The Sony Xperia 1 ii will be shipping next month and is one of the top camera systems I've used on any phone to date. Designed by Sony Alpha, it feels much like the mirrorless cameras Sony is known for.
In this video I want to talk specifically about the cameras and the camera applications that ship with this phone. We have an ultra-wide angle 16mm lens, a standard 24mm lens and a portrait-length 70mm lens. You can access the cameras for both stills and video using the basic camera app. There are also 2 dedicated apps for stills and video - the PhotoPro and the CinemaPro respectively.
I'm super excited about this phone from a photography perspective and want to go through all of the functionality that you get on this device.

![It can do it all: Sony Xperia 1 VI [review]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/cY46jgTSSJM/mqdefault.jpg)
Sony NEEDS youtubers like you who know what they're talkin about.. for its Xperia line
Tamam !
Its their fault. This is without doubt the best phone camera and sensor package in the world right now yet its slipped under the radar for a lot of would be buyers. They are too frugal with their marketing.
I hope to see you "review" the camera's of the Xperia 1 III too!
From Alpha to Xperia ✨
I have only had sony smartphones and i love them never been disappointed with them and i think i will never change phone company
they disappointed me after z3 compact, so I switched to different brands, but that's the comeback, I got the phone from pre-order, it's amazing phone, some people complain about screen brightness, for me is fair enough bright, and I think the quality of the screen is amazing, especially if you watch something from Disney+ or Netflix.
Wise choice 😌
That's actualy really sad and I am saying that as a Xperia 5 owner.
+ When I see Xperia 1 II I just can't wait to get my hand on Xperia 5 II - unlike this one, it will be perfect formfactor and battery beast.
@@japkoslav m5 aqua is disappointed me
Yes some head to head comparisons with other phone cameras is a must.
Absolutely, can't wait to see some close up comparisons.
Yes, please!!!
I'd love to see how it compares to the Xperia 1 Mk I
Hi all from Norway! 4 more days and i have this beautiful mobile in my pocket :-)
Lucky you, enjoy it!
I ordered what seems like an eternity ago, still no news on shipment :(
Hi!@@sydsam i ordered it 3 -4 weeks ago, thakes time, sone wee have it... LOVE from Norway ^^
Me too. 4 more days. Also a Norwegian lol
@@wtfmrb293 Hoper telenor klarer leveringenmed headset .-)
Been using Sony phones for years. When you master their sensors, they're the best camera phones on the market, I don't care what anyone says
Except Sony use a Samsung sensor for their telephoto camera on this phone.
@@Pete_1986 and for their front camera. I'm talking about in general they make excellent sensors and always have
@@Pete_1986
The telephoto and the selfie. But Sony still implements their tech.
What they do with it, you won't find in other devices.
You can’t “master a sensor” when you can only shoot jpeg like in most Sony phones. Only recently did they add raw support to their phones.
@@Kopetefish you can master as far as their software allows. That's more what I mean. If you take the time and actually make a conscious effort, Sony always made solid camera sensors that you could get incredible photos from. We are still talking about a phone in the end. I'm thinking more about how they dropped off and people said their cameras sucked, when in reality they didn't. People just didn't want to shoot manual ever
I'm not into phones, but this is amazing. I'm a bit obsessed.
Same here, until I saw the price. RX100 will do for now.
It takes beautiful picture just like a dsrl camera look it on instagram just outstanding
I really liked when you compared the smartphone pictures against a DSLR. Perhaps from my science background, I appreciate seeing the DSLR picture as a theoretical standard. I think it's helpful when the viewer can't see what the actual scene looked like. In terms of smartphone comparisons, I'd like to see the Xperia go against the Iphone, P40 Pro, and to a lesser extent the Samsung phones.
I preordered mine. As a huge Sony fan, I'm happy I am getting a Sony again. I gave up on them with my last phone as they kept having the same issues after some time of usage... But that's a great phone!! + the headphones
Great review! I've ordered Xperia 1 MKII 6 days ago and next monday it's mine. Can't wait. Sony finally decides to make a great camera smartphone. Maybe i'll do a YT video...test it in the nature.
oh man, I've been waiting for this ever since you posted the first review. much appreciated!
