The only downsides are that this process is a bit more of a faff compared to a GoPro, and the fact that audio is limited to a single microphone. The Insta Go 2 also lacks a built-in screen to help you compose shots. But if none of these issues are deal-breakers for you, it's otherwise a fine choice for the roaming YouTuber.
If you're looking for a YouTube camera that also doubles as a fine travel camera for photos, then the Panasonic G is one of the strongest contenders around. While this isn't generally necessary for vlogging or shooting videos, it is a useful addition for shooting photos in bright conditions.
What about its video skills? These are also strong, if not quite class-leading. One standout feature is the G's Nokia Ozo-equipped triple microphone setup, which does a better job than most cameras in this list of isolating voices from background noise, and also cleverly works with the camera's face-tracking. Video quality is also very good, with good colors and plenty of detail. The reason why the G isn't higher up this list is because it has a rather large 1.
Still, this might not be a major issue if you or your subjects tend to stay relatively still in your YouTube videos, the G is otherwise one of the best 4K all-rounders at this size and price point.
Read our in-depth Panasonic G review. The flip-up touchscreen is handy for self-shooting, and it can shoot crisp uncropped 4K at 30fps or p at a smooth fps. But if you do want to broaden your shooting horizons, there's always the option of adapting Canon's huge range of EF lenses. Panasonic's full-frame mirrorless cameras arguably failed to catch the world's attention, thanks to a number of key problems.
Keen to address those issues, the Panasonic S5 brings a smaller and more portable body, better autofocusing, but still keeps the video-friendly specs that vloggers and YouTubers have come to love the company for.
You get 4K recording, with a crop applied at 60p but not at 30p , a fully-articulating screen, V-log support, and dual memory cards. The standard kit lens starts at 20mm, making it well-suited to filming clips to camera even with a crop applied.
It's also a neatly compact optic that matches well to the small size of the S5 - which is now smaller than its Micro Four Thirds cousin, the G9.
One of the big downsides of the S5 is that other cameras can outclass it when it comes to super-fast autofocusing, while another is the fact that other lenses for the system are much bigger and bulkier. If you're somebody that likes to shoot stills as well as video, this is a good hybrid all-rounder though. Designed very much with video in mind, the G95 known as the G90 outside North America has a raft of features and functions that make it great for shooting YouTube content. Its new, smaller Panasonic G sibling is now here see above , but this model is well worth considering because it offers in-body image stabilization IBIS.
The flip-out OLED touchscreen, headphone output, mic input, hotshoe, IBIS, weatherproof build and variety of video formats which include V-Log L for perfectionists who want to dabble in post-shoot color grading make it a powerful and versatile performer.
The G90 is also fairly pricey for a mid-range model, especially when bought with the good quality power zoom kit lens. Styled like a DSLR lens, it can clip to the top of a monitor for slick sit-down streaming. Alternatively, use the tripod attachment to flexibly position the Pro — ideal for creative framing or recording handheld segments, such as unboxings. The camera itself is larger than a standard webcam due to its powerful sensor, which is capable of capturing footage at a smooth 60fps.
Exposure is excellent as standard and the adaptive sensor does a stellar job pulling in all available light. Switching to HDR mode limits the frame rate to 30fps, but improves the balance of highlights and shadows. Not everybody wants to invest in a dedicated camera just for YouTube. It simply attaches to your phone via magnets - which also means you can quickly release it when you want to use the phone for other purposes. You can also fold down the gimbal for quick and easy transportation, too.
While your needs will vary slightly depending on the kind of videos you're looking to shoot, there are five main features that you should look for in a YouTube camera:.
Whether it flips out to the side or pivots up to the top, an articulating screen is a godsend when trying to film yourself. By giving you a live preview of the shot composition, exposure and focus, it helps you get the basics right so you can concentrate on other aspects of your video.
Manual focus has its place in filmmaking, but to keep everything as simple and straightforward as possible it pays to pick a camera with great video autofocus. Filming on the hoof can result in shaky, hard to watch footage. Thankfully a lot of modern cameras come with image stabilization optical, electronic or a combination of the two to automatically compensates for motion.
Some, it should be noted, do it much better than others. Alternatively, a gimbal can stabilize pretty much any camera, at the cost of adding bulk. Check potential buys for mic inputs and a hot shoe for mounting mics. You might want to consider headphone sockets too: they allow you to monitor audio levels while recording. YouTubers use a range of cameras to capture their content. But there are certain cameras which are particularly popular with a number of well-known YouTube content creators.
It also supports all manner of filming formats, making it ideal for content creators who like to tweak their footage before sharing online. Helpfully, a number of YouTubers use less expensive cameras which can still capture high-quality footage. The Sony ZV-1 is increasingly becoming a favorite among YouTube vloggers who like to walk and talk, while the original Panasonic Lumix GH5 is another more affordable model which continues to be used by several YouTubers.
