*I have been using the Sony handle grip with the added plate for quite some time now (amzn.to/3t8oBI7) and wanted to add that it's one of the best adds on for the SONY imo. It has multiple screw holes in the bottom, allowing you to screw in your tripod further from the battery and that way you are able to access the battery + memory card without having to unscrew the tripod. It also has a cold shoe mount on the bottom allowing you to add on even more external accessories. The only downside is that the screw that secures the base plate to the Sony constantly loosens and needs to be retightened.
I really appreciate this review from the perspective of a “basic TH-cam” for lack of a better term. But rather than all of the technical sides. I am debating which camera to get for my channel and I do DIY videos so I love your review. Thank you!
You can plug your zv1 micro usb into a charger like for your phone or computer and film off of that when at your house. You can use a large external battery when in the go (when in a pinch)
Both are good but the Canon has always been better on colors and that beautiful film type look...same is for this one. Sony is really good but is almost too sharp, not as natural and the audio on the Canon is better for on camera mic.
The canon mark ii can have an issue with dropped pixels. You can notice in this video at the bottom because you have a black sweater on. As someone with darker skin I had to return a used one for that issue 🥲
That’s exactly why I traded my canon g7x mark iii in because of the pixel issue. I would be recording and during post I would have a dancing blue dot bouncing around my face especially during low light situations.
Thank you for talking about battery life! I watched several other videos regarding these cameras but they don't really talk about battery life like you did 😀
After getting the Sony Zv-1 I also noticed the battery issue, but unlike Canon (that I also have) you can have the wall charger or an external battery to charge the Sony while filming. The only issue is that if you want to record to the max abilities, like 4k, and 60fps, it might overheat in 15 minutes and turn off itself. But at regular full HD videos, I had no overheating problems, and been able to record for hours, multiple videos, without turning the camera off.
After seeing a few vids on the Sony and reading, thought I'd share with you what I found out re what you mentioned here. Apparently you can change the heat level so it doesn't shut off as soon from overheating. Also, when you plug in the wall charger you must have a battery in the camera; if you then turn on the camera, the wall charger will power the camera and the charging of the battery stops (until you turn off the phone; then it resumes charging the battery). Cheers.
So is 4k the same as 60fps? What do you classify as “Regular full HD videos” as listed in the Video Settings that will help me be able to record for hours? I really want to keep the camera but I just can’t if I can’t record for at least an hour or an hour and a half.
Lol the build in flash on canon is a joke, I would prefer a cold shoe mount than an unusable build in flash...with cold shoe mount you can put microphone, led lights and real flash on top of it
@@sooosuss7154 I actually agree with that ^^^ and the cold shoe mount is so helpful, which the canon lacks. And I would even add that the quality of photos is better on the sony than the canon.
Love it! I think I’ll stick with my canon! I’m just having trouble with the autofocus while Filming because you can hear the camera focusing while editing
I had someone else mention that as well. There are a few videos online that mention clicking the "ring func" button and setting the focus to AFL (auto focus lock) that way it doesn't continually track you but rather locks the focus.
Thank you very much for posting this. I've watched alot of videos comparing these cameras but your calm, concise, and insightful info is most helpful. Best regards! ~David in Oregon.
hi i watch your videos like 5 times minimum to help with views cuz you're the best. I jut have it playing in the bg while doing other things, your voice is so soothing and my hubby is happy cuz he says your look is soothing
Mine arrived today and my next video will be shot with it. I haven't tried the built-in microphone but if anyone wants to know, the Rode Videomic Pro+ works GREAT with this Sony!
Thank you Tash! Only today I was looking at the Sony and Canon at best buy and could not make a decision on which one was better. Listening to your review has help in making a decision. Thank you.
Thank you for the review! I couldn't help noticing that the image overall appears nicer on Canon. Is there special setting you are using or filters? Your face looks so much better with Canon
I just started my TH-cam channel few weeks ago. I'm only using my android phone for filming and editing. I hope someday I get one of this two. My dream camera. btw I like your video. This helps me more motivated. 😊😇❤️
Oh wow! That overbalancing/toppling when the Sony screen is flipped out was a bit of an oversight, wasn't it? Wow. I'm thinking of going for that Canon. I'm currently using a Sony Handycam (FDR AX43) but I'm spending sooooooo much time every day colour correcting the footage which comes out so flat and grey, plus I'm finding it won't focus lock on my face or other specific things in motion unless it's set to auto, but then it washes out the highlights and has a bit of noise/grain on the darker areas of the image. I'm getting a bit frustrated with it even though I've only had it 5 months.
