Little late, but I honestly don't like that Sony didn't opt for a "true" touchscreen LCD. I love the full touch screen capabilites on my Canon M50, however, with the Mark iii, I don't like that it's only a flip up. The side flip+swivel feature is my go to. I love the Sony, but am having lots of issues on whether to pick it up or not.
I was choosing between these two and your video helped me to make a decision. I will buy Sony because: 1) unlimited video time, 2) good built-in mics, 3) side-flip display
I think this is not 1 on 1 review. Sorry but you did more video on the Sony compare to the canon. I didn’t see the canon video recording test. It’s seems you build up the Sony a lot lol. I’m so sorry ✌️
@@azzamalamin8097 yeah but autofocus is crappy, even the mark 2 focuses better... dpreview says you need powerful chargers tho to work, like an imac charger...
I think the two main points are missing here: Auto-Focusing and Image Stabilization. The G7X sucks at focusing but it’s IS is literally unbeatable. I couldn’t find any vlogging camera which comes even close so at the end of the day my conclusion is: I’d rather go for a smooth image with some focusing issues here and there than a shaky image (which for me is like unwatchable). All the other stats are pretty much almost the same. I don’t care for grading, cause I love the canon colors and I also use an external mic no matter what. So for me Canon wins easily.
Great review although I felt a big bias towards ZV1? Guess it is your personal favourite but most of the review was aimed at glorifying ZV1. Would have loved hearing a bit more about how Canon stands out as well. Just a minor feedback when doing a comparison video. Otherwise loved it and super helpful for someone who cant decide, thanks a lot!
I’m sorry to say that this video lacks picture quality (vague). Disturbing background music which makes you hard to understand. Also for non-vloggers the Canon is the better choice. You don’t mention 40 % longer zoomrange of the Canon. It goes optically to 100 mm. I tested it in combination with 2x digital zoom and I was very impressed with the 200 mm focal length. Also the Canon had a USB-C port. This is important because you can connect the camera to a PD powersupply or PD powerbank and always have a full internal battery. No limitation of recording length except the 30 minutes, that most compact cameras have for legal and tax reasons. After 30 minutes you hit the record button and go on. Time lapse can go over one hour easily. The Sony ZV-1 cannot do this, unless you hassle with dummy batteries and spare batteries. The micro-USB on the Sony is a shame. It seems that the whole world is mainly vlogging, but there are other markets too. The Sony is better for vlogging and has a well-thought of range of accessoires for this purpose. But for standard video production and streaming the Canon is the better choice. (my native language is not English).
I love cameras like these for travel photography. For video the Sony one is better, it simply has a better auto-focus by far. For photography, though, I prefer the Canon camera because it has a longer and faster lens (faster at the same focal length for the most part).
Great video - I felt you were a TEEENY bit biased towards the Sony from the beginning but I'll let you off ahaha. Great tips and advice - nicely done. I'll be looking into sony for my next vlogging camera!
I was so excited to get the Canon g7x Mark III and was disappointed with the auto-focus. I saw on YT you could download the software to fix the auto-focus issue, but then after seeing the SONY SV1 soft edit feature, it attracted me to that camera. Happy both have mic jacks and flip out screens.
Software update on G7x M3 makes AF tolerable. I actually like the focus transition. You can’t get the smooth transition when using phase detection. It’s too snappy. If ur not patient enough to focus before you shoot, skip the G7X. Honestly it’s not that much of an issue
I started a fitness channel and I was looking for a new camera because the go pro was not doing me any justice and the 2 I had in mind were exactly these 2 so I definitely needed this video!! Thank you!!
Hello! Thank you so much for this video. I have a Sony a6400 for dance videos. I’m now doing vlogging and that camera isn’t too good for that and it’s too heavy. I need something lightweight for both fitness videos on UA-cam and vlogging on UA-cam. Would you suggest the Sony zv1 for both?
Would you rather have a camera with good auto focus but mediocre stabilisation or a camera with good stabilisation and mediocre auto focus in the context of travel Vlogs/cinematic/flogging? Thanks
@@HunterOBrienTV Had the ZV1 come out before I got my Mark iii, I would already have it! Thanks for this video. I'm sold on the ZV1. Always been a Canon guy like you said, but the options on the Sony just come out on top.
AMAZING VIDEO!!! It was sooo helpful and easy to understand (this is coming from someone that doesn't know anything about cameras lol) Thank you so much, I learned a lot!
