Today I’m going to compare two fantastic budget mirrorless cameras, the Sony a6100 and the Canon M50. We’re going to take a deep look and compare them for both photography and video. These are two of the most popular beginner mirrorless cameras from Sony and Canon and they offer great value.
There are some similarities and some very significant differences, so I will cover the strengths and weaknesses of the #a6100 and the #m50 and compare them in a way that relates to real life use. We’ll talk about body design, framerate and resolution, autofocus, lens options, audio features, and ergonomics.
I will also look at the #sony a6100 and the Canon M50 in terms of battery life, timelapse, viewfinder, live streaming options and recording limit.
Finally I’ll tell you which option I think is best for different uses.

What's up everyone?! I hope this comparison of the Sony A6100 and the Canon M50 with sample footage and images is helpful. These are two of my favorite beginner mirrorless cameras for both photography and video. Let me know what you think!!
Would love to know what you think, good or bad. I am grateful in advance 🙏
Please 🙏,,, Upload some contents about Canon eos 90d 😇,, If Possible
I really need to get that body back!
@@TechGearTalk yess Please 🙏
Can do Detailed review of LUMIX G85 N G7 N IF WE CAN SHOOT IN LOG PROFILE FOR BETTER COLOR CORRECTION..
will do
This moment when 'budget' is out of your budget lol.
Felt...
That's an oof for me
Anybody watch these videos with you wanting it but never have money
Felt this :(
do you guys think that the price of these cameras will drop anytime soon?
Your channel is like a TECH NETFLIX. each video are like a perfect binge watching series.
I’m so glad to hear that you’re enjoying the content. Appreciate your continued support my friend.
I agree! This channel is extremely informative and interesting!!! Super helpful in helping us decide which camera to invest in!!!
I can't believe I just watched 28 minutes long video without a pause! You make it so interesting. You must be spending a lot of time learning all the features of each camera. I own the Sony a6100 and did not know a lot of about it until I watched this video. Probably there is more on your dedicated video. I need to find and watch it. By the way, you missed one important feature on the a6100. 100% silent shooting. For me, that the #1. I love my a6100. I get much sharper images from it than my Canon 80D while using with the Sigma 150-600mm (with MC-11). Not very comfortable combo, but images are superior. Anyway, you are doing awesome job! We are greatful to have you one of the RUclipsrs!
First, thank you for your time (and the kind words). I'm so glad the video was helpful. I'm curious to hear what you think of the detailed review.
Fantastic point about the silent shooting - thank you for contributing! That 150-600 is a fabulous lens! (and such a good value).
Thank you for being part of the channel!
Hy, I'm using canon 1200d with 55-250mm kit lens and now I want to shift to something better. I would love to know your thoughts on which camera should I get. I'm confused between a 6100 and a 6400. Also you mentioned that you use it with sigma 600mm is it directly compatible with the camera body or I need to get an adapter. I would love to know your thoughts. Also my instagram I'd is @bunchofpixls for portrait and @iamthenegitive for birds.
Super true
@@ribshubmathur5859 i think it's depend on your budget also. you can saved money by buying the a6100. and it's perform really good he said. i'm also looking for this a6100. a good investment. i also wonder about which lens that fit and compatible with this camera.
You know i just thought about this...........omg ...Job

That's the first time I watched a video that explained everything I wanted to know. Usually I have to use multiple sources
Amazing breakdown for newbies. Thanks for simplifying it in a clear way.

OMG! I am super glad I watched this video (again) because I've been saving for a canon m50 since everyone in youtube including veteran youtubers are highly and consistently recommending canon m50 as the best. But after listening to you attentively and taking notes of everything I'm starting to realize that sony a6100 is way far the better choice for an all-around purpose camera. again... i am super glad. great help.
I’ve really been going back and forth on what camera to get for my upcoming summer trips. Pretty sure I got my answer. I really appreciate the breakdown!!
Which one did you go with ? Do you like it ?
One of the best comprehensive tutorials I have seen. I was literally a click away from buying the M50 for live streaming. This video changed my mind. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for being part of and supporting the channel!
This is probably one of the best tech comparison videos I've ever seen. Love the tempo, love how you talk/intonations, and your overall delivery. Thank you!
Appreciate you taking the time to leave feedback. Thank you for being part of the channel!
