On paper, Sony’s ZV-E10 II might look like a fairly minor upgrade over the original. However, nearly all of our issues with the ZV-E10 have been addressed with this new model. Is the best choice for a $1,000 camera for content creators? Chris Niccolls and Jordan Drake have done some testing, and have the answers.

There is no excuse for bad screens in 2024. It is time to make it usable in sunlight.
and that said camera comes from SONY, one of the top display manufacturers.
@@OnlyCitrus As far as I know, sony does produce some LCDs but it is not the top one... that would be LG/Samsung.
@@OnlyCitrus good point, brighter screen is so overdue but I guess they can't improve everything at once - keep things less pricey
@@alen2937 Just look up 10,000 nits Sony CES 2018. They do make the best displays on the market, all reference monitors for color work in the high end is filled with Sony mastering displays. The only thing that comes remotely close is things locked away in R&D labs of Dolby, or Flanders. So yes, Sony does make the best displays if we're talking money-is-no-object. Consumer displays of course are currently ruled by LG/Samsung just because they're the only consumer OLED producer of note.
And as for @gamebuster800 There are multiple excuses for unusable screens in sunlight. Battery life, heat, and costs. Overpowering the sun is something dedicated monitoring displays in the field have trouble doing. You're not getting in consumer cameras, especially not on something ~$1000 hybrid camera.
Please think a bit more folks, there are bad choices, there are malicious choices, and there are financial choices. It can be a mix of all three, and not just something done to irk consumers, otherwise there would be at least one company willing to cater to demand (if film still lives, you can believe usable displays during high noon on cameras would be something companies would love to offer if it made sense).
@@OnlyCitrussony displays has been declining for almost half a decade. Along with marketshare, they also reduced rnd. Thanks to chinese display manufacturers
How could they even forget to mention the Fujifilm Xs20 a spectacular hybrid Vlog camera.
6 k open gate ,422 10 bit , inbuilt stabilisation , all the newest film simulations, FLog 2 and the list goes on.
XS20 autofocus is terrible, though. Mine can’t even maintain focus on a static talking head reliably, and if someone moves in a shot forget it, pull out your phone.
@@dmacnet My X-S20 AF is very reliable, better than the EV-10. It's so reliable that I use it on AF in my studio. Something that I've never done with any camera before. Previously they've all been on MF. The X-S20 AF is rock solid. If you're having problems, I'd suggest revisiting how you have set things up.
ive been condidering it for a while but the fact people will have it overheat literally from just going in the menus is what kills it for me completely.
@@vRyanXOXO What? Never heard or experienced such a thing. No credible reviewer has ever reported overheating as a problem, plus we can mount the external fan on it if we wish.
@@photographybypetercharles9939 ive seen it a lot over reddit and its driven many others away too; people also say the fan barely helps but its a bit more hit or miss depending on the person. that being said yeah i havent heard nearly as many complaints on youtube, so that does confuse me a bit.
7:06 You can see that jello wobble from the electronic stabilization, even with the lens offering some stabilization.... not great.
Yeah, very obvious from the poles.
yeah, you need way higher shutter speed for e-stab
It’s a vlogging camera. Doesn’t matter
Just get the S9, best stabilisation in the market
@@michaelbell75 🤣
video quality looks bad

How much did PetaPixel have before they joined?
@@And_Sun_Yk like a thousand or something. When the fellas announced they were going to PetaPixel from DPReview it jumped to 60k overnight.
@@And_Sun_Yk They created the YT channel when they joined
There is some weird just noticeable blurriness in this footage - just not as crisp as other cameras. At first I thought I set my TH-cam playback resolution really low, but no. I'll stick with my Osmo Pocket 3.
it's the active stabilization, they mentioned it in the video if you watched it.
It might be that Jordan used ND filters for “cinematic shutter speeds” (I think he's that type of videographer), but it's a disaster in combination with digital stabilization. This is just a guess though.
