Getting my ZV-E10 in the mail tomorrow. Excited to start using it after only having my phone for a camera after 7 yrs. Thank you for posting all the content for this camera!
Got this from ULANZI because of the super heavy *weight* and exorbitant *prices* of Sony & Sigma lens. To be honest, I was skeptical it was going to work at all because of the insanely cheap price - but guess what? It works like a charm. It's very well built and the *macro* is a bonus; with no degradation.
I was planning to buy Rokinon AF 12mm f2. But after watching this video , I am getting this one. Thanks Buddy 😄 this is the best budget wide angle lens option for me.
Looks like its a good solution :) i will try also using gimbal without using using steadyshot mode,now giving you idea hahaha :) new vlog coming soon and hope to see you in the comment soon :)
Great video mate, I've been looking for something like this. I'm also a ZV-E10 owner as well. I think shooting in 4k24 or 4k30 with this wide adaptor + catalyst browse @ around a 10-15% crop (obviously depending on footage) with SteadyShot OFF is the best option. I like shooting in 4k24/4k30 as it allows for more screen real estate to crop into in post, Catalyst Browse also seems to significantly reduce the rolling shutter when shooting at 4k on the ZV-E10. Unfortunately, the latter framerate has a small crop in, so I think the Ulanzi adaptor will give that extra field of view which is much needed. What resolution and framerate were you shooting the footage from the camera in? Also, what do you think is the best combo of stabilisation for the camera?
Yo thanks for your comment I hope you are liking the ZV-E10 so far! I think you're right! In my opinion the best stabilization is catalyst browse at around 10-15% or as much as you need to stabilize the footage. It is much much better than something like warp stabilizer or most inbuilt stabilization softwares that I have used with my Sony cameras. I shot all of this test footage in 4k 24fps 👌🏽. Thanks again for being here
I have a question: Compare between the Rokinon 12mm vs the Adapter + Kit lens, both at F3.5 Does the image look different? Like about distortion, image quality, etc.
Rolling Shutter is most definitely a problem with this camera sensor and the rest of the a6x00 line however, it is only an issue when moving around and panning. Really it is going to depend on your use case and what you consider acceptable image quality. Some people won't notice rolling shutter whatsoever, Some people will not care for their use cases and some people can not stand rolling shutter period and I can understand all positions on the subject. My advice is to checkout some video examples of this camera to see if it is acceptable for your use case. I do have a video on catalyst browse that has way more video example of me walking with this camera and different lenses if you want to check it out. I'm curious what your opinion is on the rolling shutter? Personally I think it is acceptable for non-paid work but I personally will be using my FX3 and A7c for all of my paid work. I do plan to use my ZV-E10 for Professional live streaming for clients and possibly some Vertical Content.
does this allow us to use ND filters still? And which do we buy -- WL-3 Wide Angle/Macro Additional Lens + L-Bracket for SONY ZV-E10 or WL-3 Wide Angle/Macro Additional Lens or buy a 40.5 adapter and the ulanzi lens, was a little unclear to me
Yes you can but I would recommend not because you will be dealing with soft corners and suck from the effect of the wide angle adapter. So I would just take it off then get my framing for that shot. 👌🏽
Hey James, Would like to know the filter lens mount size on the outside ? Inside sizes seems to be 52mm Acctually I'm a "James" too XD. Be great to know the size for each mounting part , for middle and outside, I'd like to add filters middle: the macro lens to wide lens contact outside : wide lens to outside contact
Great vid! Can you compare this to the USKEYVISION Wide Angle and Macro Lens for Sony ZV-E10 Camera (WLZ-10)? It's only $40 with 20% off coupon. How many grams does this WL-3 weigh?
I do not have the USKEYVISION adapter to try out but it looks to be the exact same lens adapter. Specs and everything are the same as far as 18mm equivalent and same macro feature. I wouldn't be surprised if it is basically a rebranded Ulanzi. Same price same specs. I see a lot of this on Amazon.
@@greg6509 it does come with front and back lens covers. As far as the weight I would need to find the old gram scale to double check the weight lol but I would definitely say it is around 150 grams just from the feel of it in the hand.
