Such a EXTREMELY helpful video! I got this camera recently as a gift from my mom, and this video makes it SO much easier to learn. Not to mention your index in the description? Such a good video!
I have been working with this camera for four months on my own and didn't know what I was doing! Your video has helped me tremendously. Thank you so much!
This is EXACTLY the kind of video that I have been looking for for my sx50hs which I have owned for 8 years but have never used . I was so intimidated by the complexity. It simply offered more options for each session than I could comprehend. Please publish any other videos that you may have done in the past about this wonderful camera.
That was very informative. My 1st real camera. I'm working on a cookbook. I need to take pictures of the finished dish. Any suggestions for the correct settings?
The camera features several different modes from auto to manual. If you want to have some control over the picture taking process you could choose the live view option. This would allow you to experiment with exposure compensation, saturation, and white balance. We would also make sure to keep the camera's sensitivity (ISO) as low as possible. This will ensure the best quality. Also, having a support for the camera will prevent image blur from camera shake.
+Andrea Farrelly Hi Andrea, unfortunately Canon placed more emphasis on the large magnification zoom for this camera, we would suggest looking into the G Series in Canon for more advanced features but less zoom capabilities such as the Cano G1X Mark II digitalgoja.com/canon-powershot-g1-x-mark-ii-digital-camera-free-accessories.html
Hello Anthony Gatt. Date and time stamp can be turned on by accessing it in your camera's menu. Press the Menu button, choose Date Stamp on the camera tab, and then choose the desired option. Please note that once you add the date stamp it can not be edited.

+TheBeGx Hi there! Unfortunately you cannot this. In order to use a flash with this camera you will need a Rotating Flash Bracket as well as a continuous light such as this digitalgoja.com/manfrotto-led-light-mini-24-continuous-220lxat1m-ml240.html
Hello Would you recommend me starting off my photography with this camera I’m practicing with my iPhone 8plus but I want to move up to a camera would you recommend me this one for inside and outside photos ? Thank you I’m a beginner on photography
@@angelaulate7214 Hi, it is a good camera, but same as the Powershot you are not able to change lenses so you can reach the limit of its use very fast.
Hi, I’ve had my power shot for almost 2 years now and I’m looking to upgrade to a better camera. I don’t want something super expensive and high tech, but some a step up from the powershot. Any suggestions on what camera next would be greatly appreciated, thank you!
+Digital Goja is there a way to make it where after it stops recording automatically, it will automatically start recording again? Because some of my videos are longer than 20 minutes.
One thing he did not mention was the fact that the battery does not last long it lasts for around 3-4 hours at the most I recommend carrying an extra battery for the camera that way you always have a spare, besides the fact that the battery time does not last that long this camera is great!
Great information!! But I still have one question. When I record a video and try to download it to my iPhone it tells me it can’t download it because the video is over two minutes and I only recorded ten minutes.?
I love my camera, but when i go to video mode the camera shuts off. i have reset the camera and still it does not work I reformatted the disk and i and having the same problem. should i try a different memory card i don,t know I don,t think that is the problem the camera worked just fine when i first got it. the videos was great. its been about a year maybe it needs a repair. I am looking for a solution before i send it in.
Hi Abraham, please make sure that your battery is ok, it could be the problem. If not then contact Canon directly as they may know the solution to this problem.
Can’t open the area to replace my batteries?? It seem to be stuck HELP I bought it last week from a yard sale I’m new with Cannon camara. It came in the box with manuals and all cables like new. Living in Florida I wonder if humidity made the lash hard to open. Also I heard the batteries run out fast ugh 😑 which good quality batteries do you suggest it will last longer ? Thank you 😊
Hello Punit prakhar. Yes you absolutely can. The camera also allows you to switch from AF to manual focus by pressing the left button on the cross keys (MF/macro).
Hello Digital Goja, I have CANON PowerShot SX530 HS camera. If I buy light room can I improve my JPEG pictures ? My camera doesn't do RAW pictures. Thank you ! Lucia

I'm really loving this camera! I'm a novice and it has so far been really easy to use. I am however having a problem with transferring videos via wifi. When I sync the camera with my laptop, all of the images go automatically and I can find them with ease, but none of the videos make it that far and I can't figure out why.

I am interested in doing professional portraits, passport sized photos, and intimate gatherings photography. Will this camera be suitable? If not, which to upgrade to?
