UPDATE: I was incorrect when talking about slow motion on the a6300. Here is how you can activate in camera conforming. Info from user MobFactory: Andrea.
"You need to switch it one of the HFR Mode (either P S A M etc) in the quick menu (Fn button while in video mode). Then you can just go into the menu as usual and select your record setting as usual (24p 100m, 24p 60m,etc.). From my testing the compression seems to be a bit better when you do it this way but it does mean you loose audio."
Thanks Andrea!

Imagine the GH4 with the sensor of the A6300

@seanshirishi 6 лет назад

Here it is two years later, and still, it's videos like these that make a HUGE difference in saving time... and money! Liked n' subscribed.

@RileyEndicott 7 лет назад

You never mention dynamic range which is arguably the most important quality when it comes to image quality. Its not even close. a6300 is the clear winner

@hexagonixon 6 лет назад

Jayrim - can you share a video or anything that proves that (the dynamic range difference)? It would be very helpful. Thanks!

@JodyBruchon 6 лет назад

Dynamic range IS NOT the most important thing when it comes to video quality. There are a lot of factors involved. Dynamic range is helpful but even the cheapest camcorder built new today has more than enough dynamic range to make a decent-looking movie.

@noahcurrie9653 6 лет назад

Dynamic range is very important, and Panasonic’s “V-log” does not compare to Sony’s “s-log2” or “s-log3” facts

@Techmeout 7 лет назад

This is right on time! I was literally googling this the other day and had a hard time finding a solid review on this topic until u released this! 😁

@dslrvideoshooter 7 лет назад

So glad I was able to help!

@glamourhabit9824 7 лет назад

SAME HERE! Between these exact ones!

@glamourhabit9824 7 лет назад

I'm shooting mostly indoor, makeup tutorial videos and vlogs. I'm hoping I made the right choice with the a6300, although the GH4 was highly recommended. It's just so much more $$$$ than I was ever expecting to spend. That doesn't include the very possible need for a large ring light, 2 soft boxes and who knows what else?! **sigh**

@GodBlessHipHop 7 лет назад

where did you get the accessories for the gh4? i like the mic and battery pack..

@BigPiePublishing 6 лет назад

I've really come to appreciate and trust your videos. This review is so fair, objective and detailed. I just bought the a6500 and this video was a big part of my decision. In the end I wanted to dabble in photography and get high quality shots even though video is my main thing.

@Xock 7 лет назад

Very consistent analysis Caleb, keep up with the great work !

@skyli3945 5 лет назад

a camera comparison without image quality comparing??? LOG??? Clarity?? Color science?? Detail??? Only saying 6300 is cleaner before stating that more noise doesn't matter??

@TechLineHD 7 лет назад

amazing!!!! the video i've been waiting for!!!! i could not decide which camera i wanted so i bought both of them. Now I need to choose which one to return

@dslrvideoshooter 7 лет назад

Thanks TechLine. Glad you enjoyed it!

@curtisjudd 7 лет назад

Great comparison Caleb. I appreciate the balanced, practical insights.

@dslrvideoshooter 7 лет назад

Thanks Curtis!

@zeusis 7 лет назад

@aleksandertatarek5355 7 лет назад

Holy !! Man fantastic video, I was waiting for something like this many many long months 😊 Thanks 👏

@dslrvideoshooter 7 лет назад

Glad you enjoyed it!

@DaveDugdaleColorado 7 лет назад

Great comparison Caleb, I have not tried the 6300, thinking of picking one up soon.

@dslrvideoshooter 7 лет назад

Thanks Dave! It is fun, but hardly useable for every shoot without a few accessories.

@eletor 7 лет назад

Definitely go pick one up. I've shot all my videos with it this summer and had great results. All the negative comments on rolling shutter are highly exaggerated. I do panning shots of cars going pretty fast and never have an issue.

@eletor 7 лет назад

I forgot the mention that I've never overheated it either. I shoot all day outdoors in the hottest conditions.

@TheLuNaMaStEr 7 лет назад

I wish you would. I'd love to hear your thoughts on it as well.

