Marques Brownlee shoots his main videos on a RED cinema camera: in November 2024 he called it 'the super high end, the Red camera', and the RED he showed when it arrived in September 2021 was the V-Raptor. His team's colourist said in October 2025 that his A-roll on some videos is shot on a Canon C70, and The Studio lists the C70 with Canon RF 15-35mm and 28-70mm lenses and a Sennheiser MKH 416 as the equipment used in its videos. He edits in Final Cut Pro on a Mac Pro with two Pro Display XDRs, per his March 2026 desk tour.
The items with the strongest sources, in the order most people ask about them. Each card says how we know and when.