Great video! You saved me a ton of money I never thought of getting the step up right. ! 😃🙌🏼. Would you happen to have the sony 16mm 2.8? I was wondering if you could do a comparison with the sigma 16 1.4 for vlogging. I know it’s like comparing apples to oranges but would like to see the budget option & weight/ size comparison for being out capturing video.
Heyyy that’s what i like to hear 👊🏽! I actually do not have the Sony 16mm personally to try out if I can get my hands on it I will definitely do a comparison but it’s not high on my priority list at the moment. The 16mm from Sony is a decent lens and a very good budget option it’s also super small and pancake style so it’s going to fit in damn near any bag and it’s super compact which is always nice on this size camera. The downsides of the 16 mm from Sony is it has an older auto focus system so the motors are a little slower than a lot of the newer lenses. It also is only an F2.8 so it might not be the best lens for in office or home studio type set ups. I think if you could spare the extra 175 bucks it would be well worth it to go with the Sigma 16mm F1.4. That lens is like the go to lens for Sony crop sensor bodies and I really doubt you would be disappointed with that option. At the end of the day though whatever gets you out shooting go with that don't let a stop of light get you away from the creative process 🤘🏽
@@JamesDBuzzard thank you for taking the time to be so detailed! I’m learning a TON from your videos! I’m concerned with the weight because ku gimbal is a g6 Max .. it’s like the M2 with just slight stronger Motor. I’m afraid that the zv-e10 & the weight if lens will be too heavy for the gimbal. But I did hear about the focus .. was trying to find some budget options to start,
ZV1 Is a beast! I have been shooting with it for over a year and have even used it as a third Angle to mix into wedding films and no one notices the difference. Most definitely checkout my buddy "film alliance" here on YT he has a lot of good ZV-1 content! ZV-1 has HFR, picture profiles, super good AF, product showcase, built in lens, live streaming with no capture card. Honestly I think that is the best option for beginners or someone looking for their first camera with pro capabilities. And it will work on your gimbal 🤓
And my last recommendation lol is for some thing used like an A7ii or used a6400. Sometimes you can pick them up with extra batteries and lenses for really reasonable prices so definitely check out the used market before you jump into something brand new. Also if you buy something used in person you can try it out before you actually take it home which is super beneficial.
The WL-3 uses a 58mm thread and the end of the adapter so you would need a 58mm VND. But if you already have a regular 52mm ND (non variable) then you can put the on before the WL-3 adapter. Don't quote me but I hear if you put a 52mm VND on before the WL-3 the thickness will cause some vignetting in your image. I do not have a 52mm VND to test that though 🧐
@@lewishakiem I ordered my l-bracket directly from Ulanzi and that got to my house pretty quickly maybe like 7-8 days from China to Chicago but I already had the lens from my ZV-1 and got a stepup ring for my ZV-E10👍🏽 I'm sure shipping will be reasonable from Ulanzi But you always could order the WL-1 wide angle adapter from Amazon and a 40.5mm to 52mm step up ring
😬 sadly this is the camera sensors slow read out. All of the Sony crop sensors suffer from this sadly. It was the main reason I sold my a6400 and got the a7c for a bcam for professional work. However this was shot in 4k 24FPS. The exact Sutter setting where at 1/100 to get good exposure however if you crank your shutter rolling shutter will be less noticable. Also for catalyst browse you would normally want your shutter at about 4x your normal shutter speed depending on your frame rate (I didn't do that for this example). But yeah that rolling shutter is crazy noticable at times 🤢
@@JamesDBuzzard ok, maybe the 1080p 30p will be better. Its just, Ive seen many reviews of this camera and none had such a bad jelly rolling shutter while walking or vlogging, something seems off
@@X99Zero nope nothing off here just a real world example of this camera in action. Having the wider FOV also will exaggerate the rolling shutter. Checkout the shot when I sit down on the little bleachers by the tennis courts and watch the tall light in the background. 🧐. Honestly though I don't think most people would notice unless they are into shooting video.