@@OldGirlPhotography what am I supposed to do with this deeply personal information that you will be sticking with another product? How does this factor into my daily life 🙂
My thoughts exactly. I kept checking my TH-cam resolution settings.
@@POVwithRC I guess you can ignore it if you choose.
No IBIS is a dealbreaker. In 2024, that's akin to lacking autofocus.
I could really se this as being a helpful small gimbal rig or as a C cam where A and B are an FX3/6 production. You could stick this little guy in places you can't with an FX6. Every camera has it's purpose.
It'd be perfect if you needed something for a tripod!
It's less of an issue if you actually plan your purchase and use stabilized lens with it also.
IBIS lol just hold the camera steady
Agree. Odd choice by Sony given the competition.
No mechanical shutter, No EVF, No IBIS, but $1000 body only. Easy money for Sony selling a bare bones entry level model in 4 digits because all the youtubers will tell you it is the best thing ever made because it is a Sony. I just can't brain the price jumps. A6400 was cheaper when it came out back in 2019. It is okay to omit those hardware from an entry level camera, but only as long the price reflects that.
The inflation adjusted value of $899 from 2019 is about $1104 today. So basically the ZV-E10 II is cheaper than Sony A6400 in 2019.
@@Minsetti Good point. My first new house was $19k.
They are selling 10bit
I hate the word "inflation". Makes you think there is some magical hidden thing that makes the prices high. When it really should just be called corporate greed.
5:05 Right here on the trash. LMAO
I heard that too. 😅
The Lumix S9 was confusing but this one is great with no IBIS? Now that's confusing.

$400 cheaper than a6700, but we're losing IBIS, EVF, mechanical shutter, more stable autofocus and 4K@120.
Honestly not sure if $400 is quite enough to justify all that (for general photography on a budget). For $900 it would be more convincing.
Also - you didn't even cover ports selection? And TALLY LAMP? What happened to you?
Edit: just watched couple of other videos and oh god, this is the most "first quick look" of all first quick looks, I expected more from you.
To anyone interested in MUCH more detail I'd recommend Mark Bennet's comprehensive review, it makes this camera make much more sense. And Gerald's for overheating tests.
maybe the price will drop eventually. honestly i expected this camera to be at 800 or lesser.
Sin contar que la a6700 la podes comprar usada un precio de 1250-1300 in great conditions so it would be 250 more for the real good features. Is a no brainer
@@nomanCyclewala 800 is too low, just look at Panasonic S9 price of about 1500 😧
No IBIS is an instant deal breaker
I think the next great release from camera brands is a camera that doesn't record video neither take pictures 😁. And the reviewers will still call it the best vlogging camera
Yeah, we're slowly moving into a space where reviewers are now admitting that their bills need to be paid, so...we get reviews like this.
And nothing wrong with that, as everyone needs to make a living.
Just pick your 'reviewers' carefully.
@@user-tj8ox8iy8m 99% of TH-cam reviews aren't worth the paper they're printed on. People need to treat them as fun.
Absolute Lumix G100 vibes. No IBIS?!
Exactly my thoughts. G100+ibis when, Panasonic?
You can’t be serious. Camera Conspiracies is gonna rip this to shreds. In 2024 a “vlogging” camera with no IBIS, no mechanical shutter, crop in 4K60, ridiculous crop in software stabilisation, measly 1MP LCD… c’mon guys 😂
If it was a Lumix this camera would be destroyed
yep and the quality looked terrible, this says more about the presenters selling out than it does about the crap camera. so disappointed
@@MagivaIT These "presenters" are a couple of total assholes, every single article for any product ALWAYS has a glowing review -- they are shills.
I have the original EV-10 and the thing is a glorified point & shoot camera. It's OK as long as we don't plan on using it in any lighting situation that would require us to take control. Setting up the MRs for your most often used settings is an excellent idea, but be aware that it saves these settings to the SD card, so if we change cards or format them, bye bye MR settings. Chris and Jordan did not mention if this had been dealt with in the version II camera, so beware.
