TCSTV's Best and Worst Camera Gear of 2016

[@patdinco]

Can't believe it's been a year already

[@EDHBlvd]

You guys are killing it. You are the best photography channel on KZbin. Cheers!

[@julianbransky7168]

Of the many great videos you guys make, I love the "Best and Worst" the most. Shame they only come once a year... Very charismatic duo you are, have a great Christmas and New Year.

[@Nulrom]

I am not the 30 minutes video kind of guy but I enjoyed every one of this video. Thank you guys, great job.

[@funfunfun536]

I've been waiting for a looooong year to see how Jordan (the younger version of Bill Murray) is getting drunk! :) Love it!

[@TheRealMikeEdwards]

I seriously look forward to this video, every year! TCST is worthy of so much more subscribers!

[@TheCameraStoreTV]

Thanks for watching! Spread the word! Jordan @ TCSTV

[@Ranblv]

You forgot one award. You were definitely the best photography channel of 2016 with HM to tony Northrup.

[@bluecomposite]

TN? Hahahaha Aloha.

[@AMGmeister]

Worst channel award - Jared Polin!!

[@notorioushsg1]

gave up on that dude a long time ago.... those raw talk episodes were waaaay too long. I actually like him but the tangents he goes on.....

[@maxfader2449]

The no BS award goes to the angry photographer

[@CALISUPERSPORT]

worst channel goes to whatever channel Kai from Digital Rev is on.

[@dlittlester]

Thanks for another year, guys. I watch every episode.

[@CaptainVapes]

YOU GUYS ARE GREAT, I MEAN YOUR SO POSITIVE AND HAPPY AND ITS JUST GREAT TO SEE A COUPLE OF POSITIVE HAPPY PEOPLE WHO HAVE GREAT POSITIVITY AND MAKE ME FEEL HAPPY TO WATCH, WISH THE WORLD WAS FULL OF PEOPLE LIKE U GUYS AS IT WOULD BE A MUCH NICER PLACE

[@estebanisswimming]

Best episode of 2016!! Thanks so much for all your videos. Loved them all!

[@tomason33]

Appreciate the insights as well as the relaxed and relatable banter. Great product choices and witty delivery. A clever, useful, and downright entertaining dynamic here. Keep up the great work, guys!

[@dr.sommer5069]

You canadians are crazy guys. Drinking beer out of a little glass of schnapps..... Not even our austrian girls do that ;-))

[@paul-mw6pc]

Lord Helmchen lol I agree, get 2 bottles and drink from that. no clue what these guys are doing

[@JacksonPearson1997]

They wouldn't normally drink like this... well i hope not haha I'm assuming they're trying to avoid getting actually drunk before the video ends.

[@themattenthehat]

That stuff they're bragging about drinking a case of isn't beer, its piss-water. Not all of us Americans drink that shit, there's real beer here too!

[@CALISUPERSPORT]

I think they had a bad experience with that pitcher of Old Fashioned last year and decided to play it safer this time, lol

[@driverv86]

Or, because some people live really close, they do it every week. Me. I do that.

[@motorcycle-paradise]

Best video of 2016. Thanks guys. Merry Christmas.

[@tomedwards81]

Great episode guys. Jordan definitely looking a little under the weather from the grog! I've watched your channel grow over the last couple years and it's thoroughly deserved. You're by far the best photography channel on KZbin. Any plans to review drones next year?

[@sadie9572]

1 year is fast, thank you for all the good works !!!!

[@JuliaCabanPL]

Please link all the stuff! :)

[@dennisolof9994]

A better Title would be TCSTV Rewind 2016 - Best and worst Camera Gear After I started watching this channel I have learned so much about cameras, and that gear is a important part. You provide so much information it make it easy for us users to decide what camera to buy. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year TCSTV.

[@mcrazza]

Has it been a year?! Great work again by everyone at TCSTV in 2016. Thank you for doing an excellent job. You guys are consistently the best photography channel on KZbin hands down (sorry DRTV). I look forward to more in 2017.

[@yusui2405]

Really love to see you guys together in such a casual show. You guys are great, would love to see move clips from your guys next year! Best of luck from Japan.

[@pkarowic]

This is my 2nd year of watching your year end of the best and worst camera's. You guy's put on a great show and provide good information on your products. You state the good, the bad and the ugly which is one of the reason I like it.. A few years back you influenced me on your review of the GX-7 by Panasonic that I went out and bought one as well as many lenses since. Thanks for the year end reviews again and looking very much to watching your content in 2017, cheers, PNK

[@lougoetzmann]

I always get crazy excited when I see this in my subscription feed. Great as always guys!

