I’m the guy that came up and said hi to you guys, I was so nervous lol 😅
I was the guy too!
Some
Wait! That was me!
Stop Lying guys, that was me obviously
😂😂😂
Thanks Potato! The Sony ZV-1 has been my main camera since July. I shoot all my TH-cam videos on the camera. Before I used a Canon EOS-R, but the size and weight of the Sony ZV-1 means I can carry it in my everyday backpack. So it's always with me. I use the Rode Wireless Go for audio. So overall, it's a very small and powerful package.
I love the size, the easy of use, and the bokeh button that works like magic. There are four things I hope Sony will fix in version 2.0: 1) A wider-angle lens 2) Better battery life 3) Move the tripod socket so you can access the battery, and 4) It's 2020, we need USB-C.
Especially the usb c... 💯💯
I Just Purchased the Sony ZV-1 and than I saw This video and I added the Wide Angle Adapter 2 days Later and now its in route . Thanks Jet and I can also I love the Beginners Course it really helped during my hiatus of 2020 to sharpen up my skills and reinforced the basics . Now Im going into 2021 with a Sharp Sony Camera and New Understanding for Videography
I love how Ulanzi creates solutions to products by asking their consumers what they want. That mirror they made for the Sony a6300/a6500/a7iii is amazing and I’d buy this adapter in a heartbeat if I had a ZV1. Great review, agree would still want it wider 🙏
Should I get a mirror for my a7iii?
@@makestuffmike yes, i find two version: www.amazon.com/dp/B083JWZ4FQ and www.amazon.com/dp/B08H859MC5 ; contact me at lrboommy@gmail.com and i would honor one free for you to test and review.
@@makestuffmike Yes, I was agonizing the prospect of upgrading to an a6600 just for a flippy out screen when i haven't really invested enough time to master the a6500. Saw the Ulanzi/UUrig mirror which has 3 cold shoe mounts for lights and mic's. Permanently in my bag now. The irony of the solution is not lost...a mirror for a mirrorless camera lol
$39 Canadian Dollars off Amazon and keeping me sweet. Hope it works for you sir!
@@stateofview “A mirror for a mirrorless camera!” What a poet!
1:31 “We’re smart people right? I finished highschool.”
*knocks camera into the water*
I was waiting for that to happen 🤣
I was expecting that too 😁
Oh man. I went to that Sunken City spot. Something like 40 cops rolled up and rounded up all the people there. We all got trespassing tickets. They do it on the regular apparently. It's literally a cash cow for their local police department. Ticket ended up being something like $1600+ for me.
Super messed up because it's a famous tourist spot and public land to boot. They just use it to shake down unbeknownst people for money. It's like a speed trap in a small country town, but with worse consequences.
@@nonsequitor lol its the governor or mayor who's enforcing it man. Cops took to uphold the law and abide what their local leaders want
What are ‘unbeknownst people’? 🤣
@@agentred8732 "unbeknownst" means 'without knowledge of' and in this case I'm using it as an adjective to describe 'people'. As in these are people who are without knowledge of the situation I described above before they get shook down by the police for being on public land.
Hope that clarifies.
Putting the ZV1 onto a gimbal improves the stabilization and can push the camera a little further out helping the width issue. Even using a small selfie stick is beneficial. This wide conversion lens is good. There are lots of ways of getting around the wide angle issue.
Thanks! I totally bought the ZV-1 off of your review and haven’t been disappointed yet! Loving the VLOG Channel.
Every friend of Gene is a star in his videos. What a swell guy!
Def gonna pick one of these up. The ZV-1 has become my main camera for streaming and this will def make the shoot easier to work with and open some other options.
If Sony makes a ZV-1 with a 16-70 equivalent focal range and the Z battery it will be the best-selling camera of all time!! I have an A7C setup and I love it but find that I'm constantly craving the simplicity of a setup like this for all of the casual shooting I do. Thanks for this great video, I love seeing how much fun your team has together!
I'm preparing a review for a Z-V1 sent to me by Sony and I really like the fast AF, image quality and flippy screen. But the big cons for me are the touchscreen that can't control anything apart from the tracking AF, the messy menus and the tripod thread that blocks access to the battery and SD. I think that the next version of this camera will be fantastic if they address these problems.
