00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:06.279
you've taken some pictures you've shot some video now you want to step your

00:00:04.000 --> 00:00:11.280
game up you've kind of looked at the tried trusted and true dslrs but what

00:00:08.480 --> 00:00:14.679
about those fancy new mirrorless cameras well right off the bat the biggest

00:00:12.799 --> 00:00:19.199
visual clue when identifying a mirrorless versus DSLR camera is the

00:00:17.359 --> 00:00:22.840
size difference something important to keep in mind if you care about

00:00:20.680 --> 00:00:27.560
portability DSLR systems are a lot bigger because they use the same design

00:00:24.720 --> 00:00:32.000
for the most part as a traditional 35mm film camera that your parents might have

00:00:29.519 --> 00:00:37.239
used there's a dedicated area inside the body where a mirror reflects the light

00:00:34.360 --> 00:00:42.360
to the viewfinder this mirror then flips up when you press the shutter exposing

00:00:39.440 --> 00:00:46.920
the image onto the sensor this setup is considered robust by many because well

00:00:44.520 --> 00:00:51.559
it's worked for a long time but it also adds to the overall weight and size

00:00:49.800 --> 00:00:55.920
comparatively mirrorless systems are lighter smaller and in some ways more

00:00:54.039 --> 00:01:00.359
versatile there's no need for a dedicated space inside the body because

00:00:57.879 --> 00:01:04.680
the system is inherently mirrorless in this scenario the light passes through

00:01:01.960 --> 00:01:08.159
the lens and right onto the sensor now you might be thinking hey Luke if

00:01:06.200 --> 00:01:12.400
there's no mirror then how does the viewfinder work on a mirrorless system

00:01:10.600 --> 00:01:16.360
the viewfinder is electronic and displays the image directly from the

00:01:14.240 --> 00:01:20.640
sensor compared to a traditional Optical viewfinder of a DSLR there are benefits

00:01:18.720 --> 00:01:26.159
to this for instance more information can be displayed such as visual tools to

00:01:23.000 --> 00:01:27.960
help exposure focus and more which are

00:01:26.159 --> 00:01:32.079
especially helpful for those that like to shoot video but although electron IC

00:01:30.119 --> 00:01:35.159
viewfinders are improving rapidly they're still not perfect and they're

00:01:33.479 --> 00:01:39.479
susceptible to things like lag or pixelation which is why many still

00:01:37.159 --> 00:01:44.320
prefer seeing the real thing with the optical viewfinder of a DSLR rather than

00:01:41.880 --> 00:01:48.200
seeing a simulated image on the screen of a mirrorless camera but outside the

00:01:46.439 --> 00:01:52.000
viewfinders another important consideration is lenses different lenses

00:01:50.719 --> 00:01:56.920
provide many different types of functionality almost to the point where

00:01:54.200 --> 00:02:00.079
there are like apps for your phone kind of if you want to look at it that way

00:01:58.479 --> 00:02:04.680
for Now history is on the side with dslrs there are a plethora of lenses

00:02:02.520 --> 00:02:10.319
available to buy but mirrorless systems offer incredibly small and light lenses

00:02:07.360 --> 00:02:15.000
which are further cutdowns on bulk so now we know the physical differences but

00:02:12.480 --> 00:02:19.000
who should be buying what if you're into sports photography then you should pay

00:02:17.400 --> 00:02:23.480
particular interest to mirrorless systems advancements in the field are

00:02:21.360 --> 00:02:27.519
making these systems excellent for continuous shooting as mirrorless

00:02:25.200 --> 00:02:31.840
systems don't have well a mirror that needs to constantly move up and down

00:02:29.599 --> 00:02:36.480
make them operate more quickly mirrorless systems are also catching up

00:02:33.640 --> 00:02:40.760
to dslrs with autofocus speed as they used to be fairly notorious for being

00:02:38.120 --> 00:02:44.440
slower however dslrs offer more for your money on the lower end of the price

00:02:42.239 --> 00:02:48.760
Spectrum as they usually offer a more feature complete camera which is not

00:02:47.000 --> 00:02:53.319
necessarily the case for mirrorless systems mirrorless cameras tend to be

00:02:50.959 --> 00:02:58.120
more compact but miss out on features such as a viewfinder leaving you to rely

00:02:56.080 --> 00:03:01.120
on the screen on the back of the camera at the lower price bracket but what

00:02:59.800 --> 00:03:04.840
whatever you want to go with camera Tech is moving incredibly fast and more

00:03:02.879 --> 00:03:09.840
advanced features are trickling down into both lower price ranges and smaller

00:03:07.400 --> 00:03:14.519
camera bodies so maybe it will soon again make sense to for more people to

00:03:12.280 --> 00:03:19.519
carry around both a smartphone and a separate camera around or they can just

00:03:16.480 --> 00:03:21.519
use like that yellow Batman utility belt

00:03:19.519 --> 00:03:25.480
in the meantime I don't know freshbooks is on a mission to make Freelancers less

00:03:23.440 --> 00:03:30.720
stressed and more organized through their easy to use tool for crafting and

00:03:27.599 --> 00:03:32.319
sending professional invoices in seconds

00:03:30.720 --> 00:03:36.640
freshbooks also helps you track your hour so when it comes time to create

00:03:34.439 --> 00:03:41.360
that invoice you know exactly what you did when you did it and who you did it

00:03:39.040 --> 00:03:45.280
for you can even accept deposits through their platform so your work is paid for

00:03:43.319 --> 00:03:49.480
on your schedule they also have a tool to manage your expense reports their

00:03:47.159 --> 00:03:53.079
mobile app lets you take a picture of your receipt and pretty much just

00:03:51.239 --> 00:03:56.720
handles the rest getting started on freshbooks is extremely simple even if

00:03:55.000 --> 00:04:00.480
you're not a numbers person actually especially if you're not a numbers

00:03:58.400 --> 00:04:06.480
person you can try fresh books for free for 30 days by going to freshbooks.com

00:04:03.879 --> 00:04:09.640
tequi and entering Techquickie in the how did You Hear About Us section let's

00:04:08.239 --> 00:04:14.480
experiment a little bit here instead of liking the video if you like it and disliking the video If You disliked it

00:04:12.400 --> 00:04:19.519
like the video if you're still sticking with the slrs dislike the video if

00:04:17.280 --> 00:04:22.400
you're more into mirrorless cameras I might have to explain to lonus why the

00:04:21.040 --> 00:04:26.639
like to dislike on this video is super screwed but do it anyways I'm really

00:04:24.600 --> 00:04:30.479
interested in the results also another thing to do check out this video which

00:04:28.400 --> 00:04:35.199
is probably covering my face it's a mini drone little kind of video thing on

00:04:32.680 --> 00:04:38.120
Channel Super Fun that's super well fun and you should check it out get

00:04:36.400 --> 00:04:47.280
subscribed over there get subscribed over here and then have a wonderful

00:04:39.759 --> 00:04:47.280
freaking day man yeah just enjoy it