[@kazzakazza6377]

Thank you Chris & Jordan for all you do. Merry Christmas!

[@nz769r]

You guys are the best! When you do a review you are honest and balanced in your assessments. On top of that -- you are both entertaining! Great work! I hope to see more of these year end reviews.... the channel just gets better and better.

[@FrankBarz]

I've been waiting all year for this!!! Aha great job fellas. Cheers!

[@victoroliveira3256]

Frank Barraza indeed

[@sampeitz4407]

was looking forward to this all month *_* keep it up guys! cheers from Germany

[@halromi73]

I must say this was the most fun product review I've ever seen. Cracked up laughing all that time, but also learnt heaps about last years cameras and lenses. Keep it up guys. Awesome.

[@genegieb9153]

I love these annual best and worst videos, it definitely helps narrow down with the research and choice of purchase.

[@DetroitVideoDiaries]

Hey Guys happy holidays. I look forward to your reviews in 2017 and I appreciate all the work/fun you guys do to put on this show, Thanks for everything

[@nmr3850]

Nothing beats watching two guys chilling, talking and getting drunk.

[@ErebosGR]

For next time, please consider showing the name of the lens/camera at the bottom of the screen for the whole length of each segment, so non-native English speaking viewers don't have to keep rewinding to catch the name.

[@maneshmalla588]

I was waiting so much for this. thanks so much for your efforts in 2016 Chris and Jordan

[@WekaDigitalMediaNZ]

Enjoy watching your videos, this one was funny to watch. Maybe next year drop a tab of acid at the beginning but don't tell us till the end. :) Merry Xmas from NZ

[@TheCameraStoreTV]

We'll keep that suggestion in mind for next year... Jordan @ TCSTV

[@techshaman]

Seconding this! I would love to see that-new comedy channel! :D

[@elgigante2684]

awesome review by you chris and jordan you guys have taken over every camera review channel on youtube .. you are the best guys , i always look forward to all your reviews , keep it going. Merry christmas and Happy new years guys ...

[@phanter344]

Thanks for another great year of videos. Looking forward to what you're going to bring us next year.

[@stilldasayme]

Thanks for the videos ! It's always fun watching you guys.

[@nelsonpun]

I was so happy thinking there was an x1d video by you guys. Hope to see it soon!

[@Ouimzie123]

As usual a great video. Good canadian beer, cameras, great video I couldn't ask for more. Thanks guys you are the best and happy 2017. And the Trois-Pistoles is my favorite too.

[@Mr_Kosta_]

I love this end of the year recap, it so funny watching these two interact as they drink. That Canadian accent is too funny. Happy Holidays to you all.

[@james123202]

Thanks for another great year of camera reviews & some fun :) Excellent

[@HairMentorsEducation]

Brilliant as always! Always my favorite episode of the year.

[@bobell69]

Great video and a great year for the Camera Store. Looking forward to your videos for 2017!

[@bellacavachon7510]

Just seeing this video for the first time today. What a blast! Fantastic job guys... looking forward to the 2017 version in the next couple of weeks ... and seeing how (well) the Canon 6d2 does!

[@juhanyman1802]

Great episode! You guys are really hilarious to watch, and yet very informative. Keep up the good work. Always go through all the stuff you guys upload. :)

[@pat00139]

Great video, as always, guys. I really enjoy these year-end wrap-ups and I look forward to what 2017 has to offer!

[@philg6757]

Thanks guys,all the best for Xmas and New Year. Look forward to seeing you next year.

[@pavelbtn]

Brilliant - such a simple video, and yet so authentic and funny. Go go go, Chris & Jordan!

[@shang-hsienyang1284]

The highly anticipated list! Finally!

[@armaniusmaximus]

Great video guys! Love the Canadian accent! LOL! Thanks for yet another great year of gear reviews. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

[@elderinmoi1571]

merry christmas to you guys. all the best. great work in 2016 again and i am greatful that you continue with it.

[@cardiacade]

My god, I had no idea about the Beers and Cameras group, two of my favourite things; you guys are legends.

[@ThePhotoShow]

Great video guys. Really interesting how the Nikon and Canon APSC beat their full frame options.

[@2nd3rd1st]

To a new year of TCSTV and many more! Glasses up!

[@1650million]

Always a pleasure to see you guys. Only disappointment is NOT.ENOUGH.ALCOHOL. Long live TCSTV!

