Olympus are SO underrated. Weather sealing, ibis, touch screen... so many features that are more premium except for the sensor size. Last time I checked the glass wasn't as affordable as I thought though.
Sensor size has pros and cons. One big advantage is smaller lens sizes. I have an (even) older Olympus as a second camera and my main camera is m43 as well. I recently bought the Peak Design 3 litre sling and I fit the two cameras and four lenses in it - two primes, two zooms. It's advertised for one camera and two smaller lenses
The images shared were processed via a preset and shouldn't be used to evaluate the image quality of the camera. The Olympus M1 is a very good camera and takes excellent images.
I loved hearing you talk glowingly about the Nikon D7100. I shoot with a Z8 and D850. The D7100 has been a stout backup. If an innate photograph is extraordinary, the D7100 will not diminish it.
What matters the most is what system you want to buy into and what is the upgrade path. Canon, NIkon, Sony, Olympus, Fuji, are all good...And all are leaning into "content creation" over "art" these days too.
I added the G100 to my MFT cameras last year, got a great deal on a brand new one with the tiny kit lens. I really like it for how light and compact it is and it’s perfect for daytime hikes. Lack of IBIS means I still take the GX80 out more, but for well lit situations where you want small and light the G100 is perfect.
The Fuji X-T20 is also around 300 bucks on ebay. Got mine in mint condition with the great 18-55 premium kit lens for 600€. Upgraded from a Sony alpha a6000.
Not $300 in the US, anyway. Starts at just about $600. Used Fuji prices have gotten way out of hand, and the cameras aren't worth nearly as much as they're being listed for, as long as you want to use them for more than just TikTok neck jewelry.
Another benefit of the Nikon D7100 is it has the sprocket that old Nikon autofocus lenses require as they don’t have built-in autofocus motors. I think the D7200 was the last enthusiast Nikon DSLR to include that sprocket. I don’t know when or if it was removed on higher end bodies.
D7500 was the one that removed everything, because the D500 had arrived before it and took the flagship spotlight. So having those features would've put the D7500 way too close to it.
The NEX-6 was my only mirrorless camera for 9 years! Great option where “budget” doesn’t mean “basic”. My mini-review and some tips: PROS: Light and durable! This is all magnesium - many a6*** models use more plastic. Lovely controls and ergonomics Shoots good RAW. PDAF and basic face detection. Nice viewfinder and hood even though resolution is low. CONS: “W” battery life is just OK. High ISO noise looks bad. Buttons not super customizable Best video quality is in AVCHD format (don’t buy this for video.) Picky about USB chargers Loud shutter TIPS: Take advantage of Sony’s older OSS lenses! 16MP doesn’t require 2024 sharpness. Kit lens still not great. 50mm 1.8 OSS is excellent wide open. Make sure the grey control wheel (under PASM knob) functions correctly.
I recently got a good as new Samsung NX300 with the 16-50mm powerzoom lens and I really enjoy it. A fun little snapper and relatively compact and I like colours this samsung produces! Nice to mix it up with my Olympus EM5 Mark II and Lumix LX100 which are great to use with their great tactile controls but sometimes it's nice to have something as basic as the NX300.
That's because they work with youtube channels to stir up sells. After they get a channel to mention their store and cameras, they raise the prices. I've been watching this for years.
I, myself, own a Fuji x-t20, is around 400-450 euros, the camera works great and is extremely fun to shoot if you want a more tactile experience (I consider that the results are not the only important thing in photography, enjoying the process is a huge part of it). Let's not forget about the fuji film simulations, the colors are gorgeous, I mainly shoot jpegs. The lenses, I think are a bit more expensive than sony or canon ones (didn't do a lot of research on this topic)
Ever since I have been using a shift lens with an adapter that moves the sensor behind the lens but not the lens, my panorama image always stitch together seamlessly.
The DR on the D7100 was crippled by the banding caused by the Toshiba sensor. I had one, and the next camera I bought was literally the NEX-6. Was amazed by how much better the DR was on it than the D7100. AF was also way more reliable, not having to fine tune lenses just to get them to be usable. NEX-6 worked perfectly with any and every lens from day one. One of the biggest reasons I switched to mirrorless a couple of years later.
