Thanks! So the exposure compensation is only needed if you want it. It's not something you have to do. It's one of those manual settings you use if you want to override what the camera is doing. You can just leave everything on Auto and the camera does great! Autofocus is sick. Let me know if anything else comes up.

love this camera. great range of lenses and lightweight for travelling as a kit. would be great to see some samples images and as a contrast to other options in the price/feature-function range. EF-M 22 lens is glorious. and the adaptor opens up the entire EF/EF-S range. work-arounds required for adding a microphone just like the M5 needed one for tripods if you want the flip screen in play.
@TechGearTalk6 жыл бұрын
I completely agree Peter, the size along with the many lens choices make this a formidable contender. I have not had a chance to use the EF-M 22 yet but am looking forward to it. You bring up an excellent point about the EF-M to EF/EF-S adapter. I really should have included that as an option. I'm not sure how many users would actually buy EF/EF-S lenses specifically for this camera but some will. And furthermore, if you already have those lenses, it would be important to know that they can use them. Love the mic input, opens up so many doors. Thank you so much for the insightful comment. Did you see the G7 X Mark II review? I also have one coming up in a few days for the SL2
@andanotherthing66876 жыл бұрын
good evening. the 22mm is a permanent feature on mine. the only fast/native EF-M option. the M5/M6 makes a perfect pairing with a FF canon DSLR so the ability to buy EF/EF-S lenses and use anywhere is a huge win. lots of great options and a maximal return on investment. works for me ;-) . an extension plate for the mic is a solid tip also. I hadn't and will look out for it over the next day or so. Ill keep an eye out for the SL2. ( I went M6 rather than GX7 due to the lens and mic options - very curious to see how you find them in comparison as a vlogging camera of choice. merry Christmas to you and yours.

I don't own it yet but I'm trying to decide between the M6 and the 6D MKII. I take a lot of indoor video and currently have an 80D but I need something with better low light performance. Thus, thinking of going full frame OR putting a Samyang 12 mm f2 on the M6. Really for me it's a question of smaller size or better low light performance (with the right high speed lens).
@TechGearTalk6 жыл бұрын
That makes sense. I'd still want a fast lens, regardless of the sensor size, but it sounds like you have that covered. What type of videos are you shooting? Are you able to easily help with additional lighting or are you always having to shoot with what's available?
@whistlerrealestate16 жыл бұрын
I'm a realtor and mainly shoot interiors alone so portability and speed is important as well. Starting to lean towards the M6 with the Rokinon 12 mm f2 on a Zhiyun Crane. Especially since the Rokinon disables the camera's stabilization when attached. Thoughts?...
@TechGearTalk6 жыл бұрын
I would get the Zhiyun Crane regardless of the lens. I just looked at your page, for what you're doing, you need the footage to look professional. No level of in-body or lens image stabilization is going to give you what a dedicated 3-axis gimbal will do. It will immediately pay for itself and the production value is totally worth it.

I kind of ignored this camera for a while but then canon announced the m6 ii which got me interested. Then I realized the old m6 is not only lighter and thinner, it's also SIGNIFICANTLY cheaper. $350 on ebay right now versus $850. You can buy two of them and even a pancake lens to boot. And you even get 24p, which canon has graciously decided to kill off on all their new cameras.

@spitperson696 жыл бұрын
The most popular option for picture profiles on the M6 (or any canon camera) is going to be Cinestyle. It's a faux-LOG profile and it's free. That means it's going to be as flat as the camera can possibly go, but it's still not going to capture as much dynamic range as LOG because these cameras simply aren't capable of it. It works really well and gets 70-80% of the results that LOG does, but it does introduce some extra noise. Travel Feels goes into this in one of his most recent videos, but what a lot of people using these cameras do is adjust the stock "Neutral" profile to have the absolute lowest contrast you can get. Again it gets pretty much all the dynamic range the camera is capable of - this time not quite as much as Cinestyle, but it also tends to be sharper and doesn't have the problem with noise. Personally, that's the route I'd take with the M6 (and plan to when I eventually buy one) because it doesn't have a very high bitrate. That means if you use a faux-LOG profile like Cinestyle, the colors might not be accurate and you'll get banding issues. Those can be avoided with a customized Neutral profile. I'm going to start doing a lot more tips/tricks videos for Canon cameras on my channel soon so maybe check it out! Or don't. This wasn't meant to be an ad, just trying to help. PS If you're trying to get the absolute most dynamic range, the best thing to do is get a camera that's compatible with Magic Lantern (specifically, versions of it that have a RAW video function). Since you have an M6, I'd recommend investing in the original EOS M. You lose some features (articulating screen, autofocus) but it's only $200 on eBay, so you can use it solely for those HDR shots, then use your M6 for everything else. It's also super helpful to have a B Cam. DSLR Video Shooter does an awesome demonstration of how amazing RAW video looks on the EOS M and how you can get an entire B Cam setup with a lens and cage for less than $300.

