Can you get a GREAT camera for under $5?! | Thrift Store Camera Challenge!

[@TMSProductions]

This was a crazy video to shoot, probably the most eventful photo battle we've done yet! If you guys try out the challenge for yourselves with a cheap camera from a thrift store or even one you have laying around, make sure to share it with us on Instagram @tmsproductions_ !

[@matthewkeough6164]

Bro, not even a mask for the thrift store?

[@tenpuzzles]

Why no masks mate?

[@tatyanashumyacher7508]

Hello

[@skitzxxmagic2425]

Can I have a camera 📷

[@qwertykeyboard5901]

Are you all clones?

[@jc-px8ox]

I was this day old when I realized tms stood for their names 😅

[@TMSProductions]

Hahahaha no way!

LOL!

[@orfilms1597]

Imagine not being a true fan😂

[@patrickeckert643]

Yo me too 😂😂😂

[@MikaHeiskanen]

You really put blood, sweat and tears into this video. I love the struggle XD Just shows that life as a photographer/videographer isn't perfect.

[@theothertonydutch]

Challenges make this type of shit fun!

[@maxsanchez2123]

“winning photo was shot by this $4 camera” plus the $10 monthly fee for photoshop smh. Steven should have won this challenge for actually doing the challenge.

[@williamkline6450]

I kind of agree. It’s a photo taking challenge, not an editing challenge

[@user-vn3si7vs5u]

Free trial

[@itsyyan]

I mean, not technically tho cause u still can do that editting with $0 and even just on a smartphone but both of them really did a great job with the photos🔥

[@willster2967]

Photopea is basically an exact clone of photo shoot that’s free on browser. Give it a try sometime, you’ll be surprised how easy it is to edit photos to a super high quality for cheap or even free.

[@jp_jas]

This is exactly the mentallity I struggle with a lot. I do think the real art is unedited photos though 99% of them that we see and are impressed online / compare to are actually edited, often quite heavily…

[@trentedits670]

I still don’t understand how tms has under 100k

[@bradencw]

not anymore lmao

[@pixl_nomad]

Cause this isn't an original idea. That's probably why.

[@cheese-j6j]

he copying hayden pedersen

[@teejay9373]

You guys should each get a theme colour for your wardrobe so I can tell you all apart lol What’s up from Toronto!

[@renebjk]

I freaking just thought of that what the fudge

[@abhi05cool]

Stephen seemed a bit disappointed after the results were announced but his photos were great nonetheless. Great job guys, you all are an inspiration!!

[@lihtan]

I've picked up a few cameras from thrift stores over the years. Many of them are not compatible with SDHC cards. In order to find a working card, you have to find an older SD card that's no larger than 2 gigs. They can be really hard to find. One camera I got working by using a 1 gig microSD card with an adapter. My most recent thrift store came was an A series Canon, that ended being free. I had a coupon for $10 off with a $25 purchase. I already had $15 worth of merchandise in my basket, when I saw the camera in the display case for $10. Needless to say I bought it! It's been a good camera. It has full manual shooting modes, and runs on easy to find rechargeable AAs.

[@valentimgomes8312]

I'm a digicam user and collector. I have more than 40 1&2gb micro and sd cards. It was hard enough now, in few years will be even harder.

[@busigrow]

Don't no why they are so underrated😥... They deserve million subs. ❤️

[@koton_bads]

I like these type of videos showing that gear isn't everything.

[@bobbygreen9106]

Seriously good work, guys. I've fallen victim to the "my gear is not good enough" mentality many times over the years and this just proves that mentality holds no merit! I'm definitely going to start doing a little more composite photos, looks fun.

[@toshizen809]

I like how Stephen is now on the more favourable side of things😂because on those past 2 challenges that you guys did he doesn't have a model to shoot with the disposable camera and on that drone shot challenge he has the least amazing drone. This video was so great guys I really love your content!!!

[@nolansilvius9636]

Hey! I suggested this Challenge!!!

[@TMSProductions]

Such a good idea!🔥

[@toftlife6839]

Liked it before watching! You guys are just so great!!!

[@Jaiswal_Anurag]

No point hurting yourself. You could have postponed it. But it really shows how serious you guys are about photography and your passion. Just amazing.

