Today, I’m answering all your questions about switching from a DSLR to a mirrorless camera!

I switched cameras earlier this year from the Canon 5Dmk3, a DSLR camera, to the mirrorless Canon R6, and I’ve been loving having a new camera to play with.

I’ve had SO many questions about switching from a DSLR to a mirrorless camera in general, things like whether it was worth making the switch from a DSLR to a mirrorless camera, whether I had any problems with accessories or lenses, what was the most challenging thing to learn and so on, so today, I wanted to answer some of the most common ones I’ve received about changing over!

I recently switched to the Canon R6 from my trusty Canon 5Dmk3, and today, I'm taking you behind the scenes of my thought process and going through the key differences between these two cameras, and ultimately why I switched.

Ready to grow your prime lens collection but not sure what lens to buy next? Or which prime lenses work together? What your "holy trinity" of lenses should be?!

This is probably one of my most asked questions, both from my Auto to Awesome students and from blog readers, because it can be really difficult to know the right way to grow your prime lens collection, and which lens is going to make you the biggest difference to your photos.

I know that I definitely didn’t go about adding to my lens line up in the right way, and i wasted a lot of money that could have been better spent elsewhere - and as always, I want YOU to avoid the mistakes that I made.

So in this video, I walk through the questions to ask yourself when choosing your next lens, some ideas for recommended lenses for child and family photography, and the order in which to purchase any lenses to add to your collection.

This week’s video is the final part in our 3 part series where I take you behind the scenes and give you a guided tour of what’s inside my camera bag.
