I agree the footage looks great! Like film. I have a Canon PS A40 & A70, many working Sony point & Shoot cameras from $1.95 to $20. I want to try working with the 640 footage. Was reading you can’t do anything with 640 footage now that we have 4K; I guess the experts are wrong! All the cheap cameras I have, do 640, 720, and 1080p footage. after seeing Your video I became inspired!
Love the unicycle action! However, not too bad for an older camera. That was fun! The photo challenge sounds like a one to watch for. Stay safe and healthy out there! Thank you for sharing a part of your day with us!
I picked up the same one in the thrift store. Had new batteries and a 2 gig card it works great I paid 21.58 out the door. Crazy thing is the next day I went back in the same store' in the back they had the a510 model marked (N/T not tested) for 89 cents. I picked up a card and batteries and it too works just as good if not better than the bigger model. What a deal.
Well I just want to cry you made things so simple like they were back then and really enjoying it the video is fantastic you bring back a lot of memories this is such an awesome video such a great little camera I'm a camera holic I have all those cameras still put away they look brand new I'll never get rid of them
i absolutely love this. i got a powershot SD600 at a garage sale and used that to make a few videos lol. but if you want to push it just a little more, CHDK can enable the camera to shoot virtually RAW video in its native resolution.
Hey there. I know this comment is quite old, and apologise for reviving it, but I tried chdk on my a630 and could not get anything else than 480p video out of it, and normal resolution photos even using chdk. Will be very thankful if you do end up reply. Have a nice day
@@f_for_freedom2492 ah, I wasn’t able to find any resolution settings either. 480p IS it’s native video resolution, I didn’t mean sensor resolution so sorry about that. But there is a setting for video BITRATE in there. Setting the bitrate to 2x the usual makes the video quality remarkably clear even for standard definition video
@@EVRLYNMedia Hi, thanks for the reply. Well don't worry about it. I thought I had read on their forums that the sensor had a crazy high resolution, but the processor just isn't powerful enough to encode it. Well, I tried the bitrate setting, but it doesn't seem to make quite a difference on mine. Perhaps it's just worn out. Is that even possible ? I've also had a serious issue with grain even in very bright scenes, so it's probable that mine is just worn out. Thanks for the reply either way, have a nice day !
@@f_for_freedom2492 That's odd. The quality difference is subtle (i mean its still 480p) but i would definitely chose the better video quality. i use an sandisk extreme III card to get the most bitrate out of that otherwise bottlenecked interface.
@@EVRLYNMedia It is indeed odd, I also use a sandisk extreme (not sure which one, but it does 90mb/s, so it should be plenty) but I could not personally notice a difference. Maybe this camera really is worn out. Well either way, I'll be moving on to film soon, and this one will be sitting pretty on a shelf probably, as decoration. Rest well deserved.
Howdy Weston! I had some nostalgia back in the ‘50s…picture me standing next to the Disney Studio cameras in the high desert east of Bend, Oregon, taking Kodachrome 25 slides of the filming of Disney’s “Tonka” with my Kodak Pony 135!!! Even the rubber tipped arrows looked real!! Well, until a rubber tipped Arrow bounced off of the back of a cavalry officer!!!
Love your video so excited to see how good it works it's a great little camera while you're bringing back memories I want to go back to those point and shoots thank you for sharing
11:20 This is the camera that I use for my RUclips channel XD When I'm not using my iPhone. You can see the footage in my "The Notebook" video, minimally edited. The main problem I have is the hinge on the battery door, and the microphone noise. It does take some great photos though...!
how u slow motion 20fbs .....cuse i have powershot sx50hs it film 24fbs/s and when i slow down to -500% it looks so lagy please any help ? and sorry foe my english 😁
I bought a brand new cannon "film" camera to replace my old film camera that finally broke... Digital was just coming out and I thought, Who would get into that. LOL Now I need to get a dslr to shoot my videos in my shop for my channel. I am still using my phone. What is your input for us non-filmmaking or vlogging channels? I do more how-to type videos in my shop. Blacksmithing, Welding and other projects. So I like watching videographers and vloggers but my needs are different. I just do the best I can. Take care.
You can get an old Canon DSLR for really cheap used, they’re great because you can set the focus manually on the lens to your table to show what you’re doing.
hahah honestly I really enjoyed the gimbal footage, kind of a vibe! I just got my hands on one of these from my wife's grandparents and this video is exactly what I needed. Thanks Weston!
I have the A570, thought they were expensive. What's the reason for such a big video card. You do a vid then save it to something, pc, then record over it. I just recently found out if you are going to do a lot of over recording you need a special card, I need it for my dash cam.
Thanks for this. Dug out my icy blue version of this camera hoping to make videos with it but I guess I better get a real one. I don't know how you ride that unicycle..well done sir
I have a Casio Exilim S8 which takes pictures and video. My Google Pixel 3 reads the SD card for photos but doesn't read the video. Where do I look to find the answer to fix this problem?
Try bringing down ur whites in lumetri in premiere. Like 25 points. It looks like ur having the highlight clip issue that happens on sony cameras. I'm assuming you didnt expose ur interview like that. Give it a shot and you'll notice much better highlight roll off.
Sir, I have a question I don’t have an sd card on my Camera rn “Same model” and it is not opening. Is it not opening bec it doesn’t have sd card? Or the camera is broken?
How much mAh battery should be used for this camera? I have 2450mAh AA battery but after 2 minutes it shows that replaces the battery. Can you please help me?
my Powershot a520 is not powering on with battery, but works fine on the DC power cord, so its something to do with the contacts, even though they are clean, could be a capacitor thats worn out, but any fix is welcome in the comments, Sidenote, CCD based digital cams have recently become sought after becuase of their more film like output, don't pay to much for one, chances are it will just stop working one day and need a team of experts to figure out which component on the circuit board expired.
First: good idea second:cinematic video equal ultra/super//wide. Big mistake boy. If you had respected the orginal aspect ratio (4:3)the result would been better One more thing : (North) american cinema:movement all the time all the movie. is this the only way ?
Amazing looking video! Great composition of shots, along side with nice editing.😜👊 I also have just posted a video with the intention to help filmmakers and Photographes spice their game. 🔥💯
I was following the video and wanted to be just like you as an inspiration. Until you brought out that unicycle. And I stopped following. Why Weston? Why?
No Kodak is similar to a Canon digicam, Kodak are junk in comparison. Photos from a Kodak are mushy the colors are weird not even close to being as good as a Canon.
The cinematic looked like an intro to a movie from the 2000’s, dont get me wrong that was great!
Thanks so much! It does really look like that!

