Hi Mark! I purchased the ZV-E10 through your affiliate links and I do love it. It has a better overall image and focus (especially in low-light) than the Pocket 3 which I also own. But, pulling out your ZV-E10 with a gimbal reminds me of the scene with Jim Carrey in the Mask where he pulls those huge guns and calls the thugs (in this case with the Pocket 3) punks. :-) If you're mostly studio and static work, then I would go with the ZV-E10. If you're mostly vlogging and run and gun, the Pocket 3 is the way to go. The ZV-E10 has superior optics, but outdated technology in a lot of ways. The DJI has inferior optics (compared to the ZV-E10 and a good lens) but has some of the most advanced technology out there. The motion timelapses on the DJI are super easy and are absolutely stellar.
Great detailed comparison as always! Hard to beat the size of the Pocket 3 but I do prefer the image of the ZV-E10 but I'm not one to carry a whole gimbal set-up especially when traveling and thus why I picked up the Pocket 3.
Great video as usual! I recently acquired the Pocket 3 and, after thorough testing, I've observed that HLG mode yields a more visually pleasing result compared to D-Log. The key difference lies in the color spaces: HLG utilizes BT.2020, offering more flexibility in color saturation, whereas D-Log is confined to Rec.709, which limits color play and tends to deteriorate rapidly in low light conditions. Consequently, I've decided to primarily use HLG mode. Adapting to Pocket 3 has been a bit of a journey, especially after being accustomed to Sony's ecosystem for the last 15-20 years. In my comparisons between Pocket 3 and the Sony RX100VII, I noticed that the RX100VII, with its SLog3 setting, outperforms Pocket 3 in daylight, offering a superior image quality despite being 8-bit. However, in indoor or night settings, the Pocket 3 significantly surpasses the RX100VII. And one more thing. I am really disappointed that DJI does not have Aperture. Now testing with Variable ND filters and it is no fun to use them. In run-and-gun situations, I would probably should forget about Shutter priority and run it wild up to 1/8000. :)

the DJI pocket 3 is great for recording yourself in situations where you don't want a large camera drawing attention to itself. I've been able to clip it to a music stand, set it in a corner, or on a table to record myself playing gigs, and its just this little narrow candy bar sized thing. Much better than trying to use an iphone in this situation, where you can't even utilize the best cameras without guessing about the footage. Also, the built in mics sounded better than I expected them to! You can also monitor the footage on your phone, and move the camera remotely if you need to :)
Thank You for this amazing comparison! Even though Zve10 is always my favorite, I think the Versatility and Flexibility the Pocket 3 offers is hard to match, and also the IQ out of P3 is quite impressive. Dji really upped the game with this.
I have the Sony, on your recommendation, and been looking at DJI pocket 3. This comparison was brilliant and once available again I will get the creator pack. I do a 50/50 split between office and travel blogs so combining both will be brilliant. Thanks for another great great video that really helps the viewer to consider what will work for them
The DJI looks so much better than it should. I consider it a much better vlogging setup. Small, lighter, smaller to hold… ZVE10 still has better image quality, but not by that much at least in well lit situations.

There are affordable 1.4 and even 1.2 lenses for the zv-e10 - I can’t pretend it’s a fixed f2 lens when it is not. But also, a f2 on an apsc is still much better in lowlight than an f2 on a one inch sensor. You can buy bright lenses for the zv-e10 but it’s bigger and is less stable. the pocket 3 has f2 fixed - so that is what it’s capable of. I designed these tests to be as practical as possible for buyers.
@@MarkBennettCameraCrisis Its not practical to need 3 lenses and a gimbal so show the Zv-e10. The money and the work involved matters to most, when buying a camera.
Thanks for the review, I do not have the E10 but the FX30, but like the DJI for its small size. Take it you just bought the camera set, not the creator one. Love the Mic2 included with that creator set, it being able to remotely trigger the camera, and wide angle lens, extended battery and table tripod included for just a few dollars more. Your experience with the DJIs night mode are odd, mine are much much better. Not sure what makes the difference. Especially using the mist filter on the DJI makes for fantastic night shots in cities. I did not expect the DJI to win over your beloved E10, but it finds its place in my gear park. Its smartphone app Mimo is also great, planning to get a smartphone holder for the DJI. Also tested livestreaming to UA-cam, not a perfect workflow getting there, but fun to use. Enjoy the DJI and its active tracking with your kids.
