Stumbled on this channel by mistake. Awesome video. I (as everyone else) only have a few remarks regarding the Z5. I (currently a user of Z1) would totally suggest you go and take a fresh look at the specs and then just re-edit the video with updated knowledge of Z5. Z5 doesn't have OIS it has SIS or DIS or SteadyShot (as Sony likes to call it). To shoot in 4k you need to go to the camera apps and choose 4k. Usually, as far as I have been able to test it (just note that I don't own Z5, a friend of mine does) it records superb and the SIS is out of this world (but these are just my thoughts). On the Z5 photo tips, please, just go to a forum or better yet, read what Sony's hired photographers say about how to handle the Z5. This phone is not for everybody. The S7 is. Its simple, point and shoot. You might not get the best, but it will be a bit better than the other smartphone cameras. The Z5 can only achieve its full glory if you know how to work it. On the bright side, thanks for clarifying that pretty much todays smartphones are getting better and better in terms of camera compared to a DSLR. A real eye-opener. Superb job on the quality and whole video montage. You just got yourself a subscriber :)
+Zidane Zidane and what about the expandable storage, and the water proofing and the battery, and the gaming speed? O and the super beautiful screen. Anyways would you rather have both things in your hand than having just one thing with everything in it? But it was a great idea, although it is not that suitable
+Juanjose Suarezborras this year's edge 7 is ugly as crap irl. Looks good in photos. The edge 6 is more balance device. 1+3 would be my choice out the 2, simply for os. Shame cm had to go as that by far is my favorite rom. Touch wiz is getting better sgs5 was it's peak of badness, but still shitty on comparison to cm, stock, sense, sonys, then we get to touch wiz and LGs, then the miui, in that order.
+Zidane Zidane but I don't think you could get into a pool and take some pictures. believe me, I've done it and it is amazing. and the SD card slot is amazing for when you need to get the work done
Amrit Shahi u can use auto mode in casual shootings. but if u wanna do some photography auto mode is not for you. every dslr has a manual mode and they are equally powerful. with some minor changes..
It is a stupid comparison. As a Semi-pro Photographer, I would say to uneducated people that the sensor does the job. The censor in the cheapest DSLR is still APS-C which is like 20 times bigger so it catches more light and detail, so better performance in low light. Now the only phones with "bigger" sensors are NokiaView 808 which had 41.3 megapixel 1/1.2 in CMOS sensor, which is still the biggest sensor put in any phone, the downside of the phone was its operating system and the way it processed the JPEG. The other bigger sensor on the phone market is Xiaomi Mi5 S (launched yesterday ) , which is 1/2.3, which is a lot smaller than the Nokia sensor but bigger than the rest of the phones. But still they are way smaller than 1" sensors and way too smaller than APS-C sensor. APS-C sensor is like a gold standard for the camera only if FULL FRAME sensor considered to be the Platinum standard lol Shoot a full frame once and you'll see the difference. Now all haters gonna come up with something saying that the bulk of DSLR is bad. Buy a tiny Full frame camera like Sony RX line. fixed lens like in smartphone but way too beautiful pictures.
He made a comparison, because there's a lot of people out there that actually believe that phone cameras can reach the same quality as DSLR or Mirrorless.
Yeah. I see that. Anyway the best you can get from a phone is to buy an iPhone and DxO camera. So you'd get 1" inch sensor with 20 mpx, which is good overall for everyday usage. They trick you with the aperture though. The f/1.8 is not the real f/1.8 on Full Frame. On full frame it would be really shallow, but you gotta consider the crop factor. On APS-C you take f/1.8 x 1.5 = around 2.7. On 1" it was way above f4. F2.8 is generally good for portraits on Full Frames.
DSLR always the best for Fotografering, I noticed that the Sony was close to the Dslr so, the Sony was better in natural colour. Samsung is just over saturated colours and who says sony x5 dosnt record 4k!
Is that so? The S6 could only do 5min if I remember correctly. Well the memory is going to be full pretty fast anyways. Also we are comparing a 400€ phone to a 750€ one, so it should be expected.
+Mikko Haavisto i have seen a couple of reviews showing the Z5 shutting down the camera during video after only a very short time , and it clearly is shown on the camera display " the camera is shutting down due to overheating " , do you find any problem like this or was it an isolated problem ??
The about 30 min limitation in mine is the overheating message as well. I guess it depends on the ambient temperature. Again, I don't know about Z5, because I have Z5 compact.
+Bashar Shehab you dodnt get my point dont you? i said actually OIS IS BEETER BUT SONY EIS IS OPTIMIZED THAN OTHER PHONE THAT USE OIS BUT HAVING REAL STABILIZER IS BETTER
+Laurensius Satya I got your point, but what I'm saying that I don't think Sony use EIS (gimme a source if you have plz), Sony is using Software DIS, I believe. and it's vetter than OIS in S6, G4, and IP6sP.