Hi, we recommend getting a camera on which you can change the lenses, at least a Canon T6, and you will need the 50mm 1.8 lens, as it is the best for portraits.
I am struggling with how to set up the wifi with my iphone. I've looked at the guide but didn't find it too helpful. I downloaded the Canon Connect app but it just told me to look at the guide. Yikes! Help!

Hi, you should try different shutter speeds, starting at 1/250 and going up to 1/25, then use an ISO of 200 or 100 if possible, also, a great help would be a tripod.
Hi Kim, every camera comes with their respective printed user manual, you can also find them online. Below you can find the manual for the Canon PowerShot SX530 HS: www.camera-usermanual.com/manuals/canon/Canon_PowerShot_SX530_HS.pdf
I have the same camera, but for some reason it won’t turn on, it’s only a few months old, the battery isn’t old, I didn’t drop it or do anything to it, i have taken very good care of it, and for some reason it won’t turn on, do you have any idea why this is happening? Also I heard there’s also a switch that if you hit it, the camera might not turn on,, what is that switch and where is it?
Hello Izzy, can you attach other lenses to the SX530 HS camera. I know it has the built in lenses but before I go out and get other attachments, I would like to know if it is able to be able to attach other lenses to the one on it.
Hi! I have this camera and love it but I can't seem to find any options for field minitors! Do you have any recommendations on how to create a field monitor with the Canon Poershot sx530 hs?
One of my friends got this camera and he went to niagra falls to take pictures. Some how water got inside while taking pictures and now it doesn't want to work. It turns on but the lens don't come out when u turn it on. Is there a reset button for this camera? Or is there a way to get this fix?
+Steezy M Hi there! You can check how to reset the camera on the camera manual page 130: www.camera-usermanual.com/manuals/canon/Canon_PowerShot_SX530_HS.pdf if that doesn't work your friend will need to take the camera to a camera repair store.
I have this camera and it's great for outdoor sports of my kids. I do still need to do some editing. However, the indoor gym shots, especially basketball, I can't get the nice crisp, clear shots. It really struggles with the lighting, and you can't get the details on the face. I've hunted all over to figure out how to solve these issues. Any suggestions?? Is there some other additional equipment I need? I really appreciate any help and advice! Thank you!!
Hey Stacy Parkinson. It would be a pleasure to assist you. I could see why you are concerned. Typically when taking photos outdoors during the day time there is more than enough light for this type of camera to focus and freeze with a relatively low sensitivity (ISO) level that produces a clean, sharp, and detailed image with low image noise. Take the camera inside and that all changes as you see. In order to freeze action, you need a fast shutter speed which ultimately reduces the amount of light that gets recorded. In addition, the lens when zoomed in restricts quite a bit of light causing the camera to have to increase its sensitivity to the given light. This will introduce "noise" and reduce image clarity. If you are looking to improve the image quality for indoor sports I would recommend looking into a DSLR or Mirrorless camera. When paired with a good lens not only will you see improvements in your indoor photos but you will also notice a bump in image quality when photographing outdoors. You can find more information on the Canon EOS M50 here ruclips.net/video/Pzzal954shk/видео.html, and the Canon EOS Rebel T7i here ruclips.net/video/CqX0BqcNo1o/видео.html. Regards.
Hi! This is a very informative video. But, I have a problem seeing how you are navigating the functions. For example, I want to use the self-timer and cannot see how the settings operate. Upon my attempts to set the self-timer, the option to scroll is not there. Which means I am obviously doing something wrong.
I took some photos today of equipment outside overcast and partly sunny and they all have a blue tint to them… I was on the auto mode what should I used for the settings...
When shooting video indoors in the scene mode we would recommend using also the low light mode, also, we would suggest setting a higher ISO for more sensitivity.
I need a camera with a wide angle lens to take group photos of my four small dogs. Would this camera be good for that? Also, does it have built in flash? Or Pop up flash? I heard pop up flash is a bad thing. Thank you.
Hi Coco! Yes, this camera has a pop-up flash. Built in flashes are not a bad thing, they are good to a limit. If you want more professional portrait photographs then you will eventually need to use an external flash. But pop up flashes are good for mostly casual shots. Now, this camera is currently out of stock, but we can offer you the newest model which also has a pop-up flash and many other accessories: digitalgoja.com/canon-powershot-sx60-hs-digital-camera-free-accessories.html Now, to shoot wide angle you can use a wide angle converter such as this one: digitalgoja.com/67mm-0-43x-wide-angle-macro-lens.html Please keep in mind that you wouldn't be able to use this wide angle attachment without a lens adapter ring, but if you purchase the camera + kit from us, you can see that it already comes with an adapter ring for filters and attachments such as the wide angle.