I already ordered the creator pack myself and will send back this basic package. The low light vlog I did was in very dark conditions. A street with barely and light. Regular sixty lights would make it work much better
First of all, I care, second, I'd buy the osmo 3 all day long, the zve10 has some issues like the very slow sensor readout, that alone can make it useless with the wrong light at a closed place or at night, the convenience of having a gimbal on your pocket is amazing, I've been using my osmo 1 since it launched for weddings and it has make me good money, I'll go to the States early next year and I'll get the osmo 3, of course this taking is only for video, for photos I've a good old a7r3, I really wish dji starts making some cameras only, their quality is just amazing, osmo 3 for only $500 can record 4k 120p, Sony zv1 for $700 can only do 4k 30p
I think your wife's hard earned money was well spent LOL I almost always use CB for my Sony footage and I can't stand the process of having to use CB but I love the results, so it's the only way lol My DJI showed up today though, can't wait to get out and try it! Stay safe out there ;)
ya, i just received my osmo pocket 3 two weeks ago. is reall handy easy to use, light weight. especially 4K 120p. slow mo. my zv-e10 with 17-70mm tamron is much heavy together with crane 4 gimbal, heavy to do vlog.
Great review. Like as always. I’ve been looking at that DJI one since it came out. Right now think I’ll just use the funds to buy a lens for my ZV-E10. Iike to see your review of the Sony ZV-1 vs DJI. I have the ZV-1 and like it a lot. That would help me make up my mind.
Hey Mark, as always I watch all your stuff it’s by far the best camera review channel. I’ve purchased a FX30 and A7iv based on your stuff. What I would love to see is a review of the DJI action 4. I have considered getting one. Would love to see how the log shooting in the action 4 works out.
Thought both looked good @handsome alley, and if you want to walk around in rail-yards the OP3 a better choice if you don’t want to haul around a lot of other gear (gimbal etc)…making you less likely to be candidate for a mugging (there is a reason railroads have their own police force 😊). I did prefer the narrower field of view on little Dougie though. Both got a little too dark when lights lower than 50%, though its hard to beat a 1.4 lens. Great video Mark!
Very handsome comparison. I can see the DJI Osmo P3 would be great for travel vlogs since the location you're filming in would be the "star" of the video. With the deeper focus, the Osmo would have more of the environment in focus, which is perfect for travel videos.
I took my old Panasonic DC-GX9 and my DJI OSMO Action 4 with me on my recent 6 weeks in of the Far East. In addition to the aforementioned, I also have my Google Pixel 6 Pro phone with me. Here's the % use of the 3 cameras: DC-GX9: 90% Pixel 6 Pro: 9% Most of the time I just have the Action 4 in my left pocket and my Google Pixel in my right pocket. The Panasonic turned out to be a waste of time. I do quite a bit of walking videos and the Pocket 3 looks like a good addition.
I have been one of the people waiting for this comparison! Thank you so much! I’m a cheap sob when it comes to most everything so I do extensive UA-cam research and your channel is by far the best for cameras. I’ve been dabbling with homesteading content outside and I’ve come to the conclusion the smaller and easier to use dji is the way to go for me. I especially enjoy the tracking feature so I can run around and do stuff with the animals and not have to constantly reposition. If anything the price for all of the zv e10 accessories I’d rather have 2 DJI’s set up tracking me from different perspectives! (I will admit the zv does look better though) Great video and thank you again!
I have the original Pocket and still use it. It is great to be inconspicuous compared to Dougie on a gimbal. If a person just wants something simple DJI is a great choice.
Definitely at night ZV-E10 is a winner. Personally, I prefer ZV-E10 , it gives you flexibility and many possibilites to change the lens as you wish. The only 2 issues with ZV-e10 that it's bulk and stability which I can overcome by using a gimble or catalyst browse. I will definitely go for the ZV-e10.
No, it is not. He is using a very expensive Sony 11mm 1.6 lens. That's cheating. The clear winner is the Osmo Pocket 3. That's why this is one of my favorites channels, but not on my top list.
Thinking about getting the OP3 to shoot automotive B roll like rollers and bringing with me to car meets. Would you recommend getting it or getting a gimbal for my A6400? Mainly just want something fast and easy
Doug’s clone is what I still use for my talking head videos. ZVE10 is still great. I have the A7IV for photography and ZVE1 for vlogging, but ZVE10 is perfect in a small studio.
Excellent video as always. By the way, I just purchased the ZV-E10 and the Sigma lens you always mention. They better be good, or I'm taking your FX30 :) Hold the emergency. I'm trying to vlog here, hahaha:P
@@MarkBennettCameraCrisis Hey Mark! Do you have any videos showing the best way to use the webcam for the ZV-E10? I'm planning to use it not just for talking head shots but also in front of a computer with a green screen. I would appreciate it if you could help, especially with a Sigma lens Or do I need any other lenses for this purpose? Also FX30 is now 1599$ should I use zv-e10 for now or should I get FX30. Talking head and webcam purpose? Thank you
Oh yes, it does the same thing, not really a fan of how the stabilization is working on the DJI, I see some jumping on the subject, is like if the background is lock but the subject moves a lot, is something I was not noticing but now I can't unsee. I was expecting more like the ZV-E10, more stable subject and some movement on the background is acceptable.
