#BEST MIRRORLESS FRAME CAMERA FOR VIDEO 1080P#
The image for video is just fine, though keep in mind you only get HD 1080p and not 4K. $399 is not bad given all you get with Canon’s Rebel T6. Why: Inexpensive, but enough features and capability to get the job done in most situations. Also consider: Sony Alpha a7S III ($3,499), Sony Alpha a6500 ($1,299), Canon EOS 90D ($1,199) Best Beginner Camera on a Budget: I now use the GH5 for about 90% of our projects here on Stark Insider.

I was a former Canon DSLR video shooter (T2i->60D->70D->80D). What more could you possibly want? At its price point, nothing comes close. Dual image stabilization (when used with compatible lens). If you shoot serious video there’s no question the GH5 needs to be on your short list. The GH5 - a successor to the widely heralded GH4 - is one of, if not the most exciting camera releases in recent years. Panasonic promised a lot, and it delivered even more. Why: Best-in-class features for video shooters including 10-bit 4:2:2 files, dual SD cards, filmmaking tools (focus peaking, waveform monitor, optional log mode), and 4K/60 for slow motion. Also consider: Sony Alpha a6000 ($548), Nikon D3400 ($499+), Canon EOS Rebel T6 ($389) Best Camera for Video: And, unlike a smartphone, the lens is interchangeable (Canon EF mount) so there’s lots of opportunity to learn about choosing and using lenses for the right shooting scenarios.

There’s a first class 45-point auto-focus system, easy-to-use menus, and all the latest technology including wi-fi and Bluetooth. Yes, it’s an entry level camera, but Canon didn’t skimp. A lot of that has to do with a stellar 24MP APS-C sensor. In the T7i you’re getting everything the company has learned about building cameras in a package that screams quality. Why: Easy to use with advanced features including outstanding auto-focus and a high performance 24MP sensor.Ĭanon makes some of the best DSLRs, so it may not be a surprise that I think this is one of the best bodies to jumpstart your photography or videography pursuits.

Recently I’ve narrowed our in-house arsenal and use one of three camera bodies for Stark Insider video projects: Some I rent, others I borrow, generous friends often lend a hand and trust me with their gear, and a few I own. Every camera on this list is one I’ve used at least once - either for an actual project or for a camera test (disclosure: except for the Hasselblad as you might have guessed). I have an important rule for these kinds of lists: I need to have personally handled and shot with a camera for it to get a mention. Here’s an example of a video we shot for LUZIA by Cirque du Soleil: WATCH: LUZIA by Cirque du Soleil - A Waking Dream of MexicoĪnd a travel film 3 DAYS IN ICELAND: WATCH: 3 DAYS IN ICELANDĪ film project by Clinton and Loni Stark.
