Canon XA50 the camera for SOLO filmmakers!!!

▶ SUBSCRIBE NOW: http://bit.ly/saraheyoutube CANON XA50 - the camera for solo filmmakers! My favorite camera as a solo documentary filmmaker is currently the Canon XA50. I rented it for a week (thanks lensrentals.com) to test it out. Here are my (non-technical) thoughts on the camera along with some footage filmed with the XA50 at this year's Adams Morgan Day in DC. (One of the previous versions of this camera is the Canon XA40.) Here's the Adams Morgan Day video in case you want to check it out: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mgJvd... MUSIC: Epidemic Sound http://bit.ly/epidemicsound-sarahle CAMERA Canon XA50: https://amzn.to/30fGunP Also, below are the details I've gathered from using the camera for a few days, hopefully you'll find them useful. THE GOODS: Its small, compact size. Very portable. Shoots 4K up to 30 FPS. All-in-one camera, the only thing you may need is a nice external mic hooked up to the XLR input - if you need pro audio. Otherwise, its onboard mic is good enough for everyday filming non-pro events. Built-in ND filter (1/4, 1/16, 1/64) - my favorite feature! Built-in optical and electronic IS (great for handheld shots which will be 90% of the time for me). Dual-pixel auto-focus. (So good!) 2 XLR audio inputs (for professional audio which I need to film documentaries). Great in low light settings (which surprises me). 15x zoom at 4K and 30x zoom at 1080p. Sweet bokeh / shall depth-of-field (especially when you use the zoom) 2:41. On-board audio is actually pretty decent for those times . WISH LIST: Image quality is nice, but not as cinematic as I want. But because it's for run & gun documentaries, this wish is not as urgent. Though I still wish. That there are more physical buttons for often-used features, such as changing IRIS, gain, etc. The camera's stabilization can be improved a bit more.
