Is the Canon 90D a pro camera.

My opinions on the canon 90d.

[nnikkem]

Just bought this camera and paid a little bit over 800 $ which sounded a good deal to me! Looking forward to shoot with this.

Sony is your fav ... That makes sense that you are inclined. Canon 90d is a beast and an all rounder.

I had this camera since 2021 may.

I have to say that many youtube videos done with this camera are not done in professional way(meaning lack of lights, composition etc. cinematic stuff).

The camera itself wont make you professional, its "how you using camera, surroundings lights and build the scene".

I got also canon 600D, and you can do amazing photos with it, if you got right lenses and know the tricks. Megapixels or epensive camera are not the issue with photos, its composition and understanding how you tell the story.

With video, this camera is great if you got studio lights and proper lens (like samyang 24mm T1.5, or some old pentax vintage lenses). Also post editing is key to here...with davinci resolve, you need to learn to adjust colors, lights and add some VFX (like glow, halation, etc. minor effects to make video more cinematic).

But if you gonna buy new camera "now", there is certainly better options available. But if you manage to get this one used with fair price, go for it, but get proper lens.

As a second camera.... I'm thinking of upgrading from my 70D. It has a lot going for it compared to that. I am reluctant to switch to another manufacturer because of the lens set.

Thats just fanboyish saying that the 90D raw files are harder to edit than the a7siii. Like what? Canon Raw has been around for longer than Sonny and every application works just fine with it. I use lightroom and capture one and have edited all raw files even from Panasonic they are all the same. The editing process is all the same. A 7sii had more dynamic range but thats all.

Great video. I use this camera for my YouTube channel and photography! Keep up the good work!

Paired with my ninja v+ I'd highly dispute your claims of non professional

[simmo]

Not for any situation that is a one-off, Weddings for example. Unless there are two of you. Two of them, perhaps. Certainly it would be terrible bad luck for a failure but that would be no comfort to a client. Twin card camera needed.

I loved my Canon 90D. I used it more than my Canon 6D mark II. Unfortunately, it got stolen from me.

I don't understand why you are so hung up on the 2SD card issue. For any camera, 1 SD slot, 2 SD slots, or 300 SD slots, there is always a risk of failure. Any camera can go wrong. It's electronic, and things go wrong sometimes.

i am trying to purchase through best buy but they are still out of stock :(

Canon 90D DSLR is not a professional grade camera.

Lacks the tough weather sealed body of a pro camera.

Has limited custom functions.
(Many customizable functions on pro cameras are one touch activated. Without the user having to hold down the assigned button.)

Single memory card slot.
No dual cards like pro cameras.
(With no ability to save and recall camera settings to or from a card.)

No automatic brightness control for rear LCD.

 4:3 "Ideal Format, " square (1:1) and 16:9 as-shot image crops, but only shown in the finder with black lines, not with darkened crop areas.

 No timed manual exposure times longer than 30 seconds. You have to use Bulb, a remote release and an external timer instead.

No custom file names. All images are similar to IMG_0123.JPG or IMG_0123.CR3;
(you can't set them to 90D_0123 or my preffered FLS_0123.)

These are just some of the special features lacking in the 90D.
Features that Canon pro grade cameras are capable of.

Canon 1series, 5 D and 7 D DSLR camera bodies are all geared for the pro photographers.

Professional photographer cameras auto focus is by far where canon pro cameras really shine.

The autofocus (AF) function of more advanced EOS cameras can be refined. Since the EOS-1D series was launched in 2001, you have been able to tweak the AF parameters to suit the type of action you are shooting by making changes via the Custom Functions menu.

However, as the AF has become more complex and customisable, it has also become more complicated to understand and configure. The goal is to combine a sophisticated and fully customisable AF system with ease of use.

This is where Case settings (also known as the AF Configuration Tool) came in.

Which cameras offer Case settings?

The following Canon EOS cameras feature six Case settings:

• EOS-1D X

• EOS-1D X Mark II

• EOS 5D Mark IV

• EOS 5DS / 5DS R

• EOS 7D Mark II
