Great content!! We love the Z-EV10 videos. You’re a great educator
Thank you for your kind words!
Oooh loved the cold shoe windmuff. To add another tip. If you don't have a gimbal at the moment and you're not in a bad low light situation. Turn it into HD. 100 fps with a shutter of 1/200 and the footage will be much more stable and doesn't has such a bad rolling shutter. Still not good, but workable with.
Thanks for the tip.
Great video, thanks a lot for sharing it, it's really helping me. I have a question: as far as you know does the adaptor Sony XLRK3M.SYU fit with the ZV-E10? I can't find any really helpful info on the internet. Thanks again.
Fantastic review. Super helpful.
I started following you today watched a bunch of your videos ordered the zv e10, all the items except the gimbal and and 13 mm lens but I will order the lens later. I did order the .09 aperture lens. I already had the Rode mic so excited to use this going vlog with and create cinematic promos for my church so excited! Please keep the videos coming. I have a Nikon dslr are there any adapters I can use that will allow the Nikon lenses to work? I have a 50mm and a 35 mm.
Very handy points..! The only features important to me that are difficult/impossible to fix are no viewfinder and no weather sealing. Thank you..!
One of the biggest problems for me and my ZV-E10 is the undefeatable bass roll-off for the mic input. Essentially, everything below 80hz is rolled off. It also cannot be used as a line-level audio input. There should be an option to enable/disable the roll-off and a way to toggle the mic input from being an amplified microphone input and a line-level input. Nobody seems to mention this in all the reviews I've seen on UA-cam. These issues make using the camera for recording live bands, either from a soundboard or mixer or full bandwidth external microphone, useless. You will need an external audio recorder and sync the audio in post.
Good info, I will have to look into that.
Send this to sony so the next update will include all this mate 👍🏽😉
No one who is recording live bands should be using any mic input for audio lol.
Video review was excellent - Bought and received the camera today with the Smallrig accessories that you mentioned. A lot of thought clearly went into the design of that Cage. Any recommendations regarding flash media to use?
I know, and at such a reasonable price. For SD cards, anything labeled as V30 compatible will do, Sandisk or Samsung are both good. Don’t go for any of the super fast, more expensive cards, the camera doesn’t take advantage of them so it makes no difference.
This is very helpful - thanks, Mark.
Perhaps the best review of this camera on UA-cam. Thanks!
Wow! What kind words, thanks so much.
I bought this camera on the Black Friday deal from Amazon and I absolutely love it. I love almost everything about it and it takes great pictures in low light, about 10 times more light when I took pictures in my room at night. The onlu problem I don't like is that if you shake it a little bit the image looks almost like time-lapse. I believe this is because it's made for taking videos. You have to keep your hands very still and take multiple pictures until you get a stil one, especially in low light. Apart from that I love the aperture and the selfies it takes. Mine comes with lense from Amazon as part of the deal and I believe they are really good. I thought my phone takes good pictures and it really does for a phone, but this camera just takes it to the next level and I love it more and more every day.
Just got this camera and love your videos !
Great to hear!
I use my ZV-E10 with the dji Ronin S3 and it’s just a perfect match especially when I throw in the Sigma 16mm F1.4 . It’s a beauty. No need for counter balancing .
Great to hear!
Now, I’m ready to buy it😊thanks and already subscribed
You will love it.
Great video, thank you. So the Zhiyun Crane M2S Gimbal will work with the VILTROX 13mm F1.4? It will balance and function properly?
Yes, it’s amazing, and must be right on the limit. I use mine with lens hood, lens filter and cage removed, with the small rig wind muff cold shoe on, and it balances.
As usual, great video! But, just curious, how far are you from the camera for shooting this vídeo with the Viltrox 13mm? Greetings from Italy 😊
very close, less than an arms reach.
Can you do a vid on the Nikon Z30? As it's the direct competitor for the ZV-E10 ( and R10 highly possibly)
Hi. You mentioned that you can't use the camera while the camera is charging. Will the dummy battery be useless then?
lmao I didn't realize my cage had a swiss plate built in! I was using another swiss plate on the bottom of the cage, how embarrassing. Thanks for the info!
