Probably the best reviewer of cameras out there for us folks who want the facts. Clear, concise, informative and unbiased. Very useful. Keep going, Maarten - great work.
+Maarten Heilbron My only guess is that previous Rebels didn't have features like the upper LCD screen and the back dial to change aperture settings (it required a button you have to hold to toggle between EV and Aperture control with the single dial up top). I've seen people gripe on forums about how that lack of control limits the camera, though how that matters is beyond me. Other than that, picture quality was still very good and the Rebel cameras were capable picture/movie capturing machines for the price.
+minstryl They've always been excellent entry level cameras, and while they've not had the features of the higher end models, as you say - capable image and video cameras for the price. Rebels are always particularly well bundled with lenses and other starter gear at retail.
hi Maarteen. perfect video and explanation. wich camera will you recomend between canon 750d and nikon d5500? my preferences are image quality and also videos. I would apreciate your opinion. thanks 😉
In my mind, unless there's a specific feature on has that the other is missing, that you choose based on your brand preference, or your hand size. I find the Canon a little small for my hand, but that's a very idiosyncratic reason.
Should have disc discovered your channel earlier, I love your videos, just had one question though, would you recommend the t6i /t6s over the panasonic g7? Thanks in advance.
I think you have discovered my channel at exactly the right time, and thank you very much for your kind words. I would recommend the Panasonic over the Canon only if you are primarily shooting video, want 4K and if you have no existing Canon lenses.
Canon has not provided encoding details for this model. If those are concerns of yours, you should select another camera where those details are provided. Have a look at the Fujifilm X-T4, which provides a great deal of advanced video functionality and settings. ruclips.net/video/799f0nlD3-I/видео.html
GREAT video Maarten, i am looking into a camera, especially this one particular. Would you recommend this for Vlogging everyday content and pictures, or have you tried any of the GoPro's out there for Vlogs and picture quality? Would like an opinion as well. I enjoyed the field test on your hands on review.
Thanks for the kind words, and taking the time to comment. It's a great camera, and the flip screen makes it selfie and vlogging friendly, but I think that in general you'd like a smaller, lighter camera so that you can hold it at arms length (or on a selfie stick) easily. The Canon G7X (I or II) is a popular choice, as is the Sony A5100. Although I've never reviewed one, I've used several GoPros and have never been happy with the results except on the sunniest of days. (Maybe I'm not "extreme" enough.) For vlogging, unless you're doing external audio recording and syncing in post, the GoPro audio quality is not good. Hope this helps.
+Romel Madlangbayan I'm not the best judge of image quality - I generally refer to the tests at dpreview or dxomark. That said, I'm very fond of the colour rendition in Fuji out of camera jpegs - really my favourite across all brands. However, I was really amazed by the amount of information in the Canon RAW files, which enabled me to recover clouds and blue sky from what really seemed to be blown out highlights. If you're prepared to spend some time in Lightroom, I'd recommend the T6S just for the latitude it provides in post.
Hi Maarten, I saw your Nikon d5500 review video and this one and I have to say you make great videos covering every detail. I am a beginner in photography and I'm in dilemma which to buy nikon d5500 or canon 760d. I'll use it for photography only and this'll be my first dslr. As you've reviewed both of 'em I'd like you to help me out in choosing one. Thanks!!!
Both are great cameras. Unless there's a specific function that one has, I'd pick one based on price, how it feels in your hand and the brand you prefer.
Maarten Heilbron I'm in the same dilemma as you, I know i mentioned it before on the d5500 video you done , but going for the 760D plus a friend of mine who I detail his bike does videography on a canon so be a good talking point plus share lenses and help etc , and always look for your videos when searching first as always a pleasure and in-depth information you provide, Thanks Chris
nice review MH..I have a question about back button focus as I've been thinking on trying a Canon after selling my OMD EM5.. is it the same with other cameras where while holding the back button it acts in AI Servo or AF continuous..and when you let go it will be in One Shot/AF-S or locks the focus?
+Romel Madlangbayan Thanks for the kind words. There are several configuration possibilities (I didn't describe them all in the video) in its simplest form, the focus is lifted from the shutter button and transferred to the asterisk button. When you press the asterisk, the T6S focusses, in whatever mode it's in.Option 2 (controlled by custom function 10) can pause the AI Servo AF mode, locking focus until the shutter is pressed. Download the manual to read all the details. Hope this helps.
Thanks for your reply. I should have been more precise. I ment: Is it able to show a microphone audio level indicator while recording? -So that I can see if its peaking during recording.
My fault really. There is no display - which is why I made the comment about the level adjustment. I'd really recommend an external recorder if audio is important to you.
Good review! Still no 1080p60, while Panasonic, Sony and Samsung offer 4K? Canon is stuck in ancient times. I wonder have you tried 720p60? On the T4i/EOSM it is markedly worse than 1080p, and I mean plain horrible, having low resolution, moire and stairstepping, which means that the T4i/EOSM is unusable for 60p. Looking at your sample, at 15:00-15:10 check out the girl on the left in black... I mean not the girl but the wooden post behind her - see the "collar" on the top of that post, how it changes color from black to reddish? Canon still cannot deliver decent video quality in its DSLRs - even Nikon now does better.
+ConsumerDV Thanks for the kind words. It is odd, but this is really a part-time video solution, particularly with the somewhat crippled HDMI out. I didn't create any samples in 720p60, sorry. The video mode is fine for shooting non-critical holiday footage and candid video of your kids, it's not designed for serious shooters. I think it's unfair to expect more in this class. Video enthusiasts (even those not yet looking for 4K) should look elsewhere. The HDR mode shots are 720 and show a clear quality deterioration, and not a great deal of added range. The gain on that shot in the concert is pretty high, so I didn't judge that shot too harshly.
I hope that I'm understanding your question properly. The 50mm lens is a fixed focal length lens, so in order to get closer (or further) from a subject you need to use your feet. The 18-135 zoom enables you to move closer (or further) from your subject by changing the focal length. So, you don't need to buy the lens as long as you're willing and able to move closer.
I invite you to watch as many times as you need. You know that you can play them at slower than real time? (the gear icon has speed and resolution options)

