so you want to know what type of camera to use for YouTube? Well whether you're
just starting out or you're a super-duper pro, there's a different type
of camera for every situation, but I want to show you one camera that I really
recommend for almost everybody as well as different cameras that work for you
depending on what stage of your journey are in.
hello and welcome to the queendom
I'm Sarah Ingle i pointed up like this like Sarah Ingle. she's up there. today
we're gonna talk about one of my favorite things in the world we're gonna
drum roll cameras I love cameras and you can't see but I'm like surrounded by
cameras my main camera I usually shoot with is obviously over here I'm pointing
at you because I like imagine that your guys like are sitting inside the lens
there anyway but I want to talk about what camera is
best for people to use when you're just starting you two we're wanting to start
YouTube so we're gonna start off with cameras people who either haven't
started YouTube yet maybe you've just done a couple videos I wanna know what's
the best camera for for someone to start off with the best camera to start off
with should we do another drum roll no we won't do another drum roll it's just
whatever camera you have I just got the new iPhone 11 Pro yesterday which was
the day came out so you guys will be seeing this Monday so I got it Friday
which was for me yesterday but for you okay I just got the new iPhone 11 Pro
and this thing is amazing I would have shown you my iPhone 10 had I filmed this
yesterday morning and and showed you examples of videos that I have filmed on
my camera they have really good cameras though they've come a long ways like if
this was like back with an iPhone 4 was that the first one that did video maybe
I don't know but that you would it would not have been
and here's the thing when you're starting YouTube everybody no matter if
you're filming on like like a movie studio set with the fanciest cameras
ever or you're filming with a webcam from an old computer your first videos
you're gonna look back at them and cringe I guarantee this is something
about those first ones it's just like oh you feel like you haven't learned yet
it's just it's not the time to be worrying about whether or not you have a
fancy enough camera you've got to get out there and practice making what you
want to make and see if you really like it because let me tell you making it to
the point where you can be making any substantial amount of money on YouTube
is a big journey you've got to be putting content out there because you
love doing it otherwise you're not going to get through the years of putting
videos out there and basically nobody watching them you have to enjoy it for
yourself so make sure that you enjoy it anyway I know you came here to know what
camera to buy so my recommendation that I recommend for almost anybody whether
you're just starting out or you're super Pro is this little guy this actually
even has a little like extension I'll let me take it out of its new little
case here this is the DJI Osmo pocket and if you buy one of these usually this
is not on it this is an extension pack a little accessory they'll show you in a
second here but this is all it is so it usually comes in two case this is not
the case that it came with this is a different one that's just but it looks
almost the same I'll show you why in a minute but it's so teensy you can just
throw it and if you're a female and a purse well actually if you're a male you
can put it in a purse if you want you can throw it in a bag you can put it in
your pocket if you don't buy the little tension pack it only has two buttons
which makes it really simple where I turn it on just by holding that down
wand this if you're not familiar with cameras this little thingy here is
called a gimbal and it basically stabilizes your video so you can run
with this thing and be ball bouncing around and it will be perfectly smooth
usually if you want to do that let me show you what I usually use this huge
thing and this is not even a big one like they make big huge thing this is a
little one so the fact that you can have all of it your camera everything in this
little tiny guy versus like mounting and balancing a camera to this like that is
huge you can see everything you're filming
over here and boom press this button here that flips it if you don't have the
extension you just press this button three times flip switch direction so
whether you want to be like here look at the world but I'm seeing or you want to
be like here look at me and be talking to it this way it's great I've used this
a lot lately I use this for all like all the d23 vlogs of Faerie vlogs so many
events if I go to things and you don't feel like a big weirdo for haul around a
huge camera it shoots in 4k which is great it shoots 4k and 60 frames per
second 60 frames per second basically if you film on that that lets you get
really pretty so dreamy slow-motion having something that's convenient and
handy you're gonna you're just going to thank
yourself later I know like I have so much gear all over and I could take
stuff with fancier cameras but I use this so much I use this for vlogging now
I have cameras that cost three times as much than I brought this with me to do
some of the vlogging for d23 and I was like you know what this is just so much
handy and you get smoother footage and I am
shocked by how good the audio is on this little guy it's just so good and
compared to the prices of almost everything actually I think everything I
think this is the cheapest one up here and this one I go to all the time sososo
recommend there are drawbacks though there are a couple people I would not
recommend these for if you want to be a beauty guru to make Beauty content and
you want super close-up of your face this is not for you if you just want
something that just sits and like just sits in the studio this isn't really for
you though the expansion pack does come with a little like clampy thing I would
honestly just use your phone the DJI Osmo pocket is not good in low light
it's it's not it just doesn't do well this is much better this is an Rx 100
it's much better vlog camera for low-light situations the the recap of
that those two were my options for people who are just starting YouTube
whatever smartphone you have your best friend and if you don't want to do the
iPhone route these are amazing for everybody if you've been making videos
for a while and maybe you're like okay I've been doing videos I know I really
want to invest in this and make something more but really take what I've
already been doing to the next level one thing I recommend when you're looking to
start investing in your your gear that you're going to use is it's really
helpful to pick a camera brand and stick to it that way you can use the same lens