[@funfunfun536]

I think they have a plenty of outtakes :)

[@TimothyHalleran]

This was so much fun to watch, you guys are the best!

[@davyfbkk]

Chris, your camera reviews are excellent and I now feel that you are the camera world's version of Richard Hammond from Top Gear and The Grand Tour. Keep up the great and very entertaining shows.

[@TheSascha551]

Think this might've been the best way to wake up, thanks Jordan for uploading and Chris.... we now need a camera review only done in the Canadian accent!

[@jcruzfoto]

hahah.. great video guys and gal (Kaitlyn). You made me laugh and you made me cry (especially at the end). I made a timeline if anyone wants to jump to the main points: 2:10 - Lens #3 3:09 - Lens #2 3:52 - Lens #1 4:25 - Lens Honourable Mention 5:00 - Video Camera #3 5:50 - Video Camera #2 6:39 - Video Camera #1 7:29 - Best Trends 11:01 - Best Stills Camera #3 12:08 - Best Stills Camera #2 13:13 - Best Stills Camera #1 13:58 - Camera Honourable Mention 15:08 - Congrats!!! 15:36 - Funniest moment 16:20 - Worst Video Camera 18:19 - Worst Video Camera Dishonourable Mention 19:36 - Worst Lens 21:48 - Beers & Cameras 22:53 - Worst Stills Camera Honourable Mention 24:57 - Best beer face 25:03 - Worst Camera of 2016 #3 25:53 - Worst Camera of 2016 #2 27:27 - Worst Camera of 2016 #1 31:12 - The "moment"

[@heyitzLou]

Hey, did your Canadian version of Operation come with a $100k hospital bill like the American version?

[@sraja1304]

So many great cameras this year and meanwhile I'm sitting here, still choosing between Olympus OMD- 10 Mark II, Panasonic GX85 and Nikon D5500 for over 6 months... Choosing very first camera is surprisingly hard :D BTW, awesome video as always, guys. You're the best!

[@ih1786]

Not sure on the 5D4 dishonourable mention. As Jordan said in the 5d4 review this is not a video camera, so including it in a video segment seemed cheap. Still, despite the continued canon bashing, this is by far one of my favourite segments of the year and you guys are by far my favourite photo review channel. Thanks again for another fantastically entertaining year!!!

[@PiDsPagePrototypes]

Speaking as a Pentax owner,.... yeah, fair call on the video performance - we've been trying to get Sensor Shift switched back on in video since they turned it off for the K-01. The HDMI is equally as bad - the 645z with recordable Clean Feed HDMI would have been amazing in the era of ProRes recorders.

[@tptrsn]

Good honorable mention on the 80D guys. The more I use it, the more I love that it just solidly gives me good results. The video from it even grades pretty well in resolve for some reason... Oh yeah, I like these videos from you guys just a bit better when you are more hammered. Lol

[@Sam081590]

wish you guys had a "table of contents"

[@dobermansnp]

You guys are awesome! Thx for all the 2016 videos, wish u 2 all the best!!

[@ERP_Klim]

Where is a6500, a99ii, a7sii???? :(

[@inchoi2041]

plz review e-m1 mark 2... want to know your opinion

[@firworks]

No mention of G85. Most Least Middle of the Road Stills / Video Camera 2016: G85

[@alanwong402]

FirworksYT Definitely. I was a little surprised too that they didn't mention the G80/85.m

[@TheCameraStoreTV]

It was on our honourable mention list, but we had to cut it for time. Such a great camera! Jordan @ TCSTV

[@miatared]

Great job, love your show. Next year try Unibroue' La Fin du Monde - To Die for.

[@TheCameraStoreTV]

+Miata Red I was going to Drink La Fin Du Monde, it's my favourite beer, but the store was sold out. Jordan @ TCSTV

[@CSPTech]

I always love La Maudite, a favourite of mine

[@ichallengemydog]

Miata Red hats off to your fantastic taste sir

[@AlmightyUniden]

OUI LA FIN DU MONDE. My favorite too

[@pbenjlo]

Merry Christmas and happy new year guys.

[@farouk6564]

Another awesome video! Maybe include best and worst manufacturer of the year as a new category.

[@EugenBrinzoiu]

Love you guys... I'm so proud of you and this"best and worst" is amazing. Do you have a list for all the things discussed here?

[@MouldyPIX]

Great show lads, a bit surprised about the Pen-F, spot on re: OSMO..! Happy Christmas to you both..

