[@RAILWAY_FILMS]

reminder, there are G lenses that seem to out-perform GMSTR lenses out there. Obviously some of the newer G lenses seem to be better than older GMSTR lenses. Disclaimer : if you always use lenses the "same way" like you tend to go straight to wide open and that is how you are comparing lenses, you might not be operating in the GMSTR lens' optimal setting and that might be why you are not getting the super sharp image you are hoping for. Makes me wonder if they started to eliminate wider apertures just so you never get to see the less perfect image but if you are in the dark, and you want to sacrifice focus for exposure, maybe thats a good thing. but with drive-bye camera review pages on social media, they may have to limit the aperture in order to prevent the less "crisp" photos from getting into one of these chopping blocks

[@JohnDrummondPhoto]

Some bird facts: - The first two woodpeckers were not the same. The first is a Downy Woodpecker. The second is a Hairy Woodpecker. The Hairy is larger and has a much sturdier beak. The two species diverged from a common ancestor about 2 million years ago. - The woodpecker you videoed in Dundas is a juvenile Red-bellied Woodpecker. The adult has a red cap on the back of the head (female) or all the way up to the beak (male). They're very common here in New York but rare in Ontario, according to the Sibley guide. - The brown Black-crowned Night Heron is an immature bird from this year's brood. The gray one is an adult. Males and females have the same coloration. I'm writing as I'm still watching the video. "Chipmunk" is actually an American Red Squirrel.

I'm supposed to be studying for a zoology exam in university but I just found your channel and I can't stop listening to your beautiful voice!

[@thissidetowardscreen4553]

I find this channel to be the most comprehensive and constructive content on the Tube. There is not a day in which I have not been enlightened by your wisdom and perseverance! Your never- ending quest for the "perfect camera" is a micro-cosmism of the photographer's daily struggles. I appreciate it and learn from it. Thank You! The voice over work was wonderful, but sometimes I like to see the person narrating. Thanks again! I been using Micro 4/3rd and APS-C cameras. The full frame has always been out of my reach and if I did have a full frame, my other cameras would be useless. So, I stick with the less, so I don't have to be disappointed with the better!

[@harrison00xXx]

Funny how we always search for the perfect camera, but any photographer/videographer knows... the perfect camera doesnt exist! "I been using Micro 4/3rd and APS-C cameras. The full frame has always been out of my reach and if I did have a full frame, my other cameras would be useless" Dont be so sure about that! I entered full frame (had only full frame EF glass despite APS-C DSLRs!) after 10 years photography with the EOS RP for 999€. I really like the camera, ofc its entry level and basically a 2017 6D Mk2 sensor, but its awesome especially with "proper" glass! As i got into wildlife, the fun i had with the RP turned ofcourse fast into a "nightmare", the RP just sucks for wildlife and video. I got a few nice shots but damn, 1 out of 2000 shots is annoying especially because the camera is too slow (in many different ways) I got now the R7, APS-C and even slighly more expensive than the RP, which is A LOT BETTER (for wildlife/video!) I still struggle if i should keep the RP or just enjoy a nice spare/secondary body. Just astrophotography rocks already (I do with RP and prime lens milky way on a basic tripod while R7 is automated via notebook as imaging camera on the telescope) If you are still into video a lot, ofc full frame is too expensive, but with M4/3 and APS-C i guess video is already the best performance you can get for "little" money. I mean "little" is nowadays like 1000$ for a single piece so already a lot. But from a photographers perspective, a EOS RP or 2nd hand A7R II (or even III) is already pretty affordable and nice. All the cameras i had survived me, even found an old Sony Cybershot DSC-P100 (about 15 years+ old) and its still working. So considering you can use the camera until it gets useless... Full frame can be good too! Just think about wide angle.... a 16-35mm 2.8 gets on APS-C or hell, even harder on M4/3 pretty useless as wide angle.

[@harrison00xXx]

But i dont have much clue about M4/3 or APS-C systems, i used APS-C cameras for 10 years but only bought higher quality full frame (EF) glass. So upgrade to full frame was anyways planned since about 2010 already but just not affordable yet. Heck, i didnt even used the 18-55mm APS-C kit lens for a long time and sold it early.

[@Nickknows00]

Bro this is the best video you’ve made in a while, I’m loosing it 😂 there is nothing funnier that you owning a bad camera

[@DeepteshLovesTECH]

I just fine APSC the sweet spot for IQ/Size/Price combination. I can definitely afford FF, but I still went with APSC. FF lenses are a bit too big to be discreet. I find it intimidating.

[@peterreber7671]

I love my APS-C camera, and pity the people with their FF ones. The weight, the size, just no comparison.

