Well, I feel like a bit of a nob. Talking to Ry today and he asks, "How you do like the eye-tracking?" DOH!
The mic has the +20db because Canon cameras don't have great audio options, but to get the best out of that mic you turn on +20db and then turn the audio down in your camera's audio menu. Its made so you don't have static in your quiet moments.
Your new camera is brighter, clearer, and makes you look thinner, Russell.
I swear it took TEN YEARS off my clothes.
I kinda like the yellow tinge that the old camera had over the entire picture, but that's maybe just me :P
The new one's video quality is a lot crisper and sharper for sure though. Oh and the tracking/focus is wayy better
The focus and resolution on the new camera was much better. The color saturation is higher on the old camera which can be good in some situations. Overall great upgrade. Now you need a gimble for smooth motion shots.
I think it's just a setting on the old camera that is making it saturated like that. You know like when you set your TV to "vivid"? Something like that.
The new camera is definitely way better, especially on the indoor shots. A little brightness adjustment and you should be good to go :)
Agreed, thanks Tom.
The technology changes so fast. It's fun getting a new camera and seeing the difference.
It really seems like the T8i blows all the highlights out and it seems a bit washed out where the T5i is a lot more colorful, not in a bad way!
This is my first video of yours I've seen and I dig it.
Hi Russell, The new camera is a lot cleaner and better focused. I would suggest you get some light reflectors to better balance the brightness. I used to just use cheap white bristol board from the dollar store. It will likely help balance the light and focus of both you and the pond behind you when doing the porch talks. I look forward to seeing you experiment with the new gear.
Great video Russ. Very interesting and well done. My vote is definitely for the new camera!
Thanks Rick! See you Friday!
The new camera is def better.
I agree, Janet!
Wow! Double the Russell double the.... fun?? Great choice on cameras Russell!
Double the drinking Friday night!
UGH I have that autofocus issue with my Panasonic too. That's part of the reason I use my phone more often! Crazy to see the side-by-side, new camera kicks ass.
Which one do you have?
@@HerEcolife Panasonic Lumix FZ1000
@@HerEcolife But it could be that I don't know wtf I'm doing haha.
@@CabinDweller lol I'm looking into the g85
I think a lot of people go from phone to fancy camera, then go back again because the new video looks like shit. But a lot of it is just getting the settings just right.
Hey Russell, good choice on choosing your new T8l ! Its clearer, cleaner, more precise on the detail. Love it ! Thanks for always thinking about us and how you present your cabin, yourself and that gorgeous view!! Liz
The new camera is awesome. I loved the way you showed us the comparisons, that was pretty cool and informative.
I thought so too. Though you gotta watch closely. Thanks Tina.
Great breakdown. I'm looking to get a camera to get my channel going, so this was really helpful.
Hey Jet, I wish I was more knowledgeable and could give some advice, but I know nothing, really. I just know that bad auto focus sucks.
@@RaspberryRockOffGridCabin lol We all live and learn. At least you are letting us in on the process of both. 👍
The images from the T8i are REALLY sharp! That watermelon looked like I could touch it! I have the T7i and I have not even scratched the surface of it, my last video was the best images I have ever shot though so I will wait to upgrade hahahha
I have no idea what differences there are between the T7I and T8I. How is the auto-focus?
@@RaspberryRockOffGridCabin for my uses excellent! I am pretty new to the whole camera thing though so I will need to try the different settings you showed here.
Hi Russel. Camera came fast! Fun watch two of you,you did a nice job a-b-ing the cameras.
Thanks Miri!
I use a 22mm pancake lens with my canon and it's pretty good at keeping you and your background in decent focus. If you do a lot of low light filming, canon do a 32mm F/1,2 lens which would give you decent results.
My lenses are not the best. But I have a hard time spending $1k on a lens.
new cam is sharper and I see the glow from the old one. You may have more challenges with light with the new cam.
Gordon one thing I realized is that when the new camera has its focus, it tries to get the proper light on that thing that is in focus, which is interesting.
Oh yea nice upgrade! So much clearer- thanks 😊
Thanks Baby!
The new camera is so clear and sharp.
It is nice, Cecilia.
New cam much better at auto focus, old one is much more warm with color. May just be settings. Anyway now you have two cameras with zoom. Game changer. Have fun testing the new camera. P.S. Got the invite for the live sometime the next morning.
Hey SKip, I gotta find that setting on the old camera. Will bug me until I figure out what's going on.
