Sony Xperia 1 :: THE SMARTPHONE that will change PHOTOGRAPHY
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 29 авг 2024
- The Sony Xperia 1 is the latest from Sony and represents a collaborative reboot of their smartphone lineup. Bringing all of Sony's electronic devisions together including Sony Alpha, CineAlta, Bravia as well as gaming and high end audio - Sony are using all of their strengths to develop a smartphone that will compete on the level of the iPhone, Huawei P30 Pro, OnePlus 7 pro, Samsung Note 10+ and other flagship phones.
The phone features a 6.5", OLED, 4k HDR display, 3 cameras that are capable of Eye-AF, HDR recording in 4k CineWide 21:9 video, and can render in 10 bit 4:2:2. This is a contender but how does it stack up?
This phone is the one to watch. It features a unique design for a smartphone and is capable of not only incredible stills, but is the best video smartphone on the market.

This is so weird, you were supposed to review its camera capabilities, and yet you ended up reviewing the whole thing and your review was way better than other actual "Tech" RUclipsrs. You were so honest.
I'm new to this channel and even though I don't know much about camera's (a lot of things you were talking about just went over my head), you still made me subscribe.
I hope you continue doing these kind of videos...
I've been waiting for one of the photography channels to notice what's happening with Sony phones. The xperia 1 is a beast.
@Test86 One4 sony is overpriced because they included the wireless headphones for the price
@@icewallowcome_daily9802 sadly that's only apply in some region like US. But most part of the world don't get that kind of bundle. I bought my Xperia 1 for around US$950 in Hong Kong and didn't get any bundle like that. But still, I'm very satisfied with the phone
@@albertacesantosa416 Got the headphone bundled in the UK.
I have this phone .and it is a massive Upgrade on my iPhone 10 .
I had been using iPhone since 2010 when I had iPhone 3gs. I moved to Sony Xperia 1 now and I am loving it.
Smartphone Reviewer: Sony Xperia 1 is bad especially post processing.
Camera Photography Reviewer: Camera on Xperia 1 is good and post processing is good too. Video App is also good.
See the difference 😂
I know, Buy the S10 because it is supposed to be better, and in automatic mode if it is better, but the RAW is virtually unusable, limited dynamic range, shadows and highlights unrecoverable. Sony sensors are still far superior and it is sad that no one takes it important in the smartphone market.
@@ES-qy2ju because people took photo to upload it on Instagram not edit and use that RAW images
@@RivandaBakhtiar no, specially if your Instagram is photography oriented...
@@RivandaBakhtiar i do that all the time
RAW is just way better
It's obvious that this phone is just for professional user
It’s a camera, that can make calls.
Your video stopped me from pre-ordering an iPhone 11 Pro. Thank you!
Me too
If you're a regular smartphone consumer, if you use your phone camera as a point and shoot, if you don't have time or need to edit your pics and videos - get the iPhone 11pro. Seriously.
If you'd like to fiddle with photos, vids, editors , then, get the Xperia 1.
You won't regret it. I love this phone. Highly underrated.
Xperia 1 also excellent for emulator gaming which a iPhone 11 Pro can never handle. I'm testing Dreamcast, Gamecube, Playstation 2, PSX, N64, Sega Saturn games on it. Most games are running smoothly.
You know what Sony is missing under their umbrella to make this phone really work. A good battery division.
Nah. See if youre not a sony user you wont understand, but sony has some of the best when it comes to batteries and power usage for their devices. Ive used an Xperia before and when you think oh its a smaller battery compared to other devices. It actually lasts longer than those devices. Im talking flagship comparisons.
They need a product that doesn't break. They are nice when out of the box, and that's it. They will break without you even touching them.
@@OneDabMan And what makes you think I haven't used an Xperia, kiddo? Fastest battery degradation speed out there.
Sony had great battery life in the older phones but in theree recent phones it really was a problem
@@youpa my z2 is almost 5 years now. fell multiple times, display first. no damage at all.
You can never really go wrong with Sony.