[@PatrickWithCamera]

Same here, tryed one trip with sony FE 200-600, great AF and IQ, but it was a bazooka, heavy, giant, if someone walked by he was looking at me like a terrorist with some rocket launcher, so I stayed with apsc a6600+70-350

[@harrison00xXx]

Or just go anywhere between. Im using normally full frame - and so all of my lenses are full frame, but i have also a faster and much better for wildlife suited APS-C, the EOS R7. Tried the R6 and though about the R5, but in the end, i just want a small camera as well, good thing the EOS RP does the job of a small, light universal camera very good and as said - while the R7 is superior performing for any other needs like wildlife, 120 fps video and astrophotography.

M43 isn't and can't possibly be "best of both worlds" in terms of quality. Well they might at least get on the APS-C level if they add a LOT of computational photography techniques, but they are just not there yet.

[@12symmo]

20MP m43 cameras have the same pixel density as 32MP APS-C cameras so there’s no reason the image quality shouldn’t be theoretically comparable.

[@eelco6587]

@@NN-lo5fy It really depends on where you looking for. If the best anti dust, one of the best weathersealing, the best image stabilisation, very wide range of quality lenses isn't enough for you. For me it is. The lens offerings in M43 are very good suit better my needs than those of Fujifilm. For noise reduction I use DXO DeepPrime which upgrades it beyond many 35mm sensors. And other brands are not taking APS-C too seriously anymore. I don't know any professional APS-c offerings currently besides Fujifilm XS2H. I have the OM-1 with Olympus 150-400 and there is nothing comparable price, weight and size wise from other brands.

I shoot birds till dusk--larger sensor makes a big difference together with bigger aperture. When it comes to serious wildlife everyone has his/her own style and should decide on the gear accordingly. There is no one rule that can fit all the needs.

[@河粉-k1h]

Sometimes I need more reach---- I need APS-C or a high-pixel full frame to crop in post. There are just so many different objects and styles.

[@河粉-k1h]

Sometimes I need the all mighty 600mm F4, because the birds only start their activities close to sunset. I tried smaller apertures and something like Denoise AI. It's not very effective in my case, but others have reported better results. You just have to try it out yourself.

I saw nothing wrong with the Olympus videos. Sony images may be technically better but after KZbin compression I don’t think you’re gaining anything. If you’re shooting professionally, and you have excellent screens to view the recordings on, then FF helps but otherwise the micro 4/3 would be perfectly fine.

[@QuizWave594]

Can we notice different between full frame vs m4/3 in KZbin? Please feedback..i always think that m4/3 has less quality than apsc.. Is it true? Does camera sensor size matter for video quality? I am confused.... Which one better for video(prefer 1080p because my laptop couldn't handle 4k) Canon m50 Or panasonic g85?

[@te0pol159]

@@QuizWave594 APS-C versus MFT is a joke, you literally cannot tell the difference. (good video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/r6fRe517hNSVjsU) Maybe bokeh and some very pixel-peeping grain but those don't really matter in video (especially 1080p).

[@professionalpotato4764]

@@QuizWave594 In good light there's not much difference. After ISO 3200 you'll start to notice m43 does a bit worse than APS-C. Good APS-C sensors like ones used by Fuji are usable up till 6400. If you're going APSC, just get Fuji. Or wait for a new Sony model. For M43 a used Gh5m2 could be good. Also, even if your laptop can't edit 4k, just work with proxies. Shoot in 4k, export in 1080p for better sharpness and less noise. There's no point shooting 1080p on most sensors because the cameras aren't even giving you good quality. Fuji and Sony APSC line skips in 1080p so everything is blurry af. Not sure about m43 sensors, but I think it's fairly similar.

I prefer full frame lenses (EF 70-200, RF 800, RF35mm 1.8, ...) on full frame body or with 1,6x crop on R7 for more reach, video and proper wildlife capabilities at all (instead of teleconverters) Since i was going to full frame with the EOS RP (for stills only), i am really stuck into, especially since i just can make use of all the higher quality EF lenses i got over the past years 2nd hand. Tried the R6 as well and i still have it, but RP+R7 is an absolutely perfect combination for me - RP does everything (included milky way astrophotography with regular lenses), R7 for wildlife, video and astrophotography on a telescope. I can easily go on the R7 at a high ISO as with the RP, if it gets just too noisy (which it gets often, noise reduction completely disabled) Topaz DenoiseAI does a good job.

You hit on a great point Kasey. The Panny setup, particularly the GH6 + 50-200 is magical, first off, and also a reasonable size to put in a sling bag for example. If you are bringing full frame gear EVERYONE knows you are because the equivalent FF lens is 3 feet long!