Great video. Great capabilities in a camera not found on others. This video for people who knows about cameras and photography. For those who are asking for specs comparison or comparing with other phones, there are other videos out there. This phone has features that no other phones has. For example it can shoot 20fps and Eye focus (inclduing animal eye). This allows you to take moving or sports picture with great focus and 20 frames per second and the pictures will be sharp. You will never miss a moment. This is because this 1 ii uses a new dual pixel autofocus sensor (even though it's only 12 MPa). You cannot do this with samsung, apple or others. All other phones just uses the older technology dual phase AF sensors. Samsung S20 ultra has 108Mpa which is good if you want to take static pictures of your food, scenery, etc. But it also suffers from poor autofocus where your shots will be blurry. If you know about photography, this phone is for you.
That image of the sunflowers looked absolutely incredible. I need to try it whenever this phone is available.
Heyy... Sony stopped mobile phone marketing in India. 😑
Surprised I don't see

Thats more for pixels
People really need the profesional photographer review like you sir. Thanks you so much...
Sony just revived the old category of phones,
Camera Phones.
Night Mode will be coming as an update soon, along with RAW support. Based on how Sony's Night Mode performs on the mid range Xperia 10 II, we can safely sure it will be as good as any other phones' Night Mode at the very least.
I think RAW will only come for main lens. For some reason, having RAW support on multiple lenses is something I haven't seen in any (Android) phone, so my best guess is that it's not supported in Android OS itself and app developers can do nothing about it.
@@dominikotocan1348 LG V60 also has RAW support
@@dominikotocan1348 So long as we get an unlockable bootloader, everything should be very fine. Xperia 10 II is already part of Android Open Source Program, we can safely assume that the Xperia 1 II will follow suit, and eventually allow unlocking bootloaders.
@@dominikotocan1348 if I'm remember correctly the LG V30 have had the raw on both lenses.
Edit: nop, I was wrong, only one lense with raw, but all lenses with manual settings... my actual trash phone (s10+) can't do even this.
UPDATE: RAW for all 3 so you guys are covered !!
As a pro wedding photographer my next phone upgrade had to have a camera which had depth to it. This video has just sold this phone to me. I want more control over my photos and it looks like Sony have done the job. Great video.
World number one photography channel
Hi! Thank you for a great video! Big fan of the channel. In terms of comparison, can you maybe do, landscape, human portrait and moving subject? I’m really interested in seeing how what Sony can do in terms of dynamic range and how it handles contrasting scenes ( quite a few reviewers mentioned that highlights get blown out quite often. I’m also interested in how it does in terms of details, I’m a big fan of the natural approach they are taking with minimal computerisation, so it would be great to see how human skin looks, as many phones just blur it out. And of course your workflow with this phone and how you envision it’s going to change after Sony gets the raw support. Once again thank you for the video and keep up the good work!
Hopefully the Xperia 1-ii arrives tomorrow since I haven't got a dispatch email confirmation yet. KineMaster and VivaPro video editors is what I use on android.
Thanks for doing a detailed hands on the Photo Pro and VideoPro apps.
I'll use ProShot app. It's the best manual camera app ever made since Lumia days. The pure photos out of ur camera. No ai, no tint, oversampling. So recommended for raw photos.
Hey, I love your channel! I have the Sony Xperia 1 but have also had LG's in the past. In my opinion, these two brands are the best with camera technology in a smartphone, specifically the manual aspect of it all! I would love to see a broken down camera comparison of Sony Xperia 1 ii and the LG V60 and/or a solo review of the LG V60 thin q!
OMG. It turns out to be a mini Alpha having a sim card in it =))
This is what we should actually call a pro camera for a smartphone.
Let's wait and see which other smartphones companies will copy it
Samsung brought their mobile technology to their (now defunct) cameras and it was amazing but they gave up ... Sony finally realized they can bring their camera expertise to their mobile division, we shall have to see if they can save their mobile division (I haven't seen a Sony phone taken seriously since there Cybershot ones from mod 2000). But If I were to upgrade or get a phone that was serious for photography this would be the MINIMUM I would expect it to do/feature.