@GarethCroft 7 лет назад

i had the 6300 for 1 day, makes you sea sick :P

@FREY.1 7 лет назад

Thanks so much for doing this video man! keep up the good work. Love your videos

@JacobVossFilms 7 лет назад

This was great man! Exactly the video I've been waiting for 😊

@dslrvideoshooter 7 лет назад

Thanks Jacob! Happy to be of service!

@filmandotherthings3627 7 лет назад

You're wrong about in camera slow mo on sony a6300. It does playback slow mo on the a6300. You have to select HFR M or one of the HFR settings for it to play back in slow mo.

@AK-IT 7 лет назад

what about a comparisons with the original sony a7 now that it can be had for around a thousand dollars U.S.?

@BenFox01 7 лет назад

Really fantastic video, and just what I needed! Just to help me a lil more with my decision... Which camera has better slo mo in terms of image quality? Thanks again

@DylanTee 7 лет назад

Super in depth. Loved the review

@Qanon20 7 лет назад

Great review and great channel! Just subscribed!

@mychalsimmons4177 7 лет назад

Calab how do you feel about the Gh5 is it worth the upgrade?

@FlashOneFilms 7 лет назад

hows the rolling shutter on a gimbal?

@PineappleUk 7 лет назад

Caleb is there much difference in Slow mo Quality? Thanks!

@ErikNaso 7 лет назад

Nice job on the comparison video!

@DiMastaX12 7 лет назад

Good review, Caleb! Thanks.

@LeonSansNom 7 лет назад

Amazing video, I'm considering to buy one of them, but do you think it worth to wait the GH5 ? Will it get higher ISO performances and better framerate ?

@johnklus 7 лет назад

Hey Caleb I want to start of by saying I love your channel. I was recently thinking of making the switch from MFT (Panasonic G7) to the Sony a6300. I love the video quality on the g7 but now I've been doing photography more than video and I've been using my G7 for photos. I know for photography the a6300 is way better especially with low light and its fast auto focus. Do you think this change will be better for the best of both worlds? Or would there be any MFT recommendations for photo and video, since I already invested in glass and would have to sell it to make the switch? Maybe wait for the GH5 that is soon to come out? Thanks ahead for the response if you read this.

@captaincuck 7 лет назад

Super helpful and informative! Thanks hombre.

@XOJHA 7 лет назад

You got me at "shooting handheld in the back of an atv in the middle of the jungle" 😂 Awesome comparison, appreciate all your vids.

@packotulais4041 7 лет назад

Hello! How are you! One question: to record video as video clips between these two options, sony alpha a6300 and panasonic lumix gh4, which one would you choose and why? Keep in mind that you need good bokeh, cinematographic takes and above all that you can edit the video to have the best quality of video offered by these two cameras. thank you very much.

@cmbruno46 6 лет назад

First off I love your videos! Very informative and I’ve made a few purchases solely based on your recommendation. I have a question, what’s your thoughts on Fuji xt2 for video. I’m using it for real estate video, moza air & the 3” viltrox monitor. I have the camera and I’m waiting for the rest. Should I be looking for a used gh4 or am I good to go?

@SR20DEBT 7 лет назад

is in like a month "when i have enough money" a good time to buy? or should i wait for a dreamed for gh5?

@thenerdherdforum 7 лет назад

Interesting comparison, thanks for sharing!

@TechRanker 7 лет назад

Nice video. I'm currently wondering if I should get the A6500 or wait for the GH5. I'm looking forward to your review of the A6500 when it comes out.

@elijoseph9554 7 лет назад

Hey Caleb, I'm super stoked this video finally appeared. You've sold my on the GH4 but I will wait for the GH5 to be announced and price drop of the 4. Random question: Is the wood table top from Ikea? If not where did it come from? I am in the process of building my own work bench and love the look of yours.

@Clouder77 7 лет назад

can you do an update with the GH5 and Sony a6500?