Full size camera companies need to start looking at what action camera companies are doing, and implementing the same tech. Full size cameras are still slightly better, but just barely...for now.
That video probably wouldn't be very popular - but I will tell you that the GH5 is great and a professional tool with 10-bit 4.2.2 and two card slots and great stabilization - however, it has terrible autofocus and is not good at all in lowlight. Manually focusing everything is difficult. Now if you had a bunch of micro 4/3 lenses and you liked manually focusing, the GH5 is still a great option. But If you want autofocus, better lowlight and access to Sony's amazing lens system, the ZV-E10 will be the way to go
Really enjoy your videos, hope you get sponsorships so you can do more comparisons =) I'm using a ZV-E10, really want a beginner proof guide to setup cinematic settings with Leeming Luts and the ZV-E10, start to finish without looking through the PDF (no clue yet on Zebras, or what to make of the different exposure settings and pic profiles)
Great video Mark. Could you make a comparison between the ZV-E1 with a vlog lens, like the 11mm 1.8 and the dji pocket 3? It would be really interesting to see. Thanks mate
I 've seen most of you excellent and funny videos! I have zve10 for 5 months now with 4 lenses and I get very nice photos! But for handheld video? I find it a big challenge so I am ready to buy the osmo for my motorcycle traveling videos and keep the little workhorse just for photo shooting! Thank you man!!
interesting how when many people want to show vlogging test they go to where NO one is. because we all know carrying zve10 and a gimbal is horrendous to use in public, too much attention. the dji pocket for the win. if the camera is static mounted, then any camera really is fine. Dji didnt come intime now ive got to sell my zv1. and im sorry but catalyst browse is not realistic for a vlogger who vlogs regularly with lots of clips of different lengths, unless you vlog once a while. zve10 is not a vloggers camera. infact all sony zv cameras arent. they are marketed as one but fail badly.
Hi Mark. What would you think if you started recording a series of episodes on how to choose the best settings for Zve10 to take photos or record videos in various situations? 🤔
If I had no experience with cameras/manual settings, the Osmo Pocket 3 is a no-brainer. Would even consider getting one for my kids. The onboard audio was noticeably better. The stabilization is good, but it did have a bit of jitter (not sure if you can ever truly get rid of that). However, if you do know how to use manual settings on a camera, I feel like even starting with the zv-e10 with kit lens and a small gimbal would be a huge step up. Then buy a good mic (either wireless or on-camera). Just upgrade accordingly.
I have no experience and just bought the Sony zv e10! for Christmas. I think I’m going to trade it in for the Osmo Pocket 3 because I’m planning lots of international trips this year and will be vlogging about it. I hope I’m making the right decision for now, at least.
@@shawnpreston1639 I think for travel, that Osmo would be great. You can always save up and get a larger body camera system down the line. Enjoy your travels!
Can i ask you a question I have a stage show and looking for a camera that I can use to video about two hours and then reselll the video. What do you think would be best?
i have both, i use the osmo p3 often until a month a go the screen issue which some users encountered occurs. i have to return the unit for a repair. Other than that its great as it has 10bit format. its an all around great pocket camera without bringing bulky stuff and bringing extra thing like my zv e10.
The ZV-E10 looks awesome. The DJI Pocket 3 is hard to beat for such a small camera. I can buy the DJI Pocket 3 for $519 at Best Buy or Amazon in Kingsport, Tennessee. I have used the Pocket 2 since it came out in September 2020. I will probably buy the Pocket 3.
damn that pocket 3 is good for the size and money. the way i see is the ZV-E10 is an awesome base: looking for a budget wildlife camera ? get ZV-E10 + good zoom lens looking for a budget studio camera ? get ZV-E10 + one of many great lenses looking for a vlogging camera get ZV-E10 + sony 11MM or 16MM + gimbal looking for a great webcam ? ZV-E10 with kit lens or sigma 16MM + camlink 4K the ZV-E10 have amazing flexibility to do everything but it will cost u some serious $$ (relative to phone/action cam/pocket 3) to do it and the size too. the Pocket 3 give up some of that flexibility to give u ton of valve mainly for vlogging, b-roll and even the studio and webcam options are nice. ** i think that park will be ready just in time for your children's childrens :P
the Pocket3 is perfect to have. the discreet nature of it. people will not be intimidated by the Pocket3, but when you pull out a camera, irrespective of the size people would no longer be in their natural element. Some locations wold not accept a camera, but would easily allow the Pocket3
All of the outdoor shots in the forrest in this video here are with the Pocket 3 - it's about the best you can do for blur. ua-cam.com/video/F0j2I3Jqqmo/v-deo.htmlsi=tAg42AjA4-rwiY3i
@@MarkBennettCameraCrisis is this true? This is from DJI support chat on website. Upon checking, Osmo Pocket 3 features a 1-inch large aperture lens, which gives a shallow depth of field (DOF). When shooting objects at different distances at close range, the bokeh effect is more pronounced.
