Camera and VLOGGING Gear #Best Education Page #Online Earning

what's up just dug here and I'm gonna

tell you about the camera gear that I

use to shoot these videos and

photography and stuff like that so let

me start off by saying I've been into

cameras and interested in photography

since probably middle school or so and I

remember having like a little point

shoot 35 millimeter cameras and then as

I started cutting grass and working and

had money to buy cameras I bought like I

think was a Canon Rebel 2000 back in

around the year 2000 or 2001 and you

know I paid for it with my own money and

I still have lenses from those days so

that said you probably realized I'm

using Canon gear since I do have Canon

lenses and I'm just used to using Canon

but I do have tons of other stuff and

I'll show you some of the things that

I'm using so first off you'll notice

that it's very well lit right now so I

will just sort of flip the camera around

here and show you there's these light

light boxes softbox is here and I didn't

upgrade to these lights for a long time

I thought they were too expensive but I

never really looked very closely and

what I have here I'll put links in the

description but these are like two 400

watt like softboxes it comes with a

little carrying case and it's great it

was only about 60 to 70 dollars when I

bought it

there's tons of others like that and you

can see it's quite bright it works

wonderfully and if I could give you any

tips lighting is so important if you

don't have lights like these that's

totally fine you can just sit in front

of a window and that'll have a similar

effect with like some soft lighting and

assuming you don't have the Sun Shine

you directly yeah so I can't remember

what brand these are but they're pretty

generic and there's a lot of different

brands that are roughly in that price

range they setup and teardown really

easily and I've even shot a few videos

at my office and I could just carry the

bag it's like a gym bag

sighs something like that maybe a little

bit longer but it's not very heavy very

portable so lighting is super important

let me talk about some of the camera

gear so before I get into the Canon of

stuff I recently picked up not too long

ago

ay-yi 4k action camera with the gimbal

and selfie stick and all that action in

there too so I'll turn on the gimbal and

you could see what it does so let me get

my head out of the frame so the gimbal

keeps this baby rock steady and it's

pretty amazing how dramatic the footage

is if you could have stable footage it's

it's really awesome so I wasn't sure if

I was gonna get the gimbal and then

after I kind of read some of the reviews

and stuff I was like yeah it's only an

extra little bit and the e 4k is much

cheaper than like a GoPro although

you'll see it's quite a similar size so

I do have the selfie stick as well which

is kind of helpful but really this

gimbal situation is really awesome

I got an accessory kit that has

different mounting scenarios and like a

harness and stuff like that for the e 4k

I don't use it a ton but I'm looking to

use it a little bit more the e 4k does

high speed like frame rates so I can

record I think it's it like 1080p which

is generally what I shoot at 1080p like

120 frames per second so I haven't used

it much but that is one thing where I'll

probably use it in this video where I

could shoot video the high frame rate so

I could run it back in slow motion just

to have a little bit more like b-roll

which I usually don't have most of my

early videos consisted of me sitting

right in front of my computer in a dimly

lit room and it was a little rough

alright so I'm gonna try and use the e

4k a little bit more and take advantage

of that awesome frame rate so let's get

into some of the Canon gear the lens

that I'm shooting on right now is a

sigma 18 to 35 f 1.8 so it's a

wide-angle very fast zoom lens you can

see how sharp I am

or anything in the like in the frame I'm

just gonna hold up one of the lenses and

you'll see that that's gonna be very

clear and then I'm out of focus back

here right so it really throws the back

room out of focus and it actually

focuses pretty quickly you could see how

well it works and I really like this

Sigma lens

I didn't realize Sigma had such high

quality lenses in their lineup but I was

always thinking like Sigma's worse for

the the cheaper off-brand and I always

saw crazy deals for him but this lens

wasn't cheap it was sort of comparable

but a little cheaper than the Canon I

think it's a 16 to 35 F 2.8 if you're

completely unfamiliar with lenses the

f-stop the speed aperture of the lens

allows more light to come in so you

could open it up wider the lower numbers

mean it opens up wider and a 2.8 is just

not as bright so when you open it up to

1.8 it really throws the background out

of focus I don't need as much lighting

in here in fact I could probably turn

off one of the two lights that I have

and it would still be okay the point is

this lens is really awesome now the one

downside is it's quite heavy the lens

that it replaced was a Canon 24

millimeter F 2.8 which was very small

and super light turns out my mom was

visiting and she was like hey I really

like this lens and I was like just keep

it just keep the lens and I'll find

something else or buy another one as I

started investigating I saw that this

zoom was out and picked it up like I

said it's pretty heavy but part of it is

because it's so well built and it is by

far like the highest quality lens at

half now let me tell you about some of

the other ones as I have here so this is

