Canon 550D - Unboxing and Test

[LordADNsVlog]

SO DO YOU HAVE TO BUY THE CARD OF MEMORY apart???? D: What is the cost???

[Cannon361]

I am going to get this camera in a week or so. I have a question about it. :P

I will use it to videographing (I heard that it has awesome quality)

But yeah, to the question: Do I need a special SD card for videoing? I have kingston SDHC 4GB class 4 card. Is it fast enough?

[troy2062]

@Cannon361

You will need a class 10 SD card. A 4GB card will allow you to record approximately 12 minutes, so I would recommend 16GB.

[Cannon361]

@troy2062 Oh.. Then I need to order a 64 GB one..

[TheSolidsnake98]

Cooool video!!im looking forward to get that!!..=D.Btw the apple thunderbolt screen is awsum dude!

[troy2062]

@TheSolidsnake98

Thanks, although it's actually the slightly older MDP version. :3

A Mini HDMI cable is not included.

[FcBarcaRulez]

@troy2062 So have to buy one separately?? 

[troy2062]

Yes.

[FcBarcaRulez]

[henke9100]

Stabilization and alla automatic settings are pretty useless on this camera, isn't it? For video, I mean. Thinking of getting either this or the sony a35. This got more manual settings, but the Sony does auto better. For me it's more fun the more settings I got, but on many occasions I got a friend recording, and then auto could be good. Is it worth it to get this one then?

[troy2062]

@henke9100

The optical stabilization on the kit lens is very useful for video and images (granted the lens itself is not particularly good). I have not extensively tested the the automatic mode, however it seems reasonably well designed.

I would certainly recommend this over the A35, especially with the benefits of the Magic Lantern firmware.

[henke9100]

@troy2062

The thing with Sonys cameras is basically that you have stabilization in the body and it's compatible with many old minolta lenses. But it has some drawbacks with the video mode ye, I agree. But if the auto-mode works on this one, it should work out reasonably well. Won't install the magic lantern though, got bad luck with firmware-updates, haha, so don't want to install anything that step out of the warranty.

[nonamejay87]

i love how guys unbox stuff but you can see that they already opened it and just repacked it lol. theres fingerprints all over ur LCD screen on the back of the cam :) over all still a good video.

[troy2062]

@nonamejay87

I had not already unboxed this camera; it was packaged by the shop before delivery.

[TheLollollypop]

this was made on my birthday !!! ;) *random*

[maximinleouf]

@LukeCropley

[LukeCropley]

@troy2062 thts gd :P

[ammarfeyzo]

where is 18-55 lenss.. ?? 

[troy2062]

@ammarfeyzo

I purchased it with the 18-135mm.

[SuperVfxpro]

Wow many screens doh

[LukeCropley]

i am getting this for my birthday in december watching this review made me even more interested in it , thanks for the great video

[troy2062]

@LukeCropley

You are welcome. I would also recommend getting the 50mm F1.8 lens with it (about £100 and and infinitely better than the stock kit lens).

Have fun. :)

[LukeCropley]

@troy2062 thanks i just wondered is the 18-55 lens good ?

[troy2062]

@LukeCropley

The 18-55mm is the stock kit lens. The image stabilization is useful, however the largest aperture it will reach is F3.5 (not low-light friendly) while sacrificing sharpness. I would say it is the best lens to begin learning with.

[LukeCropley]

@troy2062 ok thanks , sorry i keep on asking questions but i was just wondering does the cannon eos 550d take quick pictures ?

[troy2062]

@LukeCropley

There is a fully automatic mode, but where's the fun in that? :P

[LukeCropley]

@troy2062 true true thanks for the reply

[MATTBMW123]

What Is Difference Between Canon 550d And Canon T2i

[troy2062]

@VfxFactoryHd

They are the same camera.

US: Canon T2i

EU: Canon 550D

JP: Canon KISS X4

[thormx47]

your recording with a good camera why get another.

[troy2062]

@thormx47

The camera I used to record this is extremely picky about lighting (very, very difficult to get good results), and records at a fixed 1080i25. I got the 550D, as was looking for a DSLR, not just a camcorder.

[WELLAirsoft]

marry christmas troy. The video from your new camera was awsome, You live in awsome area. I hope it is not too much to ask fro some help .

[troy2062]

@WELLAirsoft

Great Video! I always enjoy your attention to detail while unboxing and reviewing products. :)

[mrcomputerflash]

wow very nice quality what are you filming this video on?

[troy2062]

@mrcomputerflash

It was recorded using my 3-year-old Sony HDR-SR5. :)

[Thesneakypotato]

An error occurred. Please try again later.

[UhhhHeyyy]

how much do you think your whole setup is?

[MrTechnoiGeek]

Awesome trot i will get mine in a month or so saving for a 50 mm 1.4 now. Can wait to see more!

[valerijusvsserioza]

thats definitely a nice camera.

[S1PR0DUCTI0NS]

the class 4 and 6 will work but trust me get the class 10 on long shoots ( i take a video calss every couple of weeks we have to turn a 30 min video) the class 4 and 6 cut out and kinda drop frames and i have gotten mutiple hot pixels so watch out for that man but def get a class 10 spend the money for it

[troy2062]

@S1PR0DUCTI0NS

The 550D has a recording limit per file of 4GB (12 minutes), so that should not be a problem. :)

[S1PR0DUCTI0NS]

@troy2062 well actually i had a 32 gb class 10 and i filmed the fireworks show lastyear on july 4 and it recorder for 23 min so i am sorry but you are wrong on that

[troy2062]

@S1PR0DUCTI0NS

What resolution did you record in? At 1080p, there is a 12 minute limit per recording instance. Bear in mind that I am referring specifically to the 550D.

[S1PR0DUCTI0NS]

@troy2062 1080p and yes i have a t2i wich is what it is called in the US i have never heard of a 12 min record limit

[troy2062]

@S1PR0DUCTI0NS

4GB is the largest individual filesize which a FAT32 filesystem can support.  At 1080p (330MB per minute), this translates to 12 minutes.

[S1PR0DUCTI0NS]

@troy2062 ok well believe what you want i have a 23 min 1080p video file of 4 of july so were you are finding this i suggest you find another source

[troy2062]

@S1PR0DUCTI0NS

My source is Canon. This is not a matter of me believing what I want, it is a matter of the inherent 4GB file size limitation of the FAT32 filesystem. I will grant that depending on the complexity of the shot, you may be able to extend that 12 minutes slightly, however that does not change the fact that there is a 4GB limit per recording.

If you wish, tomorrow I will post a video demonstrating the 12-minute recording limit in effect.

[S1PR0DUCTI0NS]

@troy2062 there is no way to prove this point unless in person i know how to cut a clip also not saying you will but i am just saying it is possible to cut a clip to 12 min to prove a point and i would post the 23 min video if youtube allowed but they dont

[troy2062]

@S1PR0DUCTI0NS

No, using my camcorder, I am going to show the recording counter on the camera display stop with the message "Recording has been stopped automatically" when it reaches 11:59.

[S1PR0DUCTI0NS]

@troy2062 ok go for it if you want man i dont care really because it worked for me when i filmed on 4 july so what ever tyou want to do man

[ORbiiTGAMING]

dayum ur camera really picked up the crackles at 3:00 :( hurt my ears