I have the sony xperia Z5 .. It lags like hell now.. It is almost useless.. The only thing good is the camera. But the phone heats up while using it and turns off the camera automatically.. I hate the phone. It was their flagship
@@snadarsh33 it's the processors fault , the snapdragon had a problem with heat back then
Well I bought the sony for 800 dollars and my one plus 5 for 466 dollars at the same time.The sony is unusable now and oneplus is more faster than the day I bought it.. So I will never go back to Sony again
@@snadarsh33 okay well thats up to you but dont forget that the oneplus 5 had sd 835 and released in june 2017 while the xperia z5 had sd 810 which was probably the worst chip snapdragon ever made , also the xperia z5 was released in 2015 so you can't even compare between the two .
@@darksoul5149 Hmm...Damn... So sony sold that phone for 800$ even after 2 years... 😭
I too was a long time iPhone user until I changed to the Xperia 1. I love this phone! It shoots great video and can take awesome photos. I really don’t know why there’s been so much negativity about the camera. My only gripe is I can’t shoot 60fps in Cinema Pro but maybe that’s because the app only offers 2k and 4K. I’d be happy with 1080p if I had the option to shoot at 60fps. Regarding wireless charging, personally, it’s lack of doesn’t bother me one bit. Putting the phone on a wireless base to charge means you can’t pick it up and use it whilst it’s charging and I’m pretty sure it’ll be a lot slower than charging via usb.
Check LG phones. Quite cheaper than this phone. Yet great in creative photography.
The phone does shoot 1080p at 60fps
@@SupremelyBX not in Cinema Pro though.
@Steffany Santos I doubt that. But I also acknowledge that my LG power adapter malfunctioned after 6 months, exactly when it got out of warranty, and the LG G6 died in just a year and a half after I bought it. All this despite the fact that I used it for photography, RUclips, and emailing only. No gaming! Don't different regulators check the quality of these products?
@Steffany Santos what about the mid-range phones, which are neither expensive nor cheap, coming from China? I guess that this is the mid-rangers' time. They're pocket-friendly, but do provide you with a nice experience. I don't think I'll ever be able to buy an Apple or a Samsung flagship phone😕. They're so expensive 📣🔊! The mid-range also reminds me of the middle path in Buddhism: neither too harsh nor too lax. Moreover, China seems to me be on an innovation spree! What Chinese do today, the rest will do tomorrow.
Typing this from my Sony Xperia 1. If you're on the fence, this phone is no joke. You won't regret it. 👍
That moment when Sony decides to put 10 bit 4:2:2 on their phone instead of their professional mirrorless cameras
haha, ironically
likely sony still worry if their camera alpa will eat fs-series camcorder market
Obviously it'll be a horrible version of that format. Be serious..
@@4partmedia no?

Not?
I love Sony Xperia. Have been with Sony mobiles since the Ericsson days.
Me too
I've been them with since they were Ericsson :) Who had Smartphones years before Apple! :)
Cmd j5
Cinema Pro app update will feature clip cutting and other improvements so that's a tiny step into right direction.
Great to see you Mr. Forbes! If there is someone that I know can talk objectively about cameras and camera phones is you. Yes, times are changing and I'm glad that companies like SONY are taking notice of the changes. Yes, SONY digital cameras will keep on expanding but the easy accessability that camera phones provide the average person is worth investing on it. Anyway, thanks for loving what you do Ted Forbes and thank you for sharing so much through your channel!
I just switched to this phone after having the iPhone X for 2 years and damn what a huge upgrade!
Does it make phone calls?
@Andy Roo 🤣💯
They didn’t buy Ericsson, they had a joint-venture with Ericsson (creatively named Sony Ericsson) and bought out Ericsson a couple of years ago. Ericsson still exists as an independent company focussed on mobile network infrastructure.
Liked the video though 😁
Found my next phone! I have my Huawei P8 for more than 3 years now, probably time to change it haha
Thanks for the review!!
We don't need phones that are made unique and different. We need phones that have solid OS, phones that last and are serviceable.