Hi Leslie, the internal mic of this camera is not so good as the rest of the camera, you could try changing the settings and boosting it a bit to get a louder recording of the sound.
Hi there! Try exporting the photos directly to your computer and have the SD card revised. The speed of it might be too low. If possible try with another SD card.
when you were talking about the microphone and how id you'd like to do more professional video, to get the 'bigger brother', would do you mean by that? what camera is that? thank you(:
Hi there! We highly recommend you to take your camera to a Canon Authorized Repair center to have your camera fixed since some internal mechanism might have damaged on the drop.
I bought this camera not long ago and I have a question about it, Can I shoot the movie in manual mode? Because when I leave it in auto the digital noise is just horrible, it's so grainy even in a bright scene like outdoor shooting on a very sunny day but I have no problems with photo shooting tho.
i bought this camera and love it for my photography. but only issue i seem to have right now is the battery dies after a few pictures are taken and the batteries are fully charged. Please help.
Hey..can you please tell me how to use those two buttons that are on the left side of the lens. I don't know what they are called. They are located on the front side of the camera left side to lens. I think they are for focus. Thank you for your Time..
The top one is the framing assist seek button, you press this to have it scan a particular subject, and the bottom one is to lock the subject in and it will zoom and focus on them.
Does this camera have infinity on it? I've took photos of the moon and northern lights in October 2017 a d want to learn how to take photos of the stars.
hi. my camera on/off button wasn't working.. please anyone help, how can i fix it.. i can use button by turning off but when i turn it on i had to remove the battery first and then when i put it again, my camera automatically turn on. thanks for any help.
We would recommend getting in touch with the seller to have it fixed or replaced. If it was purchased from us, please send your order details to info@gojasales.com and we will be more than happy to assist you.
Also I'm having trouble getting blurry background. Would you be able to make a video on how to get a blurry background.and bokeh on the canon powershot Sx530HS
I'm a content creator on youtube, i usually record for 30-60 minutes. With canon powershot sx540 HS i can only record 16-20 minutes and i have 64GB of kingston sd card. Is there a certain limit in capturing a video so it does not infringe the camcorder companies?
Hi, you are correct, there is a time limit for videos and no camera can shoot more than 29 mins and 59 seconds, the camcorders would get useless without that time limit for DSLR cameras.
Hello. Just wanted to say thank you for the video. It helped with some insight on different things the camera has to offer. But I do have a question about it that I am unsure about and I do need help with it. I want to record with this camera (video), but I notice after I use my battery that was fully charged it maybe lasts up to 30 minutes. Is there a way I can have the camera tell me when the battery is dying so I know when to stop filming my videos? Thanks. I hope I asked this clearly.

Hi Ahmad, all the full frame lenses with the Canon mount that we have can be used with it.
Can this camera be used to capture moments from a gymnast doing from Jumps to flips without them been blurry? Thanks!
Hi, you would have to raise the shutter speed to be able to do that without the blur.
What is the "big brother" camera? I'm looking for a decent vlogging camera. Thanks!
Hi, in this case, that is the SX540 HS, and both of these cameras are good for vlogging.
Can i send the photos i capture directly to my iPhone via wifi/nfc?
Hi, it can be done with the Canon transfer app.
Thanks this was a very helpful and easy to follow video and you tackled the most common questions without going over the top or being super boring 😁
You're very welcome! Thanks for your feedback, Latrese Lewis.
Hi, I know the lens on the sx530 is fixed. But is it to possible to add a mount adapter into it to be able to change lenses?

I have recently bought a Canon Powershot SX540. I haven't even started using my camera yet. Can I follow your tutorial for my camera ? Thanks
Hi Riyadh, this tutorial can help as there are only slight differences between these two cameras.
Hi Digital Goja, thank you so much for your reply. I looking forward in going through your tutorial along with my new camera.
Enjoy it!!!
Can I blur the background while capturing a photo? If I can, how can I do it?
Unfortunately, for the bokeh effect you need a lens that can do that, and the lens on this camera cannot be changed.