@MR.BUCK_MAN 6 лет назад

hi, could you suggest me a camera for my youtube channel under 1000, i am stuck with bmpcc used with lens, used sony fs100 , or panasonic g85? please help. also planning to get into short film making

@thebowenchin 7 лет назад

Great comprehensive comparison, would really appreciate if you could do a review of the video feature of the Fujifilm X-T2!

@FITRESULTSChicago 7 лет назад

Would the 6300 work well with a handheld stabilizer? Im gonna be using it to take footage in my gym. Bootcamps, fitness classes etc. Or is there something better for that use?

@gsoares2004 7 лет назад

Hey Caleb Hows going man? What kind of Camera are you using to record this video?

@paulfernandez4515 6 лет назад

As usual great video...Thank you....If you don't mind me asking what type of work do you do..??? I want to start shooting interviews and some bRoll myself.!!!

@capturedbycaruso 7 лет назад

Love your videos Caleb, i've been watching many today lol! I've Been using the GH4 this year many times, and I've been wanting to buy a used one now that the GH5 has come out. Do you think its worth it, or should I look at other options, seeing as I'm budget conscious and don't want to buy a $2500+ camera kit. Love Sony a7's and even the GH5 but def out of my budget. Would love to hear your thoughts. Autofocus is also a big deal to me, and I'm sure many others out there. Cheers!

@TorIvanBoine 7 лет назад

hmm. Don't have any questions, now. good work :) Well one question. I have a lot of full frame nikon lenses. Does the speedbooster take both full frame and crop frame lenses? How does that work?

@marcelgavrila5474 6 лет назад

Hello, man...what you have in your right hand? :) What is this, it's a custom RIG? Thanks

@PieterBreda 7 лет назад

The a6300 has the HFR option. That works a bit different than is obvious. If you choose this, you can also see the slowmotion in the camera.

@MrCaseHarts 7 лет назад

Yeah it's hfr/slow MO is amazing on the a 6300 I used it at a sports shoot this weekend it was epic.

@dslrvideoshooter 7 лет назад

Wow, can't believe I missed that! Thanks for the info.

@PieterBreda 7 лет назад

It is easy to miss because it has to be set with the button on video. Then you can choose P, S, A and different HFR modes

@Niro989 7 лет назад

One of the best reviews I have seen, Thank you.

@dslrvideoshooter 7 лет назад

Thanks Niro!

@peacocksquirrel2436 7 лет назад

this was so helpful! Went for the GH4 a quarter ago and am very happy. low-light and auto focus are a bit frustrating though. AF is kind of solvable by just focussing and then switching to manual (to lock). For vlogging the GH4 is a good workhorse, just not for all moments, especially the unplanned ones.

@piso11studio47 7 лет назад

Caleb... best to have as a 60fps camera to compliment c100? (color matching, quality)

@krisinsaigon 7 лет назад

I've a question about the 6300 & overheating. I like the sensor size, the low light, the focus, but I'm worried about it not working. I live in Vietnam, and it's incredibly hot and humid here. I'm looking to use the camera for narrative film making, not talking heads, so I imagine each time it'll only be shooting a few minutes rather than non stop. Is the ambient temperature going to affect it, or is the overheating more from long shooting times?

@merc_em4799 4 года назад

Which camera will you recommend for all round including to use as a dslr streaming camera setup

@FalcoII 7 лет назад

There is sort of hack where you can remove the 30min limitation on a6300. I love this comparison, both are amazing cameras, you nicely pinpointed the strength and weakness. Sometimes I hate the small fails of a6300 but still love it. Especially since the still image part is a thing for me as well.

@GabrielGurrola 7 лет назад

Two questions: how did you light this video. And which camera did you use to record this video. Thanks in advance!

@nikolayp7754 7 лет назад

Great detailed video! Thank you very much for ur opinion

@valval3322 6 лет назад

Can you tell me which lense would be best for a6300 shooting music videos

@noelthy7708 7 лет назад

So if i want to shoot like Music Video and stuff which is stabilized with a steadycam or gimbal and event videos etc, would u recommend the a6300 or gh4?