Followed the Gimbal link in the description and found out that the Zhiyun Crane M2S Gimbal weighs only 549 grams. That is perfect for an already super light weight camera which along with the Tamron 11-20 mm F 2.8 lens weighs only 700 gms. The question here is how well the Gimbal performs and how good is the stabilisation. Can you please make a detailed video on that? Thanks a ton!
It's awesome, you will be very happy.
does 7artisans EF-SE works well with all Canon EF Lens ? or did you find any issue on some ? is there a compatibility list ? there are different adapters and I'm not sure that this is the best
Can u suggest a budget lens for my sony zv e10 for sports vediography
Thanks a lot for this video. The bitrox 13mm f1.4 lens is a bit costly for start up like me.
Kit lens is a good start.
Exellent video! Did you use any kfc variable nd filter or other on Viltrox 13mm? Worrying about vignette, any recommendation would be great. Tnx!!!
Use a large step up ring and a large vnd. I got one for a meike 35mm stepped up from 77mm to 90mm to fit a matte box. Now I just use step up rings for all my lenses so I only need one set of filters. The larger filter reduces vignette.
Which model of the lense adapter do I need? EF-EOS M or R or M2?
I’m an upcoming YT content creator currently using 4k web cams and primarily iPhone 14max pro. Been watching your videos for weeks and your content has been amazing and an immense help. Thankyou. I’m about to press the button on a ZvE-10 with the Viltrox 1.4 lens. My niche and passion is Woodturning on a lathe. Would you have any last minute advice before I launch?
This a nicely made video indeed.. found it brief and very useful and practical!.. Tks Mark, look forward to more videos on hobby photography topics
Thanks for the nice comment.
I have two things I'm trying to fix, maybe you can help:
First, I'm actually using mine for streaming, and one of the 3 cams I have keeps shutting down. I think it's due to overheating, I have all the recommended settings set, but I have to put it on a shelf which may have something to do with it. Are there any accessories that will increase cooling?
Second, every time I shoot, when I turn the cameras on, the zoom has to be reset. Is there a lens that has a manual zoom that would work with the ZV-e10 that will retain its' zoom? That is to say, lens that ignores the zoom control in the camera? Or is there an affordable lens that I could add that's equivalent to the kit lens, but that can have the zoom level stay after the camera is shut off and restarted? Or maybe some other solution? Right now, I'm using the mm reading on the camera which just about works, but it's fiddly because the display and control are hard to use to get to an exact zoom position, and it takes a few tries each time.
Thanks!
The Sony 18-135 would be a great lens option, but it’s not super cheap.
This is one amazing cam for beginners
Will this Canon lens adapter work with all Sony e-mount cameras? I have an older a3000, and for some reason the manufacturer only lists the adapter with a few Sony cameras. I'm guessing that it will work with all Sony APS-C emount cameras, but I thought I'd check. Thank you for your very interesting videos.
I suspect it will, but can't be sure.
Can you do this same video for the canon m50
Some good info. Anyone got a link that works directly to the cold shoe wind muff mentioned. Pref uk. Thanks.
considering buying this camera. will there be an upgraded version coming out soon or should I go ahead and pull the trigger?
I don't expect an update soon.
It’s minute 12:37 for me 😂. I promise not “scrutch” or scratch any of my lenses Mark😂. I’m not a Sony owner yet but, I watch all your stuff. That’s an Easter egg 😊
haha. Thanks! I don't even notice these things when I shooting, or editing!
I would also suggest the Sigma 16mm 1.4, which is less price than the Viltrox 13mm.
I have both, both are great, mostly it comes down to your preferred filed of view. I do find the Viltrox to be a sharper lens overall.
You won't find a better camera at that price! Plus it already competes with cameras that are 1k+ more expensive...
Agree.
For used we can, but for frieaking new and first hand from the store absolutely we can't find camera with that spec at that price!
Canon r50
@@PrinceInShadow not better
@@LateNightChess it has everything + , evf, better lcd screen and 10 bit colors
Mark - the gimbal you recommend - is that with the kit lens or the 13mm Viltrox lens
It will work with both.
