God I'm crying here 😭 😅, the minute the boat docked I knew 😅

[@KenCoCreates]

“Be proud of what you have and ashamed at the same time” bro Casey that’s so funny 😂😂😂😂

[@MrAlroyNdhlovu]

I love how chilled and nonchalant your videos are. Doing what you want to do, unbothered about most of the things creators are worried about- setups, fancy editing, grading, and yet you content stays relevant and solid.

[@xyzct]

The brother is uniquely hilarious and entertaining ... just being himself.

[@ScottSilva]

Those slo-mo BEE-roll and Butterfly shots were epic.

[@Bcutter]

That bee roll was freaking amazing though

[@jerrytsunami]

The teflon bit at 5:48 had me laughing hard. Love this location, man, you had some great compositions in this one!

[@Bcutter]

I am so impressed by how you can just talk, eloquently, packed with information without going off on unnecessary side-rants, without a script!

[@theamericanaromantic]

I swear to god this reminded me of a Monty Python skit when the boats pulled up. I love this channel.

[@Maebbie]

lmao the rowing team just getting into your frame, now thats cinema

[@cado64]

Dude, this video is so entertaining. Subscribed.

[@CheapCharlieChronicles]

Casey taking vlogs to the next level!

[@Rufus-OG]

Your audio had 3d pop .. you really captured the dragon boat racing the helicopter 👍🏻

[@sliceofmymind]

I so happy you are using ND's and your footage looks amazing. Keep it up bro!

[@mankepoot9440]

Until there is a perfect camera i have an excuse to suck at both photography and videography.

[@CheapCharlieChronicles]

I used to be friends with a guy involved professionally in video production for 30 years. He has done everything from commercials for MTV and CNN to documentaries. At the time I knew him he was getting into social media and just used his phone, old go pro and a sh*ty Nikon bridge camera he got at Costco for $300.

[@SoulMedia1]

Love your style and message. Creative and hilarious 😂

[@TimBrownTown]

I think you're onto something about the smaller megapixel sensor with a 16X9 format. However, we might not get the 16X9 format if vertical formats are popular. Eventually, people will regret ever shooting in vertical format when mobile devices move to either virtual reality, hologram or projection that matches the format we naturally see in (unless we evolve to where our eyes are stacked vertically).

[@jwate]

Ha, I’m glad you included the rowing team. That butterfly shot was awesome.

[@Chorum28]

This is going to be a minimalist channel in 5 years

[@JoeMischiefGXC]

Phillip Hammertongue. Quite the ladies man... 😂

[@donwarrington3866]

7 minutes in when the girl passes with the dog you bend down, "Who tilted the camera down to keep you in frame" thought you were a "One Man" film crew, lol hidden assistant? great work!

[@johnblunt1834]

You're right. Everything works, so be happy with it. The most important reason for buying it.A good lesson!

[@charliejg]

Did you see that one guy hobbling after getting out of the boat? LOL! That looked like a tourist thing where they can experience what it's like to be on a row team. That coxswain was giving them hell! Thanks for the laughs today. Have a rockin' Tuesday.

[@dortiz82]

Brah!!! This video was epic AF!!! Totally unscripted 🔥

[@Filmographix-Praneelramanan]

"whatever you have right now, be proud of it and ashamed" that's is true bro... i have a nikon z50 i am proud of it as i use it to earn money but at the same time i am a little ashamed too

[@jonboz7585]

I've been transferring some HDV tapes shot on my old Canon Vixia HV30. I like the zoom capabilities and the resolution isn't that bad for its age. The downside is transferring it into the computer for editing. No drag and drop in that system, but the images were precious movies of my dogs, now deceased.

[@billmakesmovies]

I should have never gotten rid of my HV40. One of the best little cameras canon ever made, I think!

[@reemalhadrami5274]

your dogs aren't deceased brother , they just found their way to heaven ahead of you and they're waiting you patiently by the pearly gates to take them on a cheerful walk on the infinite meadows shooting them again on your Vixia with a smile on your face.

[@intothevideoverse]

Thank you as always! I needed that this morning as I sit in my grey box where dreams go to die.

[@c-LAW]

Middle of the day is the worse time to shoot. Your camera seems to be balancing light and shadows well. But it's also overcast, so that diffusesthe light too. Mid day just looks bad summer or winter. When I use to shoot portraits and weddings, I always shot outdoor before 10am and after 4pm.

[@timrodriguez1]

That butterfly footage was awesome!

[@Thr3-Words]

It was a dark sunny day

[@TomSkulander]

One of your best Casey.