@markpbowen6 жыл бұрын
Thanks for the reply, its nice to see someone monitoring the comments. I maybe new on a lot of camera tech, however nothing beats good old fashioned two way communication and feedback, so thanks again. I was an original crowd funder backer and it took ages to receive the product, I had almost given up hope. The companies communication was non existent. I think in the end they realised this and in Europe anyway they partnered with a German company to take over the logistics and communications. I am based in the UK. The Snoppa M1 itself I didn't get at first, you do need to spend time playing with it and testing the settings. To be honest it was in my draw for a few months as I wasn't sure how to use it. However in the past few months I am doing more video on facebook mainly for promoting myself and a local event I hold. I realised I want to expand this into other business interests so I bought the Canon M and started playing with that too. I will use the Canon until I can upgrade to a newer model for indoor videos to youtube or for landing page content etc. However now I have the Snoppa M1 back out and I am getting used to it I will be using that for on the fly vlogs and possibly some b roll footage as the image stabilisation is great, it means if I don't have my camera and I want to shoot I can. I have managed to get the set up so I can use a lav mic with it and I love that you can set it on lock and walk around the camera and shoot yourself with the main rear camera on the iphone. Alright you can't monitor yourself but you get a better video and by locking the tracking you should know where to stand. It really is a great piece of kit and the youtube videos on how to use it properly from the company are good. Its a great size if a little heavy, but I like that I know I am holding it. It can go in your pocket or a bag and be ready to go in seconds. It's so flexible with vertical and horizontal shooting and you can turn it upside down for low shots. It comes with its own app but will work without it. What can be a pain is that I have to remove the phone cover before using but happy to do that to get a good stable shot and now I can get the sound ok, with an external mic it give me a few more things I can do with it. If you get the chance to try one, do so. It has its issues but is surprising if you are creative and will work for me as I don't always take a camera with me as I do a number of jobs. I should maybe do a review on my channel, I am so new I only have a test video on there (yes I am that new). I like to think its not terrible for a first video but I know I can improve a lot. I look forward to watching more of you videos, take care and thanks again.

Hi there... Greetings from Indonesia. Really love your video, very informative. Pls advise, as I couldn't decide which one to choose: 18-150mm or 55-200mm? I already have 18-55 kit lens and 22mm fixed lens. Am looking for a telephoto lens, actually. So 55-200 would suit me best. Yet, 18-150 is really attractive as it can serve as all-rounder lens: wide and zoom at the same time. So, pls give me some advices here. Thanks... !
@TechGearTalk5 жыл бұрын
Greetings and thank you for the kind words. Look at it this way. Will the difference between 150mm and 200mm make enough of a difference for you shoot, over the ability to have one lens that covers all the way from 18-150? Only you know how you shoot. If you need that extra telephoto, then that is your answer. If you value versatility over having to change lenses, then 18-150mm. If you're going to carry multiple lenses, then maybe the 55-200 works because it will keep the 18-55 much smaller and lighter.

Great review. More camera than anyone in the comments could ask for. If you’re looking for a better lens selection, you’re kidding yourself; and you need more primes at different focal length, your shouldn’t consider this...or get the adapter. This is a solid camera for those who know how to use it. Any shortcomings you feel? Then get another camera. The M6 would be a welcome addition to anyone’s bag. Hell, I’d use it for wedding candid shots and paid gigs; street; vlog and an everyday camera.

You deserve a lot more subscribers! This video is super helpful. I think this camera will be perfect for me. I need a compact camera that can shoot b-roll and for in car video and vlog style videos. Was looking at Sony a6xxx series but as we shoot so many car events and are outdoors a lot in the summer the overheating issues really turned me off. As well as the lack of mic input on the cheaper models and the expensive lenses.
@TechGearTalk6 жыл бұрын
Hi Donovan, thanks for watching. I hope that I'm creating content that is valuable and subscribers will come if that is the case. I super appreciate the comment! The M6 is so underrated, I really love it. It offers so much in such a small package. I'm actually testing out the Sony a6500 right now. I should have that video up within a week and I'll cover as much as possible. I believe most of the overheating issues had to do with shooting 4K video for prolonged periods of time in warmer environments. But, that's obviously not "great". Lack of mic input for me is an immediate NO if I'm going to use it for video, unless of course it is only used for b-roll. But as you mentioned, you'll be doing vlogging as well so I wouldn't buy a new camera without one (sounds like you got that covered already). Canon len options are endless and that's super hard to compete with for any other manufacturer. If you end up buying this camera, I would super appreciate if you would use the links in the description (if possible). Which mic do you plan on using?

