I think this Camera is Sony´s Sneak Peak... Showing us they can still make great camera´s and they´re listening to us... I actually think they might do this with the a7s iii now... Make a New Body so they can give us what we actally want...
@@lost_places_global9008 I thought so too until I remembered all the times I had to put the camera high up or into tight spaces... It sucks so much, forcefully pushing your head against the wall to check your framing...
The best and only vlogging camera. Just perfect! Way more than any vlogger would ever need in this lifetime. And now, back to tilt up/down screen on any present and future “photographer” camera!
A very capable camera especially for its price point. Hopefully their other camera lines will offer the same updated features! I'm waiting on the next version from the a6600 .
For everyone complaining about A7siii I think it’s coming next month. It’s no coincidence that Sony have that offer until 28th June. I think this is a teaser of what’s to come in the more pro lineup. I think the A7siii will adopt a similar body style to this camera and include the flip screen too!
Jason, can you please tell Sony development team that we need a wider lens? 24mm doesn't cut it, especially with that additional crop on digital stabilization. Please tell them to put a 20mm lens in ZV-1 Mark II
Sometimes you just watch things for being informational. I don't need a VLOG camera at all because my life is boring. But still appreciate the new tech.
Looks pretty okay. Great review as always! 👍 My two cents here tho: 24mm for wide end is a bit narrow for vlogging imo, I wonder if it would’ve been too much compromise to put something like 20-21mm. That would set ZV-1 COMPLETELY apart from other 1” compacts like G5. we Also USB-C would’ve been perfect as most recent smart devices and laptops make use of it.
Michael Park the 24mm equiv is already using a 9mm actual lens. Less than 9mm is super hard to do without fisheye so it’s a physical limitation not a design choice
Would you recommend this camera for couples who vlog? In other words, does the camera still work well when framing two people instead of one? Awesome review by the way! Thanks for all the helpful info!
The 24mm isn't an issue because this camera is light enough to use a selfie stick with. I did that with the actioncams and they had close to fisheye lenses.
It would have been even better if it sported an ultra-wide zoom lens instead of a standard 24 70mm right? still good to see a camera made for vloggers!!
I own the a6400 for vlogin - do I need the zv-1? Don't think so 🙄 why I am still watching it?- because after 6 hours of editing it seems quite entertaining thanks to Jason 👍👍👍 good job bro 💪
Didn't make a review of zv-1 by myself, but as I saw Jason's there's no doubt I would choose the a6400 😉 wonder why?- pls check my travel vlog channel and you get your answer 👍
Be the first one to do a video on how to set your external audio mic settings inside the new Sony ZV1 Camera. Do you have to put it on manual, very low, etc. Great review.
I have been waiting for ZV1 since I heard about it. I love it for what it's trying to do but I feel like it misses some key things that are dealbreaker for me. *A lot of people are complaining about lacking wider angle lens but I think it's enough for personal vlogging purpose. *Not having USB-C that can power the camera while filming is very very disappointing because the battery runs out quick and micro USB is not fast enough for delivering power. *Not having a robust EIS is very disappointing since big part of vlogging is about going around and shooting things. *I wish it had headphone jack as well. *I was also really wishing for 60fps option for 4k. *HDR mode would have been really nice in combination with face priority auto exposure. *I also think it's priced too high. I was hoping it would be around $500 realistically speaking.
Everyone: asking for Sony A7siii Sony: We going to rip you guys to buy A7iii until we had enough competition from others to finally develop the thing that you want
Edmund Teh that’s only true for a certain niche of media producers. There’s still plenty of work to be done and Sony is dragging their feet. Another lame point n shoot that no one was asking for. Meanwhile, Panasonic and Canon are listening.
Hey! You convinced me to get A6400. Now, I don't know which Sony I have to buy. ZV1 or A6400? I want to film cinematic at the same time to vlog. Which of which you can tell as all in 1 camera for my need? Kudos!
Haha, nice review of the camera Jason vong. Sony sure made you, fro knows photos, potato jet, kai W and others all released the review videos of the ZV-1 camera at the same time! Tell them to send me a camera for review as well. :)
Cool. I'm not a fan of the 24mm on the wide end, but it's not a bad basic camera. I just think it's too expensive for it's sensor size, and it's not a standout camera for me. But to each his own!
@@dylan-nguyen Well, that's a subjective question because this camera might have everything that a person desires for vlogging that no other camera offers. But if I were into Vlogging exclusively, the Canon M50 with it's Kit Lens is a larger sensor than this camera, and it's at $499. It's also got the ability to change it's lenses, so I can go wider or zoom closer than this camera should I want the ability to do that. Plus Flip screen, dual pixel auto focus, Digital stabilization, 4K (though the autofocus is not as good in this mode), Mic Jack ability to adapt EF lenses and use almost as a full frame camera with a focal reducer...I can go on and on. It gives me options. BUT, I'm the type of guy that likes to dial in my settings. The ZV-1 seems geared to those that don't want to learn HOW to setup the camera, they just want to pick up and shoot, which makes sense. But you pay more for that.
Jason how is the low light and stability? I heard the stability is amazing. The frame doesn't seem too tight either. How long for recording on a single charge?
Hey Jason, Is there a way to disable Face Priority Auto Exposure? I went on a trip this weekend and was disappointed when the effective dynamic I got out of shooting a sunset was seemingly less than when my friend pulled out his iPhone 🤦🏻♂️ Also, glad to hear that you were able to take a break and start focusing on what you actually want to do~
Hey Jason, been checking out some vids about the ZV-1. Kai mentioned that the ECM-B1M or whatever it's called doesn't work with the ZV-1, but you say it does. Can you elaborate a bit one that?
Would you suggest this over an Iphone 11 Pro Max? I have a sony a6600 that I use as a studio camera and just sold my a6400, which was for vlogging and bought the iphone 11 pro max.
yes! i personally like having a dedicated camera for vlogging vs phones. Quality is much better and i dont have to worry about my phone running out of space.
You can live stream with this camera via USB tho. also compatible with older camera models like RX100m7 a6400, a6100, a6600, a7iii, a7riii, a9. Sony's new PC software will be available in July
Jason Vong hey, at least you were in AP classes, I was the guy asking you for answers 😂. But you make amazing RUclips videos and content, Jason. You’re the reason I bought an A6100 so I need Sony to send you a cut!
Now at last the Flip Screen. Touch screen most likely in ZV-II and in next RX-100. In all probability they are testing the response for a7iv and a7siii. ZV-1 may be a preamble to them.
Hi Jason, how are you doing. I use Sony ZV-1, I just faced an issue while using at 4k 24fps the face/eye autofocus isn't working. Is it only with my camera or is it problem with ZV-1. Earlier, if I remember it correctly it used to work fine. Please advise some solutions.
Great video, I have the Sony A6400 with 16-50 OSS kit lens - want to know will the image stabilisation be better on the KV1 or my 6400 with an optical stabilised lens? plus would I be loosing photo / video quality (can't afford a gimbal as yet). thanks
Is this good for taking photos also? I'm confused.. I want to buy it but I'm not sure how good it's photo quality is.. I also want to vlog also... so what do you think? Is this also good for photography beside video?
The lense is not wide enough and the stabilization could be better. Actually if they had a wider view they could crop the video even more. They almost made the perfect vlogging camera. They are close though. Anyway most people are waiting for the A7IV, the A7SIII or IV and even the A7000!
Key features: Internal ND, large sensor, great AF, flip-out screen Key features missing: 4k60p, ultra wide angle lens, computational processing, touch-friendly user interface. Conclusion: most vloggers are better off stick with their phones.
9:53 Jason talks about having 200mm in his pocket was hilarious 🤣
Flip out screen!! hope this screen comes to the next A7 series!!
Hopefully this is the START! :)
I think this Camera is Sony´s Sneak Peak... Showing us they can still make great camera´s and they´re listening to us... I actually think they might do this with the a7s iii now... Make a New Body so they can give us what we actally want...
@@NoahPetek BS, Nobody needs flippy screen omg.
That´s why the a6300 is better than the a6400