[@harrison00xXx]

My RF 800 F11 and RP (or R7, 1280mm) is laughing. But yeah, its in shooting position also a little bit on the big side, but the RF 600 F11 is super small (and much reach on APS-C) I use a super comact entry level full frame, the RP for most of my things and go for APS-C/R7 on same mount (with full frame lenses) for more reach/wildlife. Still very lightweight, but the RF 800 is not really compact, just in storage/travel position. So fullframe and small can work. Just think about the good old EF 400mm F4 DO lens! For 400mm F4 it was compact and light!

Actually all the Olympus cameras were fun (very important) to use for wildlife photography. I loved the Canon 5D MkIII the most for video but it is SO heavy to take on bush walks/hikes.

The iPhone 11 Pro for macro wildlife videography. 2. The Nikon P950 (at 100 ISO only) for wildlife photography. 3. The Olympus TG-6 for macro wildlife photography. It would be AWESOME to see you test the tiny sensor cameras like the Sony RX10 IV and Nikon P1000 plus my current favorite cameras too as they might surprise you! Stick to 100 ISO though!

I love your channel. You have a great sense of humour, and a knack for expressing the frustrations and yearnings of every camera-user in an approachable manner. But... sometimes I wonder if you're "doing it wrong" on purpose. First, by filming things awkardly for the "absurd" effect, like that bird at 15:26 whose head is behind a tree. You could probably take two steps to the side for a clear line of sight. Second, by pushing your gear to its limits unnecessarily. For example, filming a turtle at 120p. As far as I know, turtles have no wings to flutter, and there's little risk of them flying out of the frame. In those instances, it seems like you're using 120p or 240p just to complain about the loss of image quality. Similarly, in your "vlog" style videos you often march down the street with no discernible purpose other than to compain about focus tracking and image stabilisation. I know it's part of your "thing", but sometimes I feel like shouting at the screen: Dude, just use the camera as intended and you'll have much less to compain about! Just had to say it.

[@mignik01]

The advantage with Micro four thirds is that because of the sensor size they can pack it full of features for less money. If you do the same with a full frame sensor, it'll be more expensive. This is what infuriates me that Panasonic is still sticking with contrast detect. If they had reliable autofocus, I know plenty of people that wouldn't have switched. Now they lost the market. My G9 is perfect for everything except when I have to track something. They could've been the go to wildlife camera. It still is good and it is amazing how you can get so much reach in such a small package (lens + camera). BUT GET THE BLOODY AUTOFOCUS RIGHT. I know. Manual focus exist but when you are tracking a bird, I'm not good enough to keep up.

[@eelco6587]

I've never seen someone regretting so much choices LOL. Maybe you can borrow the GH6 for a while before buying, so you won't regret buying it. When it is not filling your needs. On the other hand keep taking bad decision for the greater good. So other people can avoid them.

[@Drunken_Hamster]

I've watched like 5 videos on this subject and still understand little. From what I can tell, it seems APS-C is supposed to give you better low-light while maintaining DOF, while also not losing what MFT has in terms of advantages. Basically, it lets you breach into the professional realm more completely, but again... Information seems to be conflicting. Either way, I think it's between APS-C and MFT for me. Full frame is just too large, heavy, and expensive and I personally wouldn't need that level of quality, either. The next most important question would be who has the best codecs that make 24p and 25p look smooth as opposed to the jerky crap I usually see? I know RED can pull it off, but if I'm spending all this money on a proper camera, I want it to be a hybrid video/photography camera.

Very entertaining. And beautiful footage. But different shots don't really allow for reliable comparison.

Night Heron: it's a juvenile (the brown one) and an adult.

[@rossaff6238]

At 8min--Your two herons are both Black-crowned Night Herons. The streaked one is a juvenile and the other one an adult.

Good old reliable fuji autofocus at 17:11

I moved from a GH5 (4 years) to an A1 (one year now). I know, not really comparable, and for those four years I loved my GH5. That said, do I like my A1 3.25 x more than the GH5? Absolutely! When I need it, the auto focus is next level. The clean ISO at 4000 is amazing. The 4K 120p. Brilliant. The auto white balance out of the camera is also far more accurate. The 50 mp photos… you can crop for days! And I don’t even shoot sports where the 30 fps would be amazing. My point? You can buy happiness, at least in the world of cameras.

[@河粉-k1h]

Nothing can compare to the all mighty A1, not Z9, not R3. It's the absolute King.

Auto WB? Just set it to overcast, sunny or indoor fluorescent, auto WB needs to perish its bad and should never been made in the first place. And its no excuse to use it, its not like we live on a planet were light colour outside changes rapidly in 10 minutes.