Once the mark ii comes out. I’ll be getting this compact camera and use it as my EDC. I’m a Canon Shooter so it will be my first Sony camera.
Which gimbal is that?
Is there a hot shoe adapter for a light and mic attachment? 18:30
8 bit 4:2:0 color sampling ia enough for color grading vs fuji xs-10 ?
Only very modest grading. If you want to shoot log, and and really push it around, you need 10 bit.
Cheapest mirrorlesd camera with HDR bt 2020 .Is this correct ? Any other company has same or minimal better ?
A7iii is older but have way more better low light
Any hack or tip to overcome the lack of EVF ? In outdoor suuny days ....
Nd filter
love my zv-e10 with sigma 30mm f1.4 its too good for starters and amateurs like me.
Yes, that's a super setup!
Hi Mark, For videography , what do you recommend M50 or sony zv e10?
Not sure if it charges but you definitely can use a battery bank and using the camera at the same time in my opinion it’s better
yah, I use my ZV-1 plugged and shoot videos. would think it would be the same here. maybe not.
What is exactly that lense adaptor called ? Model .
The link for the gimbal doesnt work anymore.What kind is it. Great video btw fantastic information
its the zhiyun crane ms2 would recommend getting any small gimbal from zhiyun they are a great brand
Thank you, I fixed it.
I sometimes use the ZV-E10 to take pictures, but the lack of the function “ AEL lock on half-shutter-press” is really pissing me off, what can be done about it? I really want to focus-lock and recompose my shots, rather than letting AI decide what to focus on.
Anybody able to help!!! When I select still mode and take some pics suddenly the camera will jump to movie recording when I press the shutter it’s strange
The screen is not that bright, making it difficult to take pictures midday on a sunny day. Besides that the E10 is fantastic. Originally I bought it for indoor video studio work (9 months ago). The 13mm is stunning. The sigma contemporary full frame series have a wonderful aperture ring, and makes up for the E10’s missing tactile feel.
There's a brightness setting in the menu. you can take it off Auto and brighten it up considerably
Yes, thank you. I did that when I first got the camera. The E10 is by far the best camera I’ve used so far, the images are incredibly sharp. And half the price of similar cameras with EV.
You said you cant use the camera when charging? It can be powered thru usb right
Yes, what I mean was in the way that you would normally use the camera. (ie walking around taking photos or videos).
Hey man! Which camera clicks better photos? Sony ZV E10 or Canon M50 Mark ii?
They’re both good, depends on if you like evf on m50 or better screen on zve10
Photos looks almost identical, I prefer the M50 for the EVF and ergonomics for photography, I think the ZV-E10 is better for video, but they are both good cameras.
M50 for the ergonomics and ease of use (especially if you're an absolute beginner).
ZV-e10 for the incredible choice of affordable high-quality lenses: e.g. the sigma 18-50 f2.8 doesnt exist for ef-m and could be your only lens with this camera. And the sensor has a much better dynamic range (a6400 sensor) than the M50. So, if you prioritise Image Quality and future proofing ZV-e10 all the way! Overall and long term the ZV and E-mount system will cost you a lot less than getting into ef-m in 2022.
(You have only mentioned photos, but the ZV is also a much much much better video camera, so down the line if you start to record little videos, play with slow mo... , you'll be happy you don't have to upgrade)
I just wanna know is it good for a podcast and what’s a good lens
Yes, I like the Viltrox 13mm.
@@markwiemels thank you this help a lot
I need to invest in a filter 100%!
I just picked up the ZV-E10 and one of the first things I've noticed is the noise the kit lens makes when zooming. Internal mic picks it up and it's almost impossible to hear past. Would one of the mics mentioned help with this??
I must admit, I never zoom while shooing video, so I don't know for sure, but it would at least reduce it significantly. The internal mics are getting the direct vibration of the lens.