Love your humour Mark 😊 and thx for this review. Eying the DJI Pocket 3 as well, for the same reasons. But now Insta360 introduced the Ace Pro, which looks very interesting, too...analysis paralysis🤪
Just a side point I have been told that iphone 15 pro max camera is much better than sony zv-e10 kit lens.I can't judge because I am not using either sony zv-e10 nor iphone 15 pro max; Therefore, I wonder if you can make a comparison and guide us which sony zv-e10 lens can outperform the iphone 15 pro max lens. I would like to know before I make a purchase whether to buy the zv-e10 or the iphone 15 pro max as i don't want to spend a fortune on sony zv-e10 lens.
@@MarkBennettCameraCrisis The comparison is flawed when a camera is almost twice as expensive. Which child has the money? Which parents should pay for it? The DJI pocket 3 already costs twice as much as the DJI pocket 2. If you compare the ZV with the FX3, the winner is the FX3. And now?
I am a car videographer with a tight budget trying to get clients and I am leaning more towards the Pocket 3 because when I get the Sony I have to buy lens, gimbal, Sd cars and etc, so my question is can I get clients with the Pocket 3?
DJI Pocket 3 is now the best camera for vlogging especially if you got Creator Combo with the Wireless Mic 2. It's not ideal ... but it's close to perfection :D. And I say Normal color profile in Pocket 3 is a way to go ... zero color grading needed ... you can upload straight from the SD card :D.
Once more you manage to answer many questions and that's not a compliment, just a spontaneous statement! Now, some questions, when you have the time to reply. When I travel, I try to be as portable as possible. I use a combination of the Sony A 6400 with the same gimbal you have, or GoPro 10 and my Samsung S22 (I will upgrade to the iPhone for the Log option soon). I am planning to upgrade to the Sony A 6700 very soon and buy the Sigma f 1.4, which I have not done so far because my current camera has no IBIS. For the night video, will I be okay with maybe f2.0 (down from f1.4) and maybe no more than ISO 1.600 indoors? Currently, I use an f1.8 stabilised Sony but at 35 mm, with a Cine profile at -100 detail, as I find that HLG creates artefacts with high ISO. For studio or stock footage work, I prefer the big camera, but I am eying the Pocket 3 for YT videos, day and mostly night ones. I would really like to know if Pocket 3 is not jittery at night like my mobile is for example. I don't want to use the Zhuyin M2S I own with my Sony for a long time at night, plus a portable Pocket 3, is less crowd annoying in public spaces. I am a video editor, so I don't mind the extra work in any scenario.
you should be fine with iso 1600. And the pocket 3 won't be jittery at night because it is stabilizing with the gimbal and not using the digital stabilization like mobile phones. It's really small and discreet. II think it's sounds like a good fit for what you want to do.
Thanks Mark, very interesting comparison, the DJI does a great job. I now mostly use my ZV-E10 with OBS thanks to its HDMI output, it simplifies my workflow. Do you know if the Osmo Pocket 3 can be used easily this way too ? Is there a HDMI output ? Is the USB output good enough ?
Thanks for the channel, I sold an A7iii and bought the creator combo and ended up with cash in my pocket. Now I'm going to sell my gimbal and my Gopro because this thing does it ALL. I'd love to see you chatting with other people on camera in that new studio.
I noticed what looked like frame drops / Choppiness for the DJI when vlogging, where the Sony remained smooth, most noticeable at the train tracks. I know that thing is not overheating in Canada at this time of year :) . is it choppy sometimes? or is it a an artifact of the gimble? excellent video as always

Thanks for the review, I do not have the E10 but the FX30, but like the DJI for its small size. Take it you just bought the camera set, not the creator one. Love the Mic2 included with that creator set, it being able to remotely trigger the camera, and wide angle lens, extended battery and table tripod included for just a few dollars more. Your experience with the DJIs night mode are odd, mine are much much better. Not sure what makes the difference. Especially using the mist filter on the DJI makes for fantastic night shots in cities. I did not expect the DJI to win over your beloved E10, but it finds its place in my gear park. Its smartphone app Mimo is also great, planning to get a smartphone holder for the DJI. Also tested livestreaming to UA-cam, not a perfect workflow getting there, but fun to use. Enjoy the DJI and its active tracking with your kids.