It’s got that 2004 vibe. Proof that you don’t need $3000 of camera gear to make something cool, but also proof you do need a $600 gimbal hahaha
Haha yeah. At least this gimbal wasn’t that expensive. The look is definitely a vibe, reminds me of late 90s hallmark movies!
Hey now you have the gimbal from this video! Crazy!
I love the nostalgic vibe that camera produces
Me too! Another video about just that is coming soon!
You probably heard about it by now, but CHDK is a project that lets you get more options out of the video.
Love the unicycle action! However, not too bad for an older camera. That was fun! The photo challenge sounds like a one to watch for. Stay safe and healthy out there! Thank you for sharing a part of your day with us!
Thank you so much! It was a fun one to make and I’m excited to continue the series!

Thank you so much I’m so glad you enjoyed the video!
yes it gives a very nostalgic 2000s vibe feels so amazing ... like usually reminds of some childhood shows and so much memories
Haven't watched yet and already like the idea
It has some sort of weird nostalgic feeling to it, it feels like a weird but beautiful dream. Great job!
I was going through my old stuff and found this camera & it’s still pretty great!

the quality is garbage... and i love it
Interesting results, did you upscale the video in editing?
can you teach me how to manually set the color so that it looks like a film-ish photo?
Did u ever do the photos with this cam
Love your video so excited to see how good it works it's a great little camera while you're bringing back memories I want to go back to those point and shoots thank you for sharing
What gb did u used ??
My husband had this camera and it took excellent pictures.
Would love to see this revisited with CHDK to see how far it can be pushed!