@@JamesDBuzzard did a bit more research, rolling shutter is significantly worse when filming in 4k due to slower sensor readout. In 1080p its quite normal for this type of camera. So for content creators, studio setup, live stream 4k is ok but if you are vlogging and moving a lot don’t use 4k because you will get too much wobble.
I don't believe so It is designed to work with the kit lens but it might work with it. I'm not sure if you would get vignetting or anything and you would need a step up ring for the 16mm lens. I'm not sure what filter size it uses but I believe it is a 67mm. So you would want to use a 67 to 52mm step down ring to try it out. I don't think it would be worth trying because I think the adapter is too small but I'm not going to say no lol.
Technically you can not "get rid of the cropping issue" it has to do with the sensor size. There is no crop in 4k other than the APSC crop factor. You can get a wide angle adapter to compensate for it or a wider lens. Crop factor can be an advantage as well as a disadvantage.
It really depends on what you’re shooting. If you want the widest lens possible under $450 the 12mm F2 from Rokinon or Samyang is a good option the Sigma 16mm 1.4 is another good option but it will be a tighter focal length. 12mm is an 18mm equivalent 16mm is a 24mm equivalent. Sigma is brighter in lowlight but the Rokinon is wider. So you need to ask yourself what am I shooting and how wide of a lens do I need to shoot it and how much light are you typically dealing with? Many people will be perfectly fine with the 16 mm F1.4 but some people will need a wider lens for their set up or home office or studio. Of course I could give you a quick answer and say “yes the Sigma 16 mm is the best lens” or “yes the 12 mm Rokinon is the best lens” but that is not going to give you the answer you need. I hope that makes sense 👊🏽 If you can go to a local camera store and try out different focal lengths don’t worry so much about the brand of lens just try different focal lengths on your camera and then see what will work best for your scenario.
Can this also be used for the a7c because I bought a decent priced a7c off of ebay just recently and was looking into this lens not if it’ll fit on the a7c but over nice informative video
Hey Jose thank you for the comment. I have not tried it in my a7c only because I don't have an adapter for any of my lenses. Now I'm sure it would work if you wanted it to but I think you would get a ton of vignetting on a fullframe. This is more design for smaller lenses / sensors. I would recommend getting a budget wide angle lens to start off like the Rokinon 14mm or 18mm. Rokinon also has lens bundles on their website as well 👌🏽 just stay away from the Tamron 20mm because it has some nasty focus breathing and super warped edges for video
To be honest it will depend on how big your room is. 50mm is one of my favorite for photos but for live streaming you would need some distance between you and the lens so it just depends on your setup. Do you have a kit lens or any lenses yet? Sony does make that 28-60mm compact lens. I haven't tried it but might be a good option to look into. Another option is you can use crop sensor lenses that are a little cheaper in super35 mode.
@@JamesDBuzzard To be more precise I’m a tcg card collector and vendor I’m on whatnot it’s mostly camera facing table at the product being ripped open so no need for those complex lenses I just need a good lens for close up kind of distance also nope I purchased it on eBay only the body and charger,battery and strap no lens kit
@@JamesDBuzzard thnxs my gee you’ve saved me with that 28-60mm compact lens much appreciate it found it on Amazon renewed for $260 something not sure if it’s the one you mention but I already bought it with Sandisk 128gb v30 sd card thankfully the guy I bought the a7c included the small rig cage keep making dope content and keep being blessed
I have 2 and yeah if you got the budget go FF. Even the A7c is a great option if you are trying to stick with Sony. Just don't get the Tamron 20mm F2.8 it is garbage lol. No wide angle will be as bad as that one.
@@JamesDBuzzard wait really why is it so bad? That and the 18mm Rokinon looked interesting. I had the tamron 17-28 briefly and it was so nice. I noticed lots of wide angle FF lenses are cheaper than mft and apsc so it's like all you gotta do is move to FF and then the world of glass changes.