Great review ! I purchased this camera today and super exited to start using it. One question I have that you don’t go over or maybe you did but I missed it is how long can you record before it stops on you? I know some cameras can only record for like 30min at a time, does this one have a limit ???
@TechGearTalk6 жыл бұрын
Hi Vanessa, thank you for the compliment. The M6, is such a great camera! Are you going to be doing more makeup videos? As far as recording time, that is correct, you're limited to 29.5 minutes on the M6. That is true for all cameras that are NOT camcorders or cinema cameras. It has to do with the way cameras are taxed in parts of the world. Cinema and camcorders are taxed at a higher rate so camera manufacturers put this arbitrary limit (anything that can record for longer than 29.5 minutes is considered a cinema camera or a camcorder). Not sure who came up with that or how it makes any kind of sense. It's not a big deal for you. Since you'll have the screen facing you, when you see it climb up there in minutes, just STOP/START and keep going. Let me know if you have any questions.

Hi Christine, thank you for watching and that's a great question. This is a mirrorless camera, so you're going to get rid of the noise that the mirror makes when it moves out of the way (watch this video to learn more: kzbin.info/www/bejne/i2a8gmN-aK56hJI ) As far as low light, it's going to do fine because I'm assuming the performer is actually well lighted. Make sure you have an understanding of shutterspeed/aperture/iso (here is some help: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hqaoZ6p3eduhd7s ; you'll need this for ANY camera) After you watch those two videos, let me know if you have any questions in the comment section.

+Tech Gear Talk I would use it for hiking, landscapes and wildflower mostly. The body price came down and I would get the ef-m 11-22. People say it's good for landscapes. I'm not a video guy. I like the g1xm3 for it's weather resistance but I haven't tried it. I like that it's standard zoom can macro focus to 10cm. I don't see any aps-c standard zoom that can focus to 10cm.
@TechGearTalk6 жыл бұрын
It would be a great camera to take hiking because it's so compact. the 11-22 is a really nice lens. The G1 X MK III is also nice but it doesn't have interchangeable lenses so you won't be able to go as wide as the 11-22 (comes with a 24-72). The minimum focus distance is going to be a function of the lens and not the body/sensor. So for the M6 each lens would have a different minimum focus distance. Here is one that has a minimum focus of 9.3cm amzn.to/2Cl9uNC

I was actually looking at the M6 because I had a very good experience with the M3. But I had some serious concerns about the M6, the first being the kit lens was all plastic including the mount as compared to the one that came with the M3, which I thought was a better lens. Also, the M series had been around for about five years and there were not many lenses which made me think Canon didn't really have its heart into mirrorless. Finally, I stumbled upon the Lumix G85 which was LESS expensive than the M6 with a feature set I could not believe and a very wide selection of professional lenses. I am/was a Canon person. Notwithstanding the autofocus which is better on the M6, the M6 is a terrible bang for the buck. I really wanted to like it but could not justify it in comparison to the G85.

Hello Tech Gear Talk. I'm glad that i found this video. Thank you for detail and all of information that you have made in this video. I'm plan to buy eos m6 to become my second camera. I have some question. Directly to the 5 axis digital in body stabilisation, is it good enough for the video result? and is it effective when we use it for recorded with handheld mode? or its depend on our lens's IS system? Thank you so much. Greeting from Indonesia
@TechGearTalk6 жыл бұрын
The more IS you have the better. Can it be used handheld, yes of course. And the results are definitely more than usable. Now, it's not going to look like you're on a tripod or using a 3 axis gimbal, but it will definitely look better than any camera without it. I don't mind some camera movement in the right situation, so it really depends on how you plan on using it. If you're really going to be walking around a lot and pointing the camera in different directions, use a 3 axis gimbal. Otherwise, if it's pointing at you and you're walking around, it will be good enough.

@TechGearTalk5 жыл бұрын
The G7XM2 is so small and light. You can pretty much take it with you anywhere and never even think about it. This is especially true because the lens retracts. The M6 is bigger and heavier for sure (even though it's relatively small). It will allow you to use an external microphone if you want (kzbin.info/www/bejne/nnabZYV5r86crJo). That will give you better audio, especially in challenging conditions, but will make the setup even bigger. This is another excellent option to replace the M6 kzbin.info/www/bejne/oqa8h2Oaid2ijac (it has one very important feature both other cameras are missing - remote control) Hope this helps, let me know if you have any questions.