The camera is designed for phone users looking to step up without having to learn anything about photography/videography. For that market segment it is great. For anyone who knows what they are doing, this camera will drive you nuts, new menu or old.
If you're wondering what happened to mine, I relegated it to a simple job that it doesn't screw up and one that I can set up an MR to manage the job. For anyone who is a real photographer/vidoegrapher looking for a real hybrid camera that can vlog as well, pay the extra and get the Fujifilm X-S20.
The screen not being legible in sunlight is not excusable when we have sub 600 dollar phones with better screens.
Damn, I was still hoping for a mechanical shutter. This would have been a great second body to my a6700. The mech shutter on the first one let it do a lot of cool stuff with flash and etc in such a cheap package
a6100/a6400 are still available (and cheaper)
it is a great second body for video, and you have your a6700 for your photo needs. Unless you're wanting one for a photography assistant?
@@jammaschan yeah, but I do little video and the places I'm mostly working actually kinda need a mechanical shutter. Might as well spend the money on lenses for now and rent a second body when needed
@@MiguelMorenoGP If you do little video then this shouldn't even be in your list.
@@MiguelMorenoGP this is a terrible choice for a photo camera, the older ZVE10 should be a better choice if photos are a priority over video, though obviously you can't really match video.
Am I crazy or does the Pana S9 seem like a better option here? Well it is more expensive.
That's a full frame camera and the whole ecosystem is much more bulkier and expensive than APSC.
And crops at 4k60
@@Minsetti that's an important point about sensor size, big difference
@@Minsetti
Hmm. The ideal vlogging lens for the S9, the Sigma 17mm f/4, is quite light and compact, and adds a much-needed aperture ring. Versus the Sony 11mm f/1.8 the size and weight are a wash. You do get a faster lens with the Sony, but lose stabilization. Soon Panasonic will also release the 18-40mm collapsible zoom, which is going to put a lot of pressure onto these APS vlog setups.
@@JJARCHIEand yet the mark II has a 4k60 crop too 4:22
i dont think sony realises how much difference a good screen can make. One of the main reasons canon cameras “feel” nicer is because their screens make the images look way better
will people also complain about this camera iike the lumix s9? this also did not have a mechanical shutter and a viewfinder.
And the S9 actually has IBIS (Not this wobbly E-stabilization) & is Full Frame.
but there's no clip length restrictions
Yes I will actually
@@funtaril Will have to see how the ZVE 10 II does on overheating.
In reality, judging by the precedessor, i would guess not much difference in record times.
Even though i would say that Lumix shot themselves in the foot publizing recording limits and enforcing them instead of like Sony just ignoring the topic.
@@TDCIYB77 predecessor had quite different stuff inside.
Gerald's tests show that in many environments it can run for much longer than 15 minutes.
No IBIS. huge crop...no EVF....overheats...... Sponsorship must have paid well.
it's 1000$, overheating is reasonable, huge crop in what regard, because 4k60 1.1x crop in this price range is really good...
Bird singing in the background- Yellow Warbler!!
I think realistically, anyone looking into the zv-e10 should be steered towards the fuji x-s10. While the kit lens cost a bit more, it has way more features, besides 4k60
Weird, based on everything you said, and the price, I came away with a completely different conclusion.
idk... now I want a GH7
completely different sensor techs
At twice the price ?
@@JJARCHIECloser to two and half times the price 😎
@@LakeHowellDigitalVideo exactly
Good review. Overall I'm disappointed, because I was expecting it to retain the 4k120 to remain competitive with phones, but have lack of IBIS be the gimp that drives people to the A6700. Between artificially removing the 4k120 and removing the shutter so it's useless as a photo camera...yeah. No. Not for 1k when a used S5II is 1200 and has a shutter.