I already ordered the creator pack myself and will send back this basic package. The low light vlog I did was in very dark conditions. A street with barely and light. Regular sixty lights would make it work much better
First of all, I care, second, I'd buy the osmo 3 all day long, the zve10 has some issues like the very slow sensor readout, that alone can make it useless with the wrong light at a closed place or at night, the convenience of having a gimbal on your pocket is amazing, I've been using my osmo 1 since it launched for weddings and it has make me good money, I'll go to the States early next year and I'll get the osmo 3, of course this taking is only for video, for photos I've a good old a7r3, I really wish dji starts making some cameras only, their quality is just amazing, osmo 3 for only $500 can record 4k 120p, Sony zv1 for $700 can only do 4k 30p
Apple log in iPhone 15 pro is better
I'll be comparing it too
I think your wife's hard earned money was well spent LOL I almost always use CB for my Sony footage and I can't stand the process of having to use CB but I love the results, so it's the only way lol My DJI showed up today though, can't wait to get out and try it! Stay safe out there ;)
ya, i just received my osmo pocket 3 two weeks ago. is reall handy easy to use, light weight. especially 4K 120p. slow mo. my zv-e10 with 17-70mm tamron is much heavy together with crane 4 gimbal, heavy to do vlog.
Great review. Like as always. I’ve been looking at that DJI one since it came out. Right now think I’ll just use the funds to buy a lens for my ZV-E10. Iike to see your review of the Sony ZV-1 vs DJI. I have the ZV-1 and like it a lot. That would help me make up my mind.
your comparisons are awesome and was waiting for a long time for this one ❤
Hey Mark, as always I watch all your stuff it’s by far the best camera review channel. I’ve purchased a FX30 and A7iv based on your stuff. What I would love to see is a review of the DJI action 4. I have considered getting one. Would love to see how the log shooting in the action 4 works out.
"Nobody even cares about this channel. I bought both of these things with my wife's hard earned money."😂😂 made me laugh out loud so hard
🤣
Bokeh ?
you will get far, far more on the zv-e10 with a fast lens
@@MarkBennettCameraCrisis Thank you Mark
Thought both looked good @handsome alley, and if you want to walk around in rail-yards the OP3 a better choice if you don’t want to haul around a lot of other gear (gimbal etc)…making you less likely to be candidate for a mugging (there is a reason railroads have their own police force 😊). I did prefer the narrower field of view on little Dougie though. Both got a little too dark when lights lower than 50%, though its hard to beat a 1.4 lens. Great video Mark!
Haven't even watched yet, but gotta give the thumbs up! I appreciate all you do to keep us informed, Mark! Cheers! 😁
See - this is a good person right here, everybody!!
Very handsome comparison. I can see the DJI Osmo P3 would be great for travel vlogs since the location you're filming in would be the "star" of the video. With the deeper focus, the Osmo would have more of the environment in focus, which is perfect for travel videos.
That was way closer than I expected it to be.
yes - the dji is good
I took my old Panasonic DC-GX9 and my DJI OSMO Action 4 with me on my recent 6 weeks in of the Far East. In addition to the aforementioned, I also have my Google Pixel 6 Pro phone with me. Here's the % use of the 3 cameras:
DC-GX9: 90%
Pixel 6 Pro: 9%
Most of the time I just have the Action 4 in my left pocket and my Google Pixel in my right pocket. The Panasonic turned out to be a waste of time. I do quite a bit of walking videos and the Pocket 3 looks like a good addition.
I have been one of the people waiting for this comparison! Thank you so much! I’m a cheap sob when it comes to most everything so I do extensive UA-cam research and your channel is by far the best for cameras. I’ve been dabbling with homesteading content outside and I’ve come to the conclusion the smaller and easier to use dji is the way to go for me. I especially enjoy the tracking feature so I can run around and do stuff with the animals and not have to constantly reposition. If anything the price for all of the zv e10 accessories I’d rather have 2 DJI’s set up tracking me from different perspectives! (I will admit the zv does look better though) Great video and thank you again!
That's a cool idea - two P3's for different angles and tracking on both or just one!
I have the original Pocket and still use it. It is great to be inconspicuous compared to Dougie on a gimbal. If a person just wants something simple DJI is a great choice.
Definitely at night ZV-E10 is a winner. Personally, I prefer ZV-E10 , it gives you flexibility and many possibilites to change the lens as you wish. The only 2 issues with ZV-e10 that it's bulk and stability which I can overcome by using a gimble or catalyst browse. I will definitely go for the ZV-e10.
No, it is not. He is using a very expensive Sony 11mm 1.6 lens. That's cheating. The clear winner is the Osmo Pocket 3. That's why this is one of my favorites channels, but not on my top list.
Thinking about getting the OP3 to shoot automotive B roll like rollers and bringing with me to car meets. Would you recommend getting it or getting a gimbal for my A6400? Mainly just want something fast and easy
My only question here is if anyone uses osmo pocket 3 for studio work/vlogging? If so, how do you like it?
Nice comparison wish kit lens is used vs Osmo P3.
he did in the video.
