Coming from cine cameras like the Panasonic GH5s, Zcam E2, BMPCC4k. The Nikon Z30 is the best camera I have ever used. Gets me the shoot 100% of the time with none of the struggle. Nobody notices 1080p exported as 4k, but my storage and editing speed thanks me. I put the Nikon back to back with the other cameras once in a while and I always prefer the Nikon look at 1/5 the file size. I just hope the next model is 10bit.
I have the same problem with a similar pullover sweater. You have just provided the clothing industry an opportunity to install a whisker guard improvement! I hope you understand how you are helping to make life better for the bearded ones!
You didn't mention the Sony X3000! Loved this video. Even though I do photography, I enjoy hearing your overviews and analysis. And, of course, the humor. Have a great week.
I've been really happy with the ZV-E1. I was worried about overheating when some of the early reviews came out; however, I have yet to have a heat warning pop up on mine even when shooting in 4k120 for several minutes in direct sunlight in Florida. I don't think I'd trust it if I were filming for an hour or two straight, but for less than 30 minute clips, it has been flawless for me.
The only thing stopping me from buying zve1 is that sony doesn't sell any hotshoe evf for new gen of sony cameras, they have multiple evf since RX1 and nex time but they aren't compatible with new sony cameras.
Yeah, and its fun to see from the future some 'leaked news' or 'predictions' (as a joke in Kasey stile I usually wanna say " I'll predict yor mom, vlogger"). Sometimes I cry from Toneh reviews where specs are no near real ))
Love your work. The beard-pinching sweater is brilliant. The Canon hammer is brilliant. Keep up the great work, sending positive energy from Sweden :-)
The EOS R in 4K with the stabe off looked great (I love it when you use the R outside as well as studio shots). Therefore, I would choose the R8 as the sweet spot - however, I also have a fair few EF lenses to begin with.
Bought a powerbank for fast charging for the R8. Works like a Charme, but in 4K it’s overheating after about 1 hour. It’s still really good and the image is spot on. So that’s my choice for video, mail cam is the R7 though, love it, not the best but I get the bests results with it. Thanks for the vid, was fun 🙏🏻
From canon i would say the rp because i got it for only 500€ open box and paired with the new 28mm 2.8 its pretty compact ! My second camera is the om system om-5 which is beautiful,compact,c4k the only problem is that doesn't have usb type c connection
A bit much to take all in. It used to be the big5 : Canon, Sony, Panasonic, Nikon and Fuji, would have been nice to break it down over the course of a week. But now with DJI, Black Magic and Go Pro, you could make it into a whole series! You should come back on the Osmo, there’s some people out there promoting it as the "One Man Studio" cam, it would be nice if you could go a little more in-depth.
Man I love your energy. What's your Solar degree? I'm 5°37' ♈ - your in ♐ right? Id love to talk or hear about real-time streaming: NDI, SRT or (dare we dream) RIST. There are only a handful of machines with real network ports. Have you heard or looked at ZCams? I think they're about to clean house, as soon as people *realize* that networked real-time video *exists*. I saw the world map on your wall; are you one of the precious few who realized the ground under your feet wasn't accelerating and the air you were breathing was pressurized? 😂. Much love, from a Brother born in Montreal who now lives abroad. Cheers and much thanks 🙏
Hello Kasey, follower from Nigeria. I love love your content, always lifts my spirit. I like how you roast photographers, even when I'm a full time photographer. One of the first videos of yours i saw had you dissing a photographer (can't recollect accurately) I just got the R8, still in transit to me though. And I'm very excited fo own my first real camera since resigning from my 9-5 to start photography in 2019. I was really hoping you'd give a deep dive to the R8, but seeing this has validated my choice. Thanks.
everyone focused on specs. I'm impressed at the ability to disappear out of the shot and no one takes off with the camera. That would be cinematic footage for us. Frustrating for sock/sandal boy.
I know you love slow mo and for your use case I do find it funny when you use it. But for most people making youtube videos I feel like the S5 ii hits all the boxes yes it crops in 4k60 but for the money it's hard to argue against since it does everything else so well.