I do agree that mirrorless system is much more dependable to get focus spot on at all distances. Banding is only a problem at really high isos which I avoid though. Hmm food for thought. I have a nikon Z6 for general purpose use, wish I could have afforded a Z7.
I'm currently using my Lumix G-81 as I'm starting to get back into video and photography - even though I'm constantly fighting the thoughts that I'm too late being almost 26 right now - i surely want to follow my passion and someday make a living from doing videography
If you use the camera for wildlife or sports, M43 is definitely worth considering because the combo weigh much less and the lenses are more affordable. The trade-off is that you give up some image quality if you pixel peep or crop heavily
I might just be lucky but usually it IS possible to score the a6300 for 300 or around so, if not then you can find the a6000 for under 300 easily, I'd recommend those two over the nex-6
Good video... I would also include the Olympus OMD EM10 mk2, very small and great features.... Also the Olympus EM1, as a professional grade camera has a magnesium body, in camera focus stacking and very cheap accesories like a battery grip, even though I have for more modern cameras it is still the first camera I pick up when going out.
I would also suggest Canon M100, in favor of M3, as M100 is bit newer (its lighter, has DIGIC7 processor, Dual Pixel AF), only downside, is has less dials and grip is not great (but you can get around this by buying from ebay a small silicone hand grip, I did that on mine, and it's perfect)
i use a nikon D5600. apart from the annoying autofocus when using the live view, it is an amazing camera but i do wanna upgrade to a sony a7cii. what do you think?
I think you should only upgrade if what you're using currently is holding you back in some way and a new camera would solve that problem. But the A7CII is a great camera 👌🏻
@@jaughnekow the D5600 is really good for stills. Tom Calton gave you the best advice : don't upgrade if the goal is to have only the shinest toy. For stills, the D5600 is way better than most amateurs could expect
Used Olympus E-M1's used to be available in the UK for under £200 a couple of years ago. I know because I bought one. Now they've much more. Effect of videos like this or have i bought an appreciating asset?
When the g100 first came out I didn't t think much of it. But as it turns out it's actually a pretty decent camera especially for it's size etc. The canon m6 is definitely the better version of the m3 albeit a little more expensive ( not by much tho). But the original M and M2 are actually highly capable cameras as well. Some of my best/favorite work I took, was with the OG eos M and M2. And the best part of those models is that you can add Magic Lamtern to them and unlock the cinema cameras from within that have caused a bit of a mega cult following, that, to this day is still being talked about and improved upon
It's a trash camera filled with way too many artificial limitations. That why it dropped from $750 to $300 in a relatively short time. And even at that price I wouldn't get it as there are better things to spend your money on that a gimped camera like the G100
@@CallMeRabbitzUSVI have you actually used it tho? I felt the same way until I actually tried it. And was pleasantly surprised. At 300 it's a phenomenal deal. There isn't much out there at that price point that is as capable. Is there?

@@Channel-xx8qt GX9's grip is almost nonexistent. It also suffers from the 20MP sensor that has terrible color casts. And add to that it weighs significantly more than the A6000, and the balance of that weight is on the opposite side of the grip, making the camera awkward to hold. A6000's flash is also more powerful.
I loved my Nikon D7100 but it can be difficult to use for sports and wildlife due to the VERY small buffer. Upgrade to the D7200 or D7500 for a better buffer
You can shoot in a smaller cropped RAW format (1.95x) to up the buffer a bit. I think dropping down to compressed and 12-bit helps, too. But yes, D7200 was peak consumer DX, and D7500 was the last D7xxx, though it lost some compatibility and features because the pro D500 existed.
I like DSLRs for that hiRes viewfinder. Fuji cheated me into mirrorless, making me believe autofocus, especially eye detection is better. I bought X-T2, X-T3, X-H2, but the autofocus is not on par with DSLRs!
So if i like two cameras, is there any really practical reason i should prefer apsc over mft? Obviously a larger sensor is "better", but aren't there good lenses available for much cheaper with mft, with mft image quality being pretty acceptable for all but giant enlargements?