Doug’s clone is what I still use for my talking head videos. ZVE10 is still great. I have the A7IV for photography and ZVE1 for vlogging, but ZVE10 is perfect in a small studio.
you e got a good setup!!
I have a gimbal I’m getting the Sony it looks better in video quality
Excellent video as always. By the way, I just purchased the ZV-E10 and the Sigma lens you always mention. They better be good, or I'm taking your FX30 :) Hold the emergency. I'm trying to vlog here, hahaha:P
I regret nothing!!
@@MarkBennettCameraCrisis Hey Mark! Do you have any videos showing the best way to use the webcam for the ZV-E10? I'm planning to use it not just for talking head shots but also in front of a computer with a green screen. I would appreciate it if you could help, especially with a Sigma lens Or do I need any other lenses for this purpose? Also FX30 is now 1599$ should I use zv-e10 for now or should I get FX30. Talking head and webcam purpose? Thank you
Id the FX30 great for photography (eg optical viewfinder)?
I bought zve10 a week ago. With tamron 17-70mm it's amazing!
Oh yes, it does the same thing, not really a fan of how the stabilization is working on the DJI, I see some jumping on the subject, is like if the background is lock but the subject moves a lot, is something I was not noticing but now I can't unsee. I was expecting more like the ZV-E10, more stable subject and some movement on the background is acceptable.
Now all i need is the zv e10 now its a win win😅😅😅
Full size camera companies need to start looking at what action camera companies are doing, and implementing the same tech. Full size cameras are still slightly better, but just barely...for now.
Great video!! Could you do a complete review of ZV-E10 vs GH5? Thanks in advance!
That video probably wouldn't be very popular - but I will tell you that the GH5 is great and a professional tool with 10-bit 4.2.2 and two card slots and great stabilization - however, it has terrible autofocus and is not good at all in lowlight. Manually focusing everything is difficult. Now if you had a bunch of micro 4/3 lenses and you liked manually focusing, the GH5 is still a great option. But If you want autofocus, better lowlight and access to Sony's amazing lens system, the ZV-E10 will be the way to go
Really enjoy your videos, hope you get sponsorships so you can do more comparisons =) I'm using a ZV-E10, really want a beginner proof guide to setup cinematic settings with Leeming Luts and the ZV-E10, start to finish without looking through the PDF (no clue yet on Zebras, or what to make of the different exposure settings and pic profiles)
Spending her money! Let's go! 😂
😂😂
op3 color grading is with leeming lut too?
one thing i learned is to not use low light mode on the pocket 3 you can get better footage by going manual in normal mode
otherwise great video
I’ll keep that in mind for the other vids I do on the pocket 👍
Would love to see the ZV go against the Ace Pro!
Im waiting with Dji Omso Action 4 vs ZV-E10 :>>>
ha - I imagine it would be a very similar video
I have both, and you need both 😂
@@JamesFixIt please do make comparisons 😂
Finally ... long hair again ... oh yeah, and a pocket 3 review 🤣 thank you
just too lazy to cut it
I definitely waited for your review. I had the ZV e10 and sold it and not considering getting it back but also was intrigued by the Dji
Let us know what you decide!!
NO ! ONLY SONY FOREVER ! 🤣
Great video Mark. Could you make a comparison between the ZV-E1 with a vlog lens, like the 11mm 1.8 and the dji pocket 3? It would be really interesting to see. Thanks mate
I 've seen most of you excellent and funny videos! I have zve10 for 5 months now with 4 lenses and I get very nice photos! But for handheld video? I find it a big challenge so I am ready to buy the osmo for my motorcycle traveling videos and keep the little workhorse just for photo shooting! Thank you man!!
I think that's a great plan
Perfect Review❤
FYI: I do care about your channel. 🤖
Not helping me decide, dude. You're just making me want to buy them both. 😒😒😒
That what I always do 🤣
Can you make review Panasonic g9 ii vs pocket 3?
interesting how when many people want to show vlogging test they go to where NO one is. because we all know carrying zve10 and a gimbal is horrendous to use in public, too much attention. the dji pocket for the win. if the camera is static mounted, then any camera really is fine. Dji didnt come intime now ive got to sell my zv1. and im sorry but catalyst browse is not realistic for a vlogger who vlogs regularly with lots of clips of different lengths, unless you vlog once a while. zve10 is not a vloggers camera. infact all sony zv cameras arent. they are marketed as one but fail badly.
that little DJI is so inconspicuous!!
which do you think is better for overall content creation . i wanna make UA-cam studio vids , gyming content and use the camera as a web cam too
The ZV-E10
I sold my Osmo3 and bought a ZVe10. And I really regret it😢
they are different - but you will come to love the zv-e10 if you spend some time learning it well
Hi Mark.
What would you think if you started recording a series of episodes on how to choose the best settings for Zve10 to take photos or record videos in various situations? 🤔
I am going to do a ZV-E10 course in the next few weeks!!