This is just the video I was looking for thanks from the UK, Tash. I tried vlogging with my ZV1 yesterday and it just couldn't get anything in at arm's length! So wondered how a G7X mkii compares... Anyway long way of saying appreciate the video!
Thank you for the review 😊 planning to get the canon since the autofocus is not a big deal for me, also a beginner when it comes to camera in general so I might get overwhelmed with the sony 😅
Although I have always been a fan of Canon, The Sony was hands down the best in image quality here. I reckon its the lens.... That Tessar stuff was always wonderful.
@@johnhanna3945 ahhh was it the volume thing? I can’t remember now. I was watching late at night. I’ve had Sony exclusively until yesterday when I got a Canon (for the colour) and always felt the Sony had excellent audio for inbuilt, as much as it can. Thanks!
@@patriceking9583 without adjusting the sound levels in an editing software program, the canon is "louder". But if you raise the sound levels for the sony, which is easy to do, the sound quality is pretty good for the Sony. but there is def a diff between the two.
Can you turn the autofocus off? For example if i vlog & its people in the video with me I dont want to it to try 2 have to focus on everybody at once so can i turn it off? If that makes sense
Thank you so much for this video! Your video was the only one I loved after watching so many and trying to decide what camera to buy to record my cooking videos. I will definitely be purchasing the Sony ZV-1
Thanks very much. I came here after I saw these two cameras are the same price... This was helpful, and disappointed to hear about the Sony's poor battery, and slightly annoyed I need to buy a charger and more batteries like you have. Oh well... sounds like it's everything I need and more. Thanks! Hi from Canada! (May 2022)
Hi! Do you have a video showing your Canon settings? I actually bought it because of the quality in this video (for my purposes- I don’t do product reviews)
I don’t, sorry. I usually keep my setting on auto and let the camera do it’s thing. I’ll adjust the color temp now and then and exposure, but that’s about it. ISO is usually always on auto for me.
Best review I’ve seen yet on these two. My heart was initially set on the Canon, but now I’m thinking the Sony may be a better fit. I have a small channel where I film budgeting content (pen and paper) and am looking for good focus. I’ve been using my iPhone for years but I’m tired of the blurriness here and there. Which would you suggest for this? Thanks so much!

Hi, I am new to Canon G7X Mark II. However, I am proficient in Sony 100 series and Fujifilm. When I am taking photos with Canon G7X II, the images are not sharp, and the colours are not coming properly. At times in one photo itself, a few places are sharp, and a few places are not.

I’m not too knowledgeable in that area in terms of being able to help but I did want to add a comment to say that I noticed the canon doesn’t take the best photos in comparison to the Sony, or even the newer iPhone models sometimes. I think it’s best for video blogging.
@@TashVitorsky Thank you for the reply. However, I came across many good photos taken with G7X Mark II, even ones using custom film profiles. Yeah nowhere in competition with Sony; however, I hope I deserve it better with G7X II.
I’ve been using both for quite some time now and the Sony is my go to for quality and focus. Sound is very diff between the two so depends on your preference. And the Sony came out with the zv-e10, which is essentially the same as the Zv-1 but you can interchange the lenses 👏🏼
Hi Tash. 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?
Thanks for the review and I'm just wondering if there is really any good valid reason for getting a slightly smaller version of their larger cousins for example the Panasonic gh5 is pretty much the best of vlogin camera you can get for the price and it's only a little bit more expensive is there really a lot of benefit from having the zv1 rather than the gh5 for example?
I’ve never tried the gh5 so I can’t say. I just went with what a few vloggers on TH-cam use and people I know personally. So I guess it was word of the mouth type of thing. And also personal preference.
Thank you so much I been trying to figure out which is the best option for me since my current camera is more of a photography camera than a vlogging type camera and I heard about these two cameras and I been so indecisive of which to get so thank you again for this!!!