@AllanGildea 7 лет назад

excellent, really helpful. Thank you.

@DominikGeisler 7 лет назад

I love your lighting setups soooo much

@dslrvideoshooter 7 лет назад

Thanks Dominik! I used this setup: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-htRqm0JjGQE.html

@PostColorGear 7 лет назад

Caleb, you CAN remap the record button for video on the A6300

@DigitalSamTV 7 лет назад

Yes you can reamp (I find best place is the C1 button on top just right of shutter)

@cherianthomas8882 6 лет назад

Excellent review!

@erikberning1749 5 лет назад

Should I upgrade from G7 to Gh4 in 2018? Is it a big difference of picture quality (bitrate etc) ?

@Eightpspi 7 лет назад

Just ordered my a6300 for shooting short form 4k videos like music videos and promo videos.

@NbkGlocky 5 лет назад

How'd it turn out?

@arunsrinivasan8973 7 лет назад

which one is best for short film ? or any other camera?

@greysuit17 7 лет назад

Great video! I have the a6300 as my first all around photo/video and so far I love it. A few things are not cool like the rolling shutter & overheating but you just learn to live with it. Other features I love though is the wifi easy to transfer photos & video and do edits on a phone for really quick production.

@spielundzeug 7 лет назад

Would love a video like this including the new Fuji X-T2

@Nissan_El_Gabe 7 лет назад

Which would you choose after both cameras have the add-ons you recommend in your guides?

@dslrvideoshooter 7 лет назад

The a6300 would be much more appealing since it wouldn't overheat at all indoors and do much better out. For youtube stuff the a6300 but if I had to do any interview work I'd still pick the GH4.

@Channel323 6 лет назад

those mods look dope AF...can i get one?..lol..big fan of your vids brotha, cant wait for the next one

@philemotion8876 7 лет назад

Great job Caleb !!! Warmly, Phil

@joonajks 4 года назад

Hi is the Panasonic GH4 camera still relevant for RU-vid videos for beginners?

@techhealthandfood9952 7 лет назад

If Sony will only put the 6300 in a a7 body

@str8poisintv131 7 лет назад

that would be dope i have an a6300 and a gimbal but i just like how feels rigged up a slightly bigger body with the eye cup centered with the body would really feel nice. its a good camera but pike is right it needs a few accessories when your out shooting

@str8poisintv131 7 лет назад

@wildbikerbill6530 7 лет назад

The a6300 is really to small to hold and with anything more than a pancake lens the grip/balance is all wrong. Or that could just be me and my XL sized hands.

@AANasseh 7 лет назад

Can you do a test of the a6300 with a speedbooster? Can it even use it? - The f stop extra is awesome, but I really like it because of the wider FOV

@CaioFontesFilms 7 лет назад

Awesome review!

@elronaldese 7 лет назад

I always shoot with a little crew, with my ZOOM H4N and Rode NTG2 aside.... so I just have to worry about the imagery. In you were in my case, would you pick the A6300, am i right?

@pavelbtn 7 лет назад

Which one is easier to grade from the Flat profile? I heard that Sony's S-Log is more robust and flexible.

@facelesscorporation1668 7 лет назад

great video man.

@JonPais 7 лет назад

one of the most balanced comparisons I've seen of the two cameras.

@darkomacedo 7 лет назад

@vishalpatil4908 7 лет назад

hi is sony alfa 6300 compitable with rode mic pro or only sony pro[pietry mic fits?

@MsHackthat 4 года назад

Does it has a mobile app to control the settings? Let's say if im doing youtube, i just need to set the focus once if im sitting. Can i do tht via the mobile app?

@Minyahel 7 лет назад

love it but A6300 what if i have it on ronin m the shoot will me good?

@byeperry 7 лет назад

What's that lens in the very beginning of the video on GH4?

@MobFactory 7 лет назад

Caleb. I have a 6300. It does conform slow mo in camera. You need to switch it one of the HFR Mode (either P S A M etc) in the quick menu (Fn button while in video mode). Then you can just go into the menu as usual and select your record setting as usual (24p 100m, 24p 60m,etc.). From my testing the compression seems to be a bit better when you do it this way but it does mean you loose audio.