I thought I'm the only one! I nearly thought my lens has some dirt or broke but glad to know someone has noticed this issue as well. Were you able to find a solution for it? Did the mics help, if you got around to trying them? Thank you and I hope you have a great day!
not fully tbh. for my videos ive been putting music over it so you cant hear the rumble :/
@@aizucream8345
can you tell me why i can't on face eyes priority af?
is there any adapter for fujilens to sony'?
Not that I know of.
Sony needs to add an line level option for their microphone port that will allow us to totally bypass the cheap microphone pre-amp. This will allow us to bake in great audio from an external source.
I got my m50 a year ago.. Is there something to regret? I think of buying crane m3 now..
No, it's a great camera, M3 would be a great choice, but just hang on about 2 weeks. Can't say much, but just wait.
I love this guy
Thanks so much! That’s two now, you and my mother. ;-)
I have Zhongyi turbo lens 2 and unfortunately it does not fit it, its a shame I have to buy a new alternative
Hello.. but how to solve the rolling shutter issue!
Funny you mention that! I found it horrible when I first got the camera, I have since learned to work with it and move the camera in a way that makes it a non-issue. In fact, I had totally forgot about it, but should have covered that in the video! Maybe I will make a video just about that issue and how to work around it.
@@markwiemels Yes please. Thanks in advance!
Pro tip for beginner & cheapskate like me to avoid rolling shutter and stabalize footage learn how to use Catalysts Browse it'd free. Buy cages, which will not only add attachment points but also remove micro gitters with an extra layer of protection and weight to the body.
You failed english class huh
@@RyansReaper I guess you can day that
🤣🤣
I have this camera and got the AI gimble from Hohem, the isteady MT2. With the screen flipped out in selfie mode the gimble freaked out as it was off balance and couldn't right itself. I might only use my 5100 in selfie mode from now on on this gimble.
Great video, all meat
Thanks
Thank you.
Would you buy this camera or the Canon M50?
The Sony. Canon is no longer showing support for the M50.
@@markwiemels what about the R50?
Im planning to get this but most likely will not shoot in 4k anytime soon. Do you have any recommendations on par to this with good 1080p? Thanks!
Sorry, I have not done any real research on the quality of 1080, but I would look at the Fuji X-S10 or Canon EOS RP.
Maybe you can’t change the battery and use the camera but you can use an external power bank to power and use it
Yes! That is a great feature.
So far.. the only thing i have had issue with.. is the lacking of an EVF
You forgot to mention the annoying rotation of the screen display when you rotate it to face you in front.
what about the a6100 ?
What about it?
@@markwiemels is it good?
May be time for me to get a new camera....maybe the zv-e10. I am such a camera noob
It’s hard to beat for the money. Same sensor and image quality as some of Sony’s cameras that cost more than double the price.
@@markwiemels And the rolling shutter wont matter cause my stuffs talking head videos...hmmmm. Another great video Mark!
Thanks for the awesome video!
Now if we only had a small rig EVF
It's the only reason I still haven't bought this camera because apart from that, everything else I can live with.
I've gotten too used to seeing the resolution of my phone screen that I feel like I'll constantly be winging in my head when I'm trying to setup a composition under broad sunlight.
Trying to find what's the best alternative equivalent to the ZV E10 range that has an EVF. Doesn't matter if it isn't a Sony.
If you had any recommendations would super appreciate it :)
Okay, so we start with something unreal that never ever happens 🎉
I have 2 small rig chargers and about 10 batteries. I have no batterie problems at all :-)
Yep, me too. Maybe not 10 batteries, but at least 6.
A battery charger and extra batteries are cheap on Amazon.
Three stops (f/4 to f/1.4) is not 300% more light, it's 2^3 = 8 times more light or a increase of 700%. From f/3.5 to f/1.4 it's 2 and 2/3 stops, 6.25 times more light or a increase of 525%
For me, the biggest disappointment was the 1080p quality.
Yes, it's bad in most of the Sony's. Did you get your channel hacked a little while back? I think the channel name had changed and there was some streaming news type thing on there? or were you just experimenting?
I was hacked, Mark. Then I managed to hack the hackers and stole it back!
