YouTube has become a huge part of Young, Dumb, and NOT Broke?! and these tools have made my life 1000x easier. Seriously, I started out filming with an iPhone propped up on a ladder (janky I know). But I did what I had to do and after investing in these products my channel went to a whole new level.

The Sony A6400 is an AMAZING camera. Going from an iPhone to was a huge leap and one I’m glad I took. The A6400’s quality is unmatched and the flip-up screen makes videoing yourself quite simple. It also has a mic port which is a must.

To be honest I didn’t know anything about lenses so I went with this 18-135mm lens. This is a great all in one lens that works for everything from videoing inside to taking some great shots in nature. I’m very glad I had this lense when we went to Banff National Park.

This light stand took my video game to the next level. You’ll notice in some of my earlier videos that the lighting was TERRIBLE. Having this ring light that I can direct wherever I want has made lighting for videos so simple. Honestly, I think having good lighting in video production is underrated. Step your game up with this product.

I told you I started out by filming on an iPhone but I still wanted to have some quality to my videos. This easy, plug and play mic, allowed me to do just that. I didn’t really think these would work that well because they are cheap but they improve the quality multiple times over.
