Stop putting that X100V in your thumbnails and then not talking about it. That camera is too good to be ignored.

Great video mate. I’m still brand new on my YouTube journey as a photographer but channels like yours keep me inspired and motivated. I really wanna try a mirrorless now.

Set your clocks! I now have a habit of resetting all my clocks after the time changes twice a year. Two cameras, a camcorder, a couple Zoom sound recorders, Sound Devices MixPre-6 II, etc. I hate getting back to the computer and some files are an hour off. It bugs me! 🤣

Thanks for this comprehensive video about setting up a new camera. It has 2 unique points. The first is finding out the highest ISO of one's camera that creates the most acceptable noise level for the user. The second is how much overexposed & underexposed one can shoot photo & videos and then recover the highlights & shadows in post. I've seen them in other reiviewers' videos but nobody has told me to do them when I just purchase a new camera. Great job!

I scoffed at your suggestion to read the manual. Then I began reading the manual, and it's consolidated things in a way I didn't expect (even though I have been using a Canon C200 for two years now). Great advice!

Where is X100v...? We love to hear about that.

For all the Sony users:
If you have an a6300 or similar, which use the FW50 batteries, I can suggest the Baxxter alternatives. They are red instead of black which I don't lika haha, but the last the exact same time if not even a bit longer and they cost less than half of the Sony's price.
And I've never had problems using them, neither friends of mine who are using them as well✌🏼

Great video, again. I asked this question once on a camera forum and got so many toxic replies. This was great. Cheers!

[avdcam]

Did you try the luminance +2 on the c70 display while working outdoors?

[pruett]

On the note of batteries, even secondary brands that work correctly and are safe usually don’t last as long. So it’s still worth going with the battery made by the camera company.

[gstpierre]

Coming in from the podcast, great video! Also that is the most trust I think I've ever seen put into a hotshoe on that c70 lmao

[UnwantedSelf]

My Fujifilm s5 used to shoot to PNG, bit more wiggle compared to large Jpeg

[TizOnly]

I've had a C70 for a couple months now and you can shoot 4k 120 with V60S cards. Been doing it for months and never had an issue. Angelbrd V60s for me.

[CNMTCFilms]

5:55 haha yeah, my a6000 looks fine up to ISO 400 😂
But 200 and 400 are als the dynamic range sweet spot I think

[tylerhuttosmith]

I know what you meant, but Arca Swiss is a brand just FYI they make large format cameras

[LoganTremellen]

Favorite lenses on the c70? For my workflow (action sports photography) I'm taking advantage of the super 35 crop and not using the speed booster. I'm actually really interested in / happy with the compact sizes of the rf glass so far.

For years, people like myself find its hard to try photography as instruction are thick and hard to understand, your introduction series are excellent and the words choice + explanations make it simple for beginners

[silvestrossouthernitaly]

a lot of great tips. Love your videos. If you ever come to Italy, I owe you and your wife dinner.

Extra thumbs up for using a scene from I Am Number Four! (Building exploding behind sunglasses woman)
