It's worth considering (I'm sure you have) that on many dslr's autofocus on the shutter button could have been deactivated in favour of back button focusing. I have done that on my Nikon. So just because it doesn't focus on the shutter button doesn't mean it doesn't work
also nikon side zoom can be remapped
CF errors on the Canon 5D mark II are a very common problem with this camera. Many posts about this online with few solid clues how to fix this. This camera is pretty finicky about brands of CF cards that can be used. Some solutions offered include a complete reset to factory defaults and/or formatting the CF card in a computer first (fat 32).
Thanks for the additional info, I will try formatting on my CPU, just got a few more cards in too
Try a sandisk cf card. The cards you tried looked to be lexar branded.@@pricklypearcamera
Second camera. “Canon 770” Gaffers tape on the side. Done. 💪 love that stuff.
Awesome love that orange camera.
Those LCD glass can be replaced easily. They are not expensive. I think I did one on a Canon SX520 for about $5.00. Basically heat up the old one with a hairdryer, remove and replace. The adhesive perimeter strip is included.
Ohhh...I'm at 20:35, I really hope that 5D works...and with that 50mm. Everybody is always talking about the "plastic fantastic" 50mm 1,8. At around 100 USD. I payed 120 USD for the 50mm 1,4 USM in mint condition. I have both. The 1,4 is a MUCH better lens in built quality, glass, focus speed...every way possible. :)
Nice! I love the 50mm 1.4 lens too, and you got it for a great price!
$1000 wow, big spender you!
I had the canon sd790. Loved it.
The Sony has pre-flash for red-eye reduction. It can probably be disabled in the menu.
Cannon most likely needs a new card reader.
Panasonic looks cool.
Stuck autofocus? Get the rubber hammer.
😂
Camera smasher!
You’re the man! 😂
Some lens creep is normal for superzoom lenses if you hold the lens downwards. My Nikkor AF-S 28-300mm has it from new.
Quite true, I just do this as a general test, some lenses have excessive amounts of lens creep, well beyond normal Imo
It's a real bummer that the Canon 5Dmkii wasn't working properly. But even so at least there is some value for you from it I have an Olympus SZ-10. Very similar to the SZ-11 you had. I use it as a daily pocketable camera. Needs a lot of light but in the right conditions a decent little camera. Another interesting video, nice work.
Thanks Bill! I've got a few tips from viewers on possible fixes, so will give that a shot. Ah yes, the SZ-10, I've sold and used quite of that model too! Neat little camera, and you're right, does need a lot of light!
These DSLRs make great starter cameras for kids. Basically, they are obsolete for the pros or those wanting a walkaround camera. I can see a youngster with a Nikon or Canon making some waves and learning photography beyond the cellphone.
I realized that I had some dust on my LX100, so I tried a solution I read on the web: vacuum it out. Basically use a small water bottle with the bottom cut off as an adapter. Put the wide part over the lens, the narrow one to the vacuum cleaner, turn on the camera, turn on the vacuum cleaner, and have at it.
In my case it fixed the issue, and the sensor was cleaned up nicely. Do this at your own risk, though!
Nice! Glad to hear you were able to get it to work! I have tried a few vacuum techniques on some cameras and haven’t been successful yet
As the channel grows, is there any chance you might set up a PO Box in the future, so that people can send you some unwanted cameras? It would be a cool way to contribute to the channel without doing something like Patreon (though that's an option too if it means more content)..
That's a great idea! I had been pondering a PO box recently too...hopefully in the next couple of months. Appreciate your viewership!
When I think about my D5000, the kit lens was not a VR lens. The D5200 (which I still have) came with a VR lens
I *think* it's the Vr lens, Wiki page for D5000 shows the kit lens as the VR too,

shame about the 5Dii - a legendary camera.
I'm looking at buying one for portrait. Idk if I really want one or to upgrade my Sony a7ii mirrorless to something newer.
