Canon 70D:
The Canon 70D is a remarkable DSLR (my personal go-to camera) which we borrowed from the Media Department at our school. We used the 70D for the actual filming footage as opposed to behind-the-scenes footage or shooting production stills for our blogs. This was operated by everyone in the group at least once. Coupled with the stabiliser feature or a tripod, it produces surprisingly clean-looking, professional, crisp videos that are high in definition. For example, in our preliminary task, the footage was extremely blurry and shaky due to lack of manual focus and stability. However, this was not the case here with this camera.
Canon 700D:
This is my own camera which I use predominantly for photography, hence why I used this camera with the same memory card for high-definition production stills, behind-the-scenes footage, location shots, close-up shots of costumes and props, etc. The reason this was favoured in the photography area is because it is easy to use and familiar for me. This camera was operated exclusively by me. Despite the photographic results being impressive and high in quality, the filming/video feature is fairly disappointing in comparison. Even with the stabiliser on, footage is shaky and not as sharp as the 70D.
GoPro Hero 4:
This was mostly used for point-of-view shots and over-the-shoulder shots due to the convenience of the portable size and the quality of the footage. The fish-eye effect was interesting but easily adjustable. The quality of the videos produced is easily the highest in this list, with the clips extremely in focus which somehow made all the action sequences seem more realistic and engaging. Experimenting with this camera was very entertaining and productive.