FF does open up a ton of glass options! The Tamron 20mm has really bad warping, bad focus all around, and the focus breathing is almost unusable even for talking head. It is bad. I ordered it when it was released and was surprised to find it sucked that bad all around. Haven't tried the Rokinon 18mm though

How to get rid of the cropping issue in zv e10 while shooting on 4k
Technically you can not "get rid of the cropping issue" it has to do with the sensor size. There is no crop in 4k other than the APSC crop factor. You can get a wide angle adapter to compensate for it or a wider lens. Crop factor can be an advantage as well as a disadvantage.
@@JamesDBuzzard so is sigma 16 mm the best one under 450$ or do you have any suggestions for the best wide lens
It really depends on what you’re shooting. If you want the widest lens possible under $450 the 12mm F2 from Rokinon or Samyang is a good option the Sigma 16mm 1.4 is another good option but it will be a tighter focal length. 12mm is an 18mm equivalent 16mm is a 24mm equivalent. Sigma is brighter in lowlight but the Rokinon is wider.
So you need to ask yourself what am I shooting and how wide of a lens do I need to shoot it and how much light are you typically dealing with?
Many people will be perfectly fine with the 16 mm F1.4 but some people will need a wider lens for their set up or home office or studio.
Of course I could give you a quick answer and say “yes the Sigma 16 mm is the best lens” or “yes the 12 mm Rokinon is the best lens” but that is not going to give you the answer you need. I hope that makes sense 👊🏽
If you can go to a local camera store and try out different focal lengths don’t worry so much about the brand of lens just try different focal lengths on your camera and then see what will work best for your scenario.

Hey Jose thank you for the comment. I have not tried it in my a7c only because I don't have an adapter for any of my lenses. Now I'm sure it would work if you wanted it to but I think you would get a ton of vignetting on a fullframe. This is more design for smaller lenses / sensors. I would recommend getting a budget wide angle lens to start off like the Rokinon 14mm or 18mm. Rokinon also has lens bundles on their website as well 👌🏽 just stay away from the Tamron 20mm because it has some nasty focus breathing and super warped edges for video
@@JamesDBuzzard welp that’s outta my budget range will the Sony fe 50mm 1.8 be decent enough? For 50/50 pics/live stream
To be honest it will depend on how big your room is. 50mm is one of my favorite for photos but for live streaming you would need some distance between you and the lens so it just depends on your setup. Do you have a kit lens or any lenses yet? Sony does make that 28-60mm compact lens. I haven't tried it but might be a good option to look into. Another option is you can use crop sensor lenses that are a little cheaper in super35 mode.
@@JamesDBuzzard To be more precise I’m a tcg card collector and vendor I’m on whatnot it’s mostly camera facing table at the product being ripped open so no need for those complex lenses I just need a good lens for close up kind of distance also nope I purchased it on eBay only the body and charger,battery and strap no lens kit
@@JamesDBuzzard thnxs my gee you’ve saved me with that 28-60mm compact lens much appreciate it found it on Amazon renewed for $260 something not sure if it’s the one you mention but I already bought it with Sandisk 128gb v30 sd card thankfully the guy I bought the a7c included the small rig cage keep making dope content and keep being blessed
Sides are all stretched out it drives me nuts. 😂
🤸 I see you are the first to notice the major flaw of the adapter 🤓
@@JamesDBuzzard i'm going full frame can't take this anymore! no acceptable wide angle solutions!
I have 2 and yeah if you got the budget go FF. Even the A7c is a great option if you are trying to stick with Sony. Just don't get the Tamron 20mm F2.8 it is garbage lol. No wide angle will be as bad as that one.
@@JamesDBuzzard wait really why is it so bad? That and the 18mm Rokinon looked interesting. I had the tamron 17-28 briefly and it was so nice. I noticed lots of wide angle FF lenses are cheaper than mft and apsc so it's like all you gotta do is move to FF and then the world of glass changes.
FF does open up a ton of glass options! The Tamron 20mm has really bad warping, bad focus all around, and the focus breathing is almost unusable even for talking head. It is bad. I ordered it when it was released and was surprised to find it sucked that bad all around. Haven't tried the Rokinon 18mm though
