Canon EOS Rebel T4i Video Test – Basics

A Non Videographer Test of the T4i

I need to state for the record that I am just learning how to do videos. I am not an expert in any stretch of the imagination. Which for this particular video review it’s a good thing. After all I don’t think most people are “expert Videographers, I am not even sure that’s a word.

…Anyhow,

I decided after watching another video test that I would do my own. For this test I held the camera in my hand and manually focused in on my shots. I read reviews that the auto – focus is slow and clumsy on the T4i. I would have to agree with other reviewers, the auto – focus is pretty much worthless for doing videos. It’s loud and slow.

I am not reviewing the whole camera though, I just want to share with you the video I made I am even going to tell you how I made it 🙂 [Read more…] about Canon EOS Rebel T4i Video Test – Basics

Canon Rebel T4i – A Review For The Rest Of Us

I am far from a photographer or videographer, however I do have a need to have some equipment. I started to realize that my Iphone and old HD Canon  Vixia just wasn’t cutting it for my needs. The Iphone 5 takes awesome pictures, however I found myself is situations where the phone just didn’t work the way I wanted it to. For example, focusing close up is a real pain in the butt also the zoom feature isn’t that great. My old camcorder only recorded in 3. something megapixels. While it looks decent, I could tell when uploading it that I was loosing lots of quality.

After discussing it with a friend of mine I decided to go with the Canon Rebel T4i. Now I can kill two birds with 1 stone…

Canon Rebel T4i – Is It Good For The Clueless?

I will be the first to admit that I have no idea how to use this camera or any camera for that matter. It has lots of buttons and gizmos that do all sorts of things. The only thing I want to do is point and shoot. It took me about an hour to figure out how to take a picture, switch out lenses and shoot a video.  Here is photo I took from my back yard.

Making Videos With The Canon Rebel T4i

I did shoot a video real fast just to see. I will mention that the auto focus is indeed tricky to work with. I was shooting the video in low light and at the time of the recording I didn’t realize that my fan was in the shot.

In my defense it was the first video I shot with the camera and I really don’t know how to use the equipment yet. I just pulled it out of the box and started pushing buttons 🙂 [Read more…] about Quick Review Of The Canon Rebel T4i For Newbies