And especially not with the weight gain. The ZV-E10 was the smallest and lightest APS-C body you could get from Sony since the NEX lineup, with the kit lens it's doable in a pocket. This gained .3" thickness and an ounce of weight. That's a big jump.
I really hope they update the ZV-1 so people with "real" cameras can have something nicer than a phone that's still convenient to carry everywhere, because clearly they don't want the E10 to fill that role anymore.
How is recording in 4k? The ZV-E10 I have will basically overheat after something like 25-30 minutes unless you pop the battery door and use an external power bank.
Yaaaay the camera I've been waiting for 🥰🥰🥰
07:06 Sony, this vide quality is just embarrassing
I can't afford a cinema rig setup and I'm not a fan of merrorless ergonomics for video. So I'll wait for the updated NEX-VG30 or maybe an updated canon xc15 with apsc... 😂 I think I'll be waiting for a while.
Lumis s9: whos laughing now?
This is a lot of marketing spin on something that has no IBIS for videography, no mechanical shutter for photography, comes with a mediocre screen, has no real HDMI, still has no front dial, has a weird zoom toggle that nobody asked for and overall isn't what actual creators asked for. Why?
Cause it costs a thousand dollars..? Of course it's going to be a stripped down version of the FX30
@@pzark3638that isn’t a valid justification
They don't even put review in the title so it's just some promotional video and who know how much they received for posting this video. For the price proper vlogging tool like pocket 3 is better and your phone can took the same bad still image😂
@@sentisenti3229 that’s cause it’s pre production and always say they don’t call that a review because they aren’t able to fully test these cameras on the press trips
Just buy an A7RV or whichever camera has all you want. This is for people that don't need or can't afford all that.
No ibis what the…. Like removing the mech shutter is bad enough lol
My daughter moved to Calgary last year and doesn't send me many photos of her new locality. So the Petapixel review videos shot in and around Calgary keep me up to date. Thanks for that!
One thing to do with your old ZV-E 10 is to give it to your kids or grandkids. Get them started on photography with one of the cutest cameras ever made.
No IBIS = Game Over !
This camera is definition of market segmentation and cripple hammer. Sony, tell us - how many of these cameras do you sell and how much do you earn on each one?
I think the xs20 is better camera for the money
I managed to find one new open box on FB Marketplace for $1000. That's the same price this new ZV-E10 II is selling for.
The XS20 is $300 more expensive….
@@kazeshiii it's kinda pointless to compare new camera prices to second hand seller prices though? Most of the second hand XS20s where I'm at are still well above that $1000 mark, meanwhile I saw a fully functioning xt3 selling for $400. It's just time and luck for getting great deals in the second hand market, you can't compare it to MSRP
@@michaelbell75 yes but worth every penny
Yes with evf ibis for both video and photo better rolling shutter and better autofocus and way better color profiles
The next APS-C camera from Sony really needs dual card slots. It's understandable in a camera like this, but not in the a6700.
Quite possible, they already caved on the front dial! 🤣
Why would you want that on a crop sensor camera? Redundant cards are for professional use, and for professional use you should use full frame anyway.
@@youknowwho9247 Nah, redundancy is great for casual photographers and any format. Also 2 card slots just lets you customize how to save your stuff, and it lets you get more memory without buying more expensive larger capacity card.
@@youknowwho9247professional users also use apsc sensor. Welcome to the tercer mundo
@@youknowwho9247Depends on what you call professional because plenty of large productions have used APS-C. Especially with studio work where they can control lighting so it's not even a concern
If fuji were to decrease their xt50 price to $1100. It'll kill this thing completely
Too bad no Hi-Res (6K+) or even 4K Open Gate recording in any Sony consumer/prosumer-level (-priced) cameras... Sony are losing a LOT of customers for Panasonic and Fujifilm because of their reluctance to add at least Open Gate.