Sounds like you're describing iPhones.
💯💯💯 I’ve been waiting for a long time for an OS that was as good as the one on iPhone 5. I could not care any less about all these flashy new tech features if daily operation is lacking.
@@berkeleygang1834 Yeah. I don't know ANY other company that honors warranty worldwide, has multiple service centres virtually everywhere in the world, and provides original parts to 3rd party shops for repairs. Got any companies in mind?
This phone isn’t for you, then. This phone, like many flagship phones from other companies, is appealing to photographers and videographers, people that like to see improvements year over year.
Great video. I too have the Xperia 1, and I love the quality of the image/video it produces. Too many people, reviewers included, forget that great photography is more about capturing a scene in it's natural state, versus adding all this post processing to make the photo Instagram ready. I am huge fan of how the Xperia 1 takes natural looking shots. In some cases, the quality reminds me of my A7iii. Glad you highlight this in your review.
I do have a question though. I am a newb when it comes to video editing. Could you explain what you meant by having to apply a LUT or convert the BT2020 HDR 10 vid to REC709, and why this needs to be done?
Bravia + Walkman + alpha + playstation = best smartphone ever. Make it happen sony!
Bravia tech is already there, with the displays! I don't know about the playstation, though. The Xperia Play was a bit of a flop.
Xperia1 = 4K Oled calibrated screen + DSEE HX, LDAC, Atmos + dynamic vibration + the support of Dualshock 4 + PlayStation 4 remote play.
Well just wait for the new dedicated PlayStation NOW applications and you will have all you want on the go.
However even if they do the bedt about audio, about hardware it is not possible to bring the quality of Walkman or the phone would be fat as a power bank 20 000mah 😉
This phone is a beast you can buy it with no regret.
I'm an Xperia Z5 user , I like that it is waterproof as well. And quite sturdy and robust. Video has nice stabilization. It's probably time now to upgrade, so this review is so much helpful! Thanks!
Back in the early days of digital I bought Sony-Erricson phones primarily to provide a portable camera. They always did make the best camera phones. These were certainly not smart phones; sort of candy bar phones I think they were called. I used to increase the image by a few percent to store images at 1800x1200 or 6x4in prints. I still have the images today in my annual folders and they still look impressive on a monitor ;-)
Interesting to see how the Sony compares to the new iPhones which are released tomorrow for imaging and photography.
So, how exactly is this going to change photography? I’m hearing a lot of praise for the device, a lot of features that make it seem like a decent phone and camera, but I’m not hearing how this changes anything. It’s just yet another iteration of a smartphone for all I can tell.
@tyvek05 Thats impossible. A small lens on a phone can't matched against a large DSLR lens.
ibookje to YOU! unfortunately consumer digital camera sales are on a slow decline as of late and that’s because of cell phones... smh
Well physics is something a smartphone can’t change! Until the day a medium format size sensor with the bigger pixels sits inside a smartphone! Then ... maybe! And for us d dinosaur that still like to print large a smartphone size sensor will never compete until an algorithm can replicate the tonal range of a physical larger sensor.. on a large print!!!
ibookje let alone medium format!!
Yeah, i'm not understanding, either. The headline made it seem as if there was some revolutionary quality jump, but i'm watching this now, and he says at the 7 minute mark that this camera is "on par with the iPhone." WTF? A third lens doesn't change photography any more than it does when you have interchangeable lenses on a DSLR. Any of the other 'features' this thing offers is the type of thing that shows up on a specs sheet, but no one who views your images will ever recognize as having had anything to do with those images.
i really appreciate the content you make. its not always the most popular but it is always relevant and important
Xperia also have night sight like Pixel in the manual setting, just change into 1 second shutter speed with stable handheld you will get the amazing image in low light photography seriously...
Both are technically different techniques.
@@davidletterboyz yes you are right...
I like Sony ❤️ Xperia 1 :) its a fantastic phone
it is Amazing phone. This review made me want to make a gift Xperia phone to my father who has 4 years old Oneplus X feachured quite weak camera for these days.
thank you for sharing.