Exactly in a month I'm traveling for the first time to Japan... I'm still in awe for the opportunity. I'm looking for a cheap travel camera that can also work in the night (I want some Cyberpunk style pictures). Which one of this cameras could be the best? I'm planning on spending 500 dollars tops. (I also need new outfits haha).
NEX-6 has the best image quality, followed by E-M1.1. I've owned both, and they're both great cameras. To the point that I think I want another of one of them. D7100 has better low light ability, but its DR is hampered by heavy banding. Not even the M3 has it as bad, and Canon was known at the time for their constant banding ruining pictures. D7100 is also absoultely massive compared to the rest, as are its lenses. G100 has weird color casts in the shadows to contend with, so I wouldn't suggest it, either.
waded through this, interesting it ended up with the camera i am trying to replace. i think the camera ( D7200 in my case) is great, but you could have said the D7500 that probably being the last of the line. it is the photographer ( me) that sometimes asks too much. and the lack of a really fast 500 mm equivalent lens.
Under 300, I will get a a6000 instead. No 4k but phenomenal for stills which can be taken at 250$. I got a A6100 for 350$ with kit lens just above 300$ price but I got lucky. A few years and the 6400 can be as well depends where you look from. I came from A7R3 and now trying the A6**** series which is phenomenal form factor and the AF are quite adequate for advance hobbyists alike.
i real love the canon m3 and think its a very underrated camera, but I hesitate in recommending it to a beginner simply because the system is dead and its biggest strength was its size and if you use ef lenses with adapter on m cameras you kill one of the biggest advantages of the system: the size. You still can use one as there are awesome lenses in the m line up but if you upgrade you basically have to start over, which is a bad thing for a beginner on a budget. I like to recommend the m3 to seasoned photographers that look for a cheap smaller camera they can take everywhere.
I've been looking at the Lumix G100 for just indoor video with my setup. Just still debating on pulling the trigger on it. I would use my Lumix GX85 but then I'm tied to the app with no flippy screen. I still do love that camera a lot but a coworker knocked it out of my hand with a cane on accident and now I can't charge batteries internally At least he didn't break it. Though my sister did crack my screen within three weeks of owning it. Had it 6 years now and still going though
Get the g 100 for indoor set up that’s what I do and it has more megapixels and more tech in the g 100 since it’s newer like better colors to say the least gx 85 is good but it’s older and worst than the g 100
@@toxophillus72 don’t you love the G💯 ? It’s so small and has many new features from lumix . Only thing that sucks is obviously stabilization if your not using dual IS or worst with no stabilizer at all , and it crops in also in 4k but less 1080p 60 and if you use a tripod it won’t move at all and can use 1080 p 60 no crop. So I don’t mind really I could get sick shit for a low price out of this camera great bursiness investment if you good with cameras or new to mirrorless cameras like I was coming off a Sony camcorder to this is mind blowing. 🤯 going from auto to manual is nuts still for me

A bit of a clunker. NEX-6 runs circles around it. Even A7 II wasn't much to talk about. A7R II was the first Sony camera that still feels modern today.
Not on MPB they aren't. They've just sold out, but literally last week they had about 5 or 6, all priced under $300. You just have to keep an eye out for them when they come available.
@@TomCalton that was mpb as of the time you published this. I do think that price is on the lower end or representative of models with at least optical damage such as scratched screens etc. Thanks for replying though.
Am I the only one who thought the OM-D pics were overall pretty bad? They didn't look like they were properly focus and the colors, when not shooting in full sun, were really dull.
You can get some great Canon DLSRs for under $300 USD. They have affordable starter lenses too. Mirrorless isn't a good budget pick right now, IMO, because there is just more used DSLR gear out there, and a lot of it is really good. Also, the bleeding edge rich techies and photographers are always trading in the 'old' stuff for the latest. A ton of people are always selling their APS stuff to move up to full frame.
MPB used to be good. So sick of these photography influencers shilling for them. Their quotes are garbage now and generally they downgrade. I had an Olympus 12-40 that was used to record a couple of gigs and they claimed it was “well used”.