an old-school 50 millimeter F 1 point 8

I think and it is not the USM version so

and it's not the STM version so I really

can't use this for video effectively

because it makes a lot of noise when it

focuses so it's just it was made for

photography anyway this is great for

just sort of a mid-range the 50

millimeter on

aps style camera is gonna be I think

it's like an 85 or something like that

anyway you don't want to see me do this

math in my head but it's a great very

sharp lens it's quite light and if I'm

just gonna go run around I might use

this one this lens here I got with a kit

so the modern DSLR that I got was a

Canon t2i back in like 2011 and it came

with this lens right here which is an 18

to 135 and the f-stop is so much slower

lens where the heck is that written it

is in F 3 point 5 2 F 5 point 6 so it's

a much slower lens like most zoom lenses

are and it does have image stabilization

which does come in handy but this was

like this lens and the 50 that's what I

used for a very long time for a few

years and 18 to 135 gives you you know

generally wide-angle I think what we're

shooting on right now is an 18

millimeter and so this lens can go just

as wide but it doesn't have the depth of

field that the 1.8 has on the Signum so

this is a great just sort of versatile

lens so if I if I run from going down to

like Yellowstone for example and I want

to take some pictures there's gonna be

some landscapes maybe I get close to a

bison or you know some other animal and

I want to take a picture like a buck

then I could use this lens and zoom in

pretty well of course it's not like

ultra telephoto I'm not gonna be taking

a picture of a bear with it hopefully

because that means the bear is way too

close alright the other lens that I

picked up here was this is a canon and

we're back to Canada this is a 10 to 18

and it's much lighter it's much lighter

than the Sigma wider of course so this

is 10 to 18 that's an F 4.5 to 5.6 with

image stabilization the last two lenses

that I showed you we're both like STM

I can't remember I think it's like step

something motors I can't remember but

they do focus well and generally quietly

so I can shoot video with both of these

I got this ones here the 10 to 18 when

we started traveling a little bit out

west and I knew that I wanted to take

some nice wide angle like images and it

would be a great camera to walk around

generally light wide-angle sweet

photography if I'm gonna be taking

pictures of landscapes or whatever it's

just kind of I enjoy a wide angle I

really enjoy a wide angle so I picked

this one up a few years ago and for a

little while it was the only lens that I

was using for vlogging because of the

wide angle now the lens that I have on

on the camera now the 18 to 35 F 1.8 I

do I love like having the background out

of focus so you can see what I'm getting

closer like it just looks so much better

to me so that this lens here is sort of

the primary and with F 1.8 it generally

replaces like the prime lenses that I

had before

what else do I use so I'd have an iPhone

10 and I picked this up last year when

when they found that I had for a very

long time died I think I had an iPhone 6

that eventually bit the dust the battery

just wasn't working I had it for about

three years so I decided to upgrade to

this baby which is great I love it and

the camera is really excellent I mean

you can really tell the difference

between taking a picture with with this

camera and like my wife's you know she

has an iPhone 6s or something like that

we keep phones for a long time so I used

this pretty regularly just to take

pictures and stuff and for a stretch I

was shooting a decent amount of video

when I get the Sigma lens that opens up

so wide that actually can be something

you have to deal with because if you

open up the lens really wide it throws

the background out of focus which is

cool however the downside is if you're

outside for example and it's very bright

outside like a sunny day you're gonna be

over exposing just in general so I

bought these nd filters which is neutral

density and basically they

are just little filters little but there

are filters that have a different let's

see if we could focus on those that have

just a neutral density coloring on it

and it'll knock it down I think I have

to so at nd to and nd Ford and nd8 and

you can stack them on top of each other

and knock it down even more so I have

shot a couple of videos inside where I

had the lights on but I wanted to have

the background out of focus I want to

run this at 1.8 so I take advantage of

all that glass that I have on the camera

so I popped on like the ND 4 and then it

knocked it down to an appropriate level

of exposure so if you do get a very wide

lens you may need to do that sound is

very important too and the other day I

actually had the microphone off which

I'll show you in a second had the

microphone off of there and basically I

just picked up the camera recorded a

little bit and then put popped it on the

computer and it sounded like I was

yelling down a tube or something like

that and there was echo all over the

place now I'm actually in a not a very

good sound area so there's wood floor

there's a big glass sliding door over

here there's walls and surfaces all over

the place versus like a bedroom with

carpet and such so this room is pretty

echoey but the sound is OK

already the sound is not terrible the

reason why and I'll record actually I'll

pull some footage here while we're

hanging that's some of the other gear on

the e4 okay

so the microphone that I have and that I

