    Going to buy the BOYA MIC… thank you so much for these tips.

  3. Jerod M says

    People complaining about the price of the camera forget that they spent $1000+ on their iPhone or Android phones. Those cameras work plenty fine.

  4. ian karbaron says

    Great vid, thanks. Would you recommend a Windows or Mac for editing? Thanks

  5. Roberto Bracamontes says

    yall got $1000 + phones, but complain about a $700 cameral that can make you money.

  6. The Life Base says

    dont spend so much money people. the people watch in 13 inch laptop or little tiny smartphones. you can great videos make video with dji osmo pocket which is that: https://amzn.to/2GyvXvO i prefer that because of the run and gun logic is better for youtube. you dont make movies (also you can btw but its not the topic :d)

    or you can run with this https://amzn.to/2GyvXvO or this https://amzn.to/2VjWjK8 or many option. actually if i were newbie of that, i start with a smartphone. dont get richer the companies 😀 get richer yourself. muj.

  7. Brian Armstrong says

    I can't see why you could not do the same thing with a good webcam and a stand alone mic. I use screencast omatic to create my videos with a Logetech webcam and a Blue mic. seems your doing all your videos inside any way.

  8. A fantastic video. So informative..

  9. Brandon J Thompson says

  10. Garden Makeover says

    WOW, how about a video using cheap equipment for us millions of people out here who don't have 700 dollars to spend on just a camera? Much less for tripod, wireless mic, ect

  11. housecat442 says

  12. Wowifying says

    Can anybody recommend a good external mic for a GoPro Hero 5?

  13. hypnosiscenter nyc says

  14. ROBBER o says

    I know what camera to buy because of you.

  15. Joshua C says

    Misleading title for a Canon commercial. "We recently partnered with" = Canon paid us to make this video promoting their product.

  16. Lee Duffield says

  19. brian dixon says

    Hi Sean-I am a beginning Youtuber and considering a camera. Cannon M50 or Panasonic Lumix G7? Thanks for all your super helpful video and tips!

  20. Kai Christianson says

    love your chanel

  21. 90s Bball Cards says

    I’m looking into a better tripod as well as lighting. Maybe I’ll go with the tripod u showed in the office. Also looking into logging. Maybe a diffused ring light.

  22. JD Donahue says

    Really? Sponsored by Canon M50.. and it just happens to be the best camera for youtube?

  23. FreakzRitual says

    I just purchased a gx7 mark ii but I think I'm going too return it because I dont have the shoe or the mic jack

  24. Scott Douglas says

    i want free v-buck
    🙂

  25. Spike says

    Sell out and I almost subscribed before I heard it was $700

  26. Bee Irakabaho says

    Most people are complaining about the price but… there's no such thing as CHEAP cameras. I mean, you may get one but the quality won't be as great, and just because you are starting, doesn't mean you can't invest yet — take the time to save up before you start your channel (take that time to think about ideas of videos etc) and use your phone for practice. But I still believe, as a beginner myself, that I want quality videos to attract the most traffic on my channel as I start.

  27. Escape Adventures says

    How does this compare to the Nikon D5300 or D5500, please advise 😀

  28. Escape Adventures says

    Love the mic shot after the books, I need this setup. Ahhhh please let me get this :|||||||

  29. Escape Adventures says

    Dude, you are awesome 😀 I'm pretty sure we would be good friends. I've learned alot from you. I'm looking to get a camera for my outdoor adventures 🙂 I don't know what to buy 😐

  30. Steve says

    So what is the difference between cameras for 'You Tube' and cameras to show on your own TV set where the videos are not intended to go on-line?

  31. butcher bob can cook says
