Is the M6MKII the M50 KILLER?

[@TechGearTalk]

⭐️ Buy the Canon M50: geni.us/tgtm50body (affiliate) ⭐️ Buy the Canon M6MKII: geni.us/XHsya3 (affiliate) What's up everyone?!

[@YourMajesty143]

One of the reasons I went with the Canon m50 over Sony A6300 & other competitors was the flip-out screen and in-camera autofocus/image stabilization combo.

[@YourMajesty143]

One of the reasons I went with the Canon m50 over Sony A6300 & other competitors was the flip-out screen and in-camera autofocus/stabilization combo. Also, I was told none of the ef-m lenses can resolve the newer 32.5 megapixels --- even the sharpest prime lens of 32mm is unable to handle it --- so I'm not seeing the benefit for upgrading just yet. As for the higher choice of shots during quick-bursts, you can't use the silent shooting mode which is a serious limitation for wildlife or sports photography. Also, don't forget that both m50 and m6mkii have shutter actuations of 10,000. So just like car mileage, the higher the shutter is used, the more mileage you're putting on your camera & the more likely the camera is to malfunction with wear & tear. This is why I refuse to buy used cameras, especially if I'd prefer to reserve shutter counts for timelapse. The minimum 1/30s shutter speed isn't a big deal for me since I already own an external intervalometer for longer exposures. If you need to capture a quick moving object, then just increase your shutter speed. Simple. I know of people who rely on quick-bursts as a crutch to capture good photos bc they haven't been willing to try to learn the photography skill of timing your shot. It's a good skill to learn whether you're an amateur or pro ☺

Top notch content upload once again. I rented the a6400 after watching your review and though I love the af, the limited touch functionality is a deal breaker for me. My question is, will the 22mm with the viltrox speed booster be wide enough to vlog and will it bring out the superior image quality of the m6 mk2 sensor. I appreciate the work you put into doing quality work. Salut

[@TechGearTalk]

What's up brother! Thanks for all the support! The 22mm won't work with the speed booster for two reasons. 1. It's a mirrorless lens. 2. it's an aps-c lens. The speed booster only works with full frame dslr lenses. Hope that makes sense.

I started my KZbin channel in April because I needed to start something new and exciting during coronavirus. So far I uploaded about 14 videos all done by iPhone.

Hi. At 15:30 you couple the 100mm 2.8L macro with the M6 MKII. Is it too big a lens for that body? It worries me that these two together might be too cumbersome to operate while shooting frogs and snakes with external flashes. Perhaps a DSLR is a better choice? Thanks. Juan

One question would my lenses i use for my 35MM canon fit on my new M6 mark ii if i get that special attachment for it to fit other lenses.

[@TechGearTalk]

SO GLAD YOU LOVE IT!!! If you got an EF/EF-S to EF-M adapter they should "fit". I'm not sure what functionality you'll have (Auto focus, etc.).

I bought the sigma 16mm 1.4 lens for my canon 250D it didn’t size it I’ve used the whole day searching for the adapter that can let me use it 😢all to non avail, so I decide to sell it and get canon m50 because the sigma lens is EF-M lens. I’m so confused 😢I don’t know what to do please I need a solution

[@TechGearTalk]

There is no adapter from ef-m to EF because the lens is designed to be closer to the sensor (you can adapt lenses from EF to EF-M because the adapter acts as a spacer). See if this video helps: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qqewkKVsh9dkaLc

[@TiffanieMichelle]

Hey there! Maybe a low light video both inside under “house lights” at night and perhaps outside at sunset until the image is lost. Detailing the settings as the lighting changes 👍🏻

[@TechGearTalk]

Got it. Ok, so to be totally transparent, I would do my best to never shoot under those conditions. I would always add a source of light (even if it's a tiny LED) because no camera with a kit lens will give you good results. Even with a fast lens (which is what you need for that wide aperture) you'll want a source of light. I mean, I would even go as far as using my iphone flashlight if I needed to to add light. Check out this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/p2PLpGt4hLmLmJY Since it looks like you're getting serious and growing a channel, is there any chance you could invest is a small light? That will make your life so much easier. If not, you'll want to position yourself next to some outdoor light. The Kit lens is going to be a major hurdle, especially if you can't get a light source. I hope this response makes sense.

I have the M50 but if I want better video quality, this sounds like a good upgrade? Especially with the no crop 4k. Even the EOS R has a crop and that bothers me

[@TechGearTalk]

Yup, if you're shooting 4k, the m6ii is much better than the M50. the eos r crop makes it a tighter angle of view than the m6mkii... nuts.

[@mrshamoozoo]

@@TechGearTalk hmm that's interesting. Between the eos r and the m6mkii, which would you choose for 4k use?

[@TechGearTalk]

Well, it's a totally different budget. The EOS R with RF lenses is easily 3-4 times the price of the M6. So if budget was an issue, M6II with the sigma ef--m lenses or the canon 32 f/1.4 and 22 f/2 (but of course start with the kit lens and the rest will depend on what you shoot: kzbin.info/www/bejne/sF7bXpdjgJ59nNk ) does that make sense?

