    Canon Vs Nikon for first SLR

    I also want to address your concern on the layout of different brands. I wouldn't worry much as most brands have roughly the same layout and name all their features similarly. If there are differences, they will only be minute and you should pick them up quite quickly! Regards,

    Canon Vs Nikon for first SLR

    Sorry to jump on the boat a bit late here but i want to make sure you dont make a mistake when diving into DLSR territory. First off, and MOST IMPORTANTLY! Make it clear to yourself that when you buy a camera with interchangeable lenses you are essentially buying into that brand. For example...

    Which camera is best for film-making? 60d or 70d?

    Hey there, To put it simply there isn't much difference in the 60d and 70d. As stated above, the main difference is in the auto focus tracking and automatic rack focus. Don't worry you dont need to understand these terms, just understand that you daughter will eventually learn how to do these...

    HELP...How does GOPRO 4k filming quality compair to more expensive cameras?

    I wouldn't recommend a GoPro to anyone who wants to do any meaningful cinematic filming. They are pretty limited in how you use them. I just want to reinforce what kenrivers said. There are other affordable cameras you can pick up that would do a much better job. Take a look at some of...

    Suggestions for video camera (camcorder or DSLR) for $500-600?

    I agree with kenrivers here, Although, you are limiting the range of cameras if you want 4K. Do you need proper still capability like that of a DSLR? Or do you just need a video camcorder?

    looking for solution

    Hi there, Does your phone recognize and see all the files that you put onto the card? Your card may be partitioned. Although I dont really know how that could have happened. Open up disk management in your control panel with the card in your computer and make sure that the computer only see's...

    Photos will not save to camera SD card

    Do you know how to check if write protection is enabled on the card? Also, have you formatted the card inside the camera or on the computer. If you formatted on the computer, what file system did you format as?

    1080p/24fps capable camera ALSO with possibility to shoot Slow-mo and Ideally in RAW video format for lowest money possible

    Hi there, Just want to throw another camera into the mix also. The Blackmagic Pocket Camera. Just like the GoPro, it's small and a little bit limiting in terms of adaptability and what you can tack onto it. But it gives you everything you want bar the high frame rate...

    Camcorder/DSLR perfect for making YouTube Videos

    First a few other questions need answering. Like: 1). What are you going to be filming mainly. Is it "At Desk" Vlog style video or will you be creating skits or short films? 2). Whats your budget? 3). Filming is 50% Video 50% Audio. So what are you going to be recording into? i.e. what mic...

    what do i choose

    Try picking up a Canon Powershot S120. They are by far my favorite pocket camera and it wont break the bank at only $450 usually. You might find it cheaper than that now too. As for taking action shots, do a bit of research on the different "modes" The camera has. Some are better for for sport...

    Pictures taken on the camera cannot be downloaded from my SD Card but clearly visible on my camers (no internal memory)

    Hi Christena, I have a feeling that the photos beyond 274 may have been taken as RAW files. If this is the case your computer may not be able to read them if you do not have the correct codec installed. Usually, programs like photoshop pre-install these codecs but you may be able to use a...

    Should I Upgrade This GoPro

    Depends, If you can shell out for the 4 Black and still keep your silver you should definitely consider it. Having a second camera, especially for sports, is going to make a world of difference when it comes to production value. May I ask, do you do any video editing to your stuff or is it...

    Why can't i play .MOD files on my Windows 8 computer?

    If I may add a second solution to kenrivers solution. Try downloading the k-light codec pack from THIS website. Basically its an installer that adds a whole bunch of video/photo/audio codecs to your computer so that the software can properly decode and play some of these weird file types. I...