Thaks for your kind information.😊
Digital Goja cant you just adjust the aperature?
Roshik Parody just adjust the aperature to a low number. Think of aperature like depth of field
Tried everything but the creative effects arent very good on this camera
How do you take long exposures using this camera during the day? Shooting things such as the sea/rivers. And how do you do a time lapse?
+Andrea Farrelly Hi Andrea, unfortunately Canon placed more emphasis on the large magnification zoom for this camera, we would suggest looking into the G Series in Canon for more advanced features but less zoom capabilities such as the Cano G1X Mark II digitalgoja.com/canon-powershot-g1-x-mark-ii-digital-camera-free-accessories.html
Can a microphone be connected to this camera? If so, what is the best model to purchase?
Hi Brianna, unfortunately it cannot be connected to your camera.
What is better for video, the Canon sx530 or the Canon Vixia HF R800? I am trying to figure out which one to buy since they are both similar in price.
Hi, the Vixia is better for shooting videos.

Is this camera good for filming 1080p videos ?
The Canon PowerShot SX530 HS is a good alternative for 1080p videos at 30 FPS.
i have Canon Powershot Sx520hs, WiFi is not available in this model Any idea to connect to the WiFi Transfer to the mobile directly.....
Hi, unfortunately, Wi-Fi cannot be used with this model.
Does camera come with an owners Manuel I can take with me or do I have to be near the Internet to look up "how to"??? Thank you!
Hi Kim, every camera comes with their respective printed user manual, you can also find them online. Below you can find the manual for the Canon PowerShot SX530 HS: www.camera-usermanual.com/manuals/canon/Canon_PowerShot_SX530_HS.pdf
What is the size of the removable lense cap?
Hi, it should be 49mm.
I have the same camera, but for some reason it won’t turn on, it’s only a few months old, the battery isn’t old, I didn’t drop it or do anything to it, i have taken very good care of it, and for some reason it won’t turn on, do you have any idea why this is happening? Also I heard there’s also a switch that if you hit it, the camera might not turn on,, what is that switch and where is it?
Hi, your camera probably needs a repair as it is not working and there is no switch like you mentioned, please contact Canon support.
What about the best shutter speed, aperture, f-stop, ISO etc for outdoor portraits
We would suggest using the portraid mode when shooting photos for best results.
Hello Izzy, can you attach other lenses to the SX530 HS camera. I know it has the built in lenses but before I go out and get other attachments, I would like to know if it is able to be able to attach other lenses to the one on it.
+kaitlyn mcvey Hi Kaitlyn! You sure can, however, you will need an adapter such as the one on this kit: www.amazon.com/dp/B00867PIOM
I have this camera, but am disappointed about only 15 second shutter speed. Is there any device to increase shutter speed?
That's the limit of this camera: 1-1/2000 sec. and 15-1/2000 sec. (in Tv and M modes)
Hi! I have this camera and love it but I can't seem to find any options for field minitors! Do you have any recommendations on how to create a field monitor with the Canon Poershot sx530 hs?
Hi Rebecca, unfortunately not since Canon prefers you to connect to a tablet or smart phone.
Tnx for infos, could you plzzz compare iphone with sx540 hs??????
Hi, we do not review phones.
One of my friends got this camera and he went to niagra falls to take pictures. Some how water got inside while taking pictures and now it doesn't want to work. It turns on but the lens don't come out when u turn it on. Is there a reset button for this camera? Or is there a way to get this fix?
+Steezy M Hi there! You can check how to reset the camera on the camera manual page 130: www.camera-usermanual.com/manuals/canon/Canon_PowerShot_SX530_HS.pdf if that doesn't work your friend will need to take the camera to a camera repair store.
What's the best settings for this camera when it comes to good quality portrait and headshots photos ? Can you make a video or reply please.
You can choose the portrait shooting mode in the menu for the best results.
I have this camera and it's great for outdoor sports of my kids. I do still need to do some editing. However, the indoor gym shots, especially basketball, I can't get the nice crisp, clear shots. It really struggles with the lighting, and you can't get the details on the face. I've hunted all over to figure out how to solve these issues. Any suggestions?? Is there some other additional equipment I need? I really appreciate any help and advice! Thank you!!