My biggest concern is adjusting the lighting. Even with all the equipment I own my lighting always switches in and out with my sony alpha 100. My friends have the canon and say they love how they can adjust the brightness so easily. Does the new Sony have easy adjustments for the lighting?
This is the best review of both cameras I have ever seen. Seriously, great job on this one. Your attention to detail and cutting out the bs has not gone unnoticed.
Not sure if you can help me, I bought the zv1 and my Samsung s20 smartphone is still shooting better video, I’m comparing it on walking videos, Samsung seems smoother compared to the Sony even with the settings on active. Any thoughts?
If one looks mainly for a video plus a little of still photography camera which one would you recommend? The video I'd like to shoot is not necessarily vlogs but travel videos. I am looking for something really small yet going a little beyond what my iPhone can do.
Marcin Palka In honesty, both cameras will do the same job. However, in my experience ...having a flip out screen and the new features of the Sony zv1 are pretty handy (built Nd filter and flip out screen) are worth it. That all said, if it was me. I would ok at the canon m50. It’s in the same price range but it allows you to use mountable lenses. So if you ever wanted to get higher quality lenses, you could. It is also around the same size. That did, I would go with the Sony zv1 for size and convenience or the canon m50 for the upgrade capability
Hunter O'Brien I was actually lucky enough to win the Sony ZV-1 in a photo competition. I wasn’t too sure if it would suit me as I already have an iPhone XR, GoPro 8, Mavic Air 2, and a Canon 6D to take travel videos with. However, the more I see and read about the Sony ZV-1, the more excited I am to get to use it. With the fast f1.8 lens it looks like you can capture a way better low light image than what I can on the iPhone, plus it can capture really nice bokeh shots which gives me the DSLR depth of field look. Add in the compactness, swivel screen, incredible auto focus, digital stabilisation, and the great onboard mics (with deadcat wind filter), and I can see that the Sony will be coming with me on all of my travel adventures and that the Canon 6D will be having a little rest at home for now.
As far as point and shoot cameras go, it is my favorite. But if I was to get any budget camera, I’d get the canon m50… mainly because you can interchange the lenses. :)
I'm deciding between the g7x and canon t6i and I don't know which one to get? the setup for the canon t6i is gonna be :rode mic class 10 sd card ronin or gimble stabilizer 50mm lens for the g7x its only gonna need a gimble or ronin stabilizer because it doesn't require that many attachments what do you think?
@@HunterOBrienTV even over the sony zv1 and g7x? Also my content is gonna be centered around public interviews, pranks, etc so I'm trying to Get a camera that can fulfill those needs?
Do you recommend this video for filming sports , like fitness and dance videos? Can the camera capture fast movements in a high quality? Thank you for the video!
heyo. you certainly can but keep in mind, because it has a fixed lens, you are limited with the focal length (how close you can zoom in). If you want to set up a camera to record a football game or school dance, then yes. If you are trying to make a sports commercial then, I would say you need something more "heavy duty"
Hi Hunter. We have the new IDOLCAM VlogStar V2 shotgun/Lavalier microphone in one, small size, perfect for ZV1, can we send you one for the next mic review you are doing?
If you are trying to document a soccer game for fun and have a memory, then yes, but if you want to document a soccer game in a cinematic way then you would need a camera that can attach a telephoto lens to zoom in and get detailed shots. This isn’t the one
Good question mate. They both will hold up the same for still images. If you are looking to shoot photography specifically, I would suggest you get a camera with an interchangeable lens (like the canon m50)
It does have the WIFI picture but if was to share perspective, if you truely want to get the most out of any camera, having a workflow around uploading your footage via a SD card is how you will get the most out of it. As far as pictures go, it has a fixed lens so if you are interested in getting it for taking pictures. I would say an iPhone is the same. However when it comes to shooting video for UA-cam and that sort of thing, this is the camera I would suggest
Hey dude! Great video! I heard the FOV on the Sony isn't as wide as the Canon. How did you find it? I want to video two subjects walking and speaking to the camera at the same time. Do you think the FOV would be sufficient? Thanks!
Ya dude. It’s widest focal length is 24mm which is pretty wide. Keep in mind it’s a point and shoot camera so the depth of Feeld is not as strong as having a prime lens or higher quality lens ya know?

Hey buddy! Thanks for this. I don’t know much about cameras in general but have heard a lot about focus issue on G7X Mark iii. Shall I go for ZV1 over mark iii? Or any suggestion on same range for blogging.