Hi Kasey, loving the daily videos. I have a question about computer monitors. I currently have a pretty nice 24" Dell UltraSharp monitor that's served me well for almost a decade, but it's only 1080p and non-HDR. I'm still happy with it, as my Canon RP outputs 1080p video footage in 8bit so that's all I need. But I'm about to get a GoPro which does 4k/5.3k in 10bit. How important is it to upgrade to a 4k HDR monitor? Or can I save a few hundred dollars and remain in blissful ignorance of how good 4k looks? And also: how about a 1440p monitor? Would that be a good compromise between resolution and price? Or do you think that with 4k footage I would absolutely need a 4k monitor?
4k is nice but we are in the early stages of the OLED revolution. Contrast and colors that blow away mini LED technology. Liquid light. The problem is that OLED screens start at around 43” and get larger. My recommendation, though you didn’t ask for it, is to wait until there is a smaller, less expensive OLED screen in a few years. I want to upgrade my IPad but I’m waiting for an OLED version.
is it TH-cam almost 4k? Not yet, same true for video-sites with free film viewing. As for me i wanna try 2560x1440 px monitor (some BenQ model) cause i have many old videos even less then 720p and alot of old games with same resolution :) 4k for me is overkill, + more efficient computer gear is needed (including internet)
i've had the benq PD 3220U since like 2 years for that exact reason.. you'll even see a difference if you shoot 4k on a 1080 P screen (oversampling and stuff like that) but when you get a 4K screen youll be blown away at how beautiful it looks, until you get used to the 4K beauty then everything is the same again... but youll appreciate it for a good 2 Months
I have gone through soooo many cameras In the last year. My sweet spot is actually the zv-e1 for the image and ease of use on the go. For image quality I kept the bmpcc4K. BTW it has both auto focus and auto exposure, however limited. Af is single af and auto exposure can use iris and shutter. On or the other or both at the same time with one having priority. I wouldn’t really use it for anything serious but you can fire it up to set exposure and switch it if again to lock it. C200 in raw was a massive letdown. Trying to pull anything from the shadows would end up in disaster.
In Olympus realm OM-5 seems to be sweet spot for vlogging. It's almost 200g lighter then OM-1, and to everything for video making. It's 8bit AFAIR but it will do. I think I'm going to try it with Leica 9mm soon ...
@@SKIDSnSTUFF Unfortunately it's not the case. Cause it got record limit and the most important for video does not have AutoISO feature in Manual mode. Sure if you do not care about 180 degree shutter you can get away with Aperture priority mode where it's supposed to have auto ISO. Not sure if got Olympus LOG. But lately there was olympus cashback and you could get OM-5 at the prices of EM5 III brand new ... hope there will be another cashback ... I find cashback kinda stupid, but what can you do :(.
@JoATTech oh snap, I didn't realise the OM5 got autoISO/M. I just been dealing with splitting the difference (with highlights/lowlights) on the EM5M3. Cheers for the heads up, it's worth the upgrade to the OM5 just for that. Now if they'd just sort out their SlowMo picture profile I would want for nothing
@@SKIDSnSTUFF I'm 99% sure it got AutoISO in M mode, it's based on reading the manual myself :D, zero reviewers mention it :(, guess they are not aware it was a limitation before. I'm planning to buy used OM-5 (actually there is 1 in my Country) but I'm kinda waiting for Black Friday deals :D. If I get it next week I will definetely check it and maybe publish some first impressions video, cause I never had Olympus camera before :D
Recently received the OM5 and I'm blown away how many extra features and options have been added that no one mentions. Not only does it have auto ISO in M for video it allows exposure compensation which I had seen somewhere claim it did not. It does. It even has real slow motion now that records in which ever profile you have set, both flat and Om log. I was bummed when noticed they took away video switch on the FN lever option (Edit: actually it does allow Lever2 position as Video Mode, but I kinda like this new workflow anyway), but they have actually just implemented the video mode custom button options in a better way, now allowing the FN lever to be flicked to "2" in video mode which makes the f and r dials into volume control and exp comp. This thing is mint!
