"me living in a third world country slowly saving up to buy a $50 chinese manual lens for my mft camera"

Ocassionally you can find the updated GX85 (updated over the GX7) for about $550 on sale around Christmas time (with a lens) . Of course even the GX85 is an older camera by today's standards and is about 8 years old at this point, but still one that seems to fetch a good amount of money even on the used market. I think that it did address some of the EVF issues found on the older GX series cameras although it wasn't fully resolved until I think the GX9 series but those are closer to $1k in price. By far the Olympus OM-D M10 models are among my favorites, and I had one but sold it to move up to FF, but wish I hadn't as it's hard to find one that isn't over priced IMO as they still go for about $300 used which is more than I would care to spend on one (also considering a new one with the latest tech is only $700 for the body). Oddly, I didn't know they had IBIS until after I had sold mine (i thik I had a Mark II) and it makes me wish I had kept it even more.

You’re great George I love your videos.

I got a Fujifilm X-T10 for a little over $400 with both a good quality body and lens. One of the best deals of my life

I think the 22mm on the eos-m works out to 35mm (1.6 not 1.5 crop). The later eos-ms are very capable, the m6ii is basically a mirrorless version of 90d. The original eos-m1 is a great video camera with magic lantern fw. I also have the sigma lens for the eos-m, m43 and e-mount .. which causes of confusion if i am picking them up without checking the back lens caps! Note when getting a 5d the shutter is rated for 150k, but many go way past that, but spares are a problem. Anyway great video as always. Happy snapping.

good video review, I have the Lumix ZS60 (TZ80) and love using it. Got it refurbished. I also have the Canon G7xMii and it is also awesome. Both are available at reasonable price.

I see why the D200 was on your list on the other video. I guess at that price, even with the bayer issues I would recommend it too.

I bought a D700 for fun. It’s one of my favorite cameras for image quality.

I also have a used EM10Mii that is awesome to use as well.

Literally had a 5D classic and 50/1.7 turn up today to mess around with (and a EOS 5 35mm as well)

Earlier this year I g ot a Fuji X-T10 with 18-55mm lens from CeX in Grade A mint as new condition for £415 and that's with a two year warranty. I've had a few A grade items from CeX, they've always been in amazing nick, boxed as new.

I bought my Pentax ME Super for £23, postage included, no problems at all. Shit's fire.

LUMIX G7 & 25mm 1.7 (50mm full frame equivalent) 🔥🔥🔥

I have a classic 5d and it is a great basic full frame for us people with real world budgets. I got mine with three high quality zooms for $300 . With my small hands I don’t tend to use it that much .

I love my sony A5100 with the TTArtisan 27mm f2.8 for street photography

Hi! This video was perfectly timed and what I was looking for lol. In the market for a small, interchangeable lens camera that I can take around with me all the time. Thx mate!

I got a omd em1 mkii for £275 with extra battery bargin. Just need a lens.

Omd em10 mkii, pen pl8 and gx7 - which one will you suggest for beginners who wanna get into street photography? One downside for pl8 is no viewfinder but still like the small body as have small hands. Found all of them around the same pricing

even though i think the most important thing in a street camera is high iso performance, I would gladly shoot a nikon d200 for the CCD sensor. what a great recommendation. i know it's contradictory, but i did put my money where my mouth is and got myself a H4d-50 that can only shoot iso 200 (if..) CCD is such a gem.

Great line-up, for me the even more fascinating thing about the m43 cameras (and some APS-C, like A5000) is that you can buy many of them with multiple lenses and even a bag for A$160, so less than US$100. They are often advertised on Marketplace/Gumtree simply as camera and sold by people they were gifted to or who bought them with an aim to grow in photography, but never ended up using them. Never happens with a 5D or D700 though, as random people would never buy them. That's why at least here in Australia where we don't have MPB the street prices are very different.

It's when they start calling an old camera "retro" or "vintage" that we start seeing these insane prices for these compact cameras. So many rivaling the cost of new cameras!

Love these videos, can't wait till you focus on old cameras that have decent video specs, IBIS, mic jack input etc...

I see you have one of those cheep spotlight attachments to your aperture light.. You like it? also great video as always!

Perfekt Timing :) but sadly I don’t have any money at the moment

The Nikon D700 is such an awesome camera in terms of IQ. If it were not so heavy, I would have been taking it everywhere.

excellent video. what do u think about the sony a6100? still worth buying?

Since I've been using a kit lens, I've been thinking about getting a prime lens. And the Sigma 19mm art lens is on the list of my choices. As a beginner just wanting to get into shooting with a prime lens. May I ask, is it worth getting a used Sigma 19mm or am I better off buying more affordable manual prime lenses from Chinese manufacturers? Thank you. 😊

I'm still have the Canon EOS M3 with kit lens in my school, the result is still impressive, especially about the color. I'm quite often using it for school documentation as a pair cameras. My only complaint about the Canon EOS M3 is that it doesn't have an EVF, which is very annoying for me.

Interesting line-up of cheapish cameras. Personally, I wouldn't spend anything like that amount on any system that is obsolete. The systems may be interesting and "legendary" iow Pentax Q, Nikon 1 or Canon M, but based on the lack of support from the manufacturer, I dont think there are anything other than "play" value there. No repair support, no new replacement items if anything croaks etcetera. I have a tiny Nikon 1 system consisting of a v1 with the optional flash, a J4, one working 10-30 pancake, two regular 10-30 non working and a 30-110, and I have less than €200 in it. It is an interesting little system, with great colours and such, but nothing I would consider to be anything primary. It is also most likely just a matter of time before the two working lenses goes down if the track record on the Nikon 1 lenses is anything to go by.

Me trying not to feed my financially disastrous GAS: oh no

Great ! I love affordable cameras. I've had a few of these. Have, I mean.

which one would you suggest for street togging ( for a beginner ) ?

Do you now,whit the Ricoh 2 you can set the focus point in meter,and then you just pull it out (ladies) and just shoot ,and you got it :)

I would say as a British content creator, as admirable as it is to cater to the US market using dollar currency, you can easily put both currencies up at the same time. Good content regardless though pal.

Does MPB have a division in North America? I'm sort of confused by the pricing in this video. If these are American dollars and there is no MPB in NA, then if one ordered something from MPB wouldn't the prices be much more from shipping and import fees?

@GeogeHolden how about Fuji XT-20 plus TTartisan 27mm f2.8?

Perfect timing

can you do one for camcorders?

cool 🆒 yay 😁

Scary George will appear from the shadows, he's never happy lol

I prefere calling this class of mirrorless cameras as "E.V.I.L. cameras" (Electronic viewfinder/ interchangeable lens)

i only got $169, which camera should i buy ?

Buy one of mine I have way too many.

I would double it and give it to the next person

Sony a100 is cheaper and is ccd

Currently watching this broke af