Hey Stacy Parkinson. It would be a pleasure to assist you. I could see why you are concerned. Typically when taking photos outdoors during the day time there is more than enough light for this type of camera to focus and freeze with a relatively low sensitivity (ISO) level that produces a clean, sharp, and detailed image with low image noise. Take the camera inside and that all changes as you see. In order to freeze action, you need a fast shutter speed which ultimately reduces the amount of light that gets recorded. In addition, the lens when zoomed in restricts quite a bit of light causing the camera to have to increase its sensitivity to the given light. This will introduce "noise" and reduce image clarity. If you are looking to improve the image quality for indoor sports I would recommend looking into a DSLR or Mirrorless camera. When paired with a good lens not only will you see improvements in your indoor photos but you will also notice a bump in image quality when photographing outdoors. You can find more information on the Canon EOS M50 here ruclips.net/video/Pzzal954shk/видео.html, and the Canon EOS Rebel T7i here ruclips.net/video/CqX0BqcNo1o/видео.html. Regards.
Hi! This is a very informative video. But, I have a problem seeing how you are navigating the functions. For example, I want to use the self-timer and cannot see how the settings operate. Upon my attempts to set the self-timer, the option to scroll is not there. Which means I am obviously doing something wrong.
Hi Priscilla, all you have to do is press the Func Set button, look for the small clock icon and use the exterior pad to navigate to it.
I took some photos today of equipment outside overcast and partly sunny and they all have a blue tint to them… I was on the auto mode what should I used for the settings...
Hi Dennis, if you set your WB to overcast, the camera will give you better color.
Thank you I will give it a try, greatly appreciated...
I'am having problems with filming indoors. The video looks a little fuzzy. Any suggestions? It works perfect outdoors.
When shooting video indoors in the scene mode we would recommend using also the low light mode, also, we would suggest setting a higher ISO for more sensitivity.
thank you so much. I love this camera.
Glad to help!
I need a camera with a wide angle lens to take group photos of my four small dogs. Would this camera be good for that? Also, does it have built in flash? Or Pop up flash? I heard pop up flash is a bad thing. Thank you.
Hi Coco! Yes, this camera has a pop-up flash. Built in flashes are not a bad thing, they are good to a limit. If you want more professional portrait photographs then you will eventually need to use an external flash. But pop up flashes are good for mostly casual shots. Now, this camera is currently out of stock, but we can offer you the newest model which also has a pop-up flash and many other accessories: digitalgoja.com/canon-powershot-sx60-hs-digital-camera-free-accessories.html Now, to shoot wide angle you can use a wide angle converter such as this one: digitalgoja.com/67mm-0-43x-wide-angle-macro-lens.html Please keep in mind that you wouldn't be able to use this wide angle attachment without a lens adapter ring, but if you purchase the camera + kit from us, you can see that it already comes with an adapter ring for filters and attachments such as the wide angle.
Hi I love my new camera so far, but when I took videos I can barely hear when I re play the video...
Hi Leslie, the internal mic of this camera is not so good as the rest of the camera, you could try changing the settings and boosting it a bit to get a louder recording of the sound.
Is it possible to use this camera as a webcam?
Hi, you can record yourself with it, by using the HDMI cable.
Thank you for the great video. Can I transfer my photos to my main computer using a USB cord.
Hi, yes it should work with a USB cable.
I need to shoot a long video with this camera -- a wedding ceremony. How long can the video be? Thanks
Hi Karen! You can record 29.59sec video clips in HD and 1 hour in VGA if fully charged battery.
Hey Bro what do i do to look back at my pictures. every time i press the play button it says its busy!
Hi there! Try exporting the photos directly to your computer and have the SD card revised. The speed of it might be too low. If possible try with another SD card.
when you were talking about the microphone and how id you'd like to do more professional video, to get the 'bigger brother', would do you mean by that? what camera is that? thank you(:
+angielovescats Hi there! That would be the Canon Powershot SX 60 HS.
Hey man great video wanted to know can you attach a tripod stick for holding and clogging ??
+Anwar Stevenson Hi there! you sure can.
How can I clean dust & fungus ( which is building up ) form my Cannon SX 500 IS ?
Hi Bijan, please take it to a pro or use a cleaning kit to clean that before it damages the camera.
How can I charge this camera with USB ? Can I connect USB directly to my power bank or need something? Please reply me ?
Hi, it should not be charged via the USB, only through the charger.