Yep agreed with the Om/Olympus slowmo frame rate forced over contrast, over saturated bullshit. Still dont understand why they do that but it NEEDS to be fixed
No love for Canon R3? Only three cripple hammer dents that I've found: No built in RF flash control, No focus breathing correction, No audio recording at 120fps.
So of all of those, seems overall it’s probably the ZV-E1 that’s the sweet spot? - tiny, 4k60 no crop, 4k120 minimal crop, AI autofocus, new colour science, all the features like loading luts, false colour, etc etc. I’m so excited about this camera, seems in a league of its own. Shitty LCD and no viewfinder but using an iPad as a monitor works surprisingly well.
I've been watching all your work for the last 5 months and you are a treasure. 7 months ago in a piece "Dear TH-camrs: You're Not a Movie" you mentioned the Panasonic G85. I bought a used G95 two weeks ago for $600 and have already spent $1500 on 4 lenses, ND, Black Mist, and Glimmer Glass. I am quite pleased with everything and feel I was able to make these good decisions mostly due to your tireless work, experience, and insight. So I am curious why you only mentioned the Panasonic S5II and G9II in this piece.
I am drawn to buying a second hand X-S10 like lice is drawn to a cheap brothel even though I have a G9 (i) and I love it's ibis (since most of my videos consists of chasing a two year old around). Talk me out of it!
The pro-mist greasy haze really does not compliment Sony's flatter dynamic range at all. I feel like I'm watching you from inside a plastic bottle. 😂 The Zeiss 3D pop is coming in strong at 5.6 though. I kind of like it better. It gives finer edge detail. 😮
Isn’t the Canon r7 weather sealed and the r8 not? The r7 also has faster shutter speed, no? There’s also no mechanical shutter in the r8. So the r7 should be better for wildlife?
If you are taking photos then R7 is better for wildlife. More resolution and a crop sensor. But for wildlife video R8 can do the same crop, has better autofocus, and can do 180 fps instead of 120.
What lens for vlogging on ZV-E1? 11mm APS-C one? or 10kg Viltrox 16mm F1.8? Anything longer will make vlogging impossible (with all these dynamic stabilization crops).
ZVE1 is definitely hitting the sweet spot for my needs. The photos are so much more beautiful than Sony A7IV. I didn’t buy it for stills, just for video, but when I saw the colors in some photos of wildflowers, I was blown away.
a7c is like 1000 bucks best autofocus, best stabilization if you dont mind post production. if im not wrong the a7siii your just paying another 1000 bucks for 10 bit instead of 8 bit. am i missing something there? and why choose the zve1 over the ac7 when zve1 overheats.
X-H2s when compared to the OM-1 just couldn't hold up for color science and something about the dynamic pop of images. I can't say what it is about the OM-1, but I decided to keep it and return the X-H2s. The added MP was nice, and there was more dynamic range potential. However, in real-world use, I never experienced the extra DR. It was strange. I was surprised. It could have been the lens options limiting me, but there you are again faced with the limitations of Fuji lenses. I'd love it if the OM-1 could shoot 10-bit outside of log, or use a profile that's not just a photo profile. Or at least if it let you customize the photo profile just for video mode. Like why not keep these separate? It's frustrating. I suppose you could customize a photo profile and just use that for video, but it seems an extra step you shouldn't have to take. I notice that 4K is sharpened more than photos in the photo modes used. So you have to dial the sharpness back in photo profiles if you select them for video. I use vivid a lot for landscape and wildlife, but it's too sharp for that purpose. It's 0 point sharpness is much more intense than the 0 point in the "natural" profile.
@@tobiasdavid3096 I think the X-H2 might be a bit different as it has a completely different sensor than the X-H2s. I do think we all experience gas quite a lot though. Changing camera systems is a pretty big deal. So it's something you have to be sure about.
I know you said that nobody needs 6k but i have needed to crop into a shot so much, so many times, and that messes up with the delivery of a 4k end material, which would only matter to someone with a 4k monitor? Also I watched a 6k vs 4k comparison of xs20 footage and you could almost see that there are less digital artifacts on the 6k, but very slightly...