Samsung really gave up when they started M series with fake 48mp camera.
Well for a child who does not know the things that happen only in background and focuses only on specs and numbers those ISOCELL 48 MP sensors are fake.
You forgot the first couple of xperia z series
Before last year, Sony's Mobile Imaging Division is barely helped by their proper Sony Alpha Division, yet their cameras always have been keeping up with the competition.
Last year was the first try of their collaboration, and it was successful for the most part. This year, they just brought things up even further and we can see the pay-off with this phenomenal camera setup.
Forget the media who knows nothing about photography than just merely clicking the shutter button. The professional photographers themselves are far more impressed than anyone else, and definitely they're the ones who should be trusted when it comes to reviewing this phone's camera capabilities and not those biased and paid platforms.
Xperia 1 mk2 is not for everyone... it's for photographers level like users!
Agreed, I feel like a lot of youtube comparisons will compare this phone on auto mode with other phones. While good, Sony does not focus as much on post-processing as other companies have, so to have a true comparison we need to see a comparison using photo pro mode
Atleast if your a normal user but suddenly you become interested in photography with a professional like manual control, atleast it is a good option to practice.
It's also a very good option for entertainment systems. 4K, Front Facing Stereo Speakers, 21:9. Works for Gaming and Streaming like a charm
Sony not for normal user like iPhone user's, just for manual user
Their Auto Mode is set to deliver the same natural images as they do on the Photo Pro app, but with all settings controlled automatically by the phone.
Samsung, Google and Apple basically taught everyone to be lazy mofos and made them believe that overprocessed images always look better.
Worst yet, they compare their precious phones to an A7III and concludes that their phones are better just because of better dynamic range (which is mostly done by software enhancement and not the camera's true potential).
You know who's talking bullshit when a real photographer highly praises this phone's imaging capabilities while the popular media talks crap about it.
If you do a camera comparison against other devices I'd like to see both the default and pro camera app in those results. The reason being is because I wanna see how well it works as a sort of point and shoot since phones position themselves as such. I also want to see how much of a differences in the kind of photo you can produce in pro mode when you decide on a specific look as opposed to letting the phone decide for you.
looking forward to a comparison video for sure. This might be my next phone.
Awesome! I'd love if you talked more about the actual quality that comes out of this phone when it comes to things like dynamic range, detail level, noise and low light performance.
Tedd, please test the autofocus of the cameras, this is the most important feature for me.
I’ve watched most of the videos and I’ll gonna say the Autofocus is so insanely fast and accurate.
@@neontyler6663 Sony advertises this phone as being A9-like. All youtubers just test for image quality and white balance, nobody is taking this thing to photograph anything that moves.
@@Biker_Gremling watch TK BAY then...those review from him maybe you can have your answer from that review...and the first review of this channel also shows how fast autofocus is while shooting moving objects especially the flag part that was being blown away by the wind but still captures a less blurr photo.
When you get this phone, autofocus will be at the very least of your concerns. Meanwhile, that 108MP from that explosive brand is barely worth $200, even the $400 iPhone SE is doing a much better job.
a manual mode Xperia 1 ii vs iPhone 11 Pro or Google Pixel 4, please!
No need comparision, Xperia 1 ii will definitely destroy both of them, in term of camera quality.
Huawei p40 pro wins.
Lol
@@iharu_9123 isn't it ban in the USA?
@@iharu_9123 only in zoom!
@@lukemothug3744 The Huawei P40+ easily beats the Xperia II, (according to people who have had all 2 devices). As for the ban, I don't live in the USA haha
I'm a casual but I'm looking to get a capable photo shooting smartphone and waited to upgrade from my OnePlus 1 (yes I know a dinosaur) to the Xperia 1 ii. I had been tracking it since it was announced and don't regret pre-ordering it, except Sony sent me an email June 17th to say the initial delivery date (June 18th) was moved to almost a month and a half later (July 31st). For the first time that I spend more than 500€ for a phone, I'm pretty disappointed in Sony's communication department.