@@TechGearTalk you deserve such comment and overall appreciation brother
Happened upon your video when looking for a “starting out” camera. Love how thorough you are. Thank you. 🤗

I have to say your videos are the best I have seen so far when it comes to camera specs. You explain so many details but without straining anyone's patience. Thank you so much!
Oh wow, thank so much Kurt 🙏 Glad you liked it! Appreciate you taking the time to leave feedback. Appreciate you being part of the channel.
This is how reviews and comparisons should be done. Awesome, I learn so much with each of your videos. Subbed, and thanks!
As someone who has always relied on my phone's camera, I finally broke and bought the Canon M50 last September. Since then, I have watched all your videos on it, and after months of daily use I finally feel like I'm starting to get the hang of both photography and video in manual modes.
There are some things in retrospect I wish I would've gotten the Sony for, primarily the 1080p 120fps mode for shooting slo-mo B roll, but overall Canon's super easy interface, fully articulating screen, and web cam software were all big selling points that helped me as a newbie to quickly pick up and play with decent results both with shooting photo/video and live streaming.
I just recently bought the Sigma F1.4 16mm and 30mm lenses (in part thanks to your review) and have been absolutely SHOCKED as how they have transformed my little M50. While the kit lens was great to get started, I'm just constantly blown away by both the photo and video performance of the Sigma lenses. I am a little sad thinking about how I'm now 100% locked into the EF-M world, but overall I'm super happy with my purchase. The M50 has literally changed my life!
Your channel absolutely sets the bar in terms of production quality and depth of information. You have become my go-to source before making any A/V equipment purchase. I'm currently looking at the DJI Ronin-SC gimbal (deeply discounted atm) and your video on it really taught me a lot. Would love to see your take on the newer Ronin RSC2!
Thanks for the great content!
If shooting 1080P 120Fps wasn't a factor would you still have chosen the M50
Good to see you again ⭐️ I hope you and your family is well during these difficult times ⭐️
Appreciate the kind words and the support, my friend 🙏
Definitely the best video about these cameras so far. Good job!!!
Awesome job! Very specific and in depth information.
I've never owned a DSLR camera and the last digital camera I bought was a cheap Panasonic Lumix in 2011. Since then, I've been using my phone to take photos. After doing a bunch of research on decent budget cameras, I've whittled it down to the M50 and A6100. It's a hard choice, but your video has mentioned so many things I hadn't known about either camera. I'm now leaning towards the A6100, as it seems to offer a lot more for a nominally higher cost.
Your technical fluency and expertise is awesome. You've also made me miss living in the north east. I worked on the first version of the warp stabilizer in After Effects!
Glad you liked it Greg! Appreciate you taking the time to leave such kind feedback 🙏 Awesome about working on warp stabilizer! Thanks for being part of the channel!
Awesome! Video helps with my decision on shooting RE photography in Cleveland.
Great comparison video, it really covered all the aspects and helped me make up my mind for sure. Thank you very much!
One of most helpful video i have ever seen! Thank you
So glad I could help!
Timestamps, amazingly indepth info. Perfect video!
thanks.
heading of to buy the a6100
So glad it was helpful - appreciate the feedback. Thanks for being part of and supporting the channel.
Faaaantastic comparison! Really well put together and organised. Really helpful! Thanks a lot!
Such a detailed analysis and you still managed to keep me glued for thr entire video. Thanks for all the information. I was confused between M50 and A6100, but no more now.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for being part of the channel!
Thanks so much for this informative video !
I am a classical pianist and I‘m looking a camera for good video quality but what‘s important for me is that it can be connected with external microphones to record higher quality. I think a lot of musicians would be interested on hearing your opinion on that and if you also have other suggestions for cameras.
Thanks

These two cameras make up my content creation bag. They compliment each other's shortcomings well, and have the 2 best AF systems none to man
No doubt!
This is exactly the review I needed! Thank you!!!
I’m so torn. I want both. Thanks for the video. Appreciate the work you put into your content 😊!
Thanks for the very informative video. You do a wonderful job of articulating benefits and features while remaining objective. Nice post-production, also. You definitely go the extra mile to keep the review engaging.
Quick question: What video editing platform are you using to do your post-production?
Thanks - Norm
Thank you so much Norm - appreciate you being part of and supporting the channel. I edit all my videos in Adobe Premiere Pro.
Man, what a humble, helpful guy, thanks for everything dude!!
we need more people like this on youtube and less fake arrogant 'influencer' a**holes
Oh wow - I super appreciate the kind words and support 🙏 Thanks for being part of the channel!