Years ago, when my son needed a good camera for school and personal video projects and I was in between DSLR cameras, waiting for an affordable 4K/60p solution, we settled for the then newly released A6500. I knew its limits and that I wouldn’t get happy with it, but I didn’t know how bad this thing is with recording video longer than 20 minutes. Practically absolutely useless for me.
By now, I’ve been able to make myself very happy with an A7M4 and an A7R5 while the A6500 gets zero use.
I am wondering now if it would be a very meaningful upgrade (especially in the video department) to sell the A6500 and get the ZV-E10 II as a dedicated backup camera and third option for tripod based video recordings of events? Is there anything at all that I would be missing from the A6500?
Thanks for the first look video, very well done as always, guys!!
This new camera brings great savings; don't buy it and save 1,000 USD. After Fuji X1000VI, Leica D-lux and Lumix S9, we thought that the lack of innovative ideas was the norm, but we were wrong. Now Sony raised the bar to its limit by not listening to the user needs and bringing a "new" camera without mechanical shutter, dark display, no IBIS, no 4k120 and no EVF. And the cherry on the top: more expensive than its predecessor and with weak electronic stabilizing solution that demands high cropping. Where can I buy one?
Sony A6100 user here. I see no major reason to upgrade other than 10 bit and Cinetone. I like having an EVF for video even though the 6100's EVF isn't a great example. I was waiting to see what this camera was like, but I think I'll keep the 6100 for the great work horse it is and pick up an old BlackMagic OG to scratch that colour grading itch.
Thanks to Chris and Jordan for the first look though, I've been curious about this expected release for ages now.
The ZV line has never been really an upgrade for the a6000s line, generally within the a6000 line is the next upgrade, like an a6700 which is a great camera with all the features
Sony really likes to keep fairly basic spec upgrades back to bring out later. They did it with the crappy evf in the original A7 c, I sent mine back, annoying.
I vlog with a panasonic ag-cx10. These creator cameras are garbage. A camcorder is more convenient.
Is the OSS on the lens working together with the Active stabilization? I though you could only use one of them, but not combined
What's with the "new" plastic lens mount Sony?! This is an alarming step backwards. I thought this died a decade ago with cheap DSLRs.
This review falls into the category of: Sometimes we watch Chris & Jordan for Chris & Jordan and not for the camera.
After all, everyone has bills to pay, so I respect that.
Regardless, I ain't going anywhere, and will still tune into Petapixel and Chris & Jordan.
And I didn't even realise I wasn't subbed, so here's a sub and a like 🙂
Thank you to Petapixel and Chris & Jordan! Keep doing what you are doing.
from the footage u can still tell the stablization sucks , even the lens has OIS
I thought Chris did a great job doing the videos of Jordan…it must be a pretty good video camera!! OK, don’t walk and talk, but unless an action camera I say that almost all the time.
Does it have a shutter ?
no, as mentioned in the video
@@gamebuster800 BIG YIKES! 😢
@@gamebuster800 tbh I didn't realize they mentioned it lol
Perfect for families who need a compact video camera for getting memories of their kids, not so much content creators. I'd also say it makes a super nice web cam. Good Job Sony!
I just noticed the comment section is so accommodating with Sony overheating but smashed the Lumix S9 for placing recording limits to prevent overheating. Hilarious. Go from ZV-E10 M2 to the FX30 for $800 more for no overheating or go from the S9 to the S5 II for $200 more for no overheating. We really are tribal Camera snobs. 😀
It's shills and wannabe shills. Like the comments section in DJI videos. Just trying to be noticed.
Cherished memory, regardless of a camera. Yet it did a great job. They now became a gentlemen and a young lady. Good to see the old days, and thank you for putting these together!
Is it possible to use background defocus to take photos on the ZV E10 II?
The fact that an iPhone 4 had a better resolution LCD with better viewing angles and sunlight readability FOURTEEN YEARS AGO than modern cameras that cost 9x as much (looking at you, A1...), is deplorable.