Thanks for the video though, I was waiting for it. I literally watch every Xperia 1 ii content on TH-cam (except all the fake comparison videos). On that note, for your comparison video, I would personally like to see pictures of people in different lighting, moving subjects (people, objects, animals...), slow motion videos, regular videos and indoor pictures. Keep up your great work.
portrait lens looks so good!
Yes finally a 70mm equivalent lens that doesn't feel like an afterthought. Really impressed with the granular level controls on this phone.
Relly
Would love a video comparison between Xperia 1 or 5 and Xperia 1 ii.
I like sony not because of cameras their user interface is also their is fun in using their phone.They are real premium devices. People forget about periscope lense,48,64&108mp cameras.12mp only changed the game.love you sony
I think a camera comparison of the strengths and weaknesses of the Sony Experia 1 ii vs apple/google/samsung would be nice to see. All these other companies have phones that are heavy in computational photography so things like HDR and high dynamic range situations look really good. However, the new Experia 1 ii seems to be a throwback to a traditional camera experience. Things like high FPS, fast autofocus, and long exposures are the hallmarks of that experience. I would love to see someone who is well versed in photography, actually use these parameters to show what this camera phone can do.
Also, I say for your comparison, do a three way. Include huawei (like a p40 since it is so revered), and maybe an Apple or Samsung product as the third.
Im so in this phone.. i really want to sell my iPhone for this.

Just got my Sony ZV-1! Looking forward to trying out the Xperia Mkii. Sony is delivering this year!
Why not just get the Xperia mkii? It does everything the ZV-1 does and much more
@@bioroid09 different sensor size, better lens, and it's a separate, dedicated device.
@@darthmandude the sensor size on the Xperia 1ii is very similar to the ZV-1. The Xperia 1ii is the best of both worlds essentially. I don't see the point in carrying a dedicated camera made by Sony if they made a phone with the same technology as their camera lineup.
@@bioroid09 ZV-1 is primarily a vlogging cam. That's why it is better than any smartphone.
@@peterdurum434 So you're telling me that the Iphone is not a good vlogging camera?
If you called me and Sony fanboys I wouldn't deny it. I pre-ordered this phone through B&H and this will be my fourth Sony phone. I have always bought form over function, in other words, I prefer a bigger phone and I have gotten the XA ultra series phones from Sony. While these phones may have larger megapixel photo sensors, I can say that it doesn't guarantee a good photo. You may want to talk about the sensor it's self, as to the quality versus the larger megapixel sensors that are in other phones. Just a thought. Thanks for a nother great video.
ps. The last"performance phone" that I had was the Nexus 6. I abandon Google phones when they abandoned wireless charging and larger screens.
Would love to see a comparison with Pixel phones as they usually end up on top when it comes to camera quality. Comparing HDR effects and how the camera performs in low light (even without the night sight stuff). As well, even though they're not in the same league, it'd cool to see the Sony compared to a DSLR just to see how it does.
How audio recording works here, can you control the levels manually, no auto level, internal mic(s) quality? Mono, stereo?
Cinema Pro has few audio controls. All sony phones record stereo, even those $200 Xperia ....
It has wind effect to remove wind noise from video and some audio controls in cinema pro app
@@blackoctopus5182 yeah the wind filter effect makes the footage sound like it's underwater. Better to leave it off actually.
@@silva_br1 Exactly, it uses the normal mic at the bottom of the phone (I'm not sure if it's one specifically for video/speakerphone, or just the one for normal phone calls) for the right channel, and the noise cancellation mic at the top of the phone for the left.
@@sidersproductions941 it shouldn't
Love to see it compared to iPhone 11 pro max especially for video, Huawei P40 pro, S20 Ultra and Xiaomi Mi 10 Pro. Also any comparison between the Sony pro app Vs something like Filmic Pro would be really interesting. Thank you for the review.
Thank you, this was a great video. Cant wait for the xperia 1 II..

Best camera set up on a mobile phone
Well actually there are besser Setups Out there. Oppo with the x2 pro has a far larger main sensor (1/1.4 to 1/1.7), a far larger ultrawide angle sensor (1/2 to 1/2.6) and 5 times optical zoom. OnePlus has the same wide and ultrawide and a similar telephoto.