Nice one mate!
Love your detailed review, you certainly helped me to make a decision between the two.
Thank you so much.
Keep up the good work!
This was fantastically thorough and helpful. Just what I was looking for so thank you! 👏
You're so welcome! Thanks for being part of the channel!
Here in 2022... If you're deciding between these two, there's no competition really. It's the A6100 all day, every day.
I've owned a Canon M100, M3, M50, 5DIII, and a Sony A7III, A6000 and A6100. The A6100 is the only one I still own.
I don't have a professional need to own a full-frame anymore (if I did, it'd probs still be an A7III to be honest - if I needed more punch, I'd rent it) - but all joking aside, there's a LOT of pro scenarios an A6100 will handle just fine with good glass attached. The M50 can't really handle any.
Photog wise, the A6100's AF functionality kicks the M50 into the corner. It's still phenomenal in 2022. Image quality is probably the area the pair are most evenly matched for the price bracket.
In video? Ermagerd.
The M50 can do 4k 24fps at a hefty crop, with no dual pixel AF. It can do 120fps, at 720p only with no audio. That's the end of the upsides. That's the sum-total of its high end capabilities.
The A6100 can shoot 4k at 24fps with full AF and no crop, and 30fps with full AF and a minor crop; it can also shoot 120fps at full HD with full AF, and audio, as well as S&Q modes for in-camera slo-mo / effective timelapse, plus it has built-in intervalometer, and no recording limit. It can do clean HDMI out, plus record 4.2.2 on an external source.
The price difference for that functionality is negligible this far from release, and E mount is far more supported than EF-M mount; any form factor grudges can be negated with a cage from Amazon, and the viewfinders / screens are the same in practise. The only real advantage the M50 retains in 2022 on the A6100 is an articulating screen. This genuinely can be a deal-breaker, but if it is, you should look elsewhere entirely - the M50 just isn't worth it nowadays simply for an artic screen.
The M50 is a high-end/expensive "fun" APS-C camera; the A6100 is a mid-range/cheap "pro" APS-C camera. It is insane what they packed into that body and how well it stands up against pro-kit, for the price, a few years after its release. The M50 by contrast could never be used, reliably, in a pro situation beyond fairly basic photog.
Spend the extra dollar, and the extra time watching tutorials (such as @Tech Gear Talk of course!) on how to get the most out of your camera body - the A6100 will serve you for a lifetime, both personally and for a surprising portion of pro work. The M50 will satisfy you fine if you're just doing family photog and have money to burn, but if you're looking for more from your camera, it will frustrate you until you decide to spend the extra on a better body.
Great video! I'd love to see you do a comparison of modern aps-c cameras like a6100 versus old full frame like a7ii, that would be great! Subscribed!
Thank you for the kind words and support! Great suggestions!
Thank you for putting this work out, it has cleared up some things in my head for me about getting a new camera.
Happy to help! Thanks for being part of the channel!
Outstanding review. Thanks for sharing your expertise and passion for photography!
That refreshed my memories☺️
Thank you Sagi for another informative content.
You are very welcome, my friend.
Such a good review! I think I'm going to go with the M50 b/c in Canada its about a $300 difference right now...
Appreciate it Rahat! I definitely get what you're saying there with the cost!
Starting to try to step up my video and photography game and had NOOOO idea where to start but thankfully I found your channel! Thanks so much for the breakdown of these two cameras.
I'm so glad I've been able to help!
OMG. Dude. Thanks. This helped this beginner a BUNCH. Appreciate an understandable explanation for folks like me.
Thanks for this outstanding comparison video. I already have Canon and Sony older model cameras-love the color renderings and menu ease of Canon; the premium feel, form factor sharpness and accuracy of Sony. Ques: Can you tell me definitively whether the A6100 offers silent shutter shooting? Conflicting research abounds about this for this model. Be well.
I've had the M50 since it came out and it still meets my needs. You're so right about being aware of how you plan to use the camera when comparing specs. Btw, I've been applying your "buy it nice"mantra to other things while shopping. It's so true!
Super appreciate you taking the time to share. It's really important to me that people don't get all caught up in the specs game - at the end of the day, you need a tool that works for you. Glad the the Buy It Nice mantra is working out for you - took me a few "fails" before I realized it.