Reson people skip m43 cause nowaday : M43 daker 1 stop than crop or 2 ev than ff. And ff/crop camera is much cheaper than in the past. For exp u can get zve10 for 600 usd or a7r2 for 1000 usd used or a72 for 500 usd used. If u buy nikon like d610/d750 or canon 5d3 it even cheaper. In where i live u can buy d610 used for 300 usd. And the iq is so much better. And dslr lens is so cheaper too. 2 . so many good lens and cheap lens for crop. Exp sony or fuji. U have sigma, tamron, samyang. Cheaper u have ttarsian, 7artsian, youngno, tokina. Exp youngno.

PROS:
Light and durable! This is all magnesium - many a6*** models use more plastic.
Lovely controls and ergonomics
Shoots good RAW.
PDAF and basic face detection.
Nice viewfinder and hood even though resolution is low.
CONS:

High ISO noise looks bad.
Buttons not super customizable
Best video quality is in AVCHD format (don’t buy this for video.)
Picky about USB chargers
Loud shutter
TIPS:
Take advantage of Sony’s older OSS lenses! 16MP doesn’t require 2024 sharpness. Kit lens still not great. 50mm 1.8 OSS is excellent wide open.
Make sure the grey control wheel (under PASM knob) functions correctly.

i real love the canon m3 and think its a very underrated camera, but I hesitate in recommending it to a beginner simply because the system is dead and its biggest strength was its size and if you use ef lenses with adapter on m cameras you kill one of the biggest advantages of the system: the size. You still can use one as there are awesome lenses in the m line up but if you upgrade you basically have to start over, which is a bad thing for a beginner on a budget. I like to recommend the m3 to seasoned photographers that look for a cheap smaller camera they can take everywhere.
I've been looking at the Lumix G100 for just indoor video with my setup. Just still debating on pulling the trigger on it. I would use my Lumix GX85 but then I'm tied to the app with no flippy screen. I still do love that camera a lot but a coworker knocked it out of my hand with a cane on accident and now I can't charge batteries internally
At least he didn't break it. Though my sister did crack my screen within three weeks of owning it. Had it 6 years now and still going though
Get the g 100 for indoor set up that’s what I do and it has more megapixels and more tech in the g 100 since it’s newer like better colors to say the least gx 85 is good but it’s older and worst than the g 100
G100D has a great Oled EVF
@@toxophillus72 don’t you love the G💯 ? It’s so small and has many new features from lumix . Only thing that sucks is obviously stabilization if your not using dual IS or worst with no stabilizer at all , and it crops in also in 4k but less 1080p 60 and if you use a tripod it won’t move at all and can use 1080 p 60 no crop. So I don’t mind really I could get sick shit for a low price out of this camera great bursiness investment if you good with cameras or new to mirrorless cameras like I was coming off a Sony camcorder to this is mind blowing. 🤯 going from auto to manual is nuts still for me
Manual works well with Auto ISO, choose whatever SS and F number combo you want, plus you can still use Exposure Compensation.
Just as a matter of interest I have hand held the 14-140 at 14mm 1sec and 140mm at 1/6th not bad for lens only stabilisation. G100D.
Why do youtubers always say "this 100 dollars" or 300 or under 600 dollars camera, when most of the time we won't have it for the same amount of money ?!
It's called "click bait"
@@nickraspberry377 it's never that price, now MPB was running a part time promotion for this camera at $300 but they're all gone right before this video was uploaded
Mostly because a lot of the youtubers who create contents like these are americans and they fully believe they re the only country in the world
@@ct9401 Because if you want to give advice that applies to the whole world you basically can't say anything. And I'm saying this as a person from a third world country by the way. Do you really think he'll look at a camera that he is able to purchase for $300 and think "Well, I can't show this on my channel because people in (insert war-torn / third world country) can't buy this for $300. Bummer". Get real man.
@@ct9401 I'm not saying you're wrong, but I do want to point out that this particular RUclipsr is not American.
Got my NEX 6 for $150 US. Nifty little fella
Mee tooi
Lucky! They're going for near twice as much now.
Dont have any full review of Canon M3
is an nikon d3200 good for a begginer o shoud i buy an nikon d7100 ?
Both would serve you fine starting out. The 7100 was more premium though so if they're the same or similar price I'd go for that.
If you want to get started in photography, get a used a7iii
These cameras are always much more expensive than the quoted prices in these type of videos.
