A good informative comment, thanks

I gotta go with the OP here... comment was to provoke interesting conversation, NOT to promote link IMHO. So, basically, everyone is saying if LINK was omitted, post was OK ? Sounds like a little bias against the OP from the git go... Funny no one commented on substance, just format.... Go figure.

Much as I still love my Sony A6000 for its size and weight, I am finding that I am using my iPhone more in those situations where I don't want to carry my FF A7Riii. I think APS-C is will eventually get squeezed out between smartphones and FF the same way compact cameras got squeezed out.

Who is David McKeegan? Only has 32,000 followers. Not much in YouTube terms.

The answer is "No.” The reason is price.

Dave McKeegan has followers all over the world. Numbers are just for statistics and no indication of the quality and expertise of the reviewer.

Dave Mckeegan is well respected and well reviewed for his thoughtful, well-researched and well presented youtube vids. He also is an excellent, working professional photography that does not spend his entire time grabbing for clicks on youtube.

You would do well to tune in and learn from the over 322 videos Dave has made on all topics photographic.

Some of the youtubers with a million or more subscribers couldn't shoot their way out of a paper bag, and often don't do their diligent research , and don't know what they are talking about, but just throw any controversy out there to make money with clicks.

You comment on numbers is like saying all Porsche and Ferrari cars must be bad because look at the low numbers they sell compared to GM or Ford. lol

I continue to believe that the majority of the cameras in the very near future will be mirrorless.

Show me his work and I'll decide if he is worth following. I watch and follow several competent and outstanding photographers on Youtube, from Scott Kelby to Nick Page to Zack Arias and my favorites Steve Perry, Tom Mangelsen and Clyde Butcher.... blah, blah, blah. And even occaisionally the hypesters Peter Mckinnon, Jared Polin and everybody's favorite Tony Northrup. I've never heard of your Ferrari McKeegan.

I check "Links and Resources" daily where I often find good "How To" references along with opinions I do and do not agree with. Personally, I often learn from persons with whom I disagree -- or at least gain a better understanding of our difference.

I do believe that focusing "Links and Resources" on "How To" and "Opinion" links could improve it. Material that is posted in other sections and on other sites (e.g., YouTube) does not need to be duplicated in "Links and Resources" -- sometimes with a different title. If it is appropriate in another section, it does not need to be duplicated.

Members I regard as the most intelligent commenters sometimes express an opinion or display a bias that I do not agree with. I still read their opinions. Someday I may discover I was wrong. We should never disparage other members.

This is a great site. I revisit it several times every day and have made one purchase where the seller helped me with using PayPal.

The link didn't need to be omitted, just posted in the section designed for posting links. If I'm not mistaken David McKeegan's video is a sponsored video. Linking to it is the same as using UHH to sponsor a for profit video, without UHH seeing any of the profit. UHH is kind enough to provide a space for these posts, so folks, IMHO, should use it as intended.

If people are interested enough, they will find the links by looking in the right place. True, it falls short of spoon feeding but most of us should be able to handle it.