Ulanzi has a $50 cage which allows you to access the battery and SD, I bought it and it's really good
You got me! I was like “There’s no way he’s gonna throw that glass bottle out there...”
The wide angle is great, also considering it provides some protection to the actual internal lens, always a pity with compact cameras to get a huge scratch or straight up crack the internal lens, when it can't be changed.
RIght when my environmental senses started tingling... sweat on my forehead, elevated heart rate, "Is he really gonna do that? Another bottle in the ocean? I really liked his videos, no please don't..." oooh he is nice guy :D Thanks!
"We are smart people right, I finished high school" and the trespassing scene just lmao 🤣🤣🤣
man the FOV for the zv1 is literally the ONLY issue and it's really not even an issue per se...it could be wider but still not a deal breaker for me as I still prefer the discrete form factor of the zv over the monster of a set up of my a7 with the 16-35 g master lol
I lied...other issue is battery life. lol
Oh hi there my good sir, love yo breakdowns
agreed!
Yea, it's so close to being the perfect compact camera~ On the other hand, those batteries are dirt cheap and you can just arm yourself with an entire ammo belt full of 'em. 😁
r/ZV_1 is a great resource
True true
I just got this set up. I love it. Its the best combo ever.
So honestly, I am a huge fan of the channel and you guys, and when you went to throw the bottle my heart sunk, then you stopped and I was so happy. UGH.
Man, that's a sweet camera! Love the form factor.
Thanks for all the content you create! Decided to make a youtube channel this year because of inspiration from creators like you! Appreciate it! 🙏🏽
Instantly makes this THE beginner's vlogging camera to recommend..
Kinda. I think I will get the Osmo P2, unless a good wide angle comes out
But it doesn't has a type c port :(
Bought my ZV-1 about a week ago. It's amazing for what I do, but I do wish it was wider. Truth is I need small camera to take with me on my jobs for content. I shoot B Roll with it and also use my Google Pixel 2 too for other shots. Still... I do want a wider lens. Let's see if the Ulanzi goes on sale soon.
I just got the Ulanzi a week ago and it definitely helps. It's a must if you own a zv1.
when you joked about throwing the bottle, i love the humor!
Very cool. Been thinking about getting the ZV-1 and with the addition of the wide angle.... gonna order!
"Of course. I'm Sam." Sam ROCKS!
There is now a 0.43x and a 0.4x lens on amazon for the ZV-1, it should be (much) wider, though there is no review yet : it would be 10mm equivalent roughly !
3:45 "This feels really good in my hand... This feels tighter..." Okay....
This video is about a year ago and I am still looking for a small vlogging camera
and this ZV-1 still what most people want. That means I have no other choice
but to buy it. Stabilization, night videos, microphone kind of decent, fast auto focus,
light weight,. For long range shots I will use my old Panasonic GH5.
Gimble for the ZV-1 I have a ZHIYUN CRANE M2 But is not strong enough to handle
the time I will be hiking, so I will have to buy a stronger gimble.
@mipmipmipmipmip supply issue shouldn't push you into the wrong decision
This is the only reason I haven't bought a point and shoot, they are never wide enough. I have the a5000 with the 10-18 and the a7iii with tamron 17-28
But why buy a point and shoot if you have a a7iii
@@divil2273 I had to use the a5000 for a second cam instead of using a point and shoot for a second cam
Great to watch your review here. I just got my ZV-1 and this lens is really what I need right now!
Keep in mind that this thing can damage the lens of this camera :). The motor is not that strong and the spare part comes with the sensor so... buy new camera if you damage it and the service decide it is your fault.
I think that the best solution will be a small cage with bayonet and there are a lot of cheap wide convertors from brands like Sony, Olympus, Raynox, ... that can go even wider and probably with bette quality. I like the 1" sensor line of cameras especially for family stuff.
I'd accept a 18-40mm focal length to keep the wide end @F1.8. I mean they are selling this as a vlogging lens. It is going to spend majority of its time at that end.
Fun review as always. 🙌
Wauuu. Good fun job man!🐟
I've started collecting and becoming a photographer all thanks to these videos
2:00 - "Round 2 was much much better"
Thats what she said
I would put an extender on the stick :)
Finally lived the moment twice!