@@ROSADIANA-DSB I don't know how many hours. but I would say maybe a few hours. ill film one video thats under an hour and by the second video I have to change the batter.
@@Itskeyaj I know what you mean. The battery life on sony is very short compared to the canon. And if the battery dies while you're recording, you lose the footage :/ I do like the quality and focus of the sony over the canon though. But between the canon II and III, I would go with the III since it has option to add external mic if you ever want to. it doesn't have a mount for the mic, but at least the option to use external mic is there.
Hi Tash ! Wow thank you for your very good review of the Sony ZV-1 vs the Canon G7X 2. You went over the main features of the Sony ZV-1 and quite a few other features and noteworthy reason why you would pick the ZV-1 or the Canon G7X 2. I have just recently bought the Sony ZV-1. You're right about the battery life of the Sony batteries is very poor. Still I like the "showcase" feature (focus on product not you) which is very important and that's the main reason I bought it. My Sony Alpha A7iii kept hunting for focus and it's too big, heavy and bulking for the mounting bracket. Other reasons was its compactness, the bigger 1" image sensor, better optics, mic jack, flip screen, HDMI port (I haven't used it yet), and also I believe it's only one video file not split into multiple files. What are your thoughts on the Canon software? What are your thoughts on Canon's website? Also what are your thoughts on Canon colour? I read Sony has updated their colours. This is a common theme if you've watched a lot of tech videos. They keep talking about fabulous Canon colour science. Having said that Sony highly likely makes Canon, Nikon, and Olympus image sensors. To what degree is difficult to know. They say they design and manufacture (Kawasaki factory)the BSI and other types of sensors for their cameras. Which ones? I don't know. Still to some extent Sony is making a percentage of their sensors. Which models? At what price point? Again difficult to know still it makes me wonder how important colours science is and if that old possibly myth is still relevant or are these opinions just worn out opinions without merit? To me the Canon colours look cooler. I'm not sure that's a good thing or a bad thing. We would really need an unbiased expert to update us on Sony's colour science. I read that Nikon has the best colour science. Is it nonsense now or does this opinion actually true? What are your thoughts on Canon menus compared to Sony? Sony is meant to have complicated non intuitive menu system. I'm tempted to buy the Canon as well as my Sony ZV-1 to compare the different platforms or ecosystems. Anyway, thanks for your no nonsense review. Dec. :-)
@@truthseeker6804 Do you have a scripture that defines Three Entities as Three entities as One in Nature - and a scripture that says One God in Nature - I am assuming you are referring to the Trinity Doctrine - but also Did Abraham and David for example believe in the Trinity Doctrine ? like your user name - Truth seeker
@@jonhermannsson9231 if you've heard about the doctrine you should read about it. There's several websites that explain with several verses. What religion are you?
@@truthseeker6804 was hoping to get the answer from @truth seeker I want to be a christian I am looking for the truth always - what got me thinking is that of course the phrase Trinity or In Nature or the formulation of the Trinity Doctrine are not found in the Bible - but I wondered why Jews before christ came and after heI came and Jews now Do Not believe in the Trinity Doctrine I am assuming you are a JudeaChristian - and I always wonder why God did not reveal the Trinity Doctrine to the Jews before Jesus came - his chosen people at the time - seems very unfair to me that God hid who he was to all those faithful jews of the Old Testament but revolved it supposedly 600 years after Jesus was on the earth but it was around 600 after christ that the Trinity Doctrine was formulated - been doing research in some encyclopedias and they all agree - plato.stanford.edu/entries/trinity/trinity-history.html#DevCre. just one of many that trace the many creeds and the origin -
@@jonhermannsson9231 the doctrine is found in the bible. ive researched this extensively. if youre sincerely looking to learn you would find websites that explain. usually i explain it to people this way. we have the sea. if you fetch a cup of sea water, do we have two seas or one sea? we have one sea, some in your cup and some one the floor. one sea, at two locations ie two entities. The Father, Son and Spirit have one essence. one nature. but theyre three entities at different locations. The Father sends the Son and Spirit, the Spirit is no lesser than the Father, since its the Fathers own spirit and same as the Son. the Son and Spirit have the nature of the Father, but perform different roles. im not JudeanChristian. im a Christian follower