@@MarkBennettCameraCrisis what a great news. How I can join?
If I had no experience with cameras/manual settings, the Osmo Pocket 3 is a no-brainer. Would even consider getting one for my kids. The onboard audio was noticeably better. The stabilization is good, but it did have a bit of jitter (not sure if you can ever truly get rid of that).
However, if you do know how to use manual settings on a camera, I feel like even starting with the zv-e10 with kit lens and a small gimbal would be a huge step up. Then buy a good mic (either wireless or on-camera). Just upgrade accordingly.
I have no experience and just bought the Sony zv e10! for Christmas. I think I’m going to trade it in for the Osmo Pocket 3 because I’m planning lots of international trips this year and will be vlogging about it. I hope I’m making the right decision for now, at least.
@@shawnpreston1639 I think for travel, that Osmo would be great. You can always save up and get a larger body camera system down the line. Enjoy your travels!
Can i ask you a question I have a stage show and looking for a camera that I can use to video about two hours and then reselll the video. What do you think would be best?
Great vid as always!
I still wait for pocket 3 vs zve10 + sogma 10-28 f 2.8. thats my biggest mystery what to finally choose Today 😂
Thanks. Ok. Im Gonna buy zv-e10
It's excellent
How do you have 152k likes and only 52k subscriber?!
That’s a weird UA-cam glitch. Comes and goes on everyone’s channel - currently in my stats it says about 200 likes
i have both, i use the osmo p3 often until a month a go the screen issue which some users encountered occurs. i have to return the unit for a repair. Other than that its great as it has 10bit format. its an all around great pocket camera without bringing bulky stuff and bringing extra thing like my zv e10.
glad they’re fixing it for you. I’m so paranoid about the screen flaw!!
The ZV-E10 looks awesome. The DJI Pocket 3 is hard to beat for such a small camera. I can buy the DJI Pocket 3 for $519 at Best Buy or Amazon in Kingsport, Tennessee. I have used the Pocket 2 since it came out in September 2020. I will probably buy the Pocket 3.
Thank you, this was great! Exactly what I needed :D
what a wonderful wife! :) i just got the pocket 3 and also own the zve10 and really loved seeing this comparison
damn that pocket 3 is good for the size and money.
the way i see is the ZV-E10 is an awesome base:
looking for a budget wildlife camera ? get ZV-E10 + good zoom lens
looking for a budget studio camera ? get ZV-E10 + one of many great lenses
looking for a vlogging camera get ZV-E10 + sony 11MM or 16MM + gimbal
looking for a great webcam ? ZV-E10 with kit lens or sigma 16MM + camlink 4K
the ZV-E10 have amazing flexibility to do everything but it will cost u some serious $$ (relative to phone/action cam/pocket 3) to do it and the size too.
the Pocket 3 give up some of that flexibility to give u ton of valve mainly for vlogging, b-roll and even the studio and webcam options are nice.
** i think that park will be ready just in time for your children's childrens :P
Using the Sigma 16mm at 1.4 is not a fair comparison.... great informative and necessary video though!
the Pocket3 is perfect to have. the discreet nature of it. people will not be intimidated by the Pocket3, but when you pull out a camera, irrespective of the size people would no longer be in their natural element. Some locations wold not accept a camera, but would easily allow the Pocket3
Can you get a blurred background with DJI?
not a lot, but if you have enough distance behind you, then it's not bad
@@MarkBennettCameraCrisis Can you demonstrate that in another video?
All of the outdoor shots in the forrest in this video here are with the Pocket 3 - it's about the best you can do for blur. ua-cam.com/video/F0j2I3Jqqmo/v-deo.htmlsi=tAg42AjA4-rwiY3i
@@MarkBennettCameraCrisisDJI support does not even know what Bokeh is.
@@MarkBennettCameraCrisis is this true? This is from DJI support chat on website.
Upon checking, Osmo Pocket 3 features a 1-inch large aperture lens, which gives a shallow depth of field (DOF). When shooting objects at different distances at close range, the bokeh effect is more pronounced.
Love your humour Mark 😊 and thx for this review. Eying the DJI Pocket 3 as well, for the same reasons. But now Insta360 introduced the Ace Pro, which looks very interesting, too...analysis paralysis🤪
Got both. Vlog is best with p3 and zv e10 for talking head. Also sigma 16 1.4 is . Also p3 gets hot after long recordings
Just a side point I have been told that iphone 15 pro max camera is much better than sony zv-e10 kit lens.I can't judge because I am not using either sony zv-e10 nor iphone 15 pro max; Therefore, I wonder if you can make a comparison and guide us which sony zv-e10 lens can outperform the iphone 15 pro max lens. I would like to know before I make a purchase whether to buy the zv-e10 or the iphone 15 pro max as i don't want to spend a fortune on sony zv-e10 lens.