Look, camera expert firstly you did change the default resolution on Z5. It does pixel binning on 8MP which helps in low light so you didn't do it a favor upping the resoulution. It does not have OIS vids look like it has but no. It also has 4K recording. Learn more about the device you are reviewing. Come on a bit more effort please.
I use sony smartphone (not the z5) and i am not satisfied with the camera.... Come on man, get a life. Dont compare a DSLR with fucking smartphone man.
I think he did it on purpose what flagship from Sony from the z2 and up didn't have 4k recording?! The sensor found in the s7 is the same one used in the z5 and on top of that It's a sensory made by Sony themselves. I can't believe that this guy wasn't aware of the specs of the devices he's reviewing
only z5 compact 4k overheats and it takes at least 5 minutes, also who the fk is actually shooting 4k for regular video. 1080p is all you need especially when considering how much memory 4k uses
I'm glad I subbed when you're still under 10k subscribers. I think that number is going to grow exponentially if you continue to upload quality stuff like this.
Z5 does shoot 4k man and from your video it shows that the images from the Z5 come closest to the dslr yes the s7 has more pleasing images but that is because of all the in app processing But as far as I understand, your video is about phones coming close to dslrs and if I want to use my dslr for a shot, I'd like to be the person doing the post production and so the Z5 gives me more natural images to work with! Just my opinion
Videos like this were about to make me believe that I did not need to buy a DSLR camera, however, I did get the D3300, and I couldn't be happier!! I stopped taking pictures with my phone a long time ago. Eventho this comparison doesn't show the strong points of the DSLR, as soon as you zoom in with any phone, the picture looks like a watercolor painting. If you're taking pictures of a moving subject, you'll most of the time get really blurry pictures. If you're thinking about buying a DSLR don't hesitate!
I will start by saying I havent read all the comments so I dont know if this was said before. I own the Galaxy S7 and a Nikon 3300 (not 3200 but very close in specs with similar kit lens). Even though the S7 is very clear and produces very saturated and "eye pleasing" high contrast photos and video, the DSLR photos & video will always be the better option if you want a better looking final product if you plan on doing some post production. The S7 image data does not contain enough information to change or alter the images to a high enough level to get truly Pro results. The DSLR will always get you closer, even the cheaper cameras. Galaxy S7 also produces RAW photos and I have edited them along side Nikon 3300 RAW images and the bit depth of S7 images dont allow for the same amount of editing when trying to create a "personalized" look. I have no experience with the Xperia products in this review. This is my experience with the 2 different cameras. And there is a big difference in quality when you get into the pixels.... but if you dont plan on going that deep into it, the images and video are comparable on a very basic and newbie level.
How come the D3200 pictures are really low contrast and desaturated? Did you use the Neutral/Portrait Picture Control? If so, switch to Standard or even Vivid, and try again. While the S7 hands down wins over the Z5, the D3200 wipes the floor with the S7 when it comes to image *quality*. When it comes to how pretty the images are (which is a different thing from image *quality*), the S7 looks prettier because of the contrast.
With so much of the Z5 not done right, photos: auto? manual? default settings?. The 4K video part I understand as its hidden under camera apps within the camera options. Maybe the video should be pulled down while you redo the Z5 segments, re-edit and upload the new video.
Glad you acknowledged the missteps of the comparison. Not everyone would do that! Hope you can take a little more time with the Sony and see it's attributes ;) And sorry about the spam on my previous comment.. it was with the best intentions ;)
The Z5 and the Canon have similar colour tones and quality that tells me one thing the Samsung is far from realistic or life like. You basically just prefer the warmer colours as a preference. We are all entitled to our opinions really, even the video quality i could see the same thing. I would rather a camera produce more life like images or quality in auto mode with an option to twerk to whatever white balance option i want in manual. The s7 post processing is way over the top in my opinion. Another thing test the stabilization of the video recording, i have seen other videos that show the z5 as truly the king of smartphone video recording.
i do have s7 and d3200 and there is no compare!!!everyone put ideal lighting and no zoom photos to make the comparison and confuse the audience!the d3200 has the biggest sensor so it's without a doubt the best cameras especially in low light!also why don't you put the photos in a pc and zoom a little to see what happens
+nikoss1000rr Would love for you to make a proper low light comparison. Start shooting in the afternoon and take a picture every 30 minutes to see how less and less light impacts the two contenders.