Very nice and helpful video. Great photos too! Thank you.
We are a greek RUclips channel but we also started the last year with shooting weddings, advertises etc . Although we shoot with Sony and Canon ecosystems from the higher end models.... I really wanted to thank you since your videos helped out a ton as we grow our channel but also our understanding about cameras and the way they work...and I mean it . Understanding and shooting with lower end models helps you to make better videos with your high end equipment . Also since I watched almost every video of your channel and as a owner of the m50 as my fourth camera I really would like to see a video with this little beast and the speedbooster . You already made a video with the speedbooster but I realized that many didn't understand that if you don't have a full frame lens it wouldn't work as expected and I think you have got a lot of room to show different lens options..... Greetings from Greece and THANK YOU for your videos. PS .... SONY IS ALMOST PERFECT, but CANON RULES .....
I love the fully articulated touch screen of the M50 and that’s something the Sony A6100 doesn’t really have. I think I might go for the M50 still indecisive
I really like that feature as well 👍🏻
Canon made in Japan cameras, with a fine menu system -- sounds good to me :)
Got the Canon M50 with double zoom lens kit yesterday. I need to save for the macro lens. It’s around 340 USD. This is my beginner camera. Need to watch a lot videos.

Perfectly clear !!! It helped me a lot to take a decision thank you 😊
Absolutely brilliant review this has answered all my questions in 1 go
Glad I could help. Thanks for being part of the channel!
Great video, the sony seems like the better option. I've been heavily into looking at cameras the last few weeks trying to understand what is the best first camera for me because I've always wanted to get into photography. Out of interest, what camera would you recommend? Doesn't have to be either of these if you can think of a different camera, but I'd be using it for travel and landscape photography mainly and I'm not really bothered about video performance. Looking to spend up to £700 ($1000). Thanks :)
Love the content you make! I feel like there is a camera that you are potentially missing out on for "budget streaming", the canon m200. It has clean hdmi for streaming and is the same image quality as a canon m50. It is basically the same camera as a m50 just no viewfinder, and no audio jack but it has clean hdmi.
I definitely need to make a video about the M200 - appreciate it! Thanks for being part of the channel!
Definitely need that continuous shots while taking pictures of a toddler I already do that with my phone and I always have to look through tons of pics to find a nice one
Excellent presentation and comparison. Subscribed, and thanks for your hard work 👍
I am a wedding videographer and i tested using sony and canon, and there is a hug difference if we talk about using both cameras in kit lenses. The sony is good, but i don't like the color, it requires color grading a lot to get the right skin tone and lastly the auto-focus of the sony sometimes gives me back focus, but slowmo and 4k sony is great. For M50 color is great, auto-focus is really amazing and it's easy to control the cam, especially if you use it with gimbal
Thank you for your honesty.
So after a while of researching I’ve come to the conclusion that to me the cameras are equal 😂. Now I just have to decide. It’s my first camera and I’ve heard the M50 is much easier for beginners, but I’m planning on keeping this camera for a long time so I could learn both the same one day. Great video! Thanks for the super helpful content! One side note, is the animal eye focus a deal breaker or can the M50 still focus onto animals/dogs well enough? Thank you.
Just watched a few of your videos and they have been extremely helpful! Thanks for the comparison.
Glad you like them! Thanks for being part of the channel!
This was the best video I’ve seen on these two
This video was fantastic - appreciated every minute. Only thing I wish it had was direct comparisons - your photography and videography is beautiful, but it's also good to see the same image side by side or one after the other per camera, as well as without post-production. I'm a musician and streamer looking to invest in time (gotta save up), and so far the M50 has been my top choice, but the lack of clean HDMI is a real bummer, especially because I move a fair amount when I play so disabling autofocus to get clean HDMI likely isn't feasible. I know the Canon software is still in beta but it doesn't seem great, and I'm on Mac which isn't compatible. With kit lenses the Sony is quite a bit more expensive here in the UK (£650 vs £750), and I really prefer the articulating screen in the Canon, but perhaps it'd be a better option to work towards. The other thing that seemed to stand out in your video was that Canon's images look a tad oversaturated compared to the Sony, but I can't tell if this is just because of the choice of photos put into the video, because many of the Sony ones are more industrial and low-light type photos. Any thoughts? Thanks again so much!