Try VN
Or
Viamaker
I have been facing this same prob.
For like past 3 years until I finally found out them
They are perfect if you just wanna use blade tools or.just sync audio ...
Great for mobile ...yet free of cost✨
Better than kinemaster??🙂
Try using Adobe rush its a pretty good multi platform video editor for both android and ios.
2000: my phone has a camera
2020: my camera has a phone
I'd like to see someone take this to the extreme, like the old galaxy K zoom but with updated technology/processing/sensors etc.
A comparison between the Sony Xperia 1 Mark ii and the Samsung Note 20 Ultra would be very nice. I can’t decide wich one would be my upgrade phone after nearly 5 years of waiting 😶 i do like the design more of the Sony tho.
If you look into more phone, please consider the One Plus 8. They've really upped their game in regards to camera. Would love to see your take on it as you use other devices.
Mind blowing how far cameras on phone have come !
Sony The Best! 💯
Wow! Looking forward to mine in July 😁
Watching from my 5 year old sony xperia z2 it work every day battery good too sony 😍😍😍
Thank you for this review. From what you have said thus far I am convinced that placing a pre-order for this device was a great decision.
Bought a Mark II, gonna sell my S20 Ultra, so yeah a camera comparison would be great to make sure I did the right thing.
Search one up, someone already made one and the xperia mkii performed very professionally
I miss the compact line Sony use to make. They need to bring it back!
Xperia 5 ii will be amazing
More portrait mode! Skin tones and selfie camera, great video! Keep it up
After getting this phone, I came back to this video for a quick tutorial.
How's the front camera?
I would love to see a s20 ultra vs. the MK II. Your knowledge and presentation were fantastic, thoroughly enjoyed this episode.
Not gonna lie I'm a little disappointed you spent all this time and didn't show us the actual images from the phone. Just the same set of shots you showed on your initial video. That camera interface is just gorgeous though. Really love what Sony did this year.
SONY Xperia 1 mark 2 best smartphone 📱 2020 👍 😊
Thank you so much for the insight😊 It can't even shoot RAW yet? That's actually a huge letdown. Hopefully they implement it soon and for all three cameras. I always use RAW on my Samsung Note 8 and it's awesome. It's unfortunately only the main 24mm equivalent camera that shoot RAW files which is kind of a bummer.
Does it compare to something like the Rx100 vii in stills? Or the new zv1 for video? I think a comparison of the two is a must.
It can't physically compare, it's impossible. Rx100 (any version) has a huge sensor and lens in comparison.
the software at least, but hardware can't because of physical limitations
The RX100 will be better of course, but I'd still love to see how much worse the Xperia 1 II is, especially for skin tones and if it is good enough not to carry around a dedicated camera as well
When you compare this Sony with Samsung and Apple, I would like to see how they perform taking photos of sunsets, landscape (photos with depth) and during night time outdoors.
You could toss in for the comparison the Nokia 9 Pureview along with the other you've mentioned.
Would love to see a manual mode battle between the xperia 1 mark 2 and the lg v60 which i think is pretty much the only competition in manual mode! That one would be awesome to see! Anyway great vid!
Phone is great, but I've seen noticeable pin cushion distortion on GSMarena's camera samples of the main lens and also noticeable on DPreviews's sample gallery. It's not super noticeable in normal/close up shots, but once you know it's there, it definitely nags at you. The issue here is that Sony went with an equivalent 24mm on the main lens (as opposed to 26mm on the previous generation). The distortion is on the main lens and I think it comes from the lens itself, but the 24mm focal length definitely doesn't help the situation. It's so bad that you can see the edge of buildings bulged as a bow. The problem is that Sony has distortion correction only on the ultra wide lens, and not on the main one in the camera settings, so there is no way to circumvent this thing, save for post processing. Perhaps something to look at in your comparison video would be distortion of building edges vs other flagships.
I've the experia1 and it doesn't have this problem on the main camera,so I'll be very surprised if its a problem on the mk11,even if its 24mm,suprised that this professional photographer hasn't mentioned it either?