Everything was Greek to me I just use my camera on my phone to take videos lol. I've never had any other kind of camera so seeing the side by side was interesting, whit I didn't like on your new camera was that white mode it just bleaches out your background so bright it's hard on the eyes to watch where the old camera doesn't do that, you can see you and the background, but your more colorful and fuzzy. Much love from So.Cal💟
The part at the end where I was on the deck talking, usually I just leave myself really dark so you can see the background. I could go either way on that. Do you want to see me or do you want to see the background?
Humm interesting question, and since I'm greedy I want to see both! But if I have to choose one, then Russell I'd rather see you when you talking to the camera, but I still like to see the beautiful area where you live in the background, every now and again something interesting walks or flys by. 😄
hello russell wow i love the new canon T 8 I rebel and yes i see why you bought this new camera what a huge difference between the cannon T 5 I and the new one T 8 I seeing both shots you can really tell and your so right on the focus what a big difference in all the shots you showed the new one is way more clearer i think and it really focuses way better you can see you the way you want us to see you in your video awesome russell my friend thanks for this video i enjoyed seeing the new canon camera and nice watermelon to so take care for now and stay safe out there until your next video i say bye for now p.s with the new canon camera it will really show your property and scenery so beautiful .from your good ontario,friend Randy.
Russel, the new camera is more in focus on YOU but, the background is blurred out? man what a nightmare... camera crazyness....wow...
Hey Russell, there must be something in the air, I just bought a new camera as well. I bought a Nikon B500 with a HD 40x zoom and I really like it. Your camera makes things brighter and clearer. Hope it serves you well.
Cool John, hope yours serves you well.
@@RaspberryRockOffGridCabin Thanks Russell
I have a Eos-1d mark 3,a EOS 5D Mark III, 2 Eos T2i and I have been trying out the Eos RA.but my fav is the T2i for some reason.
Nice.
WOW! That was an awesome comparison! So true about the colors in the old camera; they did look saturated (but beautiful). So, which camera showed the colors closest to how your eye sees them in reality? Thank you for this- so informative! Greatly appreciated.
Thanks Destiny. The T5I showed the colours closer than the T8I. But a lot of filmmakers go for that plain look in the recording, then colour them up properly in post. I need to play with it.
@@RaspberryRockOffGridCabin Thank you, Russell.
Hey Russell ya the new camera focuses better for sure
I like the colour of the old one though? Quite a difference!
Recording by itself will look great though 👌
Thanks Karen. Maybe for Friday's video I'll do some properly coloured video.
@@RaspberryRockOffGridCabin Oh ok. Maybe the new one was the true colour? Not sure? Look forward to it
Excellent review. Love the new camera.
Thanks Mike!
Yup... All things crisper, color more natural.
Nice, Russell!
Thanks DAve!
Yup we'll looking at that tripod I need new equipment bad.
You eventually build up an equipment store.
just check amazon, for an affordable Carbon fiber tripod, I used a Neewer Carbon fiber tripod for ages it works good for the price, only thing I didnt like was the quick shoe plate isn't as quick as some of the tripods where I just clicked in (instead of screwing in to tighten like the neewer ) get the 72.5" model best bang for your buck and if your tall like me you'll enjoy it haha :)
Wow the new is more natural color much better and more crisper 👍🏻👍🏻
Just makes think just how incredible our eyes are ..they do everything a camera cant in a nano second...pure mind blowing miracles
Yeah that's exactly why it will never be perfect.
Sooo true.
@@Tinkerlooful 😊👀👀
so, bottom line is that the old camera was not cutting it when city girl was there, and.........well.........you know......... and now the new camera keeps up better with focusing/tracking in low light conditions. Good investment. Carry on!
i like the T8I its much clearer
Me too.
Great upgrade Russell!!
Thanks Doug!
Thanks. A camera users opinion on cameras are the best opinions on cameras. I'll keep watching all your videos if it helps improve the videos. Hope to be there Friday. Later.
Thanks for doing this.. may consider T8i later on
Yesss russ! Just what I need after a long day/night at work! 👍🍻🇬🇧
Ah and then you got a camera video. Hope it didn't disappoint too much.
@@RaspberryRockOffGridCabin awesome to see the difference in both the cameras mate, any videos from raspberry rocks interesting stuff! 👍😜😂
Rebel 8 har true colours and higher resolution. Looks so much better. Overall the new one performs better and i think you will find it more fulfilling to work with. Quality has hereby gon up! :) And oh! Keep the new stnd, when you get used to it, you don't ever want to be without it!