[@MrBlackReviews]

You could make a video talking about anything and ill watch til the end! 👏So funny and hate when you have a place all to yourself and as soon as you hit record its the most popular place to be 😂

[@radiozelaza]

analog camcorder (Hi8 or SVHS) paired with a digital recorder with analog inputs - and you have a nice setup for vintage footage lol

[@jaymiller6873]

i needed this video.. subed looking forward to more

[@stowgood]

this place was fun I loved the interruptions and the crispyness

[@imagenatura]

The premise of this video is exactly why I shoot on a Panasonic G100.

[@stephencrabtree6599]

After decades of searching for the perfect camera, you know you will end up back at Micro Four Thirds. Free Microwave Sushi with every lens purchased. 🤔 🤣

[@TrephineArtist]

The video looked great, I appreciate the humour too! 😄

[@Icallyousowhat]

crazy vlog, first the rowers then the helicopter 😂

[@c-LAW]

Back in the good ol' days, photographers would buy their lifetime camera (a hasselblad and/or a mamiya and maybe rollei). From that point we'd buy lenses for use-case (portrait, candid, group photos, landscape, macro for products). This all ended when digital came along. Digital was great except you could never get 100% of when you need except MORE --- more is all you need.

[@iaincphotography6051]

Has anyone ever gone into a restaurant and asked the chef what cooker he uses and what size pans?

[@truckernige]

hi Kasey, the bee and the butterfly in slo-mo was epic.

[@geekanoids]

The P40 Pro butterfly footage is awesome, thanks for sharing it.

[@effystrip2480]

I'm so glad you glued your hair back on, I was going to miss it so much... so much...

[@dermotfaloon_streetmonkey]

More than a decade ago Magic Lantern showed we CAN do ridiculous RAW with massive range to regular 10 year old cards. Where did those geniuses go?

[@SapphicCode]

Canon intentionally made it harder to reverse engineer their firmware.

[@dermotfaloon_streetmonkey]

@@SapphicCode Should have employed them. Shame.

[@patrickarmitageWWW]

[@IllustrationsByPete]

I was just watching your zv-1 and zv-e1 videos and I'm sure you don't live there anymore but I miss the dumpster vlogs and "hi-ya" cuts. Good times.

Oh oooo Videophile? As KC intended. Can't wait for the movie. Let me get a 98inch TV with vacuum tubes... 😅

[@thissidetowardscreen4553]

Budget gear is the way to save money and not get heartbroken when your $5000.00 camera dies. With budget cameras you can buy so many instead of just one. DSLR for photos, Point and shoots for fun, Camcorder for video and no room. Always entertaining content.

[@peperclipsfilms]

Somehow a take getting ruined by a helicopter just works when it's from a channel called 'Camera Conspiracies'. Loved it.

[@BloodHoundDiesel]

Hi! you have to buy drone! That is flying camera, it fits to this channel! Also it keeps you bussy, there is almost endles learning curve. :D

[@TomasWatchReviews]

I am using a +-10 year old camcorder on all my videos 😅 It has an external mic input and can focus on small things up close, that is all I need 😊

[@PrayingAttentionWithDea]

Can you sleep? That mind of yours... thanks for sharing it. This is brilliant comedy.

[@carl3810]

I miss ufc conspiracies! I would of loved your take on the recent fights.

[@dj.h7424]

I bought an ‘unexciting’ R10 on prime day as I’m an old hobo and only got here via vegetable police. I am however excited to adapt some takumar prime lenses from back in my darker darkroom days. The cinema is very unlikely to be ours!.. but I do feel inspired. Thanks Kasey it’s all indirectly your fault! virgin flax oil on..oreos anyone? I’ll go

[@albertfetch3503]

If they had started to portage like the old vignette, that would have been cinematic!!!

[@freddymuggs3902]

That bee was so cool!

[@billmakesmovies]

I was watching my old DV tape footage out of the VX2100 and DVX100B, and something about that image seems better (at times) than my Sony FX3 and FX6. There’s some sort of magic in those old cameras that they just don’t make anymore.

[@billmakesmovies]

@@jimthrowaway I once shot a 40 minute short on an XH-A1 with the Letus adapter. Those were weird times! Camcorders hold a special place in my heart still. Wishing Canon would stick a good 4K sensor in the XF205 body so I can justify buying one again. Don’t need one bad enough to spend $4500 on an XF605, and they ruined that camera for me anyway by not including the rotating handgrip. I would buy a 4K XF205 body day one, and drag it around with me everywhere and document all the things like I did with my DV cameras, and the XF100 that I had for many years. I know they have the XF75, but I think it’s weird. I also think we’re due to see Sony update their prosumer camcorder lineup, so maybe they’ll hit the nail on the head with their next attempt. I really want to have IR capabilities back in my life again too!

[@johnfirewire]

I started out with a DCR-VX1000. Those camcorders had 3 sensors/chips. One for red, one for green, and one for blue. Back then they talked about how that was superior to having all color sampling on a single sensor. Maybe there was something to that

[@FutureChaosTV]

The magic is your (former) youth baked into nostalgia. So, utterly fictious.

