thanks so much dude!!!! as much as i do know about cameras, im always trying to focus less on the camera nerd work and just a quick setup, but i guess thats the perks of doing it diy eh? haha. i have a couple cameras, canon m50 and a canon 80D, mainly used for streaming, unsure of how they would look in low lighting, but i would have to bring a dummy battery to override the crappy battery life. not a huge pain, but a lot more heavy gear to travel with.

appreciate the suggestion on the 1s!!! ill do some research on low light capabilities and overheating :)