[@RIDGIEDESIGNS]

Just came across you guys this year and I've watched a lot of your videos since especially these end of year videos, they are my favourite. You guys should have a drink at the end of every review and tell us what you really think. Haha

[@ryancube15]

I was this close to sleep. then this woke me up

[@Gijz74]

Good one again guys! I was a bit worried when I saw just one bottle of bear. But when the wodka showed up I knew this was going to be good again. I am also really looking forward to your E-M1 II review. Have played with it for an afternoon and it and I think it is great.

[@GrotrianSeiler]

Wow guys, that was HILARIOUS. As if I didn't like the channel enough, that video put it over the edge. Talking camera gear....drunk. Oh man. Keep up the great work. Big fan here. Too funny.

[@NorthOlbo]

Great to watch you guys let your hair down. Superb reviews. Good to see your goofy side.

[@riveraluciano]

Didn't know that about the D5, clearly I haven't done much reading about it. Great video as always guys.

[@jaserhunter]

Always my favorite videos of the year!

[@shaka-surf]

Jordan looks as if he's gonna puke! Another great annual show, guys!

[@morndiaye249]

Love the show guys!! Will you be making a review on the new panasonic lx10/15 ? I'm very interested to see what you think about it. keep up the good work !!

[@mattypaxton]

duuuuuuudes!! soo good!! love you guys! what a year! genuine laughs whilst watching. wish i could give you guys a big hug! happy birthday maddie. all the best to you ate your families! hope business is going great at "the camera store!" as far as reviews.. worst camera. pen-f. agreed. Leica M-D for sure. silliness how it costs more for a lesser specc'd unit. hate that. anyway. more to say, but maybe I'll just share this video and start chatting with my friends in social media land.

[@lamp5476]

I have waited so long for this!!!

[@EyeCaptureImages]

I really love when people complain about the 4K crop on the 5DIV and then give the D500 camera of the year...

[@Ildskalli]

It's kind of ironic, true, but one has to consider the sheer difference in price and market segment between the D500 and the 5DIV. Canon lost a big opportunity there to repeat the 5DII success story.

[@keithj9165]

interested to see your review on the em1 mkii, keep up the good vids!

[@TheCameraStoreTV]

About half done shooting and testing. I'll probably get it out early Jan. Jordan @ TCSTV

[@keithj9165]

Awesome! I'll be sure to watch it, I got mine last week and am loving it, definitely curious of your guys thoughts

[@lakejindsay]

Never watch reviews of cameras you bought and really like, lol ;)

[@keithj9165]

Jake Lindsay lol, I don't want to be naive, I'm also not afraid of people's opinions, I've been shooting with the em1 for years and in my mind, there's nothing else I personally want to shoot with, but knowing strengths and weaknesses can help reinforce my work :)

[@erinrosehallett]

Well done you guys on another great year, more videos next year though please, A very Merry Christmas and I hope you all have a superb New Year.

[@rosswaugh1254]

Another enjoyable end of year review, thanks guys

[@slhibbs]

Merry Christmas to you all :-) Thanks for the great reviews

[@d_doctographer]

Please do a review of Canon EOS M5. Waiting for your review.

[@davidedthinkin9679]

Is there a video coming for the Hasselblad? :)

[@sportsharks]

favorite episode every year

[@djaktube]

Is there a way to see the list of every gear they talked in the video?

[@ChrisUrbinsky]

Have you guys ever run across a gimbal suitable for an Rx100 IV or V? I would love to find something smaller than the Beholder MS1 (and use my RX100 V and gimbal instead of buying an OSMO) but there doesn't seem to be anything around in between the MS1 and go pro/smart phone gimbals.

[@JoaquimGonsalves]

Just saw this and fell in love. Can't wait for the 2017 edition. :)

[@actiaint]

Re the Pentax 15-30: everyone says it is the same as as Tamron version but it tests different - Pentax version is best at f5.6 where as Tamron version f8 (Ephotozine tests). Would be great if someone could clarify as to why? Nice to see you rank the K1 :)

[@zackchoy1969]

Merry X-mas and Happy New Year 2017!

[@samlc7]

Good info delivered in a fun way. Nice job guys!

[@llleolllolll]

What about the 1dx2? I think it should have had a spot in the best video camera thingy..

[@JohnRobertsTV]

Another great year end wrap up. One question: Why did you pick the Nikon 70-200mm lens over the Sony 70-200mm lens? You said nice things about both, but didn't say why the Nikon came in at number one.

[@seemee548]

why isn't the list available above? write it out guys.