I think they are both great cameras. But I would go with the Sony for the useful features they added to it. And the microphone and flip screen specifically. 👌🏼
Did you get Sony? I’m thinking about getting my wife the canon mark ii. It’s $499 on amazon now. If you have the Sony how does it compare to canon? My wife would mainly use for photography and some video.
@@Mdogbrown hi! I am still waiting for my order. I think you should get your wife a sony zv-1, even if canon g7x mark ii is on a sale. In my own exp the focus on canon g7x mark ii is terrible.
I want to buy my wife a point and shoot for Christmas that’s better quality than pixel or iPhone. Is the g7x mark ii a good option for $499? It will mainly be used for photography and some video. Is the price jump of $200 is the mark iii or sony worth it?
Honestly mate, I would say it depends on what she wants to do with it. If It is something she is going to use to take pictures of the kids and record the soccer game (being suggestive here) then no, it’s not worth the jump. But if she has an aspiration to start a UA-cam channel, or get into creating videos for social media, then yes. I think it is worth it
Hi, love the video. However, why is it that a lot of people are complaining about the zv-1 angle is not wide enough but canon is also 24mm (which doesn’t mean they both does not have wide angle ?) just a bit confused why people complain about Sony but not the canon ? Thanks in advance
Hey Hey! Good Question. So a lot of Vloggers like the Super wide (16mm) look when vlogging ...that way they can see as much behind them as possible. ...however, if you ask me, I think 24mm is fine as you still can handhold your camera and get a good shot of your face for vlogging.... personal preference! But It works for me. I use a 24-70 for Vlogging on all my camera setups

This felt like more of a Sony ZV-1 review than its comparison with g7x m2
More like a zv1 sales pitch.
For real. I was just looking at a ZV-1 and he doesn’t mention how blurred the still shots are from a distance of just 3m
No mention of the g7x iii has a longer time for 4k or can be charged from a USB c pd charger while running...
@@azzamalamin8097 yeah but autofocus is crappy, even the mark 2 focuses better... dpreview says you need powerful chargers tho to work, like an imac charger...

You are welcome :)
Hey buddy! Thanks for this. I don’t know much about cameras in general but have heard a lot about focus issue on G7X Mark iii. Shall I go for ZV1 over mark iii? Or any suggestion on same range for blogging.
I think they are both great cameras. But I would go with the Sony for the useful features they added to it. And the microphone and flip screen specifically. 👌🏼
Hunter O'Brien Thanks mate. Really appreciate it.
I did love my little G7x!
Twas dope
You always said that canon is better but Sony is your favorite! Didn’t much understood if was a fair review.
Probably selling my canon g7x mark ii and going to get this sony zv-1! Hopefully someone will buy my cam haha
Did you get Sony? I’m thinking about getting my wife the canon mark ii. It’s $499 on amazon now. If you have the Sony how does it compare to canon? My wife would mainly use for photography and some video.
@@Mdogbrown hi! I am still waiting for my order. I think you should get your wife a sony zv-1, even if canon g7x mark ii is on a sale. In my own exp the focus on canon g7x mark ii is terrible.
@@lorpresado88 Focus for video or photography?
@@lorpresado88 Sucks Sony is $300 more than canon 😢
@@Mdogbrown focus for video!
Does the Sony use a skin / smoothing filter like the Canon?
there is different built in profiles ...but I would suggest using a LUT (video filter) when you edit your videos. You have more control that way
I want to buy my wife a point and shoot for Christmas that’s better quality than pixel or iPhone. Is the g7x mark ii a good option for $499? It will mainly be used for photography and some video. Is the price jump of $200 is the mark iii or sony worth it?
Honestly mate, I would say it depends on what she wants to do with it. If It is something she is going to use to take pictures of the kids and record the soccer game (being suggestive here) then no, it’s not worth the jump. But if she has an aspiration to start a UA-cam channel, or get into creating videos for social media, then yes. I think it is worth it
Hi, love the video. However, why is it that a lot of people are complaining about the zv-1 angle is not wide enough but canon is also 24mm (which doesn’t mean they both does not have wide angle ?) just a bit confused why people complain about Sony but not the canon ? Thanks in advance
Hey Hey! Good Question. So a lot of Vloggers like the Super wide (16mm) look when vlogging ...that way they can see as much behind them as possible. ...however, if you ask me, I think 24mm is fine as you still can handhold your camera and get a good shot of your face for vlogging.... personal preference! But It works for me. I use a 24-70 for Vlogging on all my camera setups