My sony's befor sony xperia x compart and sony xperia xz1 and xperia zx Premium and xperia zx2 and now xperia xz3 goodt mobil and fast fotos Nice , 👍😊next xperia 5 😉👍
Now im buy sony xperia 1 im love it that nice 😍🤘
The Technology of Photography
Wow! This guy is natural, knows what he's talking about, very good reviews 👍
Didn't know we needed eye af on a smartphone. Literally every thing in the photo is probably gonna be in focus
This is the first non iPhone I ever considered. Love the iOS ecosystem but damn, Sony brought their A-game with these.
I moved over from apple and do not regret it at all.
Xperia 1 mark II has just been announced and Sony have adressed every issue You have pointed out! RAW support is there, battery is bigger, wireless charging is back and even headphone jack is back!
I'm very satisfied with my Xperia 1.
The AF focus is amazing useful
I’d like to see a three-lens pixel shifting equivalent that lets you get large print-worthy long exposure landscape photos from a phone.
I used to have the Xperia Z1 Compact. Great phone for the time. Great processor, butterly smooth with a flagship qualcom processor and an amazing camera. I agree with you about the camera button. It's was a game changer for me. Makes taking stills more natural (like a camera as you said) than what we have with iPhones and the rest of the smartphones. Than I just didn't understand what sony was doing, too many phones, too many mid-ranges and I just switch to One Plus and then iPhones.
You are the king of providing solid info in such a short amount of time. Gotta play it back at half speed to keep up 😂. Great vid once again
I don't think so. As small as the sensor on the camera is, it will not be as close as a professional dslr no matter how small and updated it is.
THIS PHONE is NOT going to change PHOTOGRAPHY. Period.
I think you've missed Ted's point. It's directed at content creators for Instagram and Facebook.
@@FLYRTA The Art of Photography?
andy sheader no but I’d sure like a photography phone versus carrying the canon g5x I just bought along WITH my phone 🥴phone photos don’t suit my need even for the local street fair with my grandkids 🤦🏼♀️
Well ok Sony. I'm planning on leaving Samsung after this Note 9 I currently have and I was leaning on the Pixel, but then you showed me this badboy ;) Now I've gotta think about it :)
Get the pixel. Despite the great Sony hardware, their software experience is reallllly bad.
Any particular reason why you leave the Note 9?
@@reldies5364 I actually want even less additions in terms of software for my Android experience. I feel like I'm swimming in mud by year two of any Samsung smartphone. The Pixel will give me the bare Android OS I'm looking for. I will miss some of the custom stuff Samsung does but I want to get 4 years out of each smartphone and if I can strip it back down vs loading a custom OS and voiding any support I feel like I'm more in charge on the Pixel.
@@BrianAndersonPhotography I get where you are coming from, at the moment I use an Iphone altough I am more of an Android guy I have to admit that I quite enjoy how much cleaner it is.
Nevertheless I think my next phone will be a Note because of the screen size, the pen and samsung DEX. I am interested to see how long it will smoothly work and how long it will recive updates, which is my main concern with android and especially with Samsung.
@@BrianAndersonPhotography get the Xperia 1, clean software and receives pretty fast updates considering it's not a Pixel. All you need to do is download Pixel Launcher from the Play Store, and you can download the Pixel icon pack from the same developer to get the same look on the home screen. It's about the same on the default Sony one either way. Xperia devices seem to have less hardware and software faults as well, looking at the frequency of Pixel 3 call failures.
As Sony is not taken real seriously (justifiably so) in the smartphone market, I'll wait a year when the Xperia 1 is available for sun-$500.
Just to nitpick: Sony didn’t ACQUIRE Ericsson, SonyEricsson was a joint venture between Sony and Ericsson. Ericsson later sold their part to Sony. AFAIK Sony phones are still developed in Lund, Sweden.