What about sony a7 the firts mirroless from 2013
It doesn't generally fall below $300, so it didn't make it into this lineup unfortunately.
@@TomCalton ok bro thanks
Great image quality, but the AF is atrocious. Would not recommend exept for static subjects
A bit of a clunker. NEX-6 runs circles around it. Even A7 II wasn't much to talk about. A7R II was the first Sony camera that still feels modern today.
9:07 these Canon series have an external evf that can be used on hot shoe
The cheapest g100 is 414 dollars
Not on MPB they aren't. They've just sold out, but literally last week they had about 5 or 6, all priced under $300. You just have to keep an eye out for them when they come available.
@@TomCalton that was mpb as of the time you published this. I do think that price is on the lower end or representative of models with at least optical damage such as scratched screens etc. Thanks for replying though.
😂😂😂 on ebay $299... it so cheap the lumix g100 camera most hated by bloggers.. i found few still new box . I always wonder why was so cheap
The G100 is a good looking little camera but it has the exact same specs as the G7 from 2014
That's why it's so cheap, being so new. Though it does have the newer 20MP sensor, but that's not exactly a benefit.
@@BlueBomberTurbo Why doesn't benefit from the 20MP ?
G100 has 20mp vs g7mp. So à newer sensor and smaller. Don't get me wrong. The g7 is à fine camera.
G7 16mp sensor
Plus better colour science, even better than my G9.
1/500 mechanical shutter speed is a joke on that Lumix G100 😂
Old shutter taken from the GM1/5. Electronic shutter still goes to 1/16,000
Am I the only one who thought the OM-D pics were overall pretty bad? They didn't look like they were properly focus and the colors, when not shooting in full sun, were really dull.
MPB is the real deal btw.
I've just tried a bunch of chip cameras that are in this orice range anymore 😅
review that olympus please
You can get some great Canon DLSRs for under $300 USD. They have affordable starter lenses too.
Mirrorless isn't a good budget pick right now, IMO, because there is just more used DSLR gear out there, and a lot of it is really good. Also, the bleeding edge rich techies and photographers are always trading in the 'old' stuff for the latest. A ton of people are always selling their APS stuff to move up to full frame.
Great video. I love your channel and sense of humor. Thanks.
Looks like the prices doubled and tripled lol. Same for Fuji.
nice 🔥
Love your videos! 😊

22mm f2, not 22mm f2.8
Thanks for the correct - my mistake!
MPB used to be good. So sick of these photography influencers shilling for them. Their quotes are garbage now and generally they downgrade. I had an Olympus 12-40 that was used to record a couple of gigs and they claimed it was “well used”.
wtf is this image ratio?
hmm, i dont like soy nex 6, but sony nex 7 the better
Reson people skip m43 cause nowaday :
M43 daker 1 stop than crop or 2 ev than ff. And ff/crop camera is much cheaper than in the past. For exp u can get zve10 for 600 usd or a7r2 for 1000 usd used or a72 for 500 usd used. If u buy nikon like d610/d750 or canon 5d3 it even cheaper. In where i live u can buy d610 used for 300 usd. And the iq is so much better. And dslr lens is so cheaper too.
2 . so many good lens and cheap lens for crop. Exp sony or fuji. U have sigma, tamron, samyang. Cheaper u have ttarsian, 7artsian, youngno, tokina. Exp youngno. Their cheap 50 1.8 for crop only 110 usd brand new. buy crop camera like nikon z30/zve10 or fuji xt30 with china prime lense is a wise choice than m43 with exspensive lense for most of people. M43 now i think suit for people with special require like 4k film no over heat, ibis for action video. Their ibis is good for vlog but too bad their af suck . m43 vs 1 inch not much diffrent so buying dj pocket 3 for vlog is better than buy expensive g9 + lecia 11 f1.8 with
The video just stopped, was it planned that way?
Yeah. I've decided to cut out the "well, that's it for now" type stuff at the end. No one watches those parts anyway 😅
@@TomCalton some of us does :)
I despise these videos about stuff for certain budget and then they price everything on the used prices of their area. Absolutely useless videos.
This guy only has clickbait videos reviewing old cameras... Unsubscribed.
okay, bye :)