[@peruswlkp]

em... are you comparing Sony A1 with Lumix GH5? really? lets compare maybe with Lumix G3 and the gap will be even much bigger... or maybe with Nokia 3310.. that whould be cool!!

[@joeltam7079]

Fantastic your explanation...!!! I am a newcomer and want to have a lot of knowledge.

[@JoaquimGonsalves]

I watched all the way through.😸

[@mountainhobo]

It would be cool to compare in the same environment the Sony A7S III footage to Canon R5. Also, could you talk about Sony A7 IV and A7R IVA for video? I understand you might not have them handy, but with your experience you might have an opinion on them.

It is good to have options to choose from! More options is better than fewer options! Different tools for different tasks and people! I use FF only for portraits and low light. I prefer APS-C and M43 for 99% of the things I like to do! And I use M43 90% of the time! Macro, travel, street, Real Estate, Landscape and video!

[@alexanderhugestrand]

Here's the truth about sensor size: Bigger is bigger, while smaller is smaller.

[@SMGJohn]

And bigger = better unless its Foveon then APS-C = Medium Format CMOS.

[@AlGreenLightThroughGlass]

Each to their own I guess; but an obsession on chasing clinical perfection can be expensive and despairing. I find my old compact fuji kit gives me nice soft skin tones - my focus then is on composition and lighting. For that reason I like Henri Cartier-Bresson's quote: “Sharpness is a bourgeois concept.”

[@splashsommer690]

No GH6 yet!!..i used my fuji & xf 23mm 1:4 as a weight to glue the Samsung S22 ultra. back together..big mistake to buy samsung ..but the S21 ultra Leica wasn't available..now the GH6 is hear go for it its amazing 3micron pixels it might be as good or better...than the S21 ultra Leica

[@koolkutz7]

I have never seen such a lazy hummingbird! I am viewing your video on a 27 inch 4K monitor and gotta say that the Sony A7S III 4K 120fps looks really good! It would be interesting to see some more 4K 120fps from the Panasonic GH6 too :-)

Thank you for another video dear sir

From the FROs last video we found out fujifilm takes everyone off the preview demo list if you ever mention anything negative about Fuji. Why you never see him mention it because a previous video he mentioned the lens was slow to focus. Perhaps the Fuji reviews are more moderated then we know.

[@samham3901]

A question ⁉️ for those who shooting video, why they don't get video camera, camcorder?? I'm ready wondering.. Thanks 💖

Nice going on the Fuji focus peaking. I have this theory, depending on the subject, that the contrast focus peaking is looking for may actually be occurring just above the surface of the object. A kind of micro glare that focus peaking sees and not the actual surface. My simple Japanese iron teapot with it's miriad facets pattern is a case in point. You'd say, well stop down, or hey, it's only happening a tiny fraction of a distance on top of the surface, it should still be in focus... But.... BTW, I had a Canon 600mm with a version II two times extender and forget the name of my jazzy tripod. You really needed to pack it in it's case. Which meant car. And really meant you needed a folding table to set up on. Mine never left the flat. I did have a view of the east bay to play with...but of course those heat waves. And they're still around at night shooting the moon. Sensor Canon 5D Mark II. Never liked it's video resolution. Grass fields looked just bad.

[@exit_hero2230]

Everyone always says the bigger the sensor the better. I agree in most circumstances like low light and depth of field and prefer not doing any math and having my lenses multiplied for crop etc. That said I do love 4/3 for video the stabilization is usually better and aoc is like in the middle obviously with better lowlight than 4/3 , and up to par video (most the time. So what I’m really saying is there really is a purpose FOR ALL in every field period. There isn’t one camera to rule then alll, there have been close like Panasonic gh6, but still not one camera is perfect it’s all subjective and what ur willing to go with or without

[@te0pol159]

I have to disagree with the depth-of-field one. The problem is, you need to use your camera differently with MFT. You can't just create bokeh anywhere like with FF. Bokeh is very much possible with MFT, but you need to go look for it and understand the physics behind it. And after all: A) Search for famous photographs on the web, how many of them have bokeh? None. B) In video, you don't even really want bokeh. Honestly, it's pretty disturbing.

[@TechnoBabble]

@@te0pol159 maybe you should look up said famous photos for yourself, plenty of them have clearly visible focus falloff.

[@te0pol159]

@@TechnoBabble There is of course some bokeh, but very little of it and all of the photographs are possible to recreate with MFT. And the famous photographs that do have bokeh, are usually portraits.

Absolutely amazing review as usual ;-) I still use my XT3 for video. The XH2 seems to be a good replacement. Not the XH2s though…