@@lost_places_global9008 I agree that the flip up screen is kinda useless for non vloggers, but the ones that flip out are actually quite useful...
I really love how Vivien is in your videos more often now. Thanks for the review of the ZV-1!
“Your face when you said “Imagine 200mm in your pocket!” LMAO
Respect for putting your ad at the end 🙏
Great review, nicely done - Great camera for the social media/vlogger level shooter for sure. Great features on this !
The Sony A7SIII better have that screen that flips out like that.
The camera that will never be released?
@@steb0ne that didn’t age well.
Yeaaaa at last!!! Because the world needs MOAR vloggers!!! Yippie!!!

The non-stop video recording and use-while-charging thing will be the highlight of this, plus the PRICE!

still good to see a camera made for vloggers!!
a6400 is still superior for vlogging
Hey, we need a 4th audio option! Bluetooth connect to my AirPods for mic-in, and audio-out. Tutorials yes!
Never thought about that... Great idea👍
Thanks for the video. Very helpful.

@Bárður Joensen so i guess maybe new announcement in weeks or months after R5?
@@edmundtaiping good point, still hope they release it in June instead of a7IV
Thank you for making annoying square ads discreet! Lol so cool do it for the people. Subscribed.
Wow this looks like an amazing camera
I can't believe this camera is under $800! I fully expected Sony to price it at $1,200.
Without viewfinder no flashlight its not so small
It gives me a very vintage vibe with that well trimmed bush;)
uh oh lol
Can you do a video comparing the Sony ZV-1 and the Canon G7X MKIII?
Hey Jason, long time no talk! Glad to see you talk about this one. What do you think about using this as a webcam replacement for live streaming?
Such a good review that I just ordered it 😊

Yee I highly enjoy your videos bro. Keep them coming.
This camera is so cute love it
Wow! Its about time.
Great video man, I'm definitely looking to upgrade my vlogging setup from my MkV, it's such a pain to use, hope this one will be way better!
Definitely purchasing!

Wow. I love this!!! I have the A6600 but hate the bulk of it. This might replace my Rx100 Mark 6
sweet! this and the RX100 VII are two of the best P/S right now - from sony atleast!
A6000 bulky? Haha are you a midget?
now I know what I am getting from xmas! Thanks!
They need to come out with a multifunction hotshoe viewfinder. Put that on for photo mode and then add a mic for vlogging.
funny enough they have that for the RX1R so im curious to see if it works.

I wish the wind muff hot shoe thing had a hot shoe on top of the hot shoe! So I could mount my little light to it!
I got one. Now I have to learn how to use it
Petition to drop in your A7iii at a sony store and have your screen changed for a flip out screen ☝🏽
I have the Sony RX 100 VI , should I buy this one or no need to????
What do you think regarding specs ? is it better , worse or the
same ???
Philippe Dassonval for video this is better. You get an nd filter and f1.8. If you had rx100 V then no need to upgrade since V is better than VI
So glad I preordered already. Super feature rich. I hope a fw update adds some of this the the a6600.