It would've been interesting if you'd added a decent 50mm prime to each camera. I'd love to see which ranges remain "sweet" when we look at the price of their lenses.
Do you wonder if any of your YT videos have ever made it to a boardroom screen at Sony or Canon? I would bet they have. Hari Kari is not a person hanging out in airports passing out flowers!
a6700 sweet spot. Best sony APS-C sensor, 10 bit, 4k/120p, IBIS, EVF, lightweight, nice grip, best AF for $1400. FF is too big setup and too heavy and too expensive. On sony APS-C i have 70-350 super lightweight telephoto, cheap and lightweight prime 1.4 lenses, and so much choice in lenses.
Man I was so pumped for the Panasonic S5iiX deal a few weeks back to finally shoot FF in a different lens system than my 6700, but now you got me second-guessing if I should have grabbed a ZVE1 instead
Sweet spot.....my phone ! 3 focal lenghts , slow mo, good stab, good auto focus, 4k , the rest don't ask I don't care, it is all auto so it is just what I need for crappy videos !
yes.. ZV-E1 is that boul..!!! ill do 40 minute takes with it at a pop,, no problems.. no overheating ever.. its funny.. i got into cameras at a young age.. maybe at like.. 15. back in say 02-03.. filming skateboarding with friends.. we used the rich kids Sony VX1000.. and that was like idk.. 480i and we thought it was the best.. then in college.. freshman year,, we had Panasonic DVX100B and HVX as the standard.. with 24p and 1080i (i think.. might have done p) 'CCD chip as well.. then, sophomore year, all the cmos DSLRs came out with 1080p and shallow focus photo lenses.. Canon stole the show.. so when we started with the RED One.. we thought.. oh , do we really need 2k or 4k.. isn't 1080p enough... lol,, well.. i swore 2k was sufficient... but think of the old monitors we used.. now with a 5k iMac.., 4k feels like a must to me.. and I actually prefer 6k at this point if optional.. but now,, I can safely say.., I would never need anymore resolution than 6k.. latitude and color science is where its at honestly.. but yeah, 1080p just ain't doing it for me these days..
I hear rumors of a Lumix G100 mk 2. I don't know if that will be a thing and don't really believe rumors usually, but I was thinking about it and that would kick ass with phase detect... Though if it doesn't have IBIS like the mk 1, I dunno.
i just cant do those canon cameras. especially second hand. that overheating is a big deal to me. a camera not working is probably a big deal to most people lol. r8 is a big no from me :( as much as i love canon cameras otherwise
I was so tempted by the ZV-E1. Top image quality for great value. Definitely the Sony sweet spot. Ended up going FX-30 once they went on sale. Mainly because FX-30 has a fan and can be run confidently all day for live production. No SDI but the full HDMI port is nice vs the small ports that break. Great autofocus. Not the greatest stabilization, better than some. Catalyst browse is a miracle, but you lose the 10 bit. Sony requires a subscription to Catalyst Prepare to output files in 10 bit.
Well my friend, I think you're gonna have to change the title of your introduction song to "Ive finally found the perfect camera" with the Sony A9III launch. I mean, if it's in your budget.
For me, R8 is a no go. Too little battery life, not enough stabilization. ZVE1 is also a no go, because i want that view finder. If it at least had a crisp screen, then I would consider it, but sadly it has a potato (probably the worst screen of all modern cameras). So it leaves me with either a G9II or a S5II(x). I'll likely go with a latter simply because I don't care too much about slow motion, but I really do want a stellar low light performance.
it does feel like a prerelease or beta release.. hence the hammertime.. they all have shortcomings I feel the frustration that CC is dealing with.. someone mentioned Z8 Z9 thats the wrong use case altogether.. way overkill. The Z30 also feels like an unbaked release.. they are just product cycling.. be patient they said.. the sports action offerings all seem gimmicky at best..
A7III Global shutter 960fps focus stacking 10 bit log waveform pseudocolor with free firmware update. Ok, just fix wireless stack vulnerables up to date, 2 years no even bugfix update...

ZV-E1 = overheats like crazy.
A7CII is a better buy over-sampled 7k but u need to deal with Rolling shutter. A7CII also overheats but not as much.
