I swear Canon is my favorite, but I needed a small mirrorless camera to walk around with that was close to the specs of my Canon80D. I picked this up for my birthday. I know that everybody is switching to Sony for 4K video, but I’m still happy with 1080p. It does look sharper but I can do way more with 1080p 60 fps than most people can do with 4k. The question is, is this camera good in 2017? I believe it is. Most people think because it’s not the newest camera then it’s garbage. That is not true with this camera.
I like it so far, but it took me a long time to get the XAVC video settings to work with the correct SD card. That was a pain in the ass. What are your thoughts on this camera? From using this for a few days, I like it. It’s not the best camera in the world, but it does the job. I needed something to slide in my pocket if I need to hide it. I film in places most people don’t want to, so I need something small to hide if I have to. If anyone has any tips about this camera, please let me know. Thanx!!!