I'll soon shut up. :D But I feel that Sigma is underrated. They have procuced a lot of...lower quality lenses, but the Art series....they are niiice!! :)
Sure are!
i have a canon 5d mark ii with 50mm lens!
you could try some contact-cleaner or isopropyl alcohol to clean cf card slot / pins on the 5d ii
Thanks for the tip, I will give this a shot!
:) at 5:50 - that lens cap belonged to the first Nikon you tested - was driving me nuts sitting there all by its' lonesome
Ooops! :)
It is a shame that they stop making point and shoot cameras. I can only use one hand but I enjoy taking pictures. A touch screen is hard for me to use also so taking pictures with a smart phone is really hard. I use a Canon ELPH 190 IS and it takes excellent pictures better then a cell phone. Since I find a camera hard to hold and focus the lens, the Canon is perfect for me because everything is automatic
Ricoh still makes the Ricoh GR and it is the best camera for single handed use i ever used. there is even an urban legend that the designers of the camera were forced to test the camera with one hand tied to their back. but it is pretty expensive and the used market is pretty small
Besides the aforementioned Ricoh GRIII (worth checking out, it's a great camera), there's also the new OM System Tough TG-7 (which this channel has done a review of recently), some Sony models (RX100 VII and ZV-1 are the best right now, but I think they still sell some Cybershot models), the Canon G7x Mk III, as well as the admittedly overpriced (but admittedly quite nice) Leica D-Lux 7, though you could buy a Lumix LX100 II and get the same camera for much cheaper lol. They're all a tad expensive, but they're all really nice compact cameras, all featuring 4K video and roughly 20MP (give or take) of resolution with modern processing. Worth noting that the D-Lux 7 and the LX100 II will be somewhat better than the others, since they use M4/3 sensors instead of 1" or smaller.
There's also stuff like the X100 and the Leica Q series, but they're a bit more akin to some of the nicer film point and shoots from the 90s than the digital ones from the 2000s and on, featuring prime lenses and larger sensors (APS-C and Full frame respectively), so they're quite more expensive and often back ordered. Honestly, I think there's quite a few choices there, I'd be hard pressed to pick any of them over the others, with the exception of the X100 and Q series which are in a different category.
Surely the squarest camera Canon ever made was the Ixus 70 (Powershot SD1000)?
At 26:00 I'm sad. About the 5D...I love my 5D2. I love mt 6D too...but maybe the 5D more. I really miss my 7D, that I sold. The shutter sound on that one was....semms like I'm kind of a fan of classic DSLR's. :D
Thanks for sharing! Yep, the 7D has a distinct shutter sound, that's for sure!
5000 pictures only on D3000? I shot 20000 pictures on my camera in a span of just 8 months..
You should be able to turn off the multi-flash on the Sony by turning off red eye reduction.
I was looking for this comment as I was about to say the same thing. The pre-picture flashes are to makes peoples pupils contract to reduce the risk of red eye in pictures. You can normally turn this off on every camera I've ever used.
I never put that together, but makes sense- thanks for the info!
Swisstella !
bummed about the 5d 😢
I know, me too!
I miss the model/value/total value screens
Thanks for the feedback! This adds quite a bit of time for my editing (I'm not super fast), but I will see if I can get this done in a future video!
Ok
silly silly silly
What is the name of your eBay store friend?
Hi, here's a link: www.ebay.com/str/california545
No Leicas....
Don’t see Leica too often, but occasionally!
That would be a treasure!@@pricklypearcamera
Don’t have a D3000
Micro four thirds a new technology, hahaha
The video seems fake to me, I mean, are you pulling cameras out of that box and they are not individually wrapped ? No evidence of the winning bid or the site you used to get this so called camera lot
Not sure if you have watched any of my other videos? I am at the whim of the supplier as to how they package these. Some do a good job with individual bubble wrap/etc, some only use packing peanuts, and some literally put the cameras in the box with hardly any padding. As for providing documentation about these purchases, I don’t share specific invoices as for some of these suppliers it has taken years and years of work to develop a network of opportunities.