[@okaro6595]

Here the difference is much larger, M50 kit is 520 € and M6 II is about 1250 € (with the 15-45 lens and EVF). I bought M50 last march for 570 € including the body case and the brown strap. I love it with the exception that the clock is almost 5 seconds a day too fast (according to Canon within the specs)

[@TechGearTalk]

WHOA... that's a really big difference... Appreciate you sharing.

[@TechnikMeister2]

Nice review. Unfortunately in Australia, Canon tend to go for the gouge on pricing with new models: The Canon M50 with kit lens can be had anywhere here, including Amazon for $750. Unfortunately, if you add the EVF to the M6Mk2, it lists at $1460. The Nikon Z50 with lens is $1450 and the Sony a6400 with lens is $1350. So right now and considering the lack of integrated EVF and outrageous pricing, the Canon is not competitive. If Canon put a proper EVF in and dropped the price to $1200, it starts to be competitive.

[@TechGearTalk]

Thank you and appreciate all the info! I'm always shocked at the price differences.

[@AlexCruzHaha]

Always love getting more information from your videos, so awesome. My canon m50 has a loose mic jack issue and repairing it could cost around 200 so I am thinking about upgrading instead, but I really like the flip out screen. I don't know whether to buy another m50, fix the current one, or upgrade to the m6 mark ii haha. What do you think?

I don't want to overstate it. I never ever pixel peep my images at 400% to see the difference so it's not truly a major difference for me.

Before I watched the video I looked up the price of the M6 and saw that it’s nearly double the price of the M50 so... convince me how a camera that’s double the price is killing the M50

[@TechGearTalk]

Hi Troy. My goal is not to convince you that one camera is right for you over another. I also accept that things are not the same for everyone. To some, when you look at body, lenses, batteries, SD cards, support, lighting, gimbal, slider, etc. the $270 price difference is not a deal breaker. That goes up to $470 if you have to pay for the EVF. Finally, in different countries, the prices are different. Someone just told me today that where they live the M6MKII is 2.5x the price. Thanks for contributing to the community.

[@IamTROY15]

Tech Gear Talk I get what you’re saying. So In different regions the price difference isn’t as drastic, but where I’m at the M6 Is double the price of the M50 so it feels unfair to compare the 2 just when there’s such an enormous price difference. Personally I shoot on the M50 so I will admit that I’m probably a little biased, but for the price there aren’t too many cameras that compare. I personally think that it is one of the best most consumer friendly mirrorless cameras for that price. But that’s just me. I do appreciate the informative nature of all your videos tho so please keep coming with good content.

I would prefer the M50 as I won't be using all the options on a M6 mark 2 and I like a view finder, my question is simple does the EF-M lens work better on the M50 or is the no difference if you use the speed booster adapter with EF-S lens in quality of the picture?

I'm also a camera newbie and have been using my s9+ for videos. I want to know if the M6 is worth the extra $400 or more. Thanks!

[@TechGearTalk]

Hi Kasey. If you plan on shooting in 1080p, the M50 is plenty good. If you want 4K, then the M6mkii is the way to go. I would invest in lenses over a body if I had to choose. Here are some good options: kzbin.info/www/bejne/q4C1hWSam8qGZq8 I hope this helps. Thank you for subscribing and supporting the channel!

[@2musiclover534]

So for live streaming, the M6ii allows HDMI out, CLEAN SIGNAL, and AUTOFOCUS? Both 1080p and 4K? Just confirming. That may be the one I need then. Was looking at the M50 but not having a clean signal via HDMI was a no go though there are workarounds using USB and other software. Thanks.

[@TechGearTalk]

That is correct. The M6MKII is what you want if you plan on using it for streaming. It will make your life SO MUCH easier.

[@2musiclover534]

@@TechGearTalkThanks a million for your reply. Just subscribed. All I want is to stream 1080p with with the Sigma 16mm f1.4. Which Canon would be the lowest cost that I can get away with via clean HDMI? Would it be the M6MKII? The crazy thing is that I'm also considering the Sony 20 f1.8 with an Alpha body but that's a whole different price range. (I am starting to stream hours teaching and will do so for many years to come as I work for a non-profit organization and think I want to set up a very relaxed and pleasant environment for the viewer.) Thanks again for you excellent videos. Clear, direct, well informed, superb production qualities etc.

[@TechGearTalk]

You're very welcome - glad I'm able to help. If you really want to go with a Sony, you could always go with this body: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pZrQZ6lor6mEg5I (you could also get the same 16mm sigma lens for Sony) If you want a Canon, the M6MKII is the way to go. By the way, before you buy a lens, here are my thoughts on first lens: kzbin.info/www/bejne/sF7bXpdjgJ59nNk

I have the Canon M50 and love it! I will be definitely be considering the M6MK2 when it comes time to upgrade.