The sony looks so much better but the portability of the DJI will make it a travel companion.
I want to buy 6400 with kit lens and 18-105 mm lens for 450€ is that good or better buy zve10 new?
Thank you
"I bought both of these things with my wife's hard-earned money so..." 😂😂
Sony with Sigma and Gimbal 1295 Euro.
DJI 679 Euro. 😂😂😂
yes, and the zv-e10 can do far more things - like professional photo and video.
@@MarkBennettCameraCrisis The comparison is flawed when a camera is almost twice as expensive. Which child has the money? Which parents should pay for it? The DJI pocket 3 already costs twice as much as the DJI pocket 2. If you compare the ZV with the FX3, the winner is the FX3. And now?
1:03-1:07 cut hands and predmets, lower camera, or another focus objective range.
*ZVe10 belongs to the Colosseum! (The gladiator of camera crisis)😂❤
I am a car videographer with a tight budget trying to get clients and I am leaning more towards the Pocket 3 because when I get the Sony I have to buy lens, gimbal, Sd cars and etc, so my question is can I get clients with the Pocket 3?
I have plenty of Sony cameras for photography. I got the pocket 3 for easy video creation.
DJI Pocket 3 is now the best camera for vlogging especially if you got Creator Combo with the Wireless Mic 2.
It's not ideal ... but it's close to perfection :D.
And I say Normal color profile in Pocket 3 is a way to go ... zero color grading needed ... you can upload straight from the SD card :D.
No shame
not sure I follow
@@MarkBennettCameraCrisisYour wife buys all your toys?
Which one is the best action camera for vlogging, insta360 x3, GoPro12 or Dji action 4
I would lean toward the Action 4 with that bigger sensor than the GoPro and great image quality
@@MarkBennettCameraCrisis thank you so much
Which one is the best action camera for vlogging, insta360 x3, GoPro12 or Dji action 4
The DJI is just so much smoother. And such a joy to use. Sony really dropped the ball here.
Earthquake behind you in Sony
🤣
Once more you manage to answer many questions and that's not a compliment, just a spontaneous statement! Now, some questions, when you have the time to reply. When I travel, I try to be as portable as possible. I use a combination of the Sony A 6400 with the same gimbal you have, or GoPro 10 and my Samsung S22 (I will upgrade to the iPhone for the Log option soon). I am planning to upgrade to the Sony A 6700 very soon and buy the Sigma f 1.4, which I have not done so far because my current camera has no IBIS. For the night video, will I be okay with maybe f2.0 (down from f1.4) and maybe no more than ISO 1.600 indoors? Currently, I use an f1.8 stabilised Sony but at 35 mm, with a Cine profile at -100 detail, as I find that HLG creates artefacts with high ISO. For studio or stock footage work, I prefer the big camera, but I am eying the Pocket 3 for YT videos, day and mostly night ones. I would really like to know if Pocket 3 is not jittery at night like my mobile is for example. I don't want to use the Zhuyin M2S I own with my Sony for a long time at night, plus a portable Pocket 3, is less crowd annoying in public spaces. I am a video editor, so I don't mind the extra work in any scenario.
you should be fine with iso 1600. And the pocket 3 won't be jittery at night because it is stabilizing with the gimbal and not using the digital stabilization like mobile phones. It's really small and discreet. II think it's sounds like a good fit for what you want to do.
perfect timing
I care❤
Love your video as always!! 🔥🔥
Can u make videos to stabilize with Catalys Browse but with Profile Picture on like HLG3 please 🙇🙇🙇
Don't say thaaat, I care with your chanel
🤣
@@MarkBennettCameraCrisis lol 😂
Please do a review for Insta 360 ace pro…. Thanks in advance
Thanks Mark, very interesting comparison, the DJI does a great job. I now mostly use my ZV-E10 with OBS thanks to its HDMI output, it simplifies my workflow. Do you know if the Osmo Pocket 3 can be used easily this way too ? Is there a HDMI output ? Is the USB output good enough ?
No HDMI output but the DJI can be used as a webcam through usb-c, not sure if it'll work with OBS but I believe it should
Hi Mark, what gimbal you recommend for ZV1M2? Thx
Thanks for the channel, I sold an A7iii and bought the creator combo and ended up with cash in my pocket. Now I'm going to sell my gimbal and my Gopro because this thing does it ALL.
I'd love to see you chatting with other people on camera in that new studio.
no one will talk to me 🤣
I noticed what looked like frame drops / Choppiness for the DJI when vlogging, where the Sony remained smooth, most noticeable at the train tracks. I know that thing is not overheating in Canada at this time of year :) . is it choppy sometimes? or is it a an artifact of the gimble? excellent video as always
It's probably the result of the higher shutter speed that was going in the DJI. So a ND filter might help - I'm going to see it it does.