What a pleasure to read your kind words. Those are indeed the goals for my videos, and I'm glad to hear that they're successful.
By far one of the most in depth reviews I've ever watched. Kept my attention and whole time and extremely informative. Thanks and great job
I'm very thankful for your kind and generous comments.
agreed
Hello Maarten, great review/tutorial, very professional as always, it’s truly a pleasure to watch your videos.
Rick.
+RickBSO As always, I appreciate your interest, your support and your comments. Thanks for the kind words.
Great job! Really clear and detailed!
It's a pleasure to read you kind words, thanks.
I've since moved on to the 5D, but this camera is a cheaper and worthy competitor to my 2 year old 70D. Interesting.
+Devin Chaves Liked it more than I thought I would. Not sure why Rebels so often get a bad rap.
+Maarten Heilbron My only guess is that previous Rebels didn't have features like the upper LCD screen and the back dial to change aperture settings (it required a button you have to hold to toggle between EV and Aperture control with the single dial up top).

My pleasure, thanks for the kind words.
What a Brill review theirs option on this camera that I never knew canon did, and no. One else covers these in there review. Well done sir, well done.
Thank you. It was a pleasure to read your kind words.
Thanks a lot, excellent review, helped a lot to get this instead of d5500
Thanks for the kind words, always nice to hear that viewers find my content useful.
Should have disc
discovered your channel earlier, I love your videos, just had one question though, would you recommend the t6i /t6s over the panasonic g7? Thanks in advance.

+Maarten Heilbron thanks for the response. Keep creating n I'll keep watching.
Will do.
In 760d it is given standard for video shoot , what does it mean ? Is it better than IPB or lower than IPB or equivalent ALL-I ?

Always my pleasure.
Hi Maarten..looking at image quality..which do you prefer? X-T10 or T6S?

Hey! Can the Canon 750D/760D show an audio level indicator on the screen while recording video?
-And thanks for the great review.
Thanks for the kind words. No, the level can't be adjusted, so there's no point.
Thanks for your reply. I should have been more precise. I ment: Is it able to show a microphone audio level indicator while recording? -So that I can see if its peaking during recording.
My fault really. There is no display - which is why I made the comment about the level adjustment. I'd really recommend an external recorder if audio is important to you.
Thanks a lot! I didn´t catch it in the video.

It's my pleasure, thanks for the kind words.
thanks again Maarten..
+Romel Madlangbayan Always my pleasure.
Can you recommend me an objective?
What are you planning to shoot? Canon's large aperture prime lenses are usually the best choice.
@@MaartenHeilbron I want shoot some Fotos from me.
@@eqbalamiri3506 The 35mm would probably be a good choice. However, for selfies, you might want a smaller focal length - 16mm or 23mm.
are all this pictures taken with the kit lens ?
+EpicBroNL They are. You'll find all the photo details on flickr.
which lens is it ?
+EpicBroNL 18-135
Hi, just a question, If I owned a 50mm lens for my canon t6s, do I need to buy 18-135mm lens for zooming my subjects? Thanks
I hope that I'm understanding your question properly. The 50mm lens is a fixed focal length lens, so in order to get closer (or further) from a subject you need to use your feet. The 18-135 zoom enables you to move closer (or further) from your subject by changing the focal length. So, you don't need to buy the lens as long as you're willing and able to move closer.
If this could record 1080p I would have no headache deciding anymore..
??? You don't need aspirin. It records 1080p at 24, 25 and 30 frames per second.
***** oh wow, I forgot mentioning that I meant 1080p at 60fps.
Thanks for your review, by far the best of the 760D I've seen yet. helped me a lot :)
Right - that it doesn't do. Doesn't do 4K either. Thanks for the kind words.
however it still wobbling while find a focus
As contrast detection does
imma have to watch this video a few times before i understand what you just said. #camerarookie
I invite you to watch as many times as you need. You know that you can play them at slower than real time? (the gear icon has speed and resolution options)
I Got 760D but in Raw Quality and Movie rec. Size Max is 50.00P ???is not 59.94P ? is that different :(
The frame rate is based on the video system setting. In PAL only 50P is available. 59.94 is available with NTSC.
Great stuff.
+Devin Chaves Thanks for the kind words.
Does the camera have a flash?
It does.
***** Built-in flash?
Yes
Best review...
Thank you very much!
There IS a USB port. Great camera.
That's good news!
Why are all your pictures blurred?
I'm sorry ... what am I missing?
Great Review Top 1
That’s very kind, thanks!
T6S or SL2
I would judge these are relatively equivalent - so either is a good choice.
! Cimb adds is too long.....
I don't follow?
... otherwise a great review!
Um, thanks. I think.