Agree that the 1080p is awful 😢
In a6000 it’s beautiful
@@glpro2696 ya, but why the old camera still better in 1080p when another where at zve10... ? Why
Nice marketing scam 3 screen protectors link in description 😂
The screens are fragile it's the number one repair item for most cameras. I have been saved numerous times by them, I'm not sure why you would think this is a marketing scam?
Vs a6600
The only real problem I have with mine is the lack of in-body stabilization (yeah wont bother with the digital crap). Its really hard to get smooth footage even with a gimbal cause all the micro jitters still show really easily
Wrong observation - you can use the camera while simultaneously charging the battery via type c, i wonder if you are even right about the others points you covered
Yes, if you shoot all your videos or photos while plugged into a wall outlet, or using a power bank. The point was, to use the camera, like any normal person would use the camera, you can’t charge your battery and use the camera at the same time. This is why having a charger and spare battery is a much better solution.
@@markwiemels you can get a small powerbank holding mount and can use all that money for buying extra batteries...
Yah this way really the point I was making. That’s a pretty odd and awkward solution, compared to just having a battery charger, like most other cameras. This is only practical if you are building out a cinema rig, but not for normal use.
For the battery, I just carry a powerbank with me ;)
You were wrong. You can use the camera and charge the camera in the same time. Did you even tried it?
Yes, what I was referring to was walking around using the camera. Which you would not be doing with the included charger, while plugged into the wall, I tried to clarify that in my statement, but it my not have been clear. With a charge you can charge the batteries separately, and a still walk around with the camera.
hey i am planning to buy this camera, can you please explain more about charging the camera while being in use?
@@markwiemels you can use the camera while is recording and still charge it via USB, wall plug or battery charger for phone
@01:28 mate, I know what you want to say, but that is so easily misinterpreted.
Can't you just use a usb-c powerbank to charge this camera while it is in use? No need to be stationary with that.
great video brother, I have been thinking about getting this camera for few months now. I make gaming videos tho. do check that out if you'll like horror games. I am gonna use this one for my studio( my room LOL). I think it is gonna be great. Whoever is reading this comment I hope your channel find success; the way you want it of course.✌
🤣 once you find something that helps you achieve what you need, stop buying the latest cameras…🤦🏽♂️
The camera is fine, for $700..The first LIE is the screen garbage, because the screen was turned BACKwards. The screen flips over and I carry my camera in the same bag with my skates and tools. The battery is fine, and I have a spare, and NEVER had to change batteries. COMMON SENSE says that you plan your shooting, and it's not a big deal to stop for 2 minutes and change batteries. Them kit lens is fine and I have shot at night with the kit lens. What bozo expects immaculate night shooting with a $700 camera. Where do you get the PROVEN 'three times' better for this and that from ? If you need that lens cap to stay, you get the accessory with the cord that attaches. Of course if you use a huge lens on a tiny body it will not be balanced..duhhhhhhhh....I have no idea why anyone has trouble holding onto a camera, just like you hold your smartphone. Next I have the white version of the E10 and there are NO marks, and I SIT It on concrete, dropped it on the ground in Texas, and like I said, I shoved it in a backpack with clothes,skates,and toolls ALL the time. Here we go with the Sony menu again, that seems to confuse people Like Tony N. I think a damn 10 year old can master a Sony menu. What is next, people will complain about finding how to put the battery and SD cards in? I thought that anyone with a brain knows that you carry some dedicated lens cleaners, that come in small packets. Call B&H like an adult, or go there, and order/buy some. I shoot handheld and I bought the tripod that is motorized, I bought Rode that comes with the fuzzy thing and it folds.. This is a great camera for under $1000 yet since this is UA-cam there is always going to be some whining .complaining, and misinformation. It is better to talk to road warriors who use these cameras out the box, in real world conditions. Glass???? Sigma makes some great glass or you can use Sony glass. Why would anyone buy a tiny camera, then buy $1000-$3000 more crap,and add to the size/weight of the camera , when you can just go ahead and buy something else..

I think you are asking too much from a 700$ body. , Things you are asking comes in a6600.
For sure! The idea of the video is just to show how to overcome some of these issues, it’s not meant to be a negative view of the camera.
