My ZV1-F is coming in a couple of days! I'm so excited, I got extra batteries for it, a travel pouch and a proper SD card. Will definitely get the wide angle lens soon!
Thank you for addressing the wide angle lens adapter and ulanzi lens as an accessory most reviews skipped that part. I have the zv1 but thought to get the zv1f JUST to avoid the adhesive adapter wide lens without adding too much bulk & weight like the neewer lens does, but also liked the user friendly touch screen, wider lens (without wide lens adapter) longer run time without overheating, easier share to phone feature, & so on. Heard a lot of cons & advise to stick with zv1 but the cons don’t bother me as much so I thought to find out for my self, worst case scenario, return it with 30 days lol 3:20
Thanks for this video i just picked up every single accessory you mentioned and already like the look and feel of the camera way more. You're a legend for this video.
hey buddy! fellow creator here just want to let you know I was looking for a compatible wide lens for my zv1f in google, and it ended up bringing me here! i appreciate the help because this was the exact lens i was hoping was compatible
Idk if they brought it back or not but for a short period of time smallrig had a handle attachment that made the handle bigger and gave it more attachment points, I think it's way better than the one you mentioned
Have had this camera a while, definitely getting the new mic thing as the one that came with it is terrible so I've never actually used it! Was looking it up as wondering about lenses, when I'm using it I often find for non-vlogs the 2X zoom isn't enough, can I buy bigger zoom lenses for it? What contector/ adaptors would I need? Bit of a newbie with some of this stuff so all advice appreciated!
from what I noticed, the background plans lost sharpness around the edges as soon as you used the Ulanzi lens? Is the difference evident in your raw footage or is it something to do with post processing?
Even though I love cameras, audio is more important than the video. And that’s where this camera wins 💯but if stabilization is what you prefer then the GoPro wins in that category. ( I chose this for vlogging myself ) best bang for your 💵
Congrats on the new camera. its a light and compact but the battery life gets depleted fast while recording. So I recommend a second battery so you can continue to create while the other battery is charging. for this and any camera 😉
amzn.to/3WMPcYi for the memory card. and the built in mic is very good, my mic recommendation is amzn.to/4crJQHM which is a wireless upgrade. Hope this helps.
Yep, most modern cameras that have a mic port switch automatically.Tip: if you dont want any audio just plug a cable with nothing attached. it will bypass the built in mics' @@RandomlyRonnieJr
@@MrCameraJunkie thank you, I'll be looking to utilize a 3.5 RODE lav, so I'll give it a test and see if it switches automatically. I'll explore the usage w/ the streamyards app as well.
Unfortunately the ZV-1F has a cold shoe, that means it doesn’t have any electrical connection for flashes and controllers. It’s a video centric camera so video lights for photos as well. 👍🏽
If you mean a Strobe flash, then No. This camera has a "cold shoe" meaning that it doesn't have electronics support. "hot shoe" has external flash/strobe support.
Can someone please recommend a memory card? I have been searching and searching and no one can point me to an actual brand name. I've read the manuals, and done Google searches, but I'm not technology savvy so telling me the descriptions of the compatibility is not helpful. Please someone, anyone, give me some direction :)

I'm glad you found my video useful. this has been one of my most used cameras this year. It wouldn't surprise me if it does the same for you.👍🏽

Happy it helped👍🏽
The wide angle lens has just sold me on the zv1f, was looking at a zv1f or a zv1 mark 2, mark 2 was winning with the 18 frame, thank you!
Glad you found it useful. 👊🏽
Just bought this camera! Thanks for the accessory recommendations
Happy to help 👍🏽
Thank you so much I just got my Sony ZV1F and i was wondering which accessories to choose
Glad I could help! Thanks for watching👏🏽
I'm still thinking about getting this camera for vlogging. Right now I'm using my 6600 but I hate tearing it down every time I want to vlog.
That is one of it's key features "Simplicity" 😉👍🏽
I’ve had the original ZV1 for over a year and I just bought a screen protector 🙃
Great list and great video 😊
Hi Kim, glad you liked it. Hope you and your family are doing well 😊
On the minute 3:31, you should reflect under the description, what shades you're using. It's nice 🙃👍
Look for Carrera Style Sunglasses 👍🏽

That’s dope! Thanks for that bit of info. Don’t forget to get the step up ring with the lens 😉👍🏽
Same!
This was so helpful! My camera will be here tomorrow and I cant wait to use it !
Happy it helped. Congrats on the new camera
@@MrCameraJunkie Thank you!

I'll look into it, thanks👍🏽
Thanks bro... this helped immensely. I know my niche, but I don't know cameras. Definitely taking your advice
Thanks for the support, happy to be of service.

You are great brother

Great vid man. Just what I was looking for plus some.
Happy it helped. 🫡 Talk to you
Love your video I just bought a Sony ZV-1F for UA-cam solo podcasting plz make more videos about the ZV-1F thank you 💯
Thanks! Will do!

You might need the ZV-1, the ZV-1F has a fixed lens.(20mm) the ZV-1 has a zoom lens with more range.
from what I noticed, the background plans lost sharpness around the edges as soon as you used the Ulanzi lens? Is the difference evident in your raw footage or is it something to do with post processing?
Yeah don’t get these I bought it and it’s so dissorted and wavy, hurts my eyes to look at. Get the neewer wide lens instead
The lens will add width to your shot, but I was also using background defocus mode. that adds to the blurriness ( Bokeh ) in the background.
What size do I need for a step up ring for my Zv-1f
this size 😉: amzn.to/40wDuRB
Would you recommend this camera over the gopro11 for casual vlogging? Just want to get your thoughts!