@MobFactory 7 лет назад

After you do this once you can just switch between slow mo and normal speed from the quick menu. Its the button on the bottom right :)

@dslrvideoshooter 7 лет назад

Thank you for the info Andrea! I added that to the description. You're a champ!

@AndreaBelloFilms 7 лет назад

No problem! Thanks for the shout-out! Keep up the great videos :-)

@MikePowery45 7 лет назад

i think you kind of answer it... but if i were to use a camera for shooting short films would you use a6300 or something else?

@liammurdock8313 7 лет назад

Yo dude thanks for the video, I finally have the money to put out for a decent camera, right now Ive ruled out the Sony A6300. However, now Im comparing the Canon EOS 70d to the GH4 because there are a lot of lense options, but the GH4 has way better quality for video and would be still relevant in the future. Let me know what you think of the 70D for video production?

@tommasocauchi3115 6 лет назад

Hi Caleb! Could you make a comparison between the lumix gx80/85 and the Sony a6000? It could be interesting for a lot of entry lever photographers and video makers that are on a low budget situation like me :) Anyway your very accurate and I really like your channel, you got a new followers!

@nadeemm429 7 лет назад

this is exactly what i am deciding between thx

@ddellan 4 года назад

HEY HEY HELLO BRO! can u help me? please :c if i have the BMPCC4k with my lens m43 i cant used on my a6400 with the pisco adapter?

@WilliamNevius 7 лет назад

Thanks dude. Was getting ready to get a 6300 but someone said I should do a GH4 but you explain it well and now I know which to do for (:

@stefanawalz 7 лет назад

Advice please! I do marketing for a local Transit Authority. We make videos involving a mix of interviews and run and gun B-Roll that include things like the inside of buses (which can get dark) as well as filming moving buses and following people on bikes, cars, etc. In most applications i would have access to a shoulder rig with all the needed bells and whistles for sound, power, external monitor, follow focus, etc. Until this video i was thinking of going GH4 + native Olympus 12-40 f/2.8, but now I'm hesitant. What are your thoughts. The low light and auto focus kind of scared me on the GH4 from what you were saying, but I need to be able to capture moving vehicles. I would even consider the New A6500 if that changes the opinion. Any advice ASAP would be awesome!

@mikedgodwin 7 лет назад

@gokulkettavan 7 лет назад

Hey Caleb, can you explain those jarkhands you use in a single video, which will be really helpful..

@BrandonMarVisuals 7 лет назад

Which one will work better with stabilizers? The a6300 seems really lightweight.

@_TheWatchers 7 лет назад

maybe a silly question - with a full frame camera what you see in the viewfinder/back display is what you get - you know your exact composition. With a APS-C your cropped but does this crop factor display in your viewfinder/back display for you to still be able to get the composition you want?

@michaelvidales90 7 лет назад

@dslrvideoshooter 7 лет назад

Thanks for watching!

@rondo221 7 лет назад

it is very rare that i subscribe to a youtube channel but after watching a few of your videos you got me hooked. Are you using an adapter for that Nikon lens on your gh4 and if so what is it? Can you run Cannon lenses the same way?

@sarahraffer1980 7 лет назад

Ronn, I have noticed that best GH4 users ( Yuri Palma, Alexis Troy Travelfeels ...) use Metabones Speedbooster. And it does exist also in Canon version

@JaySybrandy 7 лет назад

Hi great review :) would the A6300 over heat in 25 degrees celsius (77 Fahrenheit) weather and would adding a little umbrella about the camera keep it cooler in sun light ? :) Thanks :)

@JaySybrandy 7 лет назад

And whats rolling shutter ? Thanks (Camera Noob)

@Legodreamer29 7 лет назад

Jay Sybrandy rolling shutter is where the image is exposed from top to bottom, so if you are shooting a car going 100 mph or something and it drives past, the top of the car will be exposed and move downward. That is pretty much the best I can explain it
