Get Better 4K with the Canon M50

[@raulgolfs]

I’ve been rocking the m50 for the past 2 years and been loving the 4K and 1080hd.

[@JeepTJWheelin]

I've been shooting real estate with the M50 and Laowa 9mm f/2.8 lens and getting very good results after a lot of trial and error. The Laowa 9mm with the crop factor is 13.5mm full frame. And the 4K footage is actually usable. Although I rarely get requests for 4k footage from the realtor. But nice to know it's there when I need it. Of course, 1080p @60fps looks just as good and perhaps better to some.

[@ElusiveFrame]

My next video is a short film shot in 4k with the canon M50 and boy was it a challenge (no speed booster). But it was super rewarding! BTW, I used to do my edits with Vegas Pro as well but Resolve is so much better. I would recommend doing some video in parallel to others, so you can familiarize yourself with Resolve without hurting your current workflow :)

[@FerryPrima]

I used 4K almost 90% of the time with my m50, now I feels weird without the crop when shooting in 1080p.

[@TheCrowleyCrew]

Lol! That is interesting, but it makes total sense.

[@PVMMAC]

Crop strangely enough I find actually beneficial .. I have m6II , 4k and speedbooster, and m50 I either use 1080p and when I want lens reach I use 4k

[@patriciaug23]

Hi!! I’m struggling to import my 4K videos to my iPhone or Mac, I just bought the camera. Can you help meeee?😢 it says “this movie can not be send”

[@FerryPrima]

@@patriciaug23 Hi! Not sure what causes that but the video format .mp4 should have no issue to be read by any devices

[@EverydayTechSJB]

As a beginner KZbinr using an M50 dude you taught me SO much, thanks for these videos

[@EvidenceofaFabulousLife]

Thanks for the great information and explanations that even I can understand. 1080p is good enough for me and my output. Quite a few “big” KZbinrs shoot in 1080 and then up res to 4K when they output to KZbin to beat the compression. I’m not convinced the world is ready for actual 4K yet. All my DJI products have a HDR option and shooting in this at 1080p allows my 4K TV to upscale it to 4K from the HDR footage. I think I’ll live with 1080p on the M50 just love this little camera!

[@BIMLounge]

For talking head on a tripod the 4k is great. I actually use a loud and old 20-40mm full-frame Tamron, so very much like your setup. I can be at an arm's length from the camera so I can focus on myself easily. To keep an eye on focus I recommend connecting the camera via USB to a pc for talking head.

[@TheCrowleyCrew]

Yeah! The app can also work well for that cause you can adjust focus via the app.

[@kasabov1518]

Hey Crowley! You mentioned you're using cinestyle, I was too for a long time but I always noticed footage turned out soft! Recently I found out Filmkit flat, I highly suggest you to research it and give it a try, I much prefer it, instead of cinestyle, will not be going back! Not a paid promoter or anything, just sharing my own experience I love the profile, and it might be good content to compare it with cinestyle! 🙌

[@ElBoyoElectronico]

Can confirm, I have seen a couple of KZbinrs who use filmkit flat and their footage looked really great!

[@thatszeno5089]

I have it too. Great profile

[@lastminutesublet4439]

Starting shooting in 4K with the M50 about halfway through 2020 and am absolutely loving it. Rolling shutter is TERRIBLE and I agree with you 100% there...I think it is even worse in 4K, IMHO. Great tips. I have been using the focus peaking, but am going to try the focus zoom that you illustrated. Thanks for another great one!

[@SolidBlueBlocks]

In 1080p, there is no rolling shutter, or is it just unnoticeable

[@perrypelican9476]

Wow. I'm out of breath. I will watch this video a few times to understand. It's not because you explain badly. It's because there is so much detail, and you leave nothing out. EXCELLENT video. So much detail in short time.

[@movemorenowjames]

Just picked a canon m50 yesterday, ordered a sigma 16mm today... start creating tomorrow. (Big step up from my GoPro max, osmo action and DJI pocket ) ...

[@thefray123]

Bro you have such awesome content. Keep up the great work. So glad I chose the m50 so I could find your channel.