Hello I just got this camera for Christmas
I’m confused with recommending to buy a second battery
Isn’t the camera come with a charger ?
Congrats on the new camera. its a light and compact but the battery life gets depleted fast while recording. So I recommend a second battery so you can continue to create while the other battery is charging. for this and any camera 😉
@@MrCameraJunkie thank you , you’re a goat 🐐
Also what settings do you recommend if I’m going to be using this camera for music videos
What focal length are you really at when using 4k and stabilization?
It’s a fixed lens @ 20mm equivalent
Any recommendations for a memory card for this? Also mic recommendations welcome for talking head videos with this camera :)
amzn.to/3WMPcYi for the memory card. and the built in mic is very good, my mic recommendation is amzn.to/4crJQHM which is a wireless upgrade. Hope this helps.
Great video
Thanks bro 👊🏽
Hey brotha. Do you know of any lapel mics with a receiver that goes on top of the camera and plugs into the aux port that work with the ZV1F?
This should work : amzn.to/462aTX6
Can you recommend a teleprompter that is compatible with this?
Do you know how to adjust the settings from using the built-in microphone vs a 3.5 inch wired or wireless Rode/lav mic?
Just plug it in. It switches automatically
@@MrCameraJunkie on the Sony ZV1 too? or does that just apply to the ZV1-F
Yep, most modern cameras that have a mic port switch automatically.Tip: if you dont want any audio just plug a cable with nothing attached. it will bypass the built in mics'

@@MrCameraJunkie thank you, I'll be looking to utilize a 3.5 RODE lav, so I'll give it a test and see if it switches automatically. I'll explore the usage w/ the streamyards app as well.
look into TRS vs TRRS. this could be an issue if you are unfamiliar( most cameras mic are TRS ) @@RandomlyRonnieJr
well made video
Link for the white light attachment?
amzn.to/3DWH2nu there you go 👍🏽
How do you charge the extra battery? Does it come with a charging dock?
I have a wall charger for the extra batteries from a previous camera. But you can find them easily on Amazon.
Thank you
Can i Put a external microphone with the SmallRig Adapter or just a light/flash?
You can but that would defeat the purpose. If you are using an external mic just use the cold shoe because you'll be bypassing the internal mic.
How do you set up adapter ‘ I have it and I’m
Confused
The adapter that comes in the box with the lens is for the ZV-1 to use it with the ZV-1F you'll need the step up ring amzn.to/40wDuRB
I’m looking forward to get myself one before 2025!!!
One of the best bang for buck cameras available RN
What external flash can i use for the zv-1f?
Unfortunately the ZV-1F has a cold shoe, that means it doesn’t have any electrical connection for flashes and controllers. It’s a video centric camera so video lights for photos as well. 👍🏽
Bought this camera for $280 in perfect conditions.
Awesome deal. That's a no brainer price👍🏽
How did you find it at that price? I want one but the lowest I’ve seen a new one is around $400
@@alftookaebay i found one for 320 perfect condition
@@ebonygorl alright thank you for letting me know
I just bought one yesterday for $250 😅. Hope this camera help me to do get a professional-look of my vlogs.
Lol at the Kasey cameo.
HAHA you're the first to comment on it 😜👍🏽
@@MrCameraJunkie I'm a hobo UA-camr so......
Do you own the Go-Hobo Pro? probably one of my favorite lines 😂@@ChadsGarage1
@@MrCameraJunkie I'm actually selling one at the moment. I can't take it anymore!
For $400+ you’d think they would include a 10c lanyard.
IMO, $400 and you don't have to buy a lens. lanyard is up to you.
Do you know if any flash can be connected to sony zv1f?
Nope, it only has a cold shoe. no digital connections.
Hey bro please help me which tele promoter ı Can use with this
This is the teleprompter I recommend RN, hope this helps. amzn.to/3yWQvw5
DJI action 4 or Sony ZV-1F ???
DJI for stabilization, Sony for better image quality.
Can you use a dji mic or rode mic with this?
Yes, any 3.5mm mic can be used
The HDMI is the most important if you want to go live or vlog in 4k
Any links for accesories
All links are in the description 👍🏽
Hi. What’s the specific name for adapter mic with white light ?
amzn.to/3Sr3ZaX is the light in the video
how do i put the lense on the zv1f it’s not working
Did you get the step up ring with the lens?
@@MrCameraJunkie yes i got it ! i wasn’t looking at first lol
@@dayonaldridge4709 Have fun with your new gear 😉
@@MrCameraJunkie the sticky adapter rings are horrible ! 😩 it keeps coming off i’m all out of em . Is it over ?
@@dayonaldridge4709 Like I mentioned before,You need this: amzn.to/40wDuRB
Can I add a flashlight to this camera?
If you mean a Strobe flash, then No. This camera has a "cold shoe" meaning that it doesn't have electronics support. "hot shoe" has external flash/strobe support.
any compatible gimbal for this camera guys?
Yes but I don't use gimbals, with this camera being so lightweight and having S&Q. My handheld footage looks great.
The images looked weird with the lenses added even the plant in the back
Yeah, when adding the wide angle lens it adds more blur to the background. it's a stylistic choice.
Can someone please recommend a memory card? I have been searching and searching and no one can point me to an actual brand name. I've read the manuals, and done Google searches, but I'm not technology savvy so telling me the descriptions of the compatibility is not helpful. Please someone, anyone, give me some direction :)
Best option: amzn.to/4bqyL9A
Alt. option: amzn.to/3VOpfqZ
or amzn.to/3L7eLhC happy shopping
I just got mine but I don’t know I feel some of the accessories are over priced
Price is relative to your budget, all of the items I mentioned are $50 or less. Less than $100 total. Good luck and congrats on the new camera.
With the white lense it looks like ur high like a gta 5 clips ifykyk wide angle kit so no go
its not for everyone 👍🏽
