EOS 200D for videography

[Bamboopictures]

EOS 200D at USD 549 sports some great feature for videography:

-Dual Pixel Autofocus in video mode (found in 80D, M5/6 and Cine line)
-Touch to focus Live View (found in 80D, M5/M6 and C200)
-Full-articulating screen (Found in 80D)
-1080 50p MOV recording
-5 axis electronic image stabilization
- microphone input

Think of it as a shrunken 80D minus the headphone port.
Think of it as an M6 with a fully articulating screen.
Here;s a size comparison with the M5

Strongly recommended for run-and-gun, indoor shooters who only require audio occasionally or 80D shooters who wants a second body to eliminate lens changing or for permanent gimbal use.
(Outdoor shooters should get the M5 for its EVF)
No headphone port but you can velcro the tiny Saramonic Lavmic mixer to the back of the screen to get 2 mic input, a headphone port and a physical mic volume control dial.

Hi Bamboo! The Saramonic Lav Mixer is a good discovery for Sony a6300! I wonder if the playback audio can be heard through it.

Unfortumately, no. But you can try this HDMI to VGA adapter with audio spliter. Just add a micro to HDMI L-adapter to the chain.