Theyve closed recently their Sweden office
Alvin Santos no they aren’t quite gone yet. There has been quite a few lay-offs in recent years and Sony is absorbing Sony Mobile into the mother company. Given the decline in sales of Sony phones I don’t think they will last long, but the office is still open. Maybe Xperia 1 will be a game changer for them.
@@mbee32k Sony phones are developed at the Sony Mobile headquarters in Tokyo, Japan. The Lund office does network & communications development for Sony.
@@ytlurker220 I didn't know that. Thanks for the info.
Good stuff Ted! Any chance we can get a full vlog in the cinema pro app? Would love to see the full potential with some color grading.
Jesus, i love the way you review! 😎😎😎😎
Sony is the best. But the problem is marketing, i love sony, superb fan. I think sony more Unit to be release and please put it back the Tablet series.
it sounds like ultimately, we need to wait for the next version
Wow! Those video features are awesome!
10bit 4:2:2 in a SONY PHONE while the feature is missing in their consumer cameras is representation of a disjointed electronics company.
What is the meaning.that sir thanks
@@jasonpatrickdeleon4754 he is just saying that this phone has better features that dont even exist in their 2000$+ cameras

@@WhySeeF what? I thought they are still selling on Malaysia.. Well I hope that they doesn't stop selling it on SG
@@fiandoperdana8385 yeah, our only hope to get an xperia is sg now. 😭
@@WhySeeF just go to any Sony centre, they still selling Xperia, brought my wife Xperia at Sony centre midvalley kl.
I think Sony doesn't want to step up too much of their smartphone camera game because they do sell those cameras to many partners and so they do not want to compete directly with them. It's the same thing with their smartphone release date, they announced it at MWC or IFA then released it 2 months later when its already too late. For Photography I think you should check out Huawei P30 Pro phones.
Hey Kevin! 😁
Fancy seeing you here. My experience with this phone was a very mixed bag.
Cinema Pro is tremendous in both daylight and low light, but does need a gimbal to get the most from it.
Images, it's very capable but it didn't blow me away TBH. Additionally, the stock video recording leaves a LOT to be desired, with 4K recording practically unusable with poor image stabilisation and overheating problems at just 4 minutes into a video.
Not a bad phone at all, but I agree with you that the P30 Pro is far more capable 👍
@@DaveWestMedia Oh my gosh! Overheating with Sony! How can I forget that? It seems to be a common trend with them, I remember when the previous XZ phones were sending Camera heating warnings, I thought Sony must have been fixing those by now.
LG allows raw image and same functionality in manual mode for both lens, wide and standard.
Finally we've got someone who gave a positive review about Sony Experia 1.Your professional review makes me want to own this phone...Feb next year'll buy it.
Wonderful phone man! I have it ✌️🔥
I'll have to keep Xperia in mind (but odds are I'll just inherit a well worn iPhone 7s in a few years). Have you spent any time with Huawei?
Watching this review with my Xperia 1 grey.. like it. Honest review to me and you did mentioned the pros and cons of Xperia 1. Instead just like other tech reviewer where just know how to bash on small capacity of battery. In fact, this phone can have a good battery life.
Very much appreciated your review on this phone. I’m not in the market for one but hopefully when I am there will be one that finally meets the photographer in me🤸🏽♂️
DxOMarK needs professinals like you..
Lolz or shall we say DXOMARK needs to just shut up and get their shit right lolz
DxOMark full of shits!
Sir
I think it's first review which is highly impressive, classic leading knowledge about camera technology
Eye af with the huge DOF of a phone camera is just hilarious marketing
You can definitely still tell when something is out of focus.
Second!
Great video, Ted
The price of a "heart" nowerdays seems to be as low as the effort of an argumentless and linguistically unelaborated applause...
this is a pure marketing video! I did not expect it to on this channel, but well, it is what it is. Phrases like I am affiliated, but I paid for this phone, rises questions - than they must paid you in some other way. Other point about wireless charging - again sound too much like a marketing - i.e. how does it affiliate to photography or your decision to switch from iphone? Would be so much more interesting to hear real and unbiased opinion, but after this video, i am convinced to stay sticking to my iphone.
