Personally have no interest in this camera but I came to learn about this camera from Ken Rockwell. I have been learning from Ken since 2003! Thanks Ken!
Me too!
The R10 is a much better camera for those that know what to do with more buttons and 2 dials, a larger grip, a joystick (insane, at that price point!) etc.
Thank you!!!
@@KenRockwellTV l love to see you back!!!
Me too...I learn from Ken Rockwell ...When it comes of image quality nobody beat the Canon 5D classic...The color rendering is way better than todays cameras....
I loved your RUclips content over the past couple years! Glad to see you’re okay and back at it, I’ve kept up with your text reviews but wished they had a video accompaniment as they’re a lot of fun. Can’t wait to see what you do next!
Thank you! I keep YT and my website separate. The website is always the newest, most complete and updated continuously. YT is just for fun. That’s why I always link back to my site from my videos for people who care about the most detailed information, while I don’t link to YT. Thus always check my site news at www.kenrockwell.com/tech/00-new-today.htm as well as YT at KenRockwell.TV thanks!!!!
Wishing you a full recovery for your arm! Really liked the live streams you did in the past!
Thank you so much!! My arm’s feeling much better even though I’m not cleared to work out yet. As you can see I’m back at work.
Great to see another video from you, Ken. I would love to see some 35mm/film content on here, that would be excellent. Looking forward to seeing more.
Some day. YT is just for fun. I have loads of 35mm reviews and practical guides at KenRockwell.com Thanks!
Love reading articles on your website, Ken! Really enjoyed the pieces on simplicity, film and what makes a great photo. Got back to film because of your work. Now my most treasured photos were all shot on film while out with only one lens. Magic!
Cool, huh? Thanks for the compliments and taking the time to write!
@@KenRockwellTV Thank you for a great website! Cheers!
Seems like a pretty nice small camera! Thanks for the unboxing Ken!
Can’t wait to try it. Thanks!
Love Ken’s reviews!
Thanks Harry!!!
Absolutely love your energy
Thank you!!!!
Welcome back. I missed you on RUclips
Thanks! Broke my arm and had to recuperate past few months. Much better content on the way.
always great content on this channel
Thank you!!!!
Glad to see you in action again, Ken
Me too! Thank you so much!
I missed your videos. Keep'em coming =)
Thank you! Will do!
Ken, I really enjoy you videos and written reviews, especially the old 35mm film camera reviews. You should do some old camera reviews on your youtube channel. People would love that. More young people are getting into the 35mm film photography movement, the should have a good teacher.
Planning on it. Thanks!!!
IVE BEEN WAITING FOR A NEW VIDEO FROM YOU :D
There you go!!!!
He's back!
Oh yeah! Thanks!!!
Is there a godox trigger that can work on that new shoe
Thanks for another great video. I am interested your thoughts on this camera vs the Nikon Z50 (maybe in the next video!).
I still need to review the my R50; I’ve spent the last month on the OM-1 and have to get that done first. R50 is a couple of years newer and definitely much lighter than Z50. Thanks!
Thanks Ken!@@KenRockwellTV
04:42 in r10 unfortunatelly there is not a simple spring mechanism in battery lid. but now I noticed that r50 has it.
Thanks!
Ken, congratulations for such a great review! I have a Nikon D5100 for 12 years already and wanted to do an upgrade to something smaller and modern especially for travel pictures, portraits and my kids doing sports like skateboarding. I am seeing good offers for the M200 (that was replaced by series R) and a reasonable price (almost double) for the R50, with the RF-S 18-45mm + RF-S 55-210mm. What out of those 2 do you believe is a better investment? (Probably, just like my D5100, I will stick with it for a good while). And if you would go for the R50, are those lenses good options or I should look in more detail into other available options? (Like in my Nikon, I love the 35mm for portraits.)
M200 is an obsolete system. R50 is new and superb. This video was just an unboxing, here’s the full review with sample photos check it out! www.kenrockwell.com/canon/eos-r/r50.htm
And as I suggest at my review, having the RF-S 18-150mm is worlds better than the two lens combo since you don’t have to swap lenses and miss photos, just a twist of the zoom goes from wide to tele www.kenrockwell.com/canon/eos-r/lenses/18-150mm.htm
@@KenRockwellTV, thanks for your kindness in replying to my question. Great review article on the R50 and indeed the 18-150 seems to get the job done, very well. I will look after a R50 body sales only or a combo with that lens.
