Chances are I dont have my aperture, iso or shutter speed correct which would be throwing out my exposure. Definitely the big challenge of shooting street manually! Settings for one shot might be completely wrong for the next.
I edit all my photos in Adobe Lightroom Classic. If I am on the go I will edit using Lightroom mobile version but thats on a rare occasion. There are some great alternatives such as Capture One and Affinity tho worth looking into before just going with the one I use. Each will do the job just in a slightly different way so try their trials before purchasing!
Hey, I really don’t know what to choose. I currently have a Canon 750D, but id like an upgrade. I’m thinking about Sony A7ii, Sony A6400 or the Sony ZV-E10. Could you help me out please?
Hey so a quick thing to think about is what you mostly do and what you WANT to do. If you are mostly photo and some video then look at the a7ii or a6400. If you are going mostly video get the zv-e10 and build up from there. Honestly tho the a7iii is a really all rounder camera and has a lot of improvements over the a7ii so Id even recommend saving up a little longer for a 2nd hand one of those if you are trying to upgrade to a faster system and making a jump to Sony. I have so many friends who are professional photographers still using the a7iii. Hope that helps!
My personal thoughts are to keep the kit lens. Use it for about 3 months of consistent video and photography then look back on your favourite photos and video to see what focal lengths you use most commonly and then invest in faster aperture primes lenses for your top 2 focal lengths. Video is tricky because I feel a fast aperture zoom lens is always more versatile than a single prime but that comes down to preference which you will learn with the kit lens over the first 3 months.
I would start with the kit and get a wide angle lens later bc If you buy the kit the lens is only like 100$ I believe but buying it alone is 200$ so get the kit and choose a lens later based on your needs
Hyy im getting Sony zv e10 with lens and a6700 body only for the same price which one should i bought?? Mainly for street, architecture photography and cinematic videos (not vlogs)?
It isnt ideal for such particular photography or recording. You can make it work but its def not going to be as easy as a better body that can take faster burst photos, shoot in tougher conditions etc... Id pair it with a 70 - 200 lens (making it roughly a 105mm - 300mm lens.
I think if you are planning to move to the Sony system and want to focus mostly on video with a small for factor and light photo capabilities then the Sony ZV-e10 is a good option but without know much about your work flow Id never flat out say its better for you. Your current camera can do a lot do just be sure the upgrade is because you find some kind of large lacking feature or features you need and that the move to a new system is important. Hope that helps!
Hand held its shaky even with the active stability turned on. Useable if you are walking smoothly and not running. Remember it will have a crop which can ruin any vlogging face shots unless you get a really wide lens to compensate.
I shoot manual. So my settings are always changing, since the ZV doesnt have many dials and switches I set my ISO to 100 when outside and 640 when inside. Aperture to 2.8 Shutter speed changed when needed
If its your first camera with interchangeable lenses then you wont be disappointed. Not having a view finder for photos will be annoying if you do mostly photography but video work as a starter you will really enjoy. Overall if you think you will be mainly a photographer then in time you will want to upgrade to something like the a6700 or a7cii(r) but if you are more a video worker you could look into following the zv-1 line or fx lines… if stuck in between evenly I personally love the a7iv or you could go bigger to the a7v or whatever is the newest camera in a year or 2 haha.
I honestly want a macro lens so badly! I don't know HOW good a POV of macro could look but Im here and willing to give it a go. Looking at the Sony 90mm Macro or the cheaper... but not as good? 50mm macro (its much cheaper haha)
@@NataliiaBlessingheartthanks! I know nothing about macro lenses right now so any advice is so welcome before I make my purchase... It probably wont be something I get until mid year or even spring time tho
@@troykentphotography For nature macro (insects, flowers, mushrooms, etc, etc) (and the best ones, prettiest flowers grow behind the fences or on the top of the trees, ahaha) longer lenses are better and comfortable to use. For food and product macro - 50-60mm, coz u can stand up close to ur subjects and also they won't fly away from u in fear😄
also u can shoot portraits with a macro lens, so focal of the macro lens in this case depends of lenses u already have and type of shooting u do or wont to try
If you want to get into video mostly than the zv-e10 is a great start. If you are more photo focused Id choose something else like the a6400. Assuming you are looking at a Sony camera that has interchangeable lenses and that you can buy brand new. (Nothing wrong with getting a first camera second hand and always worth considering)
Im still learning to colour grade my footage so lots to learn! I have a feeling I need to get a better monitor to show proper colours and light in my footage.
@@felippedemarchi6734 Thanks. If I went the canon route I would have started with the R50 as well. I just happened to have a mentor who shot Sony so it made it easier to be working from the same system. I do love the straight out of camera colours of canon I must admit.
That shot of the Mazda was way too good haha!
Thanks. I do want to do some more car photography.
Why are your shots over-lighted during the shoot before post-processing?
Chances are I dont have my aperture, iso or shutter speed correct which would be throwing out my exposure. Definitely the big challenge of shooting street manually!
Settings for one shot might be completely wrong for the next.
How do you apply filter on those pictures? are you using any app for it? thanks

@@troykentphotography thanks so much! Helped a lot! 👏
@@troykentphotographyjust subbed 😊
What’s the best lenses to use for it?
Is the kit lens good enough? Or should i just get the camera body, and a different lens? (Complete beginner)
My personal thoughts are to keep the kit lens. Use it for about 3 months of consistent video and photography then look back on your favourite photos and video to see what focal lengths you use most commonly and then invest in faster aperture primes lenses for your top 2 focal lengths.

Hyy im getting Sony zv e10 with lens and a6700 body only for the same price which one should i bought?? Mainly for street, architecture photography and cinematic videos (not vlogs)?
a6700 is leagues above the zv-e10 so if you can afford a lens to go with it you will be very happy.
Can i buy for Bird watching and Bird video recording.... sony zv e 10

Hey do you think the zve10 is a good upgrade from my old canon 650d?

What camera did you use to take videos? Thank you
DJI Action 2
@@troykentphotography Thanks! Bruuuuh 🫶🔥🙂🫡
What file format did you use raw or jpeg
I always shoot RAW. I like the editing side of things.
How’s the Image Stability in video?
Hand held its shaky even with the active stability turned on. Useable if you are walking smoothly and not running. Remember it will have a crop which can ruin any vlogging face shots unless you get a really wide lens to compensate.
@@troykentphotography thank you, I’m gonna look for other options i think.
What setting did you use to photograph?
I shoot manual.
So my settings are always changing, since the ZV doesnt have many dials and switches I set my ISO to 100 when outside and 640 when inside.
Aperture to 2.8
Shutter speed changed when needed
Sony is still the best camera in the market. I am using a7c which is still great. What lens r u using in this video?
I love the a7c! I also have that as my full frame camera.
In this video I used the Sony 35mm 1.8 (effectively a 52.5mm on the crop sensor)
Im getting the Sony zv-e10 it is good for photography? And videography

Hey! What gear you are using to record the entire POV video?
Just the DJI action 2
I want to upgrade to the action 4 tho for better night recording, this one doesnt hold up very well unfortunately
@@troykentphotography alright! thanks alot✨
Hi whats ur openion zv e10 😊

make the videos on 4K, the image quality it will get better
I have been thinking about trying out recording in 4k on the DJI action 2.
Why's the video so dark?
Im still learning to colour grade my footage so lots to learn! I have a feeling I need to get a better monitor to show proper colours and light in my footage.
@@troykentphotography colors are great for me, awesome video btw. I have a canon R50 but want to go Sony.
