is the canon hf r800 a good camera that I should buy?

[@huntingwithcannons]

Yes!

[@Mgamingbrawl]

Do all the thing that you mentioned in the 500💲price range fit on it ? Like the mic 🎙️,the pivot ect …

[@wiscopursuits1306]

Is there a remote control option for the Canon VIXIA HF-R52?

Unfortunately it’s not compatible with the R52

What cage do you have the AKASO EK7000 action camera in? The one that comes with it is crap if you want to attach it to a battery bank.