[@Grip_ItandrRip_It]

It's not truly art, until you suffer for it. Nice concept and cool execution. I actually took some of my favorite photos with cheap $5 cameras with film, because I'd take a cheap camera into places I wouldn't take a full size expensive camera. And now you understand putting your "blood, sweat and tears' into a project. Good stuff guys.

[@benjamin.kelley]

I felt that fall in my hands bro.

[@XricheeX]

Been going to some thriftstores recently waiting for a point and shoot analog camera to pop up in the display cabinet. You can defenitely find great items at thriftstores! Love the vid!

[@toftlife6839]

i just cant wait for that one video thats going to blow this channel up... first viral video and you guys are going to be huge! How can you not be entertained by this content?

[@m0um3n3]

13:34 Fs for Tommy! Hope he gets better

[@AdventuresInVideo]

16:15 I feel like I'm at a hair model convention 😄 You guys are awesome. This was a lot of fun.

[@ohlookachime]

I ran out of Hayden's photo battle vids and am so glad I found you guys!

[@shirakawanaoya]

What a wholesome video. Good chemistry and good idea to search for old thrift store cameras!

[@tango_sierra8608]

Such an under rated channel! Keep up the amazing videos and amazing production you guys do and great things will come! Seriously so impressed and pumped that i found this channel

[@rafaysami4554]

Do this same thing but for drones from a thrift store

[@chrizetti]

[@bryanmartin_]

I cannot believe it was already 3 years ago when I discovered this cool video! I don't know I am just longing for these photo battles so I checked your channel again to see what's up ;)

[@madyati]

Look at the clouds, omg ☁️☁️☁️

[@JyotssDays]

Great work guys!🙌🏾 My first camera was that Panasonic Lumix too, still works!📷

[@prettymclin]

These are so much fun! Please keep doing these challenges! I'm addicted!

[@sobhasandhu1592]

Mitchel and Tommy were soooo pumped about a 50 year-old out of date Nikon. :):)

[@sobhasandhu1592]

LOL

[@RGMGFitness]

Tommy, who owns the OneWheel I saw in prior videos? That skateboard isn't cutting it...Nice challenge guys...people forget there are some great deals in thrift stores. Always cameras to be found...

[@williamalexanderr]

Wow I feel really bad for tommy hope it’s a fast recovery & feels bad Mitchell btw tommy with the “ consistent theme “ killed me 😂😂👏👏

[@akshaygarg_19]

This is my new favorite channel. Can't believe I didn't discover them earlier.

[@floxfilm]

🔥🔥 always nice btw thanks for being inspired by my DIY Cable Cam in the last Video

[@upendramaurya3179]

your challenges are so creative and interesting !!

[@musicbysazid]

Is it just me or Tommy really looks like an younger version of Alex from The Chainsmokers?

[@Chkn2eat]

Awesome as alway!! Greetings from Switzerland ;)

[@husseinsafaa8590]

You deserve more followers, never stop creativity, your followers from Iraq 💙

[@sobhasandhu1592]

U guys r amazing at inspiring people with little money to start film making. U should make a video on how to create a dialed B-roll sequence with a £/$50 buget

[@sobhasandhu1592]

IKR

[@aj-tt9qh]

I LOVE THIS CHANNEL

[@Provolt]

You guys should do one of these with broll, would think its harder then photography at a low budget

[@madyati]

6:39 I think ND filter does the job here (just watching and commenting)

[@isaacpainter9828]

Great Video Idea

[@thechosenone9965]

1:31 Maybe the sd card slot is filled with dust. Try to spray the dust out and it should work. Or you can format the card.

[@iskandartaib]

I carried a series of small cameras like this ~10-15 years ago, mainly because I wanted to capture moments when I didn't have my big camera with me. I'd choose cameras that took AA cells, because I could use Eneloops and didn't have to worry about keeping the batteries charged. Back then, phone cameras sucked. So I have this big collection of photos I took all over the place, and it's fun to look through them. Recently, though - I tried submitting some to Shutterstock, and I couldn't get them to accept anything from one of these small cameras. Either it wasn't properly in focus, or there was too much noise, etc. I have gotten them to accept a few I've taken with my current phone, and the one I had before that (medium range Xiaomi phones). Incidentally, I also had trouble getting anything taken with my recently bought secondhand Canon Powershot G11 until I began shooting in RAW. Still learning. I guess I quit carrying the small camera when I finally got around to carrying a smart phone.