8:14 The Cannon Cripple Hammer scenes always crack me up. 😂

Did they ever make a evf for it?
What setting you have for video ? Flat ?
I have the same problem with a similar pullover sweater. You have just provided the clothing industry an opportunity to install a whisker guard improvement! I hope you understand how you are helping to make life better for the bearded ones!
or just using smooth material inside bear zobes (e.g. lether insert)
That first shot is the cinema! Beautiful image!
I have to admit the blackmagic pocket cam with the Pannyboy Leica 25mm was looking glorious.
You didn't mention the Sony X3000! Loved this video. Even though I do photography, I enjoy hearing your overviews and analysis. And, of course, the humor. Have a great week.

i love how much i learn from your videos about cameras. most other channels are like, oh this camera is a beast or that camera will change the world.
Yeah, and its fun to see from the future some 'leaked news' or 'predictions' (as a joke in Kasey stile I usually wanna say " I'll predict yor mom, vlogger").
Sometimes I cry from Toneh reviews where specs are no near real ))
This first frame is awesome Casey
Seeing as I am just a peasant..... will carry on using Pana AG HMC 151 £100 + £45 for 2 batteries... For which I am grateful...
DJI did it with the Pocket 3. Hard to beat for TH-camrs.
That last shot, when the truck passes behind you....the 3D pop was so crazy, it looked like a green screen👀✅
the last shoot by sony and zeiss is beatiful
Overexposed by 15 stops but not bad :)
This episode was informative AND entertaining. You are a genius.
Love your work. The beard-pinching sweater is brilliant. The Canon hammer is brilliant. Keep up the great work, sending positive energy from Sweden :-)

Thumbs up for S-Cinetone. Seems to be pretty forgiving 😁
BEST TH-cam VIDEO EVER MADE!
Z30 really tempting
Get the Zf, it's glorious. 28mm and 40mm lenses are old school element counts too!
colors in that opening shot look fantastic
You are so creative and funny!
I'm glad you brought three crameras for this video!
love that opening shot.. great composition.. love the stone wall..
the Black Magic always looks cinematic without even trying, though

i was more laughing than listening :-) Great Video again! Regards from Germany were we have even bigger castles and a better sweater.
From canon i would say the rp because i got it for only 500€ open box and paired with the new 28mm 2.8 its pretty compact ! My second camera is the om system om-5 which is beautiful,compact,c4k the only problem is that doesn't have usb type c connection

I just got the Sony ZV-E1 after using Canon for past several years with external battery (r5c) and cages etc. Sony lens and body options are amazing.
everyone focused on specs. I'm impressed at the ability to disappear out of the shot and no one takes off with the camera. That would be cinematic footage for us. Frustrating for sock/sandal boy.
Love my zv-e1. Let me send it to you to borrow for a review. Fwiw, I still prefer active stabe over dynamic active for most scenarios.
I know you love slow mo and for your use case I do find it funny when you use it. But for most people making youtube videos I feel like the S5 ii hits all the boxes yes it crops in 4k60 but for the money it's hard to argue against since it does everything else so well.
ZV-E1 is honestly my best purchase in 2023. This little camera with a 20 f1.8 keeps on delivering.
Ha! You got me good with the line about flipping my mom around….😅

@@SKIDSnSTUFF Unfortunately it's not the case. Cause it got record limit and the most important for video does not have AutoISO feature in Manual mode. Sure if you do not care about 180 degree shutter you can get away with Aperture priority mode where it's supposed to have auto ISO. Not sure if got Olympus LOG.
But lately there was olympus cashback and you could get OM-5 at the prices of EM5 III brand new ... hope there will be another cashback ... I find cashback kinda stupid, but what can you do :(.
@JoATTech oh snap, I didn't realise the OM5 got autoISO/M. I just been dealing with splitting the difference (with highlights/lowlights) on the EM5M3. Cheers for the heads up, it's worth the upgrade to the OM5 just for that.