Russ, nice upgrade!
Thanks Rod!
Truth, cheers!
excellent change and proved how valuable the upgrade was.
That Rebel T8i is nice!! 👍🤠👏
I like it too, thanks Rick!
Well one has a 1080p 18mp sensor (T5i) The other has a 4K 24mp Sensor (T8i) so there will be a difference. However I get what you are saying.
nice upgrade
Thanks Dopey
Great video Russ.
Rusell i blame you messing about with cameras i just got my first drone no idea how to use it yet my pond is about 7ft long tho like you what th hell was i thinking
LOL be careful with your new drone. You might want to take it to an empty field to play with it.
@@RaspberryRockOffGridCabin ime going to i trust drones but not me lol
The old camera is a lot more forgiving though. Like Robert Redford filming with gauze...
Good work. You must have put in overtime doing all that editing. What editing software do you use?
It did take me a LONG TIME to edit this one. I use a really old version of adobe premiere.
Your new camera seems to give a better overall picture but considering I just use my phone what do I know. 😉 I would be happy with the old one....
Opening made me feel like I used to when seeing double at the end of RR booxfest...
Hi Russell, I'm a part-time landscape and ocean photographer. I've been doing this for just a few years. My first camera was the T5i. It performed really well as a learning camera and held up real nice as I took it everywhere, especially the ocean. Until one day, during a Pacific storm that had the surf up to 20 feet, I got hit by a rogue wave that took me out some. I survived, but the camera became a paperweight. Have to say the SD card survived and the photos are killer. I then switched to a Nikon D750 FX camera. That switch changed my life and I do not play I dare ya with the ocean any longer. Your switch to the T8i looks really great for what you use it for there. It is much clearer and the focus was spot on with your movements. What kind of Go Pro do you have?
I have the GoPro 8 and it’s buggy as hell
Your video is amazing. Can you perhaps do a comparison for zoom telephoto shooting . I am thinking whether to buy T5/6i or T8i for shooting soccer games.
I will say it,was really entertaining watching,this video. It kinna,reminded me of,my self lol
russel the colures ar richer on the old camera, ine sticking with my nikon d5200 tho les faffing on setup
The colours are more saturated, for sure. I gotta figure out what setting is doing that.
I will let you get back to this video iiiiieuuuueuuuuu lol You crack me up.
I have a crack team of editors to help me do that fancy editing.
I need to get me one of those.
I don't know enough about cameras to recommend it! But good luck!
T81 clearer.
Hi Josephine!
@@RaspberryRockOffGridCabin Hi Russ how you doing there in the cabin?
The new camera seems to be less in focus in the background. Excellent focus on you.
The T81 is way much clearer
I agree, Tom.
Looking good 👍
Next step, color grading.
russ the old camera ... please give a coookie from the frezzer it may help
To the camera? That would be weird.
Oh yeah its better in low light
Nice!
Thanks Cheryl
Definitely the new camera hands down! Yaaaaay! Russell 👌👌👌
The new one has excellent focus. However, if I'm honest, going by your comparisons, the colours on your new one seems not to natural. Kind of a bit washed out.
With the outside shots of landscape in bright sun the new one gives a blown sky effect which is a shame. Also the colours are not so vivid.
Sorry, just my opinion
Russell you need a helper... ill be Robin to your Batman, I got an atv too. I'm good with plants too😎
Russell, my former Uk and US colleagues were not always enthusiastic when, as an old German senior engineer, I quickly got to the heart of all the discussions.
Your old camera is just set up for your make-up. And with the new camera, yes - you still have to do something. -
Russell it is actually completely unimportant, because it does not improve your life or bring you anything, except that you can better judge when your hair is getting too long. - On the head -
Best regards from Frankfurt, stay healthy.
I have to get a set of stereo lens then I could see ya in 3D lolololol
Cool.
T5 have nice colors
Why t8i look washed ?
Help me please !
A cheap tablet can be plugged into most cameras for an external monitor giving you a bigger image to see what it is doing or you can get a long cable to hook it to a phone you can hold onto to see. Other option would be to get yourself a cutout of yourself to put into the shot when setting up.
The good thing about having a cutout of yourself is you can always use it for pranks or simply leave it looking out a hard to get to window when you don't need it.