Hi Courtney - a few things. First, don't worry about the Canon color being saturated, that would be my editing. If you're going to stream and are wanting that awesome Canon color, look at this: ruclips.net/video/Nir8pfvfdFI/видео.html
I don't know how long your streams are, but the Sony can be powered via USB while running which is amazing for long streams. With the M50, there is a solution that uses a coupler: ruclips.net/video/TOpsG_jlEbU/видео.html
The streaming software is available for Mac now - it is a lower resolution though.
I hope this helps.
@@TechGearTalk Thanks so much!
You're very welcome.
Very well done (and unbiased) comparison! If I was completely new and didn't already have a 10 year investment in the Canon system (lens, flashes, etc) I would definitely consider this Sony. But based on your review, I don't think I'm missing out on a lot with the M50 for my uses.
Thanks so much for the kind words Jim. If you already have glass, it’s a no-brainer to get the M50. I love that camera! Thank you for being part of the channel!
Incredible content, incredible information, incredible attention to detail This channel deserves more views these things are helpful
I'm so glad the video was helpful and I'm very appreciative of the kind words and support!
I thought this was a long video but as I started watching I learned many things time passed so fast. Great vid
Glad to hear it!Appreciate you being part of the channel!
What a comprehensive and fair comparison! If I had to start over, I'd go with the M50 for its ease of use for a beginner. There was a steep learning curve with my A6000 but it was worth it in the long run. I'm really looking forward to Sony's next iteration and hope to see a fully articulating screen and full touchscreen capability. What would you like to see improved in the M50 and A6100?
Appreciate the kind words an insight.
In the M50 I want to see uncropped 4k, 4k30, 4k with dual pixel af, 1080p at 120fps with autofocus, clean hdmi output, usb charging, audio levels and editing during recording.
a6100 - like you fully articulating full touch screen - and better skintones.
Great presentation I think I wii be going for the a6100
Great choice , what made you go for the sony?
Great comparison! Answered ALL my questions - thanks :)

@@TechGearTalk Your welcome!! Thank you as well !!! Keep up the awesome content!!
"Buy it nice or buy it twice". I like! True saying!
Hey Sagi. Super video as always. Great comparative information and your real life preference. The a6100 has some great features, but I still think the M50 gets the vote...just. Given the a6100 features that beat the M50, it will be interesting to see how Canon comes back at that with the M50 mk2. Really hope the 4K DPAF issue and higher frame rates are the top items for Canon to resolve. If they do, and can do something on low light performance I think they'll be back on top. Stay safe and healthy Sagi.🙏 Ray
Thanks so much Ray, yeah, I'm super excited about the MKII - let's go Canon!
@@TechGearTalk heyy, can you help me with choice between a6100 and canon m50 mark ii, really confused.
By far one of the best comparison videos I've ever seen! and based on your information presented, I'll be getting the Sony as my second camera. I'll miss the "flippy screen" but as a B cam, I shouldn't need it as much.
Thank you so much for this amazing video.

Thank you so much for the kind words. That's a good idea! Appreciate you.
I would love to see a6400 vs EOS RP. Still the RF prices are insane
Is EOS RP APS-C, ain't it unfair to compare.
@Entertainment and Ideas thanks!
@@amitkrupal1234 Pretty fair actually. RP has really bad dynamic range, most modern APS-C sensors beat it hands down. Check DPReviews comparison charts. The only RF models worth getting is R5/6.
Thanks a lot, man. It helps me a lot in choosing which one is best for me.
First of all I loved your video, I usually don't comment but I liked your video so much it's so professional I couldn't control my emotions, I feel you are the most underrated RUclipsr, the quality content you provide you should atleast have atleast 10M subscribers.

AWESOME Review! Thanks for all your help! Sony, here I come!!!
So glad I was able to help - congrats!! Welcome to the channel!
Thank you for this review! It was very informative. I've been researching both of these cameras, including the Canon - EOS M50 Mark II. My plan is to use this for landscape pictures and pictures of people. I do like the 4k video options on the A6100. Any recommendations on the Canon - EOS M50 Mark II vs. the Sony A6100?
you solved my problem man i was so confused with m50 as it was getting old and better options were releasing day by day . Your this video helped me take a big decision .
Hats off to you ❤❤❤❤
Awesome video mate! Love seeing entry level cameras getting some love 👌
So glad it was helpful David - thank you for the kind words. Appreciate you being part of the channel!