Now if they'd just sort out their SlowMo picture profile I would want for nothing
@@SKIDSnSTUFF I'm 99% sure it got AutoISO in M mode, it's based on reading the manual myself :D, zero reviewers mention it :(, guess they are not aware it was a limitation before. I'm planning to buy used OM-5 (actually there is 1 in my Country) but I'm kinda waiting for Black Friday deals :D. If I get it next week I will definetely check it and maybe publish some first impressions video, cause I never had Olympus camera before :D
Recently received the OM5 and I'm blown away how many extra features and options have been added that no one mentions. Not only does it have auto ISO in M for video it allows exposure compensation which I had seen somewhere claim it did not. It does. It even has real slow motion now that records in which ever profile you have set, both flat and Om log.
I was bummed when noticed they took away video switch on the FN lever option (Edit: actually it does allow Lever2 position as Video Mode, but I kinda like this new workflow anyway), but they have actually just implemented the video mode custom button options in a better way, now allowing the FN lever to be flicked to "2" in video mode which makes the f and r dials into volume control and exp comp.
This thing is mint!
The R still be lookin good.
R6ii is the sweet spot tho for sure for professionals with the dual card
Yep agreed with the Om/Olympus slowmo frame rate forced over contrast, over saturated bullshit. Still dont understand why they do that but it NEEDS to be fixed
No love for Canon R3? Only three cripple hammer dents that I've found: No built in RF flash control, No focus breathing correction, No audio recording at 120fps.
My vote. Panny g9 ii. But I like their colors
Awesome background
I recently bought the R8, best camera ever! But yes, you need a second battery.
So of all of those, seems overall it’s probably the ZV-E1 that’s the sweet spot? - tiny, 4k60 no crop, 4k120 minimal crop, AI autofocus, new colour science, all the features like loading luts, false colour, etc etc. I’m so excited about this camera, seems in a league of its own. Shitty LCD and no viewfinder but using an iPad as a monitor works surprisingly well.
But are any of them as good as a P40 Pro?
I've been watching all your work for the last 5 months and you are a treasure. 7 months ago in a piece "Dear TH-camrs: You're Not a Movie" you mentioned the Panasonic G85. I bought a used G95 two weeks ago for $600 and have already spent $1500 on 4 lenses, ND, Black Mist, and Glimmer Glass. I am quite pleased with everything and feel I was able to make these good decisions mostly due to your tireless work, experience, and insight. So I am curious why you only mentioned the Panasonic S5II and G9II in this piece.
Phase detect.
I am drawn to buying a second hand X-S10 like lice is drawn to a cheap brothel even though I have a G9 (i) and I love it's ibis (since most of my videos consists of chasing a two year old around). Talk me out of it!
He can’t, XS10 is the best camera at its price
The pro-mist greasy haze really does not compliment Sony's flatter dynamic range at all. I feel like I'm watching you from inside a plastic bottle. 😂
The Zeiss 3D pop is coming in strong at 5.6 though. I kind of like it better. It gives finer edge detail. 😮
So... you dare to omit Pentax? :D
Isn’t the Canon r7 weather sealed and the r8 not? The r7 also has faster shutter speed, no? There’s also no mechanical shutter in the r8. So the r7 should be better for wildlife?
If you are taking photos then R7 is better for wildlife. More resolution and a crop sensor. But for wildlife video R8 can do the same crop, has better autofocus, and can do 180 fps instead of 120.
Why is he mentioning photography things? It scares me.
@@cameraconspiracies "Shutter speed" more like "Shut your mouth speed".
The ZVE1 was 1800 here in Kuwait so I had no choice but to jump on it
What lens for vlogging on ZV-E1? 11mm APS-C one? or 10kg Viltrox 16mm F1.8? Anything longer will make vlogging impossible (with all these dynamic stabilization crops).
I feel you speechless because of the A9iii my G … game changer ? Imagine the a7s4 with the same features and more… oh booooy the 3DPOP is reaaaal !!
ZVE1 is definitely hitting the sweet spot for my needs. The photos are so much more beautiful than Sony A7IV. I didn’t buy it for stills, just for video, but when I saw the colors in some photos of wildflowers, I was blown away.