@@DigitalGojaUSA thanks 🙂
What size is the lens?? I want to buy an adapter to put on filter but whats the name of the lens or adapter in able to use it?? Is it a step up ring??
It has a "unique" size and it will need a dedicated adapter ring, you can look for the FA-DC67A adapter ring.
mine fell and the lense doesnt come out is there steps i can take to fix this before i have to pay to fix it ?
Hi there! We highly recommend you to take your camera to a Canon Authorized Repair center to have your camera fixed since some internal mechanism might have damaged on the drop.
Can you use the light on video recordings?
Hi, the internal flash is not good to use for video.
I bought this camera not long ago and I have a question about it, Can I shoot the movie in manual mode? Because when I leave it in auto the digital noise is just horrible, it's so grainy even in a bright scene like outdoor shooting on a very sunny day but I have no problems with photo shooting tho.
Unfortunately no, as "Video Recording" and "Manual" are two separate functions on your camera dial.
Hello, I do not know how to transfer the photos to the cell since the app that comes out in the Manual is in Korean, could you help me?
Hi Erika, make sure to download the "Canon Camera Connect App" to your smartphone from your region app store.
hi , aperture range detail please n how to make bokeh with sx530 -540
Hi, please see this video:
ruclips.net/video/IXn8aE-6UYA/видео.html
i bought this camera and love it for my photography. but only issue i seem to have right now is the battery dies after a few pictures are taken and the batteries are fully charged. Please help.
Hi Amanda! That sounds like a faulty battery. I recommend you contact the seller and see about getting the battery exchanged.
Hey..can you please tell me how to use those two buttons that are on the left side of the lens. I don't know what they are called. They are located on the front side of the camera left side to lens. I think they are for focus. Thank you for your Time..
The top one is the framing assist seek button, you press this to have it scan a particular subject, and the bottom one is to lock the subject in and it will zoom and focus on them.
Does this camera have infinity on it? I've took photos of the moon and northern lights in October 2017 a d want to learn how to take photos of the stars.
Hi Michelle, we would suggest you to set the ISO to 3200 or 6400, with the widest aperture, widest zoom and a shutter speed of 25sec.
hi. my camera on/off button wasn't working.. please anyone help, how can i fix it.. i can use button by turning off but when i turn it on i had to remove the battery first and then when i put it again, my camera automatically turn on. thanks for any help.
Hi Jona, you should contact Canon directly as that could be a defect with the camera.
@@DigitalGojaUSA thank you sir.. but i bought it from a friend so i dnt think i can directly go to Canon. anyways thanks sir
I just bought it and I can't get past the date and time part bc it won't move. I'm moving the direction but nothing is moving
We would recommend getting in touch with the seller to have it fixed or replaced. If it was purchased from us, please send your order details to info@gojasales.com and we will be more than happy to assist you.
Also I'm having trouble getting blurry background. Would you be able to make a video on how to get a blurry background.and bokeh on the canon powershot Sx530HS
We'll be happy to consider it. Thanks for the suggestion :)
I'm a content creator on youtube, i usually record for 30-60 minutes. With canon powershot sx540 HS i can only record 16-20 minutes and i have 64GB of kingston sd card. Is there a certain limit in capturing a video so it does not infringe the camcorder companies?
Hi, you are correct, there is a time limit for videos and no camera can shoot more than 29 mins and 59 seconds, the camcorders would get useless without that time limit for DSLR cameras.
Hello. Just wanted to say thank you for the video. It helped with some insight on different things the camera has to offer. But I do have a question about it that I am unsure about and I do need help with it. I want to record with this camera (video), but I notice after I use my battery that was fully charged it maybe lasts up to 30 minutes. Is there a way I can have the camera tell me when the battery is dying so I know when to stop filming my videos? Thanks. I hope I asked this clearly.
Hi, in the options there should be display options where you can choose which info can be displayed on the screen.
Digital Goja do you know if I can make it make a beep or some kind of noise when it’s dying? Or does it not have this feature
It should make the beep by default, if it is not making it you should contact Canon as it could be defective.
Is this camera good for landscape ? If not what can I use ?
Hi Vanessa, you can use it for landscape photos at the wide angle focal lengths.
Solid review, man. Looking to pick this up around Christmas time. This was very helpful and insightful. Thank you.
Happy to help!
hi there , can this camera shoots video in C-LOG of Flat Picture Profile?
Hi, as far as we know it does not have that option, newer cameras have it.
