Looking to start Vlogging? There are so many options out there for cameras and it can be hard to choose which one you’re going to invest in to start your Youtube journey. Luckily, I spent months of research choosing the best affordable kit available meaning you don't have to! I’ve been using my Canon M50 and recently added the Lumix S5 camera and I really enjoy their balance of features, image quality, reliability and compact size. 

Here's a quick run down of my current gear and where to buy!

Lumix S5 Body

The compact and lightweight Panasonic Lumix S5 camera is my latest purchase and provides 24.2MP full-frame stills and 4K/60p video.

Mavic Drone

In my opinion this is one of the best folding drones on the market. With a fully-stabilized 3-axis gimbal and reliable 4K camera it’s the perfect aerial companion!

Camera Bag

There are five points to consider when I buy a backpack. Durability,Accessibility, Storage and Size, Aesthetics and Value. Thankfully this bag ticks all those boxes!

Wide Lens

This ultra-wide angle 11-22mm EF-M mount zoom lens for the Canon M50 is better for Vloggers who wish to capture more of the landscape in the background.

External Mic

This compact and lightweight microphone has been with me since day one. The furry windshield eliminates background noise when recording outdoors.

Wireless Mic

Wireless mics can be expensive, but these are the gold standard in noisy environments and allow you to walk away from the camera.

Power Bank 

With lots of equipment comes the need to keep things charged on the go. I use this high-speed-charging, long-lasting, portable power bank by Anker.