I just started vlogging last week using my phone camera. Now planning to buy this, thank you for the info, especially where to get the wide lens
Would love to see you vlog with the Sony camcorders like the AX53! It’d be cool to see how that camcorder works compared this little ZV-1
7:03 Dylan there looking at his phone while Sam is filming on his camera. Give him a camera to use!
Thank you for reading and showing the difference to my question! I’ve been debating on ordering this camera or just use my iPhone! I literally got excited when I seen this! Thanks Gene keep up the great work!
I love my zv1. Every hiking video since June was recorded with it.
@@ScottHervieuxOutdoors going to have to get me one here soon.
Unless you are a professional photographer, the only reason to get a dedicated camera is for video. Even then, unless you need professional level videos, the only reason to get a dedicated video camera over a cellphone is for low light videos. Then the problem with finding the right mirrorless cameras start because they are mostly picture cameras first and video second, thus their video features are less than stellar, most of them lacking basic video features found on the iPhone, such as slow mo, 4k 60fps etc. The reasonable option is to get a dedicated camcorder (totally the actual way togo) but these days camcorders are not as popular with these influencers because they all want bokeh videos. The only camera that could truly rival a cellphone would be something like the a7Siii but now we are in the 4k range...so yea. Get the ZV-1 for 580$ with a student discount at B&H.
Hello potato mr
Really cool stuff that makes me think filming and photography is my thing thanks to you.... You not perfect but you just make every moment worthy..
"I think Dylan should just take over the reviews" 😂😂😂 solid review man, thanks for the video
Potato jet you have been a great teacher and I really really love your stuff but I’m sure that you don’t recommend even the Zv 1.. I take you seriously when I go to buy something new. So please stay honest and original. We love you ! Kiss from Greece I’m going to sleep
Thanks for this video! I bought this lens for my RX100VII and it’s amazing!
The 2 in 1 is a really sweet solution. I like it.
"Don't be an ass" bruh that was the funniest shit i've heard all day.
The image of the camera is excellent.
i love this attachment bro
Is it weird that I preferred the iphone footage at the end?
Looked a bit fake to be honest.
It looked too bright and those skin tones...
@@tams805 he most likely forgot to turn off hdr. Conversion from hdr to standart dr messses up colors quite a bit
@Guilherme I don’t disagree. Still hard to complain about that footage considering it’s from a phone. This is coming from someone who’s spent tens of thousands on professional video equipment in the past. Skin tones aren’t perfect, but I’m sure a tweak in the software would sort that out. Imagine Apple decided to sell a bmp4k type camera with a large sensor and their computational power under the hood? If they are capable of this type of footage with a minuscule sensor and tiny lens, imagine the possibilities when scaled up?
@Guilherme let’s face it though, you know it’ll be the best camera by a mile in that segment if they did, and it would start a tech war and we all win!
I seen all the reviews of this lens, and still haven’t decided if I want one, or just use a longer selfie stick.
This one works great with cells and all small cameras, I love it!

I'm living the moment twice
does the wide angle lens affect the video and image quality? that's all I want to know, thanks a ton
Do you think that will also work with the RX100 series cameras?
it works with RX100 and you would need extra adapter ring with back adhesive since the size is little different. please check with uurig direct store and it would be available soon.
Gene omg you are almost to 1 million subs. Remember when we were like 10k?????
3:23 Thought I was watching a Camera Conspiracies comparison for a moment there.
I almost unsubscribed but thanks for not throwing that glass, as much as I loved seeing the iPhone 12 pro I do prefer the look of the zv1 camera vlog the only difference is the battery life, its almost like you can't win XD much love from Vancouver canada
Cool stuff. I have the Zv1 and I'm surprised at how good at is. I may have to scoop this lens. Thanks for the review!
thanks as always dude. so, zv1 worth it these days over using a phone? HDR does look cool, but for a whole video would it become a bit much? I currently use a g7x mk2 and love it so need solid reasons for upgrade.
when you said there are rumors FLOATING...and the cam look so close to falling into the water i was waiting for it to go bloop!
Any concerns about the weight of the ulanzi causing issues with the motor of the camera?
