Canon’s newest release might just be the perfect hybrid camera for YouTubers and video professionals! In this video, we go hands-on with the Canon R6V to see if it actually lives up to the hype. I break down the 7K RAW and Open Gate video quality, test the internal cooling fan to see how fast it overheats in 90-degree weather, and review the brand-new Canon RF 20-50mm f/4 Power Zoom lens.

If you are trying to decide between the Canon R6V, the Canon R6 Mark III, or the Canon C50 cinema camera, this video covers all the major pros, cons, and missing features you need to know before you buy.

Our mission here at Think Media is to help purpose-driven entrepreneurs go full-time doing what they love and making an impact through the power of video.

💰 How much do creators actually make?

Let’s do some quick math 🧮

If your YouTube long-form videos earn a $30 RPM (that’s $30 per 1,000 views), then 1 million views = $30,000 in ad revenue. Get ten of those videos performing and you’re looking at $300,000.

Now compare that to short-form. Most platforms pay around $0.06 per 1,000 views 😳
That means 1 million views on Shorts equals about $60.

The difference is huge, but that doesn’t mean short-form isn’t valuable. Shorts build exposure, bring in new audiences, and help you promote your long-form content, where the real income potential lives.

Use short-form to attract attention. Use long-form to build wealth 💡

The "I never thought of it that way" moment is what makes people follow you. 💡

Anyone can share information.
But the creators who build real authority?
They reframe it. 🎯

They take something familiar and flip it just enough to make you see it differently.
That's what makes someone stop scrolling. 🛑
Screenshot a caption.
Share a video.

And more importantly… remember who taught them that. 🧠

Information is everywhere.
Perspective is rare. 🔥

When you consistently give people that "I never thought of it that way" moment…
You're not just another creator.
You become a trusted voice in your space. 💪

That's how you build a brand.

Follow for more content and creator strategy.

Can the Macbook Neo handle heavy editing? Yes. 👀
But should it be your daily driver for it? 😬
That's a different conversation. 👇

Heavy timelines slow it down. ⏳
Export times are longer than you'd want. 💀
The limited ports add friction to an already demanding workflow.
And that 13 inch screen makes detailed color grading genuinely frustrating. 🎨

It'll get the job done.
But on a daily basis with complex projects?
You're going to feel the ceiling. 📈

The Macbook Neo is a great machine for a lot of things. ✅

Serious, heavy editing every single day just isn't really one of them. 🧠
And if advanced editing is your main workflow…
You might want to look at something with a little more power. 🔥

Roberto also reveals why "Device Context" is the secret to winning on YouTube, how to structure your live streams for maximum replay value, and how top creators are using armies of freelance "clippers" to generate hundreds of millions of views every single month.

💰 $80K Sitting in a Trash Can

She almost threw away a video because she didn’t like how her hair looked. She noticed her extensions showing and felt too self-conscious to post it 😬

But she uploaded it anyway… and that video made $80,000 in just two days 🤯

Here’s the lesson: Perfection kills progress. The content you’re overthinking could be the one that changes everything.

People don’t connect with perfect. They connect with real.

So hit publish, even if it’s not flawless. Your next breakthrough might already be sitting in your trash can 🎬🔥