[@TechGearTalk]

[@justsomesaltyboi8716]

dude all these features for this camera are great and all, but it's much more expensive than the m50, and it's too much for a beginner to learn with when they are trying to get into the hobby/profession. it's discouraging to the max with all these features that this camera does over the budget m50.... 4k takes up too much data, most computers in homes on average don't run editing for 4k very well due to the high data rate and the high demand in specs for the cpu's in average homes, some people that are interested into photography aren't going to jump right into the bandwagon of 4k because they are trying to learn the ins and outs of the art, and most people can't afford such a high-end piece and would feel like it's an obligation to the craft due to the high cost. the kit lens with a viewfinder costing over 1k for a camera that does all the stuff that the m50 (in 1080p, for stills) does when it has a kit lens, viewfinder, and other appliances from amazon that are kits such as: mini-tripod, small-tripod, 3 filters (CPL, UV, FLO), extra batteries, charger, wrist strap, carrying case, sd card, sd card reader, flash attachment, microfiber cloth, air duster, and pen brush for $699 and that INCLUDES the camera and the kit lens! I'm not mad or upset, but I am just a little perplexed at the cost of what you are getting. with another 400 or 500 bucks. not worth it imho

Hello, I currently have a canon 80d which is too heavy for hiking. I am about to go on the hiking trip of a lifetime and need a smaller camera. I will be doing mostly landscape photos with some sweeping short videos. I build calendars off of them and need to produce mostly small-medium size photos and rarely 10x12 photos. I also occasionally do astrophotography. I am torn because of price. I love sharp* images BUT I love the articulating screen of the M50. My question is with a good lens, can both produce large nice landscape photos(that large)? and which lenses would you recommend(kit, canon, vs sigma)? I shoot in RAW and would like to take only one or 2 good lenses with me as weight is a big factor on long hikes. I appreciate your videos and recommendations! Thanks. Sheri

[@arthursamaul341]

Hi do you think m50 mkII is coming up soon thanks

[@TechGearTalk]

It should come out this year, but I don't know when.

[@jettschenker]

You can beat the 4K crap on an M50 with a Laiwa 9mm no distortion kens

[@horst-saiger]

Thanks for the videos, really helps a me. What’s your recommendation for a all-day affordable EF lens (incl. vlogging & livestream) - with speedbooster on a M6 it should be brilliant for every situation even 4K. Or I’m wrong?

[@TechGearTalk]

Glad you like the video. Quick question, why do you want an EF lens with a speedbooster rather than a EF-M lens? There are great options, but they will make your setup larger. Check out these lenses for EF-M: kzbin.info/www/bejne/q4C1hWSam8qGZq8 and some great EF lenses: kzbin.info/www/bejne/i4azop2GqJp8rZo (I use the sigma 18-35 the most) Hope this helps and welcome to the channel!

[@horst-saiger]

Tech Gear Talk I thought with the speed booster the lenses get even better!? Almost full frame with the speed booster and more light as well... if I got it right it makes from f2.8 a 2.0 ... or something like that? Am I wrong?

[@TechGearTalk]

You are not wrong, they do widen the angle of view and the amount of light, but you pay for it in terms of size/weight/slight decrease in image quality. So the question is, would you rather have the sigma f/1.4 with a much smaller setup (and a wider aperture), or the full-frame lens at a higher cost. What will you be shooting? That sigma 18-35 or a 24-70 f/2.8 are great options for sure. Hope this discussion is helpful.

[@horst-saiger]

Tech Gear Talk cheers, I guess I go with the smaller setup. Keep on going with your videos, great content and sounds honest as well! Regards from Liechtenstein 🇱🇮

im thinking of getting my first camera, the m50 costs 600$ with kit lens, do you think its still a good deal right now? im also looking at the fujifilm x-a7 which costs 700$ w/ kit lens. im currently more inclined towards the fuji.

[@TechGearTalk]

Both are great cameras Tristan. I really like the X-A7 as well. Fuji is definitely underrated. The M50 is probably easier to learn on (but I wouldn't shoot 4k on it)

[@trstanj]

@@TechGearTalk read some articles that a successor to the m50 would be on its way this year since the camera is nearing its 2 and a half years which is the usual timeline for canon to release an update. since im not yet in a rush and im satisfied with my pixel 3a camera, i guess ill wait til it launches just for future proofing..

Question: I am thinking of buying 1 M6 MKII and 2 M50's for vlogging...will the video from each camera look similar once all the different views are edited together? As I jump from different cameras during the production will video footage be noticeably different?? If so, I imagine I should stick with the same camera models

[@TechGearTalk]

Hi Mark - good question. First question to you, why three different cameras? If you shoot in the same picture style with all three (ex. EOS Standard) it will look similar enough to where you won't notice - but back to the original, why three different cameras?

Hey man, how is the quality of 4K on the M6 MKII when it’s downscaled to 1080p? As I’ve heard that the native 4K isn’t as crisp as some other camera models that offer it.

[@TechGearTalk]

When downscaled to 1080p the quality is amazing. People saying that it's not "as crisp" as other cameras (which use full sensor readout) is "technically" true. However, It's extremely and I value color and ease of use over the slightly less crisp footage. Hope that makes sense.