Dpreview. Ahahahahah what a twat fest of a page. Full of fan boys and comments of gas syndrome kids. My camera is bigger than yours blah blah blah. Everyone forgets about the ergonomics of the camera phone. Everyone's just looking for bragging rights of I have the best camera. Which if course is completely subjective.
Every flagship phone this year and last year takes great photos. Stop pulling hairs and pick something that is comfortable and a joy to use which excites you and gives you enjoyment. Let's be honest, if your going to be staring at an edge of a picture taken on a cellphone you really should not be buying a phone for photos. Idiots......
GSM arena reviews are shit
@@gareths9574 so true, my favorite spec from the phone is that 4k display.. I spend more time watching videos on TH-cam and Netflix than the camera app...I only take pictures sometime
comparisons are always great... haha, it would be ideal to watch a comparison between the p40 pro +, Samsung s20 Ultra and so on... very nice video..!
Japanese reviewers has the comparisons coz they have the phone a lot earlier...but the problem is they don't have a subtitle for their vids but atleast you can see a legit comparison for having the actual phone.
To be honest, as I mention before, all flagships take great pictures today. If u do a blind test, its very hard to find out which photo was taken from Xperia, or Iphone, or Galaxy, etc... But I stick with Nokia 9, Mark II and P40.
Actually you kinda able to tell. For mark 2 the samples are giving a clear kind of feel which DSLR lens have. Although there might be minor noise but it have the natural hdr and clear feeling.
Yes and an impressive departure from earlier smartphones
I would love to see a comparison, but with pro mode.
For example my S10 takes decent photos with auto mode, but when i shift to the pro mode, the photos looks completely different, very narrow dynamic range because there's no HDR. (In Auto Mode even if i turn off the HDR, it still apply some highlight compression, in pro mode doesn't)
I want to see how Sony has been improving in the dynamic range with single shot and how is it compared to other phone with single shot on pro mode.
There is DRO/HDR in the pro app, i think gsmarena had some sample shots with that on.
@@lucretius8050 yep, but DRO raise the iso, and HDR disable burst shooting i guess.. idk, but is disabled by default
My previous Sony phone lasted for 6yrs and it finally broke down after how many times my clumsy hands had dropped it. The power button became sensitive, but the phone itself still solid. I just decided to let it rest and got a new one 😅
I seen Mattias Burling's video on the Nokia 9 n i can't forget that phone. It seems to have a crazy dynamic range in its raw files. Please try and add the Nokia 9 in the comparison video as well.
it has nightscene detection in the auto mode and in the stockcamera app and uses a longer exposure there so it does have some kind of nightmode. it just does not make daylight from a nightscene what google does.
Hey please create a video of comparing the Sony with other phones (specifically if you could also compare the pro modes in certain phones). Secondly could you please make a video comparing xperia 1 mark 2 with a camera (dslr) that could really help
From last year's 1 to this mark 2, the upgrades are really noticeable. And this is only the camera side that you're talking about here.
I'm definitely waiting for this phone, hopefully I can get one this week.
Can't wait to see what they'll do for the mk III, maybe variable aperture, it'd be awesome.
definitely add the Pixel 4 to the comparison! would be interesting to see how Sony's camera smarts stacks up against Google's computational photography
For the comparison video between phones please do:
- Bokeh effect comparison using the portrait lenses (NOT the standard ~24mm lens).
- Night photos (noise, dynamic range, retained details) on all three lenses, but especially the wide angle.
- Dynamic range of all three cameras versus the competition, but especially the wide angle.
- Higher ISO performance and continuous AF performance of the telephoto lens.
Hard to compare the three lenses dynamic range with the competition because is really hard to find the three lenses with manual mode on the market, most of the manufacturers restrict secondary lenses to auto mode, and obviously the use HDR aggressively, in Sony's case is disable by default and is less aggressive.
A real dynamic range comparison should be with HDR off on every lens and phones.
P30, iphone 11 pro, S20 Ultra, is a good line up, if you can get a P40 as well, as they, as well as the S20U has a slightly bigger sensor on their camera, you can do an up and down on how well they harness those big sensor (like with the S20U being unable to properly focus with such tight bokeh, etc)
another addition the dark horse Oneplus 8, they actually have a pretty impressive sensor under it now, seeing how it's gonna be the cheapest in the lineup (not counting Huaweis, as really, buying them now is just bad decision).