of Jesus. you asked about the jews and why they dont believe in Jesus. this is where you and many people get stuffs wrong. answer this, why over centuries the jews are still extremely small in number? simply because most of them became Christians. dont forget jesus first followers were Jews. as time went on they took on the name of Christians, and still were Jews. currently who is a true Jew and who isnt is truely lost. many Jews joined several other religions and some became atheist. the term Jew is not a religion but more like an ethnicity. therefore asking why jews believe or didnt believe in Jesus is a wrong question. you asked why didnt God reveal the trinity to the people before him. the spirit of God has been mentioned throughout the old testament. are you trying to say, the people of the old testament thought the spirit of God is not of the nature of God? this is very easy to understand. your spirit is of you, you and your spirit are one. trinity is to explain it to people. i think people prefer to attack the word trinity instead of understanding the concept. you and your spirit and soul are one. it forms you. however you call it is irrelevant. The Father Son and Spirit are one in nature. however people prefer to call it doesnt change it. back to your question about the old testament, if you read the first chapter of Genesis, God said, Let us create man in our own image. how would you explain that? is God speaking to non creators and telling them let us create? wouldnt that be wrong? and is anyother creation in heaving having the image of God? so God is speaking to his Spirit and Son. because the Spirit and Son have the same nature as the Father. so God created man in his own image. not in the image of the angels. therefore Let us create man in our image simply signifies hes speaking to entities in his own image that can also create. so to sumarize the answer to your question about why the jews of the old testament didnt know trinity, because the term trinity is used to explain. even if the term came during Jesus or after Jesus its irrelevant, as long as its used to explain and make it easier for people to understand. if we can understand that humans have spirit and soul and body, and that makes one human. im not sure why no one would pretend not to understand God the all powerful cant have a spirit and son and all have one nature.

Not sure what you mean by out-focused but focusing on general is much much better on the Sony IMO
great products for the price, thanks for price/quality hunting for everyone
So have the new shoe help out with falling down than on the Sony ? I consider getting it but I also have my cannon please let us know thanks xoxo
I think if you get a heavier tripod, you’ll be fine. The tripod I showed in this video was very lightweight.
I'm thinking about getting this camera to vlog!!!
Can I ask what mic are you using in this video? I notice your sound was different when adding clips from the Sony
Just using the built in mic from the canon :)
@@TashVitorsky it sound really good
Thumbs up and subscribed immediately already because of the first slide!
Df Which is best video quality Canon G7X or Sony zv e10 ?
I would say sony
Good video, you did a very good comparison. Vancouver Island Canada 🇨🇦
Hi Tash. 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?
Are you using any lights with canon in this video?
no. just the cameras.
Good video. Thanks Tash.
Thanks for the review and I'm just wondering if there is really any good valid reason for getting a slightly smaller version of their larger cousins for example the Panasonic gh5 is pretty much the best of vlogin camera you can get for the price and it's only a little bit more expensive is there really a lot of benefit from having the zv1 rather than the gh5 for example?
I’ve never tried the gh5 so I can’t say.
I just went with what a few vloggers on TH-cam use and people I know personally.
So I guess it was word of the mouth type of thing. And also personal preference.
whats for this video! which of the two has the best image stabilization? I do a lot of outside vlogging and I hate it when the camera shakes too much
Get Panasonic then
SONY== A.F SMARTEST sensibility=Awesome for VLOG into reviewing matters.
Canon--- Nice Lense.
Great review !!! I watched and now have made a decision ❤
Hiii where is your tripod from??
It was an Amazon find. amzn.to/3lPHUkY :)
super helpful video!!!
Great comparison😍
Very informative and helpful video. Appreciate it!
I speak spanish, but, which is the best for sony or canon makeup videos?
Canon
Thank you so much I been trying to figure out which is the best option for me since my current camera is more of a photography camera than a vlogging type camera and I heard about these two cameras and I been so indecisive of which to get so thank you again for this!!!
Which one did u end up getting?
@@Xoxochristinen the Sony camera
Thank you very much!
Great video! did you have the link for the lens you bought for the Sony?