Damn Tommy! 😂😂😭

So cool I live in Osoyoos I’ve never found you tubers who live so close to me. Love the content keep it up!

[@SMILYO885]

13:18 The reason why the sd card didnt work is becauze it is a sdhc card and it doenst support sdhc so your limited with 2 gigabytes

[@meggem_2]

Great video!! Keep em coming

[@Bizarro1606]

Really love your contents guys... Great job as always... Keep it up... Best of luck...

[@pwood5733]

Look to be having great fun there boys

[@bFOURdwZEROlf]

[@theothertonydutch]

That Lumix is still a really good camera. I am not kidding, that thing will be enough to get you doing some good daylight stuff.

[@gabrielfuerte4092]

So good! you guys are really inspiring keep it up

[@joselazo6786]

this channel makes me remember my old friend i have a brother and a friend and we made a short movie or some story with an old crapy phone camera and we made a name CJF Production🤣

[@nyu3544]

[@harriscaber6378]

I love the content ❤. New subscriber from PH 🇵🇭. Take care guys esp Tommy 🤦‍♀. I wish my friends can take good photos like that so i can challenge them as well. Keep safe TMS!

[@BlueIndianPassport]

you guys make super fun content...i binge watched your videos and they are super fun...lots of loves and wishes from INDIA :D

[@trevise_07]

Nice bro🔥🔥

[@ikerclavero]

Why wa he running around the fence instead of moving it nearer to the corner?? 😂

[@asutoshbehera8012]

Keep making these videos.you guys are the best. I'm also 20 years old same as of you guys and watching from India.

[@m.rychtarik_2]

Wow, you guys are really good at that "duplicate yourself" effect. That's cool.

[@Lepewhi]

You guys look like brothers!!

[@Lepewhi]

I see two of you actually are.

[@kaitheguy6504]

10:16 the clouds look unreal

[@AsaFletcher]

Dude this is such a great video, I love the consistent content!

[@ashtonhoneycutt6852]

Watching Tommy crash made my heart drop and did anyone see that when he went in to the store to get batteries that he had a black penny board instead of a red one that he had

[@ibuzero8013]

I like this Challenge so much👌

[@von800]

I really love your videos😭❤❤

[@sazanrai6210]

Tommy had haircut.

[@williamkline6450]

Observation good.

[@noahberridge7400]

Love u guys. have shared the vids and love them u guys are great!!!!

[@Ari-xr2ye]

The SD card may not have worked because it was too high capacity! Lots of old cameras are only formatted to work with really small cards and file sizes.

[@nathanvrvrt]

Or because he needs to format his card before putting it in 😊

[@thomasscalesj4119]

im a new ubscriber and im now officially addicted to your videos 🤣🤣

[@Grip_ItandrRip_It]

You guys should reallly carry a power bank or 2, and a small assortment of cables and a charger for your batteries. I've also charged plenty of camera and light batteries off the car USB plug while I was driving.

[@oudjunk]

It looks good weather there. Miss the clear sky. Btw I like your challenge:) PS. Just finish watched poor you. Hope you are better already

[@kunals2157]

Great efforts guys

[@shauryasxn]

Waiting For It!! Great that its long!!!

[@SamHulse]

[@sugarmatty338]

[@zgpx]

Found your channel off the wish vid and guys make high quality content keep it up

[@Michifikation]

[@TMSProductions]

[@albertohuerta]

@18:10 That photo better be named "Hoop Dreams"

[@kaisperspective]

[@minyi8573]

Stephen got the camera that I used to have back then when I was in high school

[@JhadaiMcDonald]

Tommy took a hard hit damn

[@nickvonhindenburg8788]

this video took a crazy turn...

[@robertirving9556]

At 3:07 is that mitchel's car in the background?

[@wintrymix]

10:30 why didn't you just set up the camera closer to the edge of the fence? 😅

[@nathaniellara5131]

Love the vids! What film burn transitions do you guys use?