Id like to not only hear image quality impression on different condition in auto, but also how well they can cope with human input (whether use native or 3rd party app) its important to add manual comparison as that's a new look Into them not many people dive that far, most just stuck on doing auto review and that's kinda a shame. the experience in picture taking would be nice as well.
Sony phones are always the best for me ❤️
Hi Ted, awesome video!
I think a Camera comparison between the Xperia 1 ii, Galaxy s20+ and one plus 8 pro would be awesome. I think those are the main flagships competing with each other and the ones we camera lovers but also who like great phones would consider buying. S20 ultra would be not as interesting to see in the comparison in my opinion.
Cheers
Amazing.. only smartphone comany does not compromise for quality.! Great Phone, with out of the box technologies. Every brands are running for megapixel counts.. 64, 108... with almost utter failure in taking ultimate quality photos. Where SONY stands to there believe with proofs, they know what is the required specification for each module.. whether it camera or gaming or memory or display.. Fabulous Smartphone. As SONY says.. make.believe.! Wonderful
What I like to see is how good the autofocus is with handling moving subjects. I would also like to see a comparison of the zoom function with the Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra. And how does this phone handle colours compared to other companies? Which companies offer true life like photos?
This video was really good. Finally a video which focuses on the camera functionality. I am looking forward to see the next video and hope you offer photo samples.
i want this phone so badly
Dream phone
Maybe a comparison between auto mode and manual modes that they have. It could be an interesting comparison to the standard manual that smartphones have compared to the Xperia that is backed up by the Alpha team. Tho I'm pretty sure it's very minute.
Yes, a comparation with iPhone 11 Pro Max would be wonderful. Thanks
From my Pixel 3 XL I'm looking to upgrade to either the Pixel 5 or this. I'd love to see the Pixel 4 included in the comparison because I would love to see Sony's hardware and software photos compared to Google's computational photography.
Feeling love with Sony 😍
I tested the Xperia 1ii camera closely. The camera of this phone is so great that you can easily shoot a professional movie with it or record the best photos of the world in different situations with the camera of this phone.
Hi guys where I can buy sony xperia 1ii?
Just a few years ago if someone asked me if phones had surpassed point and shoot, I would tell them they are drunk its not possible, but today phones FINALLY are on par with point and shoot cameras the only thing phones still cannot really beat are compact cameras with one inch sensors but frankly for the avg joe he wont care and I am surprised myself how versatile phones have become in the camera department.
The thing I always look for in a camera is not specs, but how the images turn out, I really love colour science in Samsung NX1 and I find it really sad that Samsung just cannot reproduce that into their phones, and very few phones actually have "nice" images its always just been digital garble but Sony Xperia 1 II actually shoots amazingly pleasant looking images, some of the Chinese phones like Xiaomi and Huawei are not that far behind either, at the end of the day the people viewing the images are not counting pixels or dynamic range, they are looking at HOW nice the image look, colour is a big part of it if it is in colour but too sharp and it looks digital and too soft it looses details, you just want something in the middle that looks pleasing.
Its always been hard for me to find such in a phone its always been the compact cameras and some point and shoot, but damn are phone manufacturers catching up. (Yes I know you can shoot RAW in many phones in the past and adjust the image, not my point)
Very nice video! Very informative! I would love you are a detailed comparison with other top Flagships. Thank you
While comparing with iphone nd samsung plz show both resumts of sony default canera app nd pro mode camera app
I'd like to see a comparison with the huawei P30 pro I really loved the camera in there, my mom has it, I was able to shoot some really cool images with that phone, I thought it was better than the xperia 1 I own, at least in terms of telephoto shooting.
By the way do you know if the photo pro app will be available for the xperia 1? It seems really cool.
Thank you! Finally a worthy camera review for this device. Would you share a few stills?
I think there should have been a shutter button on the screen in pro mode. It woudn't have costed them anything more than some pride/or PR. Pressing a physical button may introduce shakes in some low ISO low light shots if you're going for a 0.2/0.1 sec shutter speed.