Hey there, I got my M50 in the last week and I love it. It's perfect for my needs, but I have one huge complaint. As you know the battery life isn't the best and when I have to change it out when recording video, the battery door that's on the bottom is too wide to be able to pop it open and swap batteries when the quick release plate is mounted on the tripod, so I have to remove the camera from the tripod and then remove the quick release plate to swap batteries or change out the memory card. It's terrible. But, thanks to you, I learned of the DC power plug to shoot continuously and now I don't have to open the door to remove the battery while recording... It's such a great tip, much appreciated!!
Your right but I got a solution for you as I was also having the same issue. And it only cost me $3, just buy a metal extension tube with the female to female threats. This has solve the issue as now I can keep my camera on the tripod and have enough room to remove the battery. Plus have that additional metal extension has allow me to now hold my camera much better as it acts as a nice grip holder. Email me and I can send you a pick so you know how it looks like. The metal extension I picked it up a my local camera store.
I use a Joby 3k for my m50. If you point the narrower end of the quick release plate toward the lens the battery compartment will open completely.
Glad that solution was helpful Steve!
@@DocBoA Thanks for taking the time to give me your solution. Unfortunately, I have to use a full size tripod that has a horizontal bar accessory and a ballhead since I set my camera up and record oil painting tutorials. I do love the Jobys though, wish your solution worked for me!!
@@TechGearTalk I use the coupler EVER SINGLE DAY because of you and I love it. Cannot say thank you enough.
I sold my a6400 due to the colour science, I'm so happy with my M50, I know I can shoot without too much editing and the colours just pop naturally! Skin tones are also a huge factor in going back to Canon.
Bro loved the vid and the comparison, kinda wonder a couple days ago why you didn't have this comparison, thank you!
It's been long overdue! You're absolutely right. Glad you liked it.
Thank you for posting this! I have been trying to figure out what first camera I wanted for a mix of video and photo use. This was incredibly detailed but still accesible. Can't wait to learn more from your videos!
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for being part of the channel!
Great video as always man!
I have to give it to the A6100 because it gives a more true to life image. Also being able to add all the e-mount lenses even if they're full frame its just very enjoyable without any additional adapters. I wish it had a nice touchscreen tho...
The M50 is great as well but the Canon look is too present in the images. I always feel like it's a pre-baked image or something. Other then that the touchscreen is really nice and in overal it's an enjoyable camera.
Greetings from the Netherlands!
Appreciate you always checking out the videos and your continued support Gary! Thank you for the insight about your thought process - and greetings form the US!
The settings for color, sharpness, etc. are adjustable on any camera. Just tweak down the setting on the Canon is it is too punchy, or something. As for lenses, you may try Sigma for Sony, unless doing up the scale from Sony kit lenses, to get better results. Sony kits are known to be as good as there menu system -- not so great. The Sony auto focus is great. Sony has improved their color science, which is a good thing. A better comparison to the Sony in the Canon line is the Canon M6 mark II. The whole kit, with viewer should be around $1K, but look for discounts to come. By Christmas, depending on the dollar value, I am predicting up to $300 discounts on the whole kit. Of course Sony will discount as well.
Phenomenal video! I’m doing some research to buy my first camera and these are the two I’m stuck between, the Sony seemed to win in most categories so it was the one I was thinking about buying, but I keep hearing good things about canon’s color science that keeps me hesitant from pulling the trigger (I also really want that articulating screen).
Any advice?
Also can you explain what you meant by that “Sony look” does Sony not do well with colors and skin tones?
@@bigthinker-zp3sg Whenever I hear people talk about Canon's color science its like, everyone is going to check each & every image. People remember Camera is a tool with unlimited possibilities, its the person creativity that makes it great. Watch Piximperfect's video to change skin tones if required.
Amit Krupal thanks! very good point, I hadn’t even thought about changing the colors myself. I’m still a little on the fence about which one to get, but that’s just because I’m super indecisive. Thanks for your help though!
what camera did you chose
thank you for your continued education. You have become my go-to resource for vlogging equipment, especially cameras
I’m so glad I’ve been able to help. Thank you for being part of the channel!
Thanks for such detailed video
Great video hey btw you look lile the guy from friends lol
Thank you so much for watching and for the kind words.