8:35 Woww I remember that shot on the vlog channel, it did feel like we lived the moment twice loll
So tempted Gene, but may sit tight and see if your rumour becomes true. 🤞🏻
Love the trespass. 😂
This looks much better than the other ones of these i've seen. Maybe that's because it's a little less wide.
Dope vid! Im waiting for mine to arrive in the mail!
Did this with my original rx4! Just be careful you don't actually bump it. The motors are pretty noisy towards the end of life.
I saw another episode where you were talking about the M50 which one would you prefer.
I prefer the M50 for cost effectiveness tbh but even better is the Sony A64 or A66
M50
@@SolidBlueBlocks M50 is meh
@@MadlyNathan Full hd ist so freaking good on it, and it makes so good photos. But even 4k can be perfect, my first video was a B-roll in 4k with the m50 and its good!
M50 is an mirrorless camera and the lens is interchangeable. If you want something nice and compact I would suggest you go for the sony, If you want that interchangeable lens and want more features like Electronic view finder, Better grip and looking to up your photography and cinematography game go for m50. It really depends but both cameras are great for travel I would say. I’m not sure about the low light performance but I think m50 has better low light thanks to bigger sensor.
Great compact camera. Good hands on review 👍
This lens is like the ones for the phones.
Slap on a good filter there and this could help make the lens adapter even better. Maybe you can also try it on a RX100 camera
Dylan really looks like he is some kind of hacker or special agent. Eavesdropping from the van with his headphones and computer and all the knobs on the background.
Best part about that add on lense is it's got threads for a 58mm Variable ND!!!!
2020 Potato Jet shooting videos with Sony. 2018 Gene would not believe it. What would be mind blowing is if Jason Vong started shooting his videos on Canon.
I mount my zv1 on a Zhiyun M2 gimble, this give me the same focal length with the wide angle attachment. I carry the controller in my pocket to start and stop the recoding.
Great ZV1 video my friend 👌the small ZV1 is really a great cam 😉 although I have an FX6 I love my ZV1 😍best cinematic greetings from a passionate german filmmaker
11:00 @Kari
Here is the video!!! I nailed it. Looks good
😂 When he tried to catch the bird
thanks for this video, I just bought mine today and this is really helpful extending of arm is my problem now with this as I am short-handed hahaha
Hi I just found your channel and liked a lot your reviews. I have seen come couple of your videos to find the right camera to get and they have been pretty helpful. Thank you buddy
Pretty sure active stabilization is on so there is a small crop. So using standard stabilization will make it ever so slightly wider.
Great video! that camera is super portable and the footage looks nice.
Sunken City! That place is such a trip
You should be able to use an ND filter now
You could add a extended stick
Took the leap today & bought the ZV-1 & the wide angle lens from Ulanzi.
Color me curious.
I bought the wide angle lens for my zv1 2 weeks ago it's great, do you think an ND filter would be a good thing to get as well?
Isn’t the built in ND filter good in the camera good enough?
I never thought a glue could be strong enough to hold a lens converter adapter :)
Nice :)
I jimmy-rigged a similar setup with a magnetic filter mount and wide angle lens adapter. Yeah, what you got it better. Mine works great too though. I was surprised. 😮
Ohhh danngg that iPhone shots are so good!
Thanks for the review. I will buy the ZV-1. One question, how long does the charge of the battery lasts?
Nice Video. Maybe I'm missing something but wouldn't it be easier for Sony to add a telescoping extension to their vlogging kit then to put a wider angle lens on the camera?
Hey Jet just wondering how the zv1 is holding up. People are mentioning it might put extra wear on the motor and I was wondering if you have experienced any trouble. Are you still using the Ulanzi or have you found better alternatives?
You could try the new Sony A7c with a Samyang 18mm f2.8 as a tiny full frame vlogging setup.
Another great vid.. cheers guys!
Wait!! WHAT?!?!?!?! You have a Sprinter van dedicated for your channel AND your camera guy (Sam) is the driver AND you have that other dude editing your videos in the back while you are on the road?? Dang TH-cam seriously pays good!
Damn I can't believe that's November in California, holy cow
Great review, good option to vlog with.
Damn those iPhone colours and exposure so much better 🥲
Did you have any overheating issues? Here with PP10, 4K 30 and auxiliary LUT the camera was shutting down after just a few minutes