[@TheCrowleyCrew]

Thank you!

[@SandMark22]

Actually you can use ef-s lenses and the speed booster. That plastic piece on the s lens will pop off enabling you to attach it to the speed booster and no more vignetting. NOTE: this hack only works when the camera is in video mode and you need to set stabilization to enhanced. When you are done the plastic piece snaps back on and you can use a regular adapter for photography.

[@brandonroberts-blake4223]

And this is why I got the M6 Mark II so the crop wouldn’t be so bad and I wouldn’t lose dual pixel autofocus. The M50 though for the price is a beast.

[@kaffeeskateboards]

Dear Crowley Crew, we are still looking for a canon m50 Fisheye lens content. We use for our videos an old third party lens ( vivitar lens) for the canon ef with an adapter. We wonder if there is a differenz between all the manuel fisheye lenses. In our opinion, the canon m50 is a great video camera for skateboarding, but it seems that this little camera is kinda underrated when it comes to filming skateboarding tricks.

[@babyb360]

Great review on 4k. I find myself watching your vids over and over again.

[@joymae]

Thank you! I want to learn how to improve my skills with 4k

[@kyie.kie_]

Now am back to buying the m50💥 Specifically m50 Mark 11

[@johnsmalldridge6356]

It’s kind of crazy how expensive most camera systems have gotten. The Canon m series is still the king of low cost video making. Looks like you got some new gear.

[@Drostvideo]

What are the advantages of shooting in 4K over 1080p?

[@TheCrowleyCrew]

Slightly Sharper image and a lot more information to use in post. You can manipulate the image more without it falling apart as quickly.

[@Drostvideo]

@@TheCrowleyCrew Thx good to know and experiment with

[@RexxReviews]

Great video as always! I FORCED myself to use resolve from Adobe Premiere, mainly so i could stop paying $30+ a month. I drove me nuts for months. Over a year later I am VERY glad I made the change. I don't see the link for the Laptop you said you got.

[@FITBASTIAN]

i think using the Tv mode full hd is better than 4k movie mode, i tried dozens of videos and any day Tv mode for vlogs or tutorials wins . 4k is good for timelapses but sucks that its croped. Anyways for the cameras price i think it still offers a lot like 120fps which a lot of cameras that price dont yet have

[@baracskatibor1898]

A lot depends on whether you use an sd card suitable for 4k recording in the camera!

[@DanFrullani]

I use a Canon M50, 90D and EOS R for my channel...I have an old MacBook pro 8g ram and I'm having hard times editing 4K...and even if somehow I found a way around this issue...I feel like my computer might explode anytime when editing and/or rendering. I use Davinci Resolve by the way. The only reason why a few months ago I bought the EOS R instead of the R5 or R6 is because I was afraid that the files produced by these cameras would have been impossible to edit on my computer....so next big purchase: a new computer!

[@ScottJWaldron]

Nice video as usual. Glad to hear you were able to upgrade your laptop! I'm also attached to (Magix) Vegas video editing software and had the same feeling about Resolve. I do use the M50 in 4K occasionally with close up b-roll of gear to get a bit more detail, but that's about it.

[@DanFrullani]

That's interesting, I usually shoot b-roll of gear in slow motion...so I had never considered the possibility to use 4k for that....(my cameras don't have high frame rates in 4k) but after reading your comment I'm going to give it a try. Thank you Scott!

[@ScottJWaldron]

@@DanFrullani With the stuff I do, the only motion might be the lens or camera I'm filming (on a lazy susan or in my hands, etc). So more like functional b-roll instead of artistic. I don't attempt to slow down the 4k 24p though I do use it in a 30p timeline without issue.

[@100percentcool48917]

I love this video, it came into my life when I was ready for it…thank you!

[@purple87ss]

Where you been Job???? Hope all is well. Haven’t seen a video posted lately.

[@nicolithepoet7777]

I use proxies to edit 4k in 720, then after rendering it out in low resolution, I swap it back out with the 4k footage.

[@Jamesnu]

Really great info and presented so well! Excellent job!