April on absolutely every camera video comments 😂. Howdy and keep on keeping on
i doubt that 12 mpx is better in any way for Stills than 34 mpx ... the colors dont matter if you know how to edit raw files
dam....he said he would flip your mom around....lol
I am confused between buying the sony venice or the canon c300 mkII. I am a wild cat and piranha photographer. Budget is 1300 bucks maximum.
a7c is like 1000 bucks best autofocus, best stabilization if you dont mind post production. if im not wrong the a7siii your just paying another 1000 bucks for 10 bit instead of 8 bit. am i missing something there? and why choose the zve1 over the ac7 when zve1 overheats.
Kasey! Voigtlander 50mm f1 Nokton for Canon EOS R system - check it out
lumix s5iix?
X-H2s when compared to the OM-1 just couldn't hold up for color science and something about the dynamic pop of images. I can't say what it is about the OM-1, but I decided to keep it and return the X-H2s. The added MP was nice, and there was more dynamic range potential. However, in real-world use, I never experienced the extra DR. It was strange. I was surprised. It could have been the lens options limiting me, but there you are again faced with the limitations of Fuji lenses. I'd love it if the OM-1 could shoot 10-bit outside of log, or use a profile that's not just a photo profile. Or at least if it let you customize the photo profile just for video mode. Like why not keep these separate? It's frustrating. I suppose you could customize a photo profile and just use that for video, but it seems an extra step you shouldn't have to take. I notice that 4K is sharpened more than photos in the photo modes used. So you have to dial the sharpness back in photo profiles if you select them for video. I use vivid a lot for landscape and wildlife, but it's too sharp for that purpose. It's 0 point sharpness is much more intense than the 0 point in the "natural" profile.
Thanks for the info because I have the OM-1 but was looking at the X-H2 to try something new. It’s just gas.
@@tobiasdavid3096 I think the X-H2 might be a bit different as it has a completely different sensor than the X-H2s. I do think we all experience gas quite a lot though. Changing camera systems is a pretty big deal. So it's something you have to be sure about.
What about the A9III with the global shutter.
I know you said that nobody needs 6k but i have needed to crop into a shot so much, so many times, and that messes up with the delivery of a 4k end material, which would only matter to someone with a 4k monitor? Also I watched a 6k vs 4k comparison of xs20 footage and you could almost see that there are less digital artifacts on the 6k, but very slightly...
I want to make a compilation of all the random names he comes up with. A lot of them ends in -punch for some reason :D
It would've been interesting if you'd added a decent 50mm prime to each camera. I'd love to see which ranges remain "sweet" when we look at the price of their lenses.
Do you wonder if any of your YT videos have ever made it to a boardroom screen at Sony or Canon? I would bet they have. Hari Kari is not a person hanging out in airports passing out flowers!
a6700 sweet spot. Best sony APS-C sensor, 10 bit, 4k/120p, IBIS, EVF, lightweight, nice grip, best AF for $1400. FF is too big setup and too heavy and too expensive. On sony APS-C i have 70-350 super lightweight telephoto, cheap and lightweight prime 1.4 lenses, and so much choice in lenses.
What are your thoughts on the new a9iii? I dont see 6k worth of camera,but what do i know...
why hello mister castle flower, nice having you on the show
Man I was so pumped for the Panasonic S5iiX deal a few weeks back to finally shoot FF in a different lens system than my 6700, but now you got me second-guessing if I should have grabbed a ZVE1 instead
You shouldn't be.
The sweet spot for me is an old g85 lol, mostly because I can't afford to buy something more expensive atm
It's a great camera though
Left lapel zipper for the WIN!! 🏆 😂
Sweet spot.....my phone ! 3 focal lenghts , slow mo, good stab, good auto focus, 4k , the rest don't ask I don't care, it is all auto so it is just what I need for crappy videos !