MANUFACTURERS: GIVE US 2000 NIT OLED QHD PANELS LIKE ON PHONES, THAT USE THE WHOLE AREA OF THE FLIP OUT!
there is some kind of correction that created a weird blurryness between the frames. it looks really weird. its mostly on walking shots..

Really? I'm a bit confused how you could reach that conclusion yet pan the LUMIX S9 !?
I’ve asked myself the same question... How is this considered a good recommendation when the S9 is odd and confusing? The screen quality is poor, there’s no EVF, no mechanical shutter, a smaller sensor, and no IBIS. On top of that, Sony has an awful track record with firmware updates.This camera leaves you no room for growth...
If I had chosen this camera instead of the S9 based on a review, I'd be pissed off. 😂
@@lfcruzsierra Totally agree! 👍
How does it compare this the gh7?
not bad. IBIS would've been a huge upgrade though

0:01 I heard Christicles the three times I replayed it to make sure I heard right!😆
No Mech Shutter
No 4k 120
No IBIS
ALL FOR THE Affordable Price of £1,000 - This is atrociously bad of a deal.
I feel like they made this camera to just push everyone towards the a6700 instead due to its illogical self imposed limitations
But spending £1k for an APSC body when you can easily get an FF for just a little bit more.
Awesome stuff guys! Great video.
What’s with all the complaints in the comments? The a6700 is only $400 more… why complain about this cameras lack of ibis, mechanical shutter, 4k 120 etc. when there’s literally an option from Sony for not too much of a premium that fulfills those needs?
Because it's a vlogging Camera in 2024 that has less features then cameras that came out many years ago?
IBIS is kinda an important thing for vlogging.
@@TheUnknownVideographerso get an a6700??? It literally has all the features you’re looking for. What’s the point of being stuck on what it’s marketed as when you can just look at what it is? People use cameras outside of their marketing all the time. If you want a Zv-e10 II with any combination of ibis, a mechanical shutter, a viewfinder, 4k 120, etc. you literally have an option that fulfills those desires. The Zv-e10 ii is not the camera for you, so stop expecting it to be something it isn’t and literally pick the option in front of you that has what you want.

Very quick overheating and short record tike in high framerates

There is nothing budget about 1100 euro pricetag, perhaps if you come down from those ivory towers you would realise if you wanted a "budget" vlogging camera, we are talking now more in the 500 to 1000 euro price range something like a Canon R10 or a GoPro.

im not sure to wait for this or get the zv- 1 ii mainly buying it to record concerts and if the size is much of a difference
those two are very different cameras
Zv1-ii isn’t gonna do it for you in low light
isn´t the fuji x-s10 priced similar with much more features like ibis/evf/mech shutter?
BUT DOES IT OVERHEAT?!!
I've been a bit of a eager baby for the next gen ten. The first absolutely had it's place but with some serious niggles and flaws. I hope Sony has done better with this one. The pool of parts and technologies they have to draw from for this version is a lot better than the pool they used to make the first one.
Also sort of keen to see how the second gen kit performs. OSS in lens has largely been abandoned and I don't like that at all.
The Video is great as always. but this Sony's footage is so ugly .. what went wrong here ?
The original PZ 16-50mm has a linear motor.
Nope, it uses a stepped motor.
Anyone gonna mention that it’s almost a 1” sensor with the active stabilization on?
You lost me at no IBIS....
Why Sony still cant provide 25/30p XAVC HS is behind crazy
In a $1000 vlogging camera?
Or even Open Gate. The Fuji XS-20 (not much more expensive) does have it.
S9's fanboys below forgot the lack of hotshoe (not to mention MI connection for wireless mic), headphone jack, uncrop 60p, AA filter, all-intra format, 14bit raw photos for $500 less. And the pancake kit sony comes with has at least AF in comparison. This has at least 3 ways of stabilizing the footages before considering a cheap gimbal with the saved money(built-in digital, Gyroflow, catalyst browse).