WE WERE ON A BREAK!!! 😂🤣
Hello, appreciate your advices! I need camera for fashion and fitness editorials, which kit (camera +lens ) will u recommend for me? Also plan to use for instagram photos/videos
The truth is that both would do a good job. If you want 4k, slow motion and better high ISO performance - a6100. If you want a more user-friendly camera, you're going to film in 1080p and you like the idea of a fully articulating touch screen and better color (IMO) out of the camera - M50. Hope that helps. Thanks for joining the channel.
Excellent, excellent, excellent review thanks for your awesome work
I've been recording videos using the a6000 and have narrowed it between these two cameras to upgrade to. This was the best comparison of the two that I've seen yet! Thanks for making an extremely thorough but also very enjoyable video to watch :)
Glad it was helpful Rena! If you got the a6100, you could just get the body and re-use your lenses (plus you get 4K with no additional crop, 120fps for slow motion, usb charging and better low light performance). Hope that helps.
@@TechGearTalk Thank you! I ended up getting the a6100. LOVE the image quality, however, the video quality is so sharp, almost too sharp and shows every pore haha so I'm hoping to tone that down somehow.
I purchased my A6100 back in March. It was between the M50 and the A6100. Literally you covered everything I considered. The only things the M50 had over the A6100 was the touch screen functionality and the articulating screen. I'm more of a button pusher anyway when it comes to using menus, and I'm using it more as a video camera. It has a clear advantage in the video department. It was a no brainier for me. Thanks for the comprehensive review!
Congrats and thanks for the kind words!
I want to start a channel for makeup and vlogging, which camera would you recommend?
Both would work great because of the outstanding autofocus. The M50 is easier to use. I also like the color of the M50, specifically for skin tones. If you really want 4K, then the a6100. I hope that helps - thank you for being part of the channel!
Very informative. Thanks for putting this together! I wish you also had a comparison with Fujifilm x-t200
Very detailed and you made it interesting.! I never watched full review video but this time I watched it even without pausing the video :p thanks man!
So glad it was helpful! Thanks for being part of the channel
@@TechGearTalk I found the price much higher than you said/ showed in the video.
These cameras are about 800 dollars on amazon now. Geez
Crazy how the price went up
@@CeoABcompany why iphone 12? You mean people considering cameras are actually choosing the phone?
@@chrisfaliao4675 phones have improved a lot specially iphone 12 and I think it's cool, but it's just a fraction of what dslrs and mirrorless cameras provide
Yeah, why did these cameras go up so much?!
Covid bro! plus supply and demand! so folks who have these cameras are overpricing so that they can upgrade to something better! there are enough people who will pay the outrageous prices! It took me 4 tries just to get my a5100 for $300.00 on ebay because I stuck with my budget for the REAL COST and added a kit 50mm for about $80.00.
I'm a RUclips singer and have been using a Canon Rebel T3i for years now and in desperate need of an upgrade. Any recommendations for a more professional-looking indoor (mainly) video shoots in a room with LED lights? Thanks for this amazing review!
If you’re lighting is good, you’re way ahead of the game. Do you need to record for more than 30 minutes at a time? If not, check out the M50 or M50mkii, otherwise the a6100 is a good option.
@@TechGearTalk thank you so much!! I do record about 5-10 mins at a time for my music but after some research I’m gearing towards a cam with a flipscreen and more recent since I’ll be using it for many years to come. I was thinking of the a6400 or a AC7 ff cam (which I know is not relevant to this video). Do you think that’s overkill for just shooting good quality indoor music videos? Thanks again!!
It’s not overkill, but u less you’re grading footage shot in slog2/3 or hlg, you can save money and get the a6100 ruclips.net/video/TrAe8XaYwwY/видео.html
@@TechGearTalk appreciate it! 🙏🏻
👍🏻
I’ve been watching all your videos while quarantined here in nyc and your attention to detail on every video is incredible. I knew nothing about filmmaking and feel like I’ve had a free film school. I’m a stand up comedian and I’m going to get an M50 to film my sets when comedy is up and running again. I just wanted to thank you for making the information easily understandable and entertaining!
Super glad the videos have been helpful and I appreciate you taking the time to leave feedback. Tag me on IG when you post some comedy stuff. Try not to burn anymore money in the microwave 😂🤣
You have good material, timing and delivery - keep it up!
Tech Gear Talk Thank you! That’s was a video from when I first started but I really appreciate the positive feedback! I will for sure send you some videos I make as you’re a major reason I’ll be able to film them. Keeps making the great content!
You're very welcome. Can't wait to see it!