[@tonywatson1508]

Thanks for this I was always put off using 4k with the M50 but this has helped a lot I have the speed booster too but I noticed in your intro pic that blue piece is that a lock for the speed booster ? If so I'd love to know where it came from keep up the good work 👍

[@KyleAndersonSkates]

Miss ya man. Hope you and the family is doing alright.

[@TheCrowleyCrew]

We are. I have a video that I haven’t had time to edit yet but I should be posting soon.

[@plamenstavrev6312]

I've ordered my m50 just now :) and all sorts of budget gear around it. In a few weeks i hope i get all and turn this little camera into work horse:) Love your content. It feels natural and casual-relaxing. Keep it up and ask canon to brand u as "the master ot m50" hehe :D

[@josephkent3788]

I've a question that will show my complete ignorance... so I apologize. I purchased a meike 25m 1.8 lens for my canon m50. It has an EF-M mount... it fits the canon m50 body, shows on screen both in camera as well as movie mode. However, the camera will neither take a picture with this lense nor shoot video. Was I wrong in purchasing this lens? In order to use it, do I need an adapter (if so, what kind and in your opinion is it worth it?)? In advance, thank you for any advice you can give me.

[@TheCrowleyCrew]

The video should help kzbin.info/www/bejne/hJiXmoFmar1roMU

[@felontv257]

Is this video was recorded by M50? If yes, i like the quality of video. Will try to achieve this quality.

[@GeoSphere]

Hey Job! Another great video. Very informative and very concise. Thanks! I have a question regarding your general set up on your M50. I’ve noticed in the past and in this video’s thumbnail that you have an ArcaSwiss plate on the bottoms of your SmallRig cage. I’m wondering why. I ask because the bottoms of the smallRig cage for the M50 is machined as a long AcraSwiss plate. I can slide mine into all of my tripod heads. Again asking why you use an extra AcraSwiss plate screwed to the bottom of your M50’s cage. Thanks.

[@UngaMagnus]

Great video! Can’t wait to try editing in 4K...my computer is a potato though...

[@BIMLounge]

I edit 4k on a laptop and it's very usable. The trick is to do most of your editing in a quarter resolution and then export in full resolution.

[@RodoVkz]

i need a review about that lens, the 11-16

[@AbdullahWL]

Have you always used 1080p recording for all previous videos filmed with M50?

[@cm_nicolas]

Thanks, always great content. I learned a lot of tips from this channel.

[@TwoTimesRmedia]

I'm not a fan of davinci resolve, I've used premier, and Imovie . I think a noob like myself would benefit from using Imovie seeing how it is free. I liked premier over davinci. Davinic was just a little too taxing on my Mac and my pc which actually has a dedicated gpu even though it is an older Nvidia.

[@MichaelJohnsonProductions]

Couldn’t find the link to the computer you are using to edit 4K

[@femiomomo4467]

For 4k try using your phone for the heavy work the processor is better suited to video editing. I use Kinemaster on my android phone, it is also available on Apple IOS. 🍎

[@MichaelJohnsonProductions]

@@femiomomo4467 I dont have any problems editing 4k video. I just wanted to see what he purchased for editing 4k. I love computers and wanted to see his upgrade.

[@matthewdrexler188]

Even though it takes away from the wideness of the lense does it affect resolution or does it remain true 4k in resolution?

I see you have that tokina 11 / 16mm is that correct how do you like that? Is it any good

Question: Does it fit an EF 50mm 1.8 with the adapter and the smallrig cage? Thanks

[@cassianfilms1319]

Yes!!!!!!!

[@femiomomo4467]

I use filmora on the pc with my old pc. It can be done but you need to hit a button in filmora to render the clip first. Any challenging files like 4k I edit in my phone first using Kinemaster this is soo fast with 4k its amazing!. This is because your phone has probably been updated more regularly than your PC. Enjoy 😉

I’ve always wondered how you guys can tell. Do you have indicators or gadgets or are you guys surrounded by low, mid, and tweeter monitor speakers when you listen to the audio or can you tell just by watching it on a cellphone using your ears without any audio measuring gadgets? As for the other viewers/listeners, can you guys tell just using your ears?