Due diligence 10/10 haha...Great review, I highly suggest Huawei P30PRO...
Why the hell isn't Sony implementing those great TOUCH SCREENS in their cameras?... you know ... A great screen with good touch capabilities!?
... just not understandable! They have the tec in their own company and think... naaa nobody wants this good touch screens on a camera 🤯
... or just think of a camera with a processor this powerful 🤯
@@paulhancock No one wants a android interface we just want to use that god damn touch screen.
Money. Split the features in multiple models so you purchase multiple models. Get it now? Money.
@@GRJCLyon Not even the highest end models have a rear screen nearly as good or a processor nearly as fast as in their smartphones!
And the touch functionality is also way behind on the sony cameras!
I love my A7III and my a6500 but those features are just lagging behind 🤔
Thomas Schlüter the Sony’s are miles ahead of the Z cameras so I’d say that’s a plus. I say money because they want to make plenty of it but over the long term. If they gave us everything now, the old stuff would be obsolete and they wouldn’t have to produce anything anymore. Nobody will ever make the perfect camera. I do think the way society is going that phones will conquer real cameras though. And I mean that in the sense that people will not value and really need or want people to take their pics because their phone pics are “good enough”
I can't stop thinking of selling my p30 for an Xperia 1 or the new Xperia 5 that's coming out. Unnecessary change but I love Sony..
I want to see Sony do well because I have a Sony XZ1 myself and I know from experience that this thing is probably way better in some areas than the more popular phones of 2017. Sony has the ability to make great phones, but the fact that they signed that deal that blocks them from putting a fingerprint scanner in the power button in the US, and that their marketing is nonexistent doesn't help them. Sony could be in Samsung or LG's shoes if they just pushed a little harder for it, because Samsung phones are garbo for lack of a better term. I'll probably get flamed for that but I have my reasons.
I'm super keen to get this phone, just to see what kinda shots I can get out of it.
I intensely dislike cell phone cameras, not because the don't produce seriously good images and videos, but because of the total lack of photographers control over the process. I sometimes teach digital photography. I always start with the basics of aperture, film speed and shutter speed. There is no artistic, technical or creative input from the photographer. Also; I am privileged to to spend weeks in Central Europe every year. I am offended by tourists doing "selfies" in which they reduce a 600 year old church or a 200 year old bridge to a background
Sony Forever. 🇵🇭
That is definitely very interesting!
Me lo he comprado nuevo en pleno 2022 por 200€ y la verdad,me esta encantando.
Me sorprende la camara que es muy fiel a lo que se fotografia.
La pantalla espectacular igual que el sonido. Y si, la bateria no dura 2 dias,
pero acabo el dia de sobra. Un gran telefono para tener ya 3 años.
Prefiero este aunque tenga 3 años que un Xiaomi de 200€ nuevo. Buen analisis.
Would like to see a print from the camera before agreeing it may change photography- the over sharpening and back light hides a lot on camera phones.
Thank you for backing us up and telling the engineers what we need to see.
If there's any actual gripe that I have with the Xperia. All I want is the 4K 60fps with stabilization that the Note 10 + has. They have awesome contrast adjustment in their modules and Sony has the horsepower and the camera know-how to get it done
We love the Slow mo 1080p. The 4K HDR, the Cine Alta app.. but you are absolutely correct we need an ecosystem of editing power that will allow us to put it all together on the fly.
Xperia is going to be a game changer. I have converted Soo many friends and family to the Xperia and with each model, they are getting it right bit by bit.
Be excited.
Huawei phones does shoot raw dng files within its pro camera app
Huawei Co founded in 1987. World first digital camera Sony Mavica in 1981. Have nice Day.
the new RYYB color array make the colors look weird
Where are the photos?