3D K-POP‼️
STUNNING 😹
Sony A9 III is the sweet spot =)
Sony Update for A7S!?
yes.. ZV-E1 is that boul..!!! ill do 40 minute takes with it at a pop,, no problems.. no overheating ever..
its funny.. i got into cameras at a young age.. maybe at like.. 15. back in say 02-03.. filming skateboarding with friends.. we used the rich kids Sony VX1000.. and that was like idk.. 480i and we thought it was the best.. then in college.. freshman year,, we had Panasonic DVX100B and HVX as the standard.. with 24p and 1080i (i think.. might have done p) 'CCD chip as well.. then, sophomore year, all the cmos DSLRs came out with 1080p and shallow focus photo lenses.. Canon stole the show.. so when we started with the RED One.. we thought.. oh , do we really need 2k or 4k.. isn't 1080p enough... lol,, well.. i swore 2k was sufficient... but think of the old monitors we used.. now with a 5k iMac.., 4k feels like a must to me.. and I actually prefer 6k at this point if optional.. but now,, I can safely say.., I would never need anymore resolution than 6k.. latitude and color science is where its at honestly.. but yeah, 1080p just ain't doing it for me these days..
We are waiting to know what's your thoughts about the REVOLUTIONARY SONY A9 III.
$519 US, Pocket 3
My eyes are fixed on that R8. I heard there is a third party battery extension grip for it.
I hear rumors of a Lumix G100 mk 2. I don't know if that will be a thing and don't really believe rumors usually, but I was thinking about it and that would kick ass with phase detect... Though if it doesn't have IBIS like the mk 1, I dunno.
i just cant do those canon cameras. especially second hand. that overheating is a big deal to me. a camera not working is probably a big deal to most people lol. r8 is a big no from me :( as much as i love canon cameras otherwise
R8, just walk around with strap of 10 batteries like Rambo
for canon, r6 mark 2 is sweet spot
Where's your A7S III firmware update video? It was announced hours ago!
What about s5m2X????
6k+raw+prores+ c4k+4x3
Canon XA50 is the closest ive found to the perfect camera for nature videography, its got alot going for it but no slo mo... even at low res :[
I was so tempted by the ZV-E1. Top image quality for great value. Definitely the Sony sweet spot.
Ended up going FX-30 once they went on sale. Mainly because FX-30 has a fan and can be run confidently all day for live production. No SDI but the full HDMI port is nice vs the small ports that break. Great autofocus. Not the greatest stabilization, better than some. Catalyst browse is a miracle, but you lose the 10 bit. Sony requires a subscription to Catalyst Prepare to output files in 10 bit.
DJI Osmo Pocket 3
The camera with the biggest sensor that also fits into my jacket pocket.
@@martiniustollin If I had the budget for it, sure.
Why did the guy replying about BM get his reply deleted! Something isn't right here...
Well my friend, I think you're gonna have to change the title of your introduction song to "Ive finally found the perfect camera" with the Sony A9III launch. I mean, if it's in your budget.
It's worse than my A7S III in most ways for video, you hit your head? :)
For me, R8 is a no go. Too little battery life, not enough stabilization. ZVE1 is also a no go, because i want that view finder. If it at least had a crisp screen, then I would consider it, but sadly it has a potato (probably the worst screen of all modern cameras).
So it leaves me with either a G9II or a S5II(x). I'll likely go with a latter simply because I don't care too much about slow motion, but I really do want a stellar low light performance.
Canon digital stabe is better than most cameras IBIS.
it does feel like a prerelease or beta release.. hence the hammertime.. they all have shortcomings I feel the frustration that CC is dealing with.. someone mentioned Z8 Z9 thats the wrong use case altogether.. way overkill. The Z30 also feels like an unbaked release.. they are just product cycling.. be patient they said.. the sports action offerings all seem gimmicky at best..
An A1 firmware update with Focus Breathing Compensation, Animal Eye AF in video, PreCapture and Focus Stacking...
sony doesn’t know words like firmware, kaizen, etc.
A7III Global shutter 960fps focus stacking 10 bit log waveform pseudocolor with free firmware update. Ok, just fix wireless stack vulnerables up to date, 2 years no even bugfix update...
Still no animal eye AF during video for A1 & A7Siii...yet the a7C got that firmware update in Dec 21’ that gave it that ability 👎🏻👎🏻 Sony
LUMIX G9 still goes so hard for cheap.