Hey Ken!! Where ya been? I'm looking forward to more fine content from you! 🙂
Had a broken arm. Back now! Thanks!
@@KenRockwellTV OUCH!! I'm sorry to hear that. I hope recover was good and not too much pain and aggravation. I'll be seeing you around on YT. Take care my friend!!
Do you still use film cameras? If so which on is your favorite?
No. Stopped around 2015 as digital is so much better technically and logistically. Hasselblad 6x6 is my favorite today www.kenrockwell.com/hasselblad/index.htm
Greetings! My fellow fixed screen enjoyers.
Thanks!
Have you done a review on the Tokina 11-16mm CF 2019? I know you've done one on the old 2012 version.
Not yet, see here for all my tokina reviews www.kenrockwell.com/tokina/ Thanks!
@@KenRockwellTV Do you plan to out of curiosity?
Love to review it, but there’s so many other things I tend to doubt I’ll get to it anytime soon.
Heya Ken, I'm just wondering, do you know if these are good for wildlife?
Sigma 50-500mm F/4.5-6.3 OS HSM (£280-330) (Heard this one is sharper over the 150-500)
Sigma 150-500mm F/5-6.3 OS HSM (£300-330)
Tamron 200-500mm F/5-6.3 (£300)
All of these are around the £300 mark used, and are significantly cheaper to the Sigma 150-600mm, Nikon 200-500mm, and Tamron G2 150-600mm, all of which range from £600 to £800.
I have a Nikon D3400, with my current wildlife lens being an AF-P DX 70-300mm VR
I never buy the junk brands; they don’t hold up long term. I use my EF 100-400 L II and whatever EF extenders I need.
@@KenRockwellTV By junk brands, do you mean third party ones in general or just these cheaper ultra telephotos?
Also, will you be doing a full review on the new Z 180-600mm?
@@striderwhiston9897 A junk brand is any brand other than the camera maker. Retail stores love to push these on the unsuspecting as they make much higher profit margins on the junk brands. If money matters I always buy a used camera brand lens. Future problems with junk brands is potential incompatibility with whatever new camera you buy a few years from now. Thanks!
@@KenRockwellTV I see, thank you
How do you make still shots look so good in your videos?
See www.kenrockwell.com/tech.htm for over 50 years of personal experience in serious shooting. I’m always trying to improve. This is an art; cameras don’t take pictures by themselves anymore than a paintbrush works on its own; they are but tools in our hands. See my articles at that link for what I’ve learned that helps me take better pictures. Thanks for the complements!
@@KenRockwellTV Thanks. I’ve been following your site since 2007. Love it. My question is not about how to take great looking photographs but rather, how do you make photographs look good when you use them in a video? Thanks :)
Wow, didn't knew the fact about Taiwan that stuff will be built more precisely and have 3 times more costs compared to China
Of course it all depends on many factors. Thanks!
@KenRockwellTV I’m afraid I have fallen into thinking better camera better image ! Help me !
I currently own a Nikon D800 and cannot stop thinking about buying a Sony A6000 series.
Talk me down !
Forget Sony. Ergonomics are terrible, and I don’t like the colors anywhere near as much as nikon or Canon. If you get one, be sure to get it from an approved source at www.kenrockwell.com/links.htm#stores so you can return it if you hate it. D800 like all FX DSLRs works wonderfully well with Nikons greatest lenses: the AI-s manual focus ones. If you want to play with cameras, instead treat yourself to these manual focus lenses and you’ll know what nikon was all about. www.kenrockwell.com/nikon/nikkor.htm#mf
@@KenRockwellTVmany thanks for the reply and recommendations it is much appreciated!
Please review Canon R8, as soon as possible😂
Mine’s on order, but I have an OM SYSTEM OM-1 and the R50 to review first. So many great new cameras! Thanks for your patience. As you know it’s just me here, not a team of generics. Thanks !
opinions about T8i vs r50 with a SCT telescope?