Thanks 😊 this is the lens I purchased: amzn.to/3t23J34
Is it raining?
Canon wins on the audio side. The Sony ZV-1 is what Sssniperwolf uses. But in the end I got it because it's like half the price of the Canon.
How long do the batteries last before having to charge?
For which camera?
For Sony it doesn’t last long, maybe one video.
For canon I can film a few videos before I need to recharge.
@@TashVitorsky how many hours for the Sony ? Thanks you
@@ROSADIANA-DSB I don't know how many hours. but I would say maybe a few hours. ill film one video thats under an hour and by the second video I have to change the batter.
@@TashVitorsky thanks! I’m planning to purchase
Hii what about the battery life?
Canon has better battery life than Sony
Canon lasts a few videos for me
Sony lasts one, usually no more
yes, you are easy to watch.
can you do a settings video
what are you filming on
I started on the canon and then inserted a clip using the sony
which do you like the best so far ?
the Sony. it’s much better quality & faster focus. the sound I’m not crazy about but the quality is better than the Canon, esp in low light.
@@TashVitorsky I have the Sony I don’t really like the battery life and it doesn’t record long at all my camera keeps cutting off and I lost footage
@@TashVitorsky you recommend the canon ii or the iii ?
@@Itskeyaj I know what you mean. The battery life on sony is very short compared to the canon. And if the battery dies while you're recording, you lose the footage :/ I do like the quality and focus of the sony over the canon though. But between the canon II and III, I would go with the III since it has option to add external mic if you ever want to. it doesn't have a mount for the mic, but at least the option to use external mic is there.
@@TashVitorsky ok thank you so much
CANON G7X MARk 2 ii
SONY ZV-1 2021 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Hi Tash !
Wow thank you for your very good review of the Sony ZV-1 vs the Canon G7X 2.
You went over the main features of the Sony ZV-1 and quite a few other features and noteworthy reason why you would pick the ZV-1 or the Canon G7X 2.
I have just recently bought the Sony ZV-1.
You're right about the battery life of the Sony batteries is very poor.
Still I like the "showcase" feature (focus on product not you) which is very important and that's the main reason I bought it.
My Sony Alpha A7iii kept hunting for focus and it's too big, heavy and bulking for the mounting bracket.
Other reasons was its compactness, the bigger 1" image sensor, better optics, mic jack, flip screen, HDMI port (I haven't used it yet), and also I believe it's only one video file not split into multiple files.
What are your thoughts on the Canon software?
What are your thoughts on Canon's website?
Also what are your thoughts on Canon colour?
I read Sony has updated their colours.
This is a common theme if you've watched a lot of tech videos.
They keep talking about fabulous Canon colour science.
Having said that Sony highly likely makes Canon, Nikon, and Olympus image sensors.
To what degree is difficult to know.
They say they design and manufacture (Kawasaki factory)the BSI and other types of sensors for their cameras.
Which ones?
I don't know.
Still to some extent Sony is making a percentage of their sensors.
Which models?
At what price point?
Again difficult to know still it makes me wonder how important colours science is and if that old possibly myth is still relevant or are these opinions just worn out opinions without merit?
To me the Canon colours look cooler.
I'm not sure that's a good thing or a bad thing.
We would really need an unbiased expert to update us on Sony's colour science.
I read that Nikon has the best colour science.
Is it nonsense now or does this opinion actually true?
What are your thoughts on Canon menus compared to Sony?
Sony is meant to have complicated non intuitive menu system.
I'm tempted to buy the Canon as well as my Sony ZV-1 to compare the different platforms or ecosystems.
Anyway, thanks for your no nonsense review.
Dec. :-)
Great video! You've got a new subscriber. :-)
focus it's cery quick :)
good review
Please let me know where your beautiful white dresser is from! Thanks so much :-)
I actually sanded and repainted an old dresser we already had and changed out the pulls :)
You're so pretty 😍

good review and comparison
as a side note viewing your intro - Is Jesus the almighty God ?
Father Son and Spirit. Three Entities, one God in nature.