It's a new 26MP sensor, and I'm still stuck with 24MP. Need to upgrade asap 😂
What the hell did they do to autofocus? Did they cripple it to sell the AI chip models? The original ZV-E10 and even ZV-1 would never pulse like that.
Also, I hope the screen isn't identical to the original ZV-E10 because that one was utter garbage
Why not just save a bit more and get the A6700? Seems like a lot of compromises here.
Vlogger camera to be great without IBIS??? What world do we live in????
Hi, what is IBIS?
This or Canom R8? First time buyer looking for hybrid with 80% video shoots, for youtube long format video and short bootstraped movie creations. But a single video clip duration should not be greater than 15 mins, looking for a long term option which I can ehnace with lens and toolsets later on. 99% videos will be shot indoors under controlled lightings.
Since Fujifilm left entry level class, and this is what happened...
Other brands must do something and make entry level cameras great again
Is it weather sealed?
unlikely...
Sony needs to replace the FF kit lens as well
Who actually uses that thing?
isn't 28-60mm f4-5.6 new? previous 28-70mm ff kit-lens was giant in comparison
Would fuji even revive lineup for A7 ? Strange new rumour
I will stay with the Lumix S9, as my Dad Camera!
Beyond useless. Any cheap mid range old phone is better quality at better stabilisation
QQQ: Someone pls explain the need of mechanical shutter in general (not this camera). Z8/9 shows they're not needed for flash.
Z8/z9 does 1/200 and more with their super stacked fancy sensor
Fuji does 1/100 in their cheaper (2,5 k usd ) stacked sensor
Non stacked sensor goes to 1/60 .
You need 1/100 to freeze people walking , 1/1000-2000 for sports and birds. Go figure
Incresing the SS past 1/60 only affects exposure but not how fast the sensor reads
@@JJARCHIE Thanks. I was just wondering why people are complaining that a video centric camera doesn't have a mechanical shutter, i.e., would one be doing flash photography with this camera?
@@DixonLu yep , me too
Waiting for Nikon Z30/Z50 II with better AF
FYI: this camera records gyroscopic data so u can stabilize your footages with gyroflow which is a free, open-sourced software
yeah, that's not always a good alternative...you need to mess with the shutter for optimal use and some apps take a while to process it.
@@lfcruzsierra this camera literally has no ibis unit inside theres no alternative you might as well use things that the manufacturer provided for its consumers. Also gyroflow is not some random “app” its better than sony’s own software for its gyro stabilization. If your computer can handle slog 3 then you can use gyroflow with no issue
gyro stab (at least in catalyst) means no proper shutter speed. on 24fps u'd have to use maybe 250+ for shutter (instead of 48), which will ruin the footage (if u care for the cinematic feel).
@@skepsys I can confirm. Gyro is not an acceptable alternative if you want to retain control of your image. The Sony digital stabilization is decent but why would you compromise with so much cropping instead of paying a few bucks and getting a camera with IBIS.
@@skepsys that is why i mentioned gyroflow which is way better than catalyst imo. As long as theres no crazy movement u can get away with 48 shutter speed. If your shoot requires a lot of camera movement u can increase fps and shutter speed but then i wouldnt do that with this camera
This camera is 1000 dollars in the united states it is 1399 without the lens in Canada, may be better to just buy the a 6700 for the difference in price and what you get
It's weird, it's good but bad at the same time, for video only it's amazing, but not having a mechanical shutter feels like a letdown, not sure about it Sony's cripple hammer has striken again, the first victim was a7iv with that horrible 4k 60p crop
No IBIS in 2024? Sorry, but pass
Tbh to my eye the ZV-E10II video looks not much better than the video my A6300 records.
$1,500? No way, without an EVF and this crappy low res screen only.