I just got the camera myself.. same deal, I got it a thrift store.. I was just wondering if it charges while plugged in via usb? great videos guy.
I don't think so, I just use AA batteries I bought from Home Depot.
@@WestonNey I bought rechargeables. I wonder what's with the dc in
@@joshmetat I think that’s just to power the camera for doing things like time lapses.
I got this camera 15 years ago and is still working perfectly

It looks good.

lokking forward for the photo review...
Thanks for this. Dug out my icy blue version of this camera hoping to make videos with it but I guess I better get a real one. I don't know how you ride that unicycle..well done sir
i have the powershot a580. can i zoom while filming a video? yk like a video recorder aesthetic
I envy you your skills and your screen presence.
Where's the finished movie? The old Panasonic Lumix DMC cameras shoot pretty good video, too.
I buyed this 13 years ago but it's mega pixels is 5.0 but it's quality is like 32pixel
Thank you so much for sharing! Great video creation congratulations too! Super informative camera test and demonstration! Good day!
👍🍀🇭🇺🌞☝️
Hey bro, can I ask how I can get the footage from the memory card in this camera to my phone
Bro, what's wrong with your color grading when you're outside with your regular camera? It feels like I have cataracts all of a sudden
Gracias!
man when fell of that uniped I was damn sure thinkin it...lol.. i spit my drink out...lmap.....
I have a Casio Exilim S8 which takes pictures and video. My Google Pixel 3 reads the SD card for photos but doesn't read the video. Where do I look to find the answer to fix this problem?
would the canon powershot SD750 good be for a kid?
Does anyone know how much space on an sd card this camera can take?
Up to 2 gigabytes!
Wow! How did you correct it?
Those were some cool shots
!
does it work without a memory card or will it just be a black screen?
Can u do powershot A700 too plz

Love from India
Thanks for letting me know that it can't shot RUclips video. It was given as a gift. I'll shot only photos...lol
Super fun video! Loved it :)
Hi, brother what about voice recording.
I am with you 😉 now
Was it a raw effect or edit video with the power shot?
best video
I want to buy this camera
Great video mate!

what battery you used to it?
Hai my dad have one and is not turn on why?do you have a chager that camera?
This particular camera just takes AA batteries.
what card do u use ?
Does this camera zoom while recording?
I also got this same camera when I 10 years old
Good job!👍
Thanks Jesse!
Did you do a PowerShot video part 2? Pitting it against your Sony and your iphone?
what about upscaling to 4k ?
That wouldn’t do a whole lot. The quality is already pretty low and there’s not much data to interpolate off of.
Yeah just you have to know how to use the software for this
Can you tell a cinematic story with a 10$ camera?
You definitely could!
bro can you tell me that how can we use this camera as a web cam for macbook ??
Unfortunately you cannot use this camera as a webcam. Sorry.
Does that camera have audio?
Nothing like cinematic
Hello, How canon powershot a710 connect to windows 10?
You take the SD card out, then put it into your computer.
@@WestonNey thank u very much
А как на нем снимать видео я не поняла только как фототся помогите
Guess the photographer failed on this one
I think it should have been left 4:3
First: good idea second:cinematic video equal ultra/super//wide.
Big mistake boy.
If you had respected the orginal aspect ratio (4:3)the result would been better
One more thing : (North) american cinema:movement all the time all the movie. is this the only way ?
i have one of those lil cameras
Amazing looking video! Great composition of shots, along side with nice editing.😜👊 I also have just posted a video with the intention to help filmmakers and Photographes spice their game. 🔥💯

That’s great! It’s an amazing photo camera and fun lofi video camera!