primarily use for all the videos is a

shure lens hopper and I think when I

bought it it was about 200 bucks or so

but we'll put a link in the description

so you can check it out

but basically it works fantastic with

this camera that I have which is a canon

t7 I and the reason why I got the t7

eyes it has what they called dual pixel

autofocus so it allows like

really effective focusing so when I've

been moving stuff in front of the camera

here it'll focus on whatever is right

there and then it'll be able to refocus

on my face and it's just it works really

well and I'm very happy with how like I

guess smart the autofocus system is now

when I recorded some of my early videos

on the Canon t2i which like I said is

circa 2010 2011 it didn't have the dual

pixel autofocus I think it only shot in

720p I don't know if P goes in there but

it was a lower resolution it was pretty

darn good especially if you got lights

going on but if I moved around the focus

was like not great so some of my early

videos I would spend like 10 minutes

focusing I would like take pictures and

check and see how the focus was and then

I would turn the autofocus off turn it

over to manual focus and I would

literally like Mark where I was standing

on the floor with tape and I would not

move so I wave my arms around and stuff

but I wouldn't move so I'm gonna go in

with this me 4k I'm gonna start courting

here and show you the camera that we

have here and I see now that it's just

too darn bright so I'm gonna have to

shoot some b-roll a different way but

this is sort of the setup that we're

using here I have a couple other things

and just accessories and stuff like that

so tripods I have like one very cheap

tripod that I used to sometimes put a

small LED light on otherwise I sometimes

use it to hold my phone with this guy

which is a Manfrotto

a little smartphone and it has a little

grab with on there so I could just pop

pop it in like this and it holds it

really well so there's just a normal

tripod thread at the bottom and I could

put that you know wherever I have the

tripod that I'm using right now is a

slick that I got about 20 years ago

I said when I was getting into

photography and knew that I needed some

kind of tripod so I grabbed this one and

I'm shocked that it is not broken I

think I paid 50 or 60 bucks for it like

20 years ago which was a decent amount

of money for you know college kid but I

was like you know what this should last

it's a good brand blah blah blah and no

issues with it other than there was like

a little crank to raise and lower the

camera tripod zone and that that little

handle broke off it was plastic but it's

still operational I just have to like

lift the head of the tripod up and down

and it's basically good to go

another little gadget I got a while back

is a Joby Gorillapod which I got it

before I started vlogging or doing

anything so I've had this probably for

six years or so something like that five

years time goes by so fast so I don't

actually remember I've had it for a

while but you know what I don't like

these as much as everyone else I did try

and use it for vlogging a little bit but

these little these little pod things

they just like pop off if I ever tried

to set it up it would just like like

lose its balance and fall over because

they just move too easily so it is

effective for something much lighter

like a phone but I would never try and

use this with that lens because it's

just too heavy and it would fall over it

would it would not work so with that

particular lens I probably got to keep

it on it on an actual tripod that can

actually hold it bit steady I mean the

the gorilla pod is fine for phones maybe

point shoots if like the only time that

I could really use this is if I had like

the t7 high on here using like the 24

millimeter that Canon STM that I

mentioned before which is super small

super light and the balance would be

okay and this would potentially work but

yeah just in general the gorilla pods

are compromised and everything they're

versatile but they don't do anything

very well and in my case I'm just like

it hardly

hardly hold my phone up alright so just

do these just move around too too much

in my opinion maybe I have an older

version that it's not as good but anyway

this is another thing that he used I

think that covers most of my general

stuff I on a couple lenses I do have

like a polarizing filter on this 18 to

135 so for photography and stuff like

that

which I used this extensively for it was

great to like darken up the sky get rid

of some reflection and all the good

stuff that a circular polarizer will do

alright if you have any questions about

the gear that I have you know leave a

question in the comments and I'm always

upgrading gear to seem so every every

few months I'll start looking a little

bit more and I'll end up with a new lens

or a new tripod or some other little

gadget I like I like getting gear and

stuff like that so it's it's a perfect

fun way to collect gear and actually use

it I don't baby my gear too much and I

usually you know I'll throw these I'll

throw these lenses in a backpack and I'm

probably a little bit too rough on them

but I mean this stuff's made to be used

so I'd rather use it and not baby it

versus you know put it on a shelf and

not use it so anyway we'll catch next

time and do check out some of the vlog

footage I mainly talk about affiliate

marketing and other marketing ideas and

stuff like that that I do publish some

vlogs as well so do check those out I

use a combination of the gear here
