Learning the Canon 700D / Rebel t5i setup felt intimidating at first—but in this vlog I show my real experience learning about using the Canon 700D and filming for beginner YouTubers/Videographers. If you're looking for a great secondhand camera, or are looking for motivation or an outline to research your existing camera, I hope you'll find this video helpful!
UPDATE: For those following along, my biggest complaint (seperate shutter and record buttons) means that I also can't use a remote with this camera as they are only able to control the shutter button (so photos only, no video). More updates coming soon in another video, I hope I'll see you there!
This video is for anyone exploring Canon 700D / Rebel T5i filmmaking, youtube setup, or deciding between the Canon 700D’s auto vs manual modes.
