Great video. Will this settings work for the Canon EOS M6 Mark II?

[@WildWheelzTV]

Thanks for the settings. If I record a video on the camera, how do I play it back to see how it looks and if you recorded everything I wanted? Yesterday I tried recording a video and there was no way, seemingly, to play it back on the camera itself to see how it looked. How do you do that?

[@JeepTJWheelin]

Great video, looking for some advice. I shoot real estate with the Canon M50 and a Laowa 9mm f/2.8 lens. The photo quality has been excellent. However, I haven't been too keen on the video results. Usually, I get requests from agents wanting cinematic drone with video footage. And I always shoot drone footage in 4K on the DJI Mini 2 since it's far better than 1080p on this particular drone. Can you either do a video or respond with how you would shoot a video with the equipment mentioned? Thanks in advance.

[@ultraprimez]

i have canon m50 and i use viltrox EOS - EF M2 speedbooster + canon 50mm f1.8 stm lens + 52mm CPL filter and i want to buy a cap for the filter. But what size should i go for ?

[@amandaisonline]

Can you tell me the settings you used for your setup in the video? I need to shoot a ton of content like that. Having trouble getting the settings right!

does this camera have touch to focus in manual mode ?

Sir you are just amazing amazing superb Please you must make video on premiere pro editing that how we can make video without lacking problem in premiere whats the pc requirements needed for HD videos and 4K videos separately And make video that how we can make videos that must be match with over music please sir i became you fan because you actually explains for beginners and noob persons as well :) Love from Pakistan

Do you use gimbal on your M50 during video capturing?

thank you! now im curious what lens and settings you use for your talking head :) .. im a huge fan. im an m50 user too :)

Just so you know, recently I’ve been using the Canon R5 for talking head. Older videos are M50 + 22mm 2.0

@@JorisHermans thank you man! you're a great creator!

[@olic8811]

Hi! Can you tell me which lens you used to shoot the footage in the forest? thx!

[@JorisHermans]

Hey! It’s the Canon EF-M 22mm f/2.0

[@photographyvlogsbyrajrb9769]

Informative video Sir 👍but I have a question, When I Shoot Videos With My M50, I Tap On The Subject And If I Move Forward Or Backward My Focus will Out, Why?

[@JorisHermans]

I think the M50 only has face tracking and not object/touch tracking.

[@techygeniuslc6446]

So basically everything manual iso should be 100-400 adjust if needed down or up between 1-400.. i have downloaded the cinema style profile so I can go into PP and add a luts.. and all I need is to worry about exposure I need to get that graph on my m50 when shoot thx ….

[@UberBman]

Joris, question: I have a Canon M50 EOS and I have been messing with it roughly off and on for close to a year. I've dabbled with filming action figures, but I have built a custom diorama as a backdrop/film set. I've invested in a slider with a rail system to shoot smooth footage. What lens do you recommend outside of the one that comes with the Canon M50? My intent is to film the figures for review purposes but do it in a cinematic look. Sounds goofy I know. I'm using Premier Pro and have learned basic color grading but I'm wanting to get the best image quality with my current gear. I am using the Cinestyle color profile with a PrismFx lens simulated anamorphic step-up adapter to replicate flares. Also, I'm mainly shooting this in my garage with a few small light sources plus the small flickering lights that the diorama has. So, it is a semi-controlled environment. I'm trying my best to grasp the basics and not shoot in automatic, despite the automatic pictures coming out amazing looking but when I switch to manual using the same settings as the auto the pictures come out different. I've been told it's an issue of the white balance. So, if you have any suggestions, I would greatly appreciate it.

[@JorisHermans]

Well, I guess a macro lens would be a good choice. And first find out at what focal length you shoot most of the time. But yeah, look for macro lenses. You could also buy an adapter so you can use Canon EF lenses on your EF-M camera.

[@didarulislam4373]

Hey Please tell me What size of ND filter will fit for Canon M50's 15mm-45mm kit Lanse?

[@JorisHermans]

That would be 49mm 💥

[@sadeqsegaraga8766]

Did you shoot that video with a gimbal?

[@jasonbascos]

Just curious if you really let go of your R5 or if you ended up keeping it? I just got mine and have been pretty happy with it, no overheating issues so far with my style of shooting videos and nice photos.

[@JorisHermans]

I’m on the list for a Sony A7s III... just waiting for it to come in so I can switch.

[@jasonbascos]

@@JorisHermans yeah, i shot Sony before the R5. Was on the fence between the two cameras. Both are great cameras, just depends on your needs. Can’t wait to see the videos you shoot with it! 🤙🏼