Rather then setting up tripods for the kitchen and deck shots why not just do an overhead track with arm to mount the camera to? ruclips.net/video/tiHoWwuTM4U/видео.html he is making most of it out of plywood with some common hardware tossed in. Add an extra joint for the slope of the roof over the deck and it should still make a great place to film from and no tripod to work around/the dogs to knock into. Would still need the tripod for the normal outdoor shots but the spots inside or on the deck you setup often would be fast to set back up each time you need them.
I've thought about getting an external monitor, but the idea of adding a bunch of crap to the setup makes me not want to. I want to try and keep the setup somewhat simple. Also, an overhead track... no.
Hey totally off this subject but I didn’t know where to send u this link? I came across a channel and saw they were using a “ZODI Outback Gear Extreme SC Hot Shower” it’s pretty nice thought you guys might wanna check it out
Cheers kb
I like the old cam outside and the new one inside, which makes my comment useless, lol. BUT.... I liked you dragging the screen better. Use the cam that is easier, and more fun. Another channel I watch, they use this ridiculously expensive cam, and it just lags constantly. I just don't care about 4k crap, I care about the content.
I like doing my own hair because one part come out round and the other square????
A little clumpy, but who cares, eh?
New camera way better.
Agreed, thanks Steve.
Love it...im a Nikon guy but thats much better video than the old girl.
Just found ur great channel Russel and sub’d
THanks TI0
color seam off to ne a other i like the older one better
for color
Yeah I gotta figure out why that happened.
Very sharp image with new. The new camera picks up your true whiteness. You need to adj the brightness level just a tad. When looking across the pond it just get blown out with whiteness. Can't wait to see you on a walk or on trails with it. And Alicia will be lookin so fine with this new one. Congrats
Now if you can just get your live feeds to speed up abit all my problems with your videos will be solved. I can NOT converse with you when you are 15 minutes behind in conversation. GRRRRR
Ah sorry Patti, the live streams are what they are. Not much I can do about that without just skipping most of the comments.
@@RaspberryRockOffGridCabin I hope someday the steaming gets better for you. Most live streams I harass just skip some comments. It is a lot of people all at one time to chat with. But I do enjoy your videos!
@@pattiwhite9575 You harass them? LOL. Maybe when we get 1000's of near-earth satellites...
new camera nice
Thanks Victor!
The t8 is so clean.
Dank U voor deze video :-) 👍
how much was the camera?
Chuck it was $1200cad.
Awesome 👍🏾
Hey Super Super Raza!
Does the T8i have dual pixel auto focus ? I keep reading where some say it doesn't ?
I believe it does. The auto-focus is amazing, at any rate.
I would had sell the t5i and got me a 90d instead of the t8i
oh my
Can you go back to the old camera look better when your face was not focus laugh out loud the new cameras what I liked about it was your face was focused plus the trees in the background looks good mate
LOL David it's very true, my face looks better out of focus.
Neat review.
You need an Eric Andrea!!
I prefer the cannon rebel images...😨
hey , russell has a twin ! booxefest times two....lol
That's funny. Now I can drink twice as much!
Hey i'll sell you a nice Lens for your camera (cheap) ;) f/2.8 28-75 it was my go-to for photography/video ( did it professionally for one of canadas largest newspapers ) just moved to ON so im not tooooo far from you like 5-6hrs lol
Sure, if you like. Why don't you use it anymore?
@@RaspberryRockOffGridCabin , No longer work for BlackPress, Moved to Ontario earlier this month, bought property in an unorganized township , going to build an offgrid community (with other folks). Sooo because I left BP I sold off all my equipment only thing I had left was this lens, that I couldn't sell before I moved. Only took what I could fit in my car and did my 5 day journey across the country lol. if your contact email is your ABOUT I'll shoot you an email
T8 looks great
Like new camera and you got a hair cut I see.
I got several hairs cut! I was just grabbing clumps and cutting. Works!
But you are better looking with the old camera LOL
It's very true.
Wow! Talk about dizzying confusion. Within five minutes I lost it.
PLEASE DON'T DO THIS ANYMORE.
Hey Russ , txt me . Heading to my camp friday for a work weekend with the boys. Maybe be we could meet up before hand.
Tim, next weekend is not good for me, I've got friends coming for the weekend.
@@RaspberryRockOffGridCabin . No problem , You have my cell # txt me when it works for you .
Wow with the new camera I just realized you must live off grid.. lmao.. just kidding.. the new one is much more crisp.. I like.. ☮️
