Is it the svvizera

Yeah, I'm buying one of these. Can you tell me a little about your camera set up in this video? What camera was this shot with and what's holding it? Is it on a harness?

Beautiful.

Very nice

Inspiring video.... Thanks

8000 is low for u lol

Where was that? SoCal? Never seen that kind of mist/haze, beautiful! Picking up one of these any day now as my first real camera. Thanks for the demonstration of the camera, getting more stoked the more videos i watch.

Awesome drawing!

Do you remember the camera settings?

2024 still alive

Some of the greatest images in the last 20 years were taken on the Canon 5D and 5D2. Great cameras don't stop being great just because technology moves on. You need to ask yourself "Why did these cameras take great images?". There's no question that Sony came along and raised the technology bar but then people spent hours trying to get their Sony images to look like Canon images. Nothing in photography is more important than the images, and the images from these early Canons look amazing (throw the Canon 6D in there as well). Today you can buy a Canon 5D + Canon 5D2 + Canon 6D + 50mm 1.8 .. for the same price as the latest iPhone. 300 dollars for an immaculate 5D2!!! I mean what are people waiting for?

omg. He shoots on auto??? haha :D ok.. i thought he is photographer... Guess not... Just not worth watching further!!

After seeing your video, i told myself man i dont want to sell my g7 anymore + photography sites want to give me like 120 euros for it! Nah im good i will keep my g7😂

If you are looking for a GREAT camera, a D5 Mk ii is an absolute steal at current prices!!

Still shoot an XT2 in 2024, along with a Nikon FM2n film camera for personal stuff. I also have an XT4 and honestly I find the XT2 more enjoyable to shoot.

Interesting but, $700 used without a lens ?

what lens were u using. i’m about to buy the 5d mark iii and have a sigma 70-300. i know you used a 50 mm prime but was the brand sigma/tamron,etc. thank you so much for making this video!!

I have an Ursa12k with S35 and a Takumar 28mm lens. What can I do so that the image section is a real 28mm and not so zoomed in? I really want to have the “real” 28mm look on the camera. Should I buy a 20mm lens so that it looks like a real 28mm thanks to the crop / FF to S35 conversion? Unfortunately I don't understand.

That was great and nicely presented! The answer I was looking for...

Mate Great

Great video and some great shots. Love the beach looks. It's kinda unbelievable that one can buy a 2300$ semipro full frame camera like this for 300-500$ now. This was my dream back in the day in 2009. With the right lens and some practice it produces stunning results. Thank you.

My first DSLR camera that I purchased recently (early this year, 30k miles in 14 years). I spent a very long time choosing between crop and full frame, settled on this camera and did not regret it. Yes, it’s old, and it’s hard to take pictures, but I no longer have enough of a phone and this is a conscious choice, the result of the photographs is impressive.

Very few cameras since, if any, can match the colour rendition of the 5D mk1 or mk2.

The digic processor is the best in the mark 2, along with the chassis.

Nice :) It's a cliche but it's the photographer not the camera. Just look at the greatest photographs ever taken in the history of the art form. They are on old cameras. Some way more basic than the Canon 5D mark 2. You also pay less for older cameras. Not always but usually. Unless you want to keep up the Joneses. The vast majority of people looking at your pictures won't know or care what you used. Question is, do you have the skill to use a camera that doesn't have, for example, 1,000 focus points and right-eye dominant autofocus. Good photographers do.

It's 2024 and I'm going to buy d7200 as an upgrade of my current D300.

On my way to Spain so this is helpful .....

very goood video !!!!!!

I own the same setup minus the strap 🔥

Thank you so much for this review, I'm trying to decide what video camera to get for my travel pages and don't really understand all the camera lingo alot of the time so I just get confused and see big £ signs and don't know what I'm doing 😄 this review is great I just need to know if it will do what I need, without me spending a ton of money xx

Love my G7 in 2024 it’s a 4k BEAST WITH MY 50mm 1.2❤

11:34 You can set your exposure once check that its right then you should be able to (in relatively static lighting) either adjust relative to it or leave it alone. Most of the time the people that chimp are shooting in an assisted mode anyway not manual ... not to mention all modern DSLRs have multiple different light meters in them. Sorry but I disagree. Your job as a photographer is to concentrate on the subject not on the camera.

Kindly recommend me a versatile budget lens with it for photos and film too....thanx

Is it still your favourite or do you have more ? Awesome video and pictures 🤩😍

X-T1 is still a great camera.

I still have 5D2...I love it! :) I used it when I was working in a studio many years ago. So I bougth one last year, in box for 180 USD. I have many other cameras....but there is something special about the 5D MK2. :)

I just bought an Xt2. I love it getting used to it. I am coming from a nikon d700 which I still use and love also

Use with - EOS 5Dsr ?

Honestly, this is also what I have done. I'm getting ready to go on a 1 month photography road trip, and expecting to take 20K+ photos.... I can fit that many on four 128gb SD cards, so figuring 8 would give me a double copy of those. "IF" I could see I was coming up on 20K shots, and not going to have enough storage, I could always buy a few more cards "during" my trip. SD memory cards are pretty easy to get, and I'll be hitting a Wal Mart for groceries every few days anyway. Guess I need to get a few more cards.... and that little carrying case :) Thank you :)

The D5 ii produces the best colours of any Camera Canon made and since. If you want to shoot video, get a video camera. Its up there with the D700, but its primitive focus points are not so good for moving subjects.

The Trans X 3 sensor is my favorite. Im happy to know that I wont be wasting any money on a later model.

Nice video! Sorry what lens was this mate? Thanks!

Hi John! Thanks for the video! Have you had time yet to test the Sigma 18-55, 2.8? Especially in combo with the 40mp sensor?

I love my Mark D ii ❤😊

Hey, awesome video! I’m torn between an XS10 or XT2 for 4k video. Just getting serious doing videography in 4k. Should I get the XT2 and invest on lenses?

I wish I lived somewhere as photogenic as this! Canon 5d mk2 is a masterpiece of a camera, always will be! Loved this video, subbed!

Hello, I think to buy a used D7200 (Shutter count only 3500) with the Sigma 150 - 600 mm F5,0-6,3 DG OS HSM Contemporary (only 100 pictures made with this lens), the Nikkor 18-105 mm, the Nikkor 55-200 mm and the Nikkor 18-55 mm. The price would be overall 800 €. Do you think this is a suitable allround setup for shooting wildlife, landscapes portraits etc. and what would you think of the price? Best regards from austria

Got one in 2024 😅

Amazing work. Top notch. May I know what sharpness settings you used here? Also any promist filters? What strength? Thanks

I was fighting for a canon 90d, I like storms and sport but for 350 euros I got a XT2, it is an ideal machine for my uses, only for my telephoto lenses like 600mm I lose 50 due to the 1.5x crop. Good video!
