Episode 19 of the Book Lovers Series | Canon XA50 Footage: Bookstore Vlog - Lost City Books in Washington DC | I've come to realize that the Canon XA50 is the perfect DOCUMENTARY CAMERA for me. It has everything a SOLO FILMMAKER needs to make documentaries as a one-person crew. Here's some Canon XA50 footage shot with the XA50 of LOST CITY BOOKS in Washington, DC. Below are the reasons why I'm considering the Canon XA50 over a DSLR camera for documentary filmmaking.

CAMERA USED FOR THIS VIDEO:
Canon XA50: amzn.to/30fGunP
WHAT I LOVE ABOUT THE CANON XA50:
- Its small, compact size - very portable.
- Shoots 4K up to 30 FPS.
- All in one camera, the only thing you may need is a nice external mic hooking up to the XLR input, if you need pro audio. Otherwise, the onboard mic is pretty good for everyday filming non-pro events.
- Built-in ND filter (1/4, 1/16. 1/64)
- Built-in optical and electronic IS.
- Dual-pixel auto-focus.
- 2 XLR audio inputs (pro-audio)
- Great in low light settings (which surprises me).
- 15x zoom at 4K and 30x zoom at 1080p.
- Sweet bokeh / shallow depth-of-field (especially when you use the zoom): see 2:41.
- On-boar audio is decent for the time when you don't use the XLR inputs.
- Perfect for me as a run & gun documentary filmmaker - within budget.
WISH LIST:
- Image quality is nice but not as cinematic as I would like. But since it's for run & gun documentaries, this wish is not as urgent. Though I still wish.
- More physical buttons for often-used features, such as changing IRIS, GAIN, etc., would be perfect.