across all of your different devices it helps for things like color correction
it just everything syncs together it's just a better experience for you and
you'll thank yourself later if you pick a brand and
to it I wound up choosing Sony as my brand of choice but it was a journey to
get there my first videos that I made were
actually funny enough on a Sony device all of my old princess singing videos
were made on this little guy right here it shoots 4k it's a little camcorder it
makes really easy and honestly for a lot of vloggers I think that these prior to
the advent of this these are actually in my opinion a better option than a lot of
the blog setups that people use because these are actually pretty easy to use
this is not something that I ever use anymore
I should probably sell it but yeah so shortly thereafter I was like you know
what I want to shoot on a DSLR and I already had one this Nikon d7000 and it
looks really pretty I love Nikon for still photos but their
autofocus is so bad I'm sure they've improved since this camera but still
like for video nikon just doesn't cut it but to this day my most watched video
was filmed on this thing with a gigantic lens that is way bigger even than this
camera it was constantly trying to find my face and every time it would it was
like this make these hugely gear like her her and the tripod that it was on it
was so heavy it would make the whole tripod little stick sway and it was such
a disaster but with very careful setup I did get it to be kind of in focus and
then I filmed my entire how does thing like a Disney Princess series on this
what's my big huge lens the next camera was the Panasonic Panasonic Lumix g7
which is actually a great choice for new youtubers who
just want like some sort of mirrorless like kind of like entry-level with the
interchangeable lenses I just want him going the Sony route when I was looking
at like more long-term but it worked great so I shot my impressions video
with that I shot my mermaid gift guide with that I think the first time I
switched over to I originally had a sony a 5100 that does not hear that I gave to
my sister for her birthday I think I switched the first one was the DIY
Mother's Day last year I only use the a 50-100 a couple times and then I got
this guy this is the Sony a 65 hundred and the rx100 basically at the same time
this was supposed to be the vlog camera and this was supposed to be like the
studio camera and it still kind of is all that brings us to what camera I
recommend for people for like their studio camera for their like upgrade
it's the sony a6000 which is what i'm filming on now and you might be confused
there's a 6500 wouldn't you recommend the 6500 no the 6500 is more expensive
than the 6400 because it has things Mayson but basically the big one is this
one has some more stabilization in it that the 6400 does not that makes it a
little bit more expensive but the 6400 is actually newer so it has better
autofocus which is huge and it also has a totally flip up screen the old 6500
the screen does not flip up all the way it's just handy to be able to have that
flip up especially in a youtube scenario i know for life is for photographers
it doesn't really matter but for those of us do in youtube this is the most
frustrating thing so that and the better autofocus makes the
huge difference now I will say the 6600 comes out later this year at that point
I'm going to sell my 6500 and purchase these 6600 because it's going to have
the stabilization that this one has is going to have the better autofocus and
it's going to have an external headphone jack so basically you can monitor your
audio directly from your camera so eventually I'll say the 6600 but for now
I recommend the Sony a sixty-four hundred another thing that I recommend
if you know that you really want to do YouTube it's just helpful to have GoPros
because you can stick them anywhere you don't have to have as many as me this
one actually is not an actual GoPro this isn't Sony's new little one that's kind
of like a GoPro this is the Sony rx100 if you do want a vlog camera that's more
like the traditional vlog camera it works well in low light but honestly in
most cases this is gonna work for you and then you can have your iPhone for
low light because iPhones do really especially the new ones do really well
in low light this is a mark 5 they are up to a March 7 now the nice thing
though about the mark 7 is that it has an external audio little port so that
you can plug in a little microphone this is the px wz9 TV in most cases I don't
recommend this I think this works really well for live-streaming and I'm gonna be
like what kind of live streaming like this is some way to intent I used to
stream on Twitch every day and I recommend if you want like the most
legit like TV quality basically live stream setup this guy here anyway so
that is kind of like the bulk of the camera collection showing you when you
want to use what cameras for what purposes and basically to help you
decide what camera is best for you a little added bonus I also want to show
you guys my drone because it's it's kind of like a camera it has a camera on it
um and what's drone I recommend for you this is the DJI Mavic you unfold it like
so they now have Mavic pros I think we have a medic probe too they've Mavic err
you want to try one out I recommend getting a cheap one from Walmart
starting with that learning how to fly it then when you want to upgrade
I suggest the Mavic air it's lighter than this smaller than this and the
video is actually better anyway I'm going to put this little guy away
because this is totally an added bonus if you're starting a YouTube channel
drones are probably not what you're thinking about that is an overview of
basically all of my cameras and hopefully to show you what cameras
I really recommend for both new youtubers as well as people who are
looking to to upgrade into something maybe a little bit more long-term the
one that I really recommend for almost everybody is this DJI Osmo pocket I
think this is like the greatest little trick people always ask when I pull out
oh my goodness is that a little camera and they're so fascinated by it like I
said I've sold so many of these to people just because I talk about it so
much I'm so excited about it I just absolutely love this thing I think it's
amazing anyways I will link to all of the products in the description below in
case you want to get any of these for yourself please don't be a crazy person
and buy all of them anyway whether you haven't even started YouTube yet and
you're just looking to see if it's something you might be interested in
maybe you're just starting or maybe you're a pro by now I hope you found
something here that was helpful for you and that's so that you can pick out the
camera gear that's right for you so anyway tell me in the comments below