[@johnfirewire]

@jimthrowaway if I remember correctly going to CMOS was an effort to cut costs and going back to one large sensor from 3 smaller sensors was also a way to cut costs without sacrificing pixel count. There are definitely some gems in the old gear we used to use. I never like it when people dismiss things as being outdated. A perfect example is the mentality that a great video game from 20 years ago is now terrible because video games are more advanced now. No, it's not terrible. You should still be able to appreciate it's greatness

[@brandonnance6802]

Well done with the location shoot, footage looks great, ditch the wrinkled linen trend.

[@JoeSzilagy]

Speaking of 'Spam' (the delicious lunch or breakfast treat, that's fun to eat!), in Japan, some friends- far wealthier than myself- consider it to be a bit of a treat, even though Japan is known for great food everywhere!

[@bitspacemusic]

I'm flying to Finland tomorrow and was watching some of last year's videos shot by my cousin's kids. It's 1080p on the original Sony RX-100 they borrowed from me. It looks great, the only thing that looks weird to me is the 50FPS. I'm debating if I should even bring my a7s III. I'm barely bringing any luggage. It would be so light with just that RX in my pocket. I know I'll be dragging everything from 35mm to 200-600mm with me come morning.

[@hartyewh1]

It's good exercize if nothing else. Welcome and hope you enjoy Finland assuming you're not from here. We seem to be having rainy shit weather for the near future😅

[@navireljan1857]

Honestly my no.1 Major complain is the Image stabilization, LIKE Sony and Fuji lol like the will always advertise increasing higher stops of IBIS but did not really improve. Dynamic range also but it's kind of hard to accomplish given it will depend a lot on Sensor technology and LOG.

[@AprilClayton]

How dare that rowing team disturb the slow motion butterfly footage. It never fails. Noisy humans are a threat to all nature vlogs

[@simpletraveltech]

OMG dude, I've shot with the R8 + 24-240mm (distortion misery) an entire weekend in the mountains. This is now my favourite camera kit to pickup and go. It's mindblowingly perfect in photos and videos. I'll post stuff soon but I really recommend you try this setup.

[@briandipierro8865]

I wish my Sony A57 didn't die, I had a 16-250mm lens for that thing and I took it everywhere until it just stopped working. It's such a fun range. I got a lot of wildlife shots on that thing and even if it was chunky, it was such a good time. I want that range again

[@simpletraveltech]

@@briandipierro8865Yeap that's even better than the 24-240mm RF from canon. Indeed it's incredibly versatile and can do almost anything. I wasn't expecting it to be good for filming though. The 24-240mm RF is a very distorted lens but the camera is correcting the image. Still I wasn't expecting it to be just so much fun!

[@careywest]

Somehow those rowers are even bigger nerds than you. Or even us, watching videos about a nerd watching nerds on a boat.

[@flightographist]

When I was younger, I couldn't picture myself as a serious photographer, but now I am putting serious effort into developing that ability. I think it was because I wasn't in the right frame of mind and maybe had problems with discovering what material I wanted to photograph, it turned out the food stuffs like bread and other baked goods were just to grainy for my taste. An art teacher, Gary Low, told me I had problems focusing and that if I kept on flashing in public I would end up in jail. I changed my ways but still, as I am out in public, I often have to resist the urge to burst.

[@sausageskin]

What's the lens used in the first part 2:57? I like that I can see the background and it's not blurry, unlike the later part 6:13 where the background is so blurry it does not look nice at all. Like why do we blur the background here? It's a nature landscape background, it's beautiful, with all the trees and the lake. Why blur it? Why bring us to the lake and then hide it from us?

[@edwardferry8247]

You can tell she was mad he was filming in the shot she walked into, which is sort of funny when she could have just walked around and gotten slightly more exercise (the purpose of walking the dog).

[@The-Logician]

I’ll take the C70 as a webcam even further, my C70 sits in a dedicated teleprompter style box with beamsplitter glass to mirror an entire 24 inch monitor (invert the monitor image with a Decimator MD-HX to get a proper image that I see from beamsplitter) and then put my meetings on that monitor. I’m looking at the meeting, and they see me looking directly at them, not like 98% of other folks in online meeting where we’re either looking up their nostrils or at the sides of their face…

you know MFT was the perfect form factor for Video. You could get a 16-20MP sensor for good dynamic range. Small enough that the IS was out of this world. I wish Panasonic would put out a successor to the G9 with Dual Pixel AF. That would be about the perfect EDC Camera. But outside of EDC Camera, I'm sure you have learned by now, that the perfect camera depends on your use case. There is no 1 perfect depending on use, right? Perfect landscape camera isn't the perfect video camera, vs Sports or wildlife photography etc.