@@truthseeker6804 Do you have a scripture that defines Three Entities as Three entities as One in Nature - and a scripture that says One God in Nature - I am assuming you are referring to the Trinity Doctrine - but also Did Abraham and David for example believe in the Trinity Doctrine ?
like your user name - Truth seeker
@@jonhermannsson9231 if you've heard about the doctrine you should read about it. There's several websites that explain with several verses. What religion are you?
@@truthseeker6804 was hoping to get the answer from @truth seeker I want to be a christian I am looking for the truth always - what got me thinking is that of course the phrase Trinity or In Nature or the formulation of the Trinity Doctrine are not found in the Bible - but I wondered why Jews before christ came and after heI came and Jews now Do Not believe in the Trinity Doctrine
I am assuming you are a JudeaChristian - and I always wonder why God did not reveal the Trinity Doctrine to the Jews before Jesus came - his chosen people at the time - seems very unfair to me that God hid who he was to all those faithful jews of the Old Testament but revolved it supposedly 600 years after Jesus was on the earth
but it was around 600 after christ that the Trinity Doctrine was formulated - been doing research in some encyclopedias and they all agree -
plato.stanford.edu/entries/trinity/trinity-history.html#DevCre. just one of many that trace the many creeds and the origin -
@@jonhermannsson9231 the doctrine is found in the bible. ive researched this extensively. if youre sincerely looking to learn you would find websites that explain.
usually i explain it to people this way. we have the sea. if you fetch a cup of sea water, do we have two seas or one sea? we have one sea, some in your cup and some one the floor. one sea, at two locations ie two entities. The Father, Son and Spirit have one essence. one nature. but theyre three entities at different locations. The Father sends the Son and Spirit, the Spirit is no lesser than the Father, since its the Fathers own spirit and same as the Son. the Son and Spirit have the nature of the Father, but perform different roles.
im not JudeanChristian. im a Christian follower of Jesus.
you asked about the jews and why they dont believe in Jesus. this is where you and many people get stuffs wrong. answer this, why over centuries the jews are still extremely small in number? simply because most of them became Christians. dont forget jesus first followers were Jews. as time went on they took on the name of Christians, and still were Jews. currently who is a true Jew and who isnt is truely lost. many Jews joined several other religions and some became atheist. the term Jew is not a religion but more like an ethnicity. therefore asking why jews believe or didnt believe in Jesus is a wrong question.
you asked why didnt God reveal the trinity to the people before him. the spirit of God has been mentioned throughout the old testament. are you trying to say, the people of the old testament thought the spirit of God is not of the nature of God? this is very easy to understand. your spirit is of you, you and your spirit are one.
trinity is to explain it to people. i think people prefer to attack the word trinity instead of understanding the concept.
you and your spirit and soul are one. it forms you. however you call it is irrelevant. The Father Son and Spirit are one in nature. however people prefer to call it doesnt change it.
back to your question about the old testament, if you read the first chapter of Genesis, God said, Let us create man in our own image. how would you explain that? is God speaking to non creators and telling them let us create? wouldnt that be wrong? and is anyother creation in heaving having the image of God? so God is speaking to his Spirit and Son. because the Spirit and Son have the same nature as the Father. so God created man in his own image. not in the image of the angels. therefore Let us create man in our image simply signifies hes speaking to entities in his own image that can also create.
so to sumarize the answer to your question about why the jews of the old testament didnt know trinity, because the term trinity is used to explain. even if the term came during Jesus or after Jesus its irrelevant, as long as its used to explain and make it easier for people to understand. if we can understand that humans have spirit and soul and body, and that makes one human. im not sure why no one would pretend not to understand God the all powerful cant have a spirit and son and all have one nature.
Talks reeeally fast. All the sentences sound mumbled together. 🥴
Don't cut out the silence parts when you speak. It's pretty annoying.
Hi, I am new to Canon G7X Mark II. However, I am proficient in Sony 100 series and Fujifilm. When I am taking photos with Canon G7X II, the images are not sharp, and the colours are not coming properly. At times in one photo itself, a few places are sharp, and a few places are not. The same goes for colours- some places have proper colours, and some places are too faded.
I tried all manual and automatic modes. Suppose I am doing anything wrong here. I am humbly requesting to help me correct my wrongs.
Or is it because there is something wrong with the lens? I am awaiting your response.