I’d go R50 so long as you have a way to get focus. In low light Mirrorless cameras start to lose it and not be able to focus manually since it’s harder and harder to see a live image. Otherwise the electronic shutter of the z50 should be a big win. Thanks!
Thanks, after much obsessive back and forth regarding which camera. I decided to just stick with cell phone imaging. Living in Los Angeles I only see 5 or 6 stars, and 2 of them are helicopters. With a 9.25 scope I don't get out of the city very much so investing in a DSLR doesn't make sense. Great channel.
This camera photography can be taken?
Yes, it can. Thanks!
I really don't want to annoy you with that and I think you already know about it.... But what do you say about your profile picture being used on a mysterious website???
What mysterious website?
This should be the successor to the M50. However, if you have the m50, and the superb 32mm 1.4 lens, there is almost no reason to jump up into the RF line (apsc) until they port that lens over.
The M cameras perform just fine, and it makes no sense to me why they did not just port their existing lens formulas from the M exactly over to this cam. For the price and size, the M lenses are excellent performers, and there ain't nothing wrong with the 24mp and 32mp M sensors.
Thanks for the excellent reviews as always.
Thanks!
Crikey, that is small. Could be tempted by the R10 with RF 18-150mm and RF 100-400mm. I have the Sony RX10 iv which is mighty versatile - I guess the only thing to do is to buy an R10 and compare handling and output. Following your review, I bought a Canon 90D earlier this year. Beautifully made and a delight to use but I detested the noise and multiple lenses so sold it.
I greatly prefer the images for better real world color rendition in the Canon over Sony. Ditto for handling.
@@KenRockwellTV In the end I realised that I was suffering from gear acquisition syndrome. Certainly Canon is super but I'd need 100-400mm too and probably 1.4x and 2x multipliers and it never hurts to have a 50mm and/or 35mm. Used RX10 iv are now virtually throw-away money. PhotoLab sorts images nicely. Tried Radiant Photo and Topaz, prefer DxO.
R50 or ZVE10 or a6400??
I’d go R50 every time. Sony has horrible ergonomics and I prefer the colors on Canon
Hi Ken Rockwell, lets admit you have a problem with affiliate links. I recently *tried* to browse your website and found every link is an affiliate link, so much so that B&H started blocking me with the 'press and hold bot check'. Yes, every link to your review seemingly was an affiliate link, and B&H assumed I was a stupid bot to try and click SOOO many times for one simple review in 5 minutes.
I do like your honest reviews, but you are TOO honest about wanting a piece of the purchase pie that your site is no longer navigable.
When I don’t have a product yet I link to somewhere objective you can read all about it. When I get my review written then I do a global search and replace to my own review. So many new things come out it’s hard to keep up - especially when I’m behind this year having had a broken arm which it still healing. Thanks!
6:12👈 Look at that… I love this iPhone?🤔🤔🤔🙄
I think Ken is referring to the impressingly quick focusing of the iPhone he is using to record his videos.
@@tupolewposting2733 Oh… Thanks for clearing!! Regards!!
Exactly. I use iPhone for all video shooting. Thanks!
@@KenRockwellTV Hey Ken, thanks a lot man. I love your website. I always refer it before buying any new lenses or any camera!
That was a while.
Had a broken arm in January and otherwise was out shooting this fall, photos at www.kenrockwell.com/trips/2022-10-yosemite/index.htm thanks!!!
@@KenRockwellTV sorry to hear that
to me the hotshoe is a deal breaker, its a minolta level of stupidity, it'd be easy to add the extra contacts to the prior hotshoe.
(back in the day, minolta could have ruled the roost, they had a 2 year jump on canon, insane tech and people forget there was huge anger against canon changing its mount, the t90 having such a short run, the ef line didnt bed in straight away, idiot things in 1987 like minolta changing the hotshoe, cost them first place and second palce and ultimatly cost them in the end their company, is canon going down the same idiot coperate anti consumer street)
this is the entry price point for me, so to canon this and the anti third party lens nonsence, means when i go mirror less, my canon kit will be sold to go with another brand, other wise, this camera looks brillant
My R50 has a free built-in flash, so I don't whine when it has only there new shoe. Thanks!