I don’t think Sony missed much of a boat not including RAW. You’re talking about a relatively small group of people that even know what RAW is, let alone want to have it suck up all the room on their phone. It doesn’t sound like development dollars that make sense, even if many are making their phone buying choices based on the camera. I’m a photographer, and personally wouldn’t turn on an option to shoot RAW on a phone. In an emergency (without another camera) it would be an awesome option, but not one I’d pay for. A lot of phones take great pictures, but I don’t think it’s going to change photography much more than it already has.
It's been 8 months and I'm still waiting for it to change photography. I haven't seen any samples from any of the users that have wowed me.
Lots of great films and photography coming from cameras like the Samsung S10/S20 or Huawei P30/P40 but nothing on the Sony yet.
I don't really understand this review and why you glorify the sony xperia 1. That smartphone is in no way especially good, just what you would expect from a flagship in 2019.
YOu have listened to much on those reviewers that always shits on SONY... XPERIA 1 is a really good phone and and is worthy of much more praise than it actually getting.
Eye autofocus and 10fps... only phone that does that. And the video recording capabilities are amazing
Can't believe I've been following ted for over 10 years. This makes me wonder when will he bring back his music? I miss hearing Ted's self produced music over the videos. (Also, THANK YOU SONY FOR A DEDICATED CAMERA BUTTON!!!!!!)
Are they now competing with their own camera’s ?
6:02 that’s such a valid point though - i feel like if someone’s looking to buy and justify spending money on a phone like this with three fricking cameras, they’re interested in photography in some way, so maybe RAW across all three platforms is worth the extra amount?
*or rather, camera lenses
Sony has very quietly been innovating quite a bit in various areas imho. Most people just have not noticed yet......but Sony is certainly working on some very interesting stuff.
And the Xperia 1 is a criminally underrated phone.
Cheers Ted, I'm getting a Pixel 3a (second hand) and have the Pixel 2, and again flagship phones from the big 3 are all good, I don't think Sony have enough clout to take on Samsung, apple and google like they have with canon nikon fuji pana Olym etc in the camera world, but as long as the consumer gets Pro's and not Conned, we could all be happy. Thanks again Ted
In case you were confused, like I was, he is saying "Eye AF" and not "IAF." Took me too long to figure out what that was;...
Thinking im about to change my iphone xs to Xperia 1 🤔
A photography tool? A new gadget for tech heads.
OK Sony alpha gave Sony cell phone some love when is Sony cell phone going to give Sony alpha some love with a interface put and operating system in the camera to give you easy functionality
Hello. I gotta hand it to ya, ya got a lot of helpful tips. I enjoy photography in my spare time. I also like to play the guitar. Don't you also have another channel that features your guitar work? Did ya do an Ambient piece called Music For A Wet Morning? I really enjoyed that one. It's a very inspirin' tune.
I am glad that this phone is vetting praise by some youtubers
I'm interested in your thoughts of the LG G9 in comparison to the IPhone 11 Pro & Sony
Hi. NEED HELP! Can I ask you something: After the updates would you swap a normal Galaxy S10 with an Xperia 1 in terms of just cameras and battery life? And why? Cheers.
Nice review. In the comparison section, I think that Huawei P30 pro would be an obvious contender. In terms of stills, it has both 5x optical zoom, ultra wide (also useful for macro), and raw support in camera. Put that into a phone with a in screen fingerprint reader and with a 40w fast charger included (70% in 30 min) and you have quite the package. Disclaimer I currently own the Huawei, and had it since April. Therefore bias may occur.
I always have a Sony phone for backup and shooting Manuel on it great phone and battery stamina mode and extra stamina mode
Just paused the video to catch my breath and let him rest
Love the review, thank you! So debating an Xperia 5 or a Pixel XL 3 or 4. And camera & video is the number one priority for me. Please lead me in the right direction..
Sony makes just fantastic cameras. I think they're missing the boat on not going full in on phone cameras.
Ted I don’t know to say this in a nice way. I wish your artists series videos and photography videos got more views then these ones so that you could focus more on them.
It’s a shame that the gear stuff gets all the attention.
William Payne
So true. I miss that segment of this channel.
In a way to talk about art is harder than doing reviews.