EscapeSquad I have a xiaomi mi 5(it's equivalent to the s7), and planning to buy a used d3200 to record assembly and review videos...but I don't know if the d3200 is better for video then de phone. What do you think
@Darius K - z5 restricted to 1080p ? maybe you did not check the camera UI - its there just swipe on camera Apps its there together with the other camera effects . Also Z5 does not have OIS - it has digital- it is called SteadyShot- if you had only seen how it works ! it blows out all phones with OIS !
No one seems to mention image editing. The flexibility from the 14bit raw camera images vs the highly compressed 8bit Jpegs is night and day. Yes these new phones might have some pretty good image processing software in them but nothing compares the results from a well edited raw file. That's where dedicated cameras hold their own.
Your the only reviewer that's actually spoke the truth in my opinion in regards to the S7 Edge camera "low light" I personally think it's quite bad. Everything looks plastic. Day light photos are fantastic though. Subscribed. Nice job.
not very fair comparison because the point of having dslr IS manual mode, restricting that doesn't do a justice at all, so you should make comparison - what is the best quality you could get out of each camera using all their available power and options. On the other hand this is useful video for average consumer who will just use automatic modes anyway.
now what they don't mention is that the z5 camera comes in a way smaller package if you get the compact version than either of these cameras, giving it a unique advantage. Also, dedicated button
On any camera, actioning a physical button, or touching the camera unit, can add vibration. A timer controlled, or remote control trigger might be better. On my Samsung Galaxy s6, there is a very good voice command to start video or camera shooting. Voice activation is my preferred method.
Nice objective video, and I useally hate when people asking for that viewers use there links, but in this case I really appreciate the work there had gone into making this video straight forward and easy to comprihent, so If I should buy one of them, I would not hesitage to use your links, just as an plain thx for the work put into displaying the alternatives in an objective way...
Looking at the samples on 4:10, we know that the DSLR is the winner there, but comparing the image of the S7 to the Z5, I think the Z5 has a more shallow depth of field than the S7 if I'm not mistaken
hello my dear, can you tell me if the audio capture S7 features distortions when in very noisy environments Currently I shoot with a Lumia 830 and the quality is very good as the audio but I am looking for a more current smartphone. Thank you.
If you're still happy with your phone, I don't see any good reason to replace it. If your 830 is still doing a great job and doesn't disappoint you, I think you better keep it for longer. That's just my opinion. But if you want a good camera to match the greatness of your 830, I'd say Sony can do that
My brother has the Galaxy S7 and I have the Z5 compact and we compared the camera performance. I have to say low light photos with the Galaxy S7 are pretty good while my Z5 compact gives some grainy and washed out low light shots. However, my Z5 compact captures a lot more detail and the color accuracy is way better in normal (day)light. The colors on the shots of the Galaxy S7 are over saturated. Both have their pros and cons.
You do not know how to use your D3200... On a SLR camera you can adjust the settings a lot to achieve the desired result. You will never get the quality of a DSLR with your smarthphones The only advantage of the smartphone compared to a cheap DSLR is the video level (slow motion, 4k, 1080p to 60fps etc, face cam, focus and stabilization). On the D3200 you have a lot of scene mode, which change colours and contrast them quickly.
I've been using my Z5 compact to shoot all my youtube videos so far! Ok it's not perfect, but I don't feel like I've outgrown it yet - the image stabilisation is really good, and I like the vivid colours, considering I already had it so didn't need to go and buy anything, I'm pretty happy with it. Still pictures blow away my old compact digital camera too! (Which actually is a Sony also!). Not tried the 4k feature yet as I don't think my old laptop could handle the files!
4k for Z5 can be found on the additional camera apps, you should have checked first the camera Ui before saying it's limited only to 1080p, you also did not mention each video stabilization.
It always annoys the crap out of me when reviewers say. "I used the settings right out of the box." WHY? The camera has a manual mode so you can capture the best images possible, and if you're comparing it to a dslr with adjustable settings, why not put out the best picture each thing can offer? The xperias shine on manual mode, same with the galaxies. It is just a waste of a video in my opinion.
+Neville Nazerane what about people who watched the video and didn't read the comment.... why didn't he put some annotation about it.. I guess he does not work for Samsung, he's just biased by unconsciousness
Thanks for the video. Imho, any budget DSLR coupled with a good quality lens could beat all the current smartphones hands down. Especially in low light (/without flash) circumstances. When it comes to image quality, I think lenses are the main element that make huge difference. Megapixels are good if you will print poster size images (or to crop images to fit your purposes). Ps. 100 % crop would be more helpful in comparison of image qualities of photos.
You should be safe on what you´re saying or not say it at all. The Z5 does record in 4k, you just don´t know how to do it. You have to go to the camera apps.
One of the best budget cameras out there for impressiv night shots is the Olympus XZ-2 with 1,8f. You should've compared it with this camera. I mean if u zoom in on windows photo gallery you can go more than 100% and then u see something which u couldn't see before :)
No, phones cannot replace entry level DSLR, any photographer that uses both knows that right away. Phones have amazing cameras, but not quit that amazing yet.
I think you should've use at least a better lenses for the dlsr. try the cheap nikkor 35mm 1.8g or sigma 17-50 f2.8 and I'm sure any phone can't beat it's image quality.
Aboh BB maybe a bit of a strange question, but I own a d3200, bought it with an 18-200mm lens from tamron, and I was wondering if it'd be a good idea to buy a second lens, for low light/indoor/portrait photography. Do you have any recommendations for me? I prefer not to spend large amounts of money
I still own my D3200 and no phone camera comes close. the only skin tones that I've seen rival it has actually been the Huawei Honor 7, iPhone, G5 and Z5. Only now are the phones really getting toward being competition but are still quite a way off
The reason the S7's images are more visually appealing is because there over saturated that's why you prefer them, they pop out. The Z5 has much more realistic colours similar to the DSLR. This means the Z5 is clearly better. I don't get why all tech users are fanboying over the S7 its crap XD (My opinion)
its not the camera but its the person behind it look at pictures 50 years ago when camera were by film still look good saying that, no camera phone can touch a sh*t dslr.
Ryuga Law thats based on personal opinion and it didn't live to to mine and it seem most of others expectation as well. It's barely better than the z3+ and everyone expected more than that, so i guess it depends on what you were expecting from it
+Shineehh ` let's see, the best Camera in a Mobile for 2015, Waterproof, Classy and strong build, appealing Design, Great interface and fast software, no more Heating issues, and an all new 4k version of it. I see nothing disappointing actually... not that S7 is disappointing... but seriously, S7 is a 2016 phone, it should have had more features than the S6(if we wanna use your Z3+ e.g.)
im using s7 edge and im not trying to compare it to that but i guess we just had really high expectations for the z5, the 4k display isnt really a big deal since its only used when displaying 4k content. the waterproof is valuable to me personally but the camera was all that big a deal, there was some comparisons that didnt impress me too much. also battery life, maybe its gotten better now but a few months ago i hardbricked my phone and needed a new one and someone was selling the z5 for 400AUD and i didnt end up buying it cause of battery life
My bad guys. The Z5 does shoot 4k video
+Darius K ohhhh shit you gon fucked up boy
+Darius K Is that glowing stone thing on your table a lamp?
+Darius K Z5 doesnt have OIS.
+TheMist It does have DIS though. And at 1080p it's better than OIS.
+Darius K how many more 'my bad's in this video?
Stumbled on this channel by mistake. Awesome video.

Xperia Z5 having a dedicated apps to snap 4K video == oh god, this guy must be not trying to explore the smartphone before he do the review......
Phone are getting good, but let's not pretend they are close to even the cheapest dslr.
I use nikon d3300 and i dont like shooting that much from my one plus 2 as long as i have dslr nearby.
***** wrong, they never had them.what you should of said, which is true is ; For the average consumer the phone has replaced the point and shoot.
+Zidane Zidane and what about the expandable storage, and the water proofing and the battery, and the gaming speed? O and the super beautiful screen.

2 min silence for those people who are going to buy a s7 over d3200/d5200/d3300/d5300 and going to shoot in AUTO mode.
Manual mode of nikon d3300 is pretty powerful. Only begineers would use auto mode.
Amrit Shahi u can use auto mode in casual shootings. but if u wanna do some photography auto mode is not for you. every dslr has a manual mode and they are equally powerful. with some minor changes..
what do you mean? please explain , im gonna buy one
+The Real Lone Wolf if you wanna buy buy a dslr or mirror less with some good glass.
Swaniket Chowdhury but whats the problem with auto mode?
Digital image stabilization on Z5, not OIS
+Vince Satsong yes sorry my mistake.
+Darius K also it can do 4k. xperias have been doing 4k since Z2

Oh, definitely. Phone cameras have come a long way!
DxO camera is really good. It is also like the mods you get on Moto Z. Moto 's mods are cool.
hi, please advice me a smartphone with micro sd would be the best to film and see what i film on tv in the same time, film to 0.80cm of the objects
DSLR always the best for Fotografering, I noticed that the Sony was close to the Dslr so, the Sony was better in natural colour. Samsung is just over saturated colours and who says sony x5 dosnt record 4k!
i tried the s7 to but the colours does not match between the real colours outside same as the s6.
Even for their TV is the same thing, however if you are using Samsung devices or TV you will get used to this kind of fake colors.
Why would anyone stick with the default colors? Post processing all the way!
z5 does record 4k. My z5 compact can do 30min while other phones only shoot for 5 min.
+Mikko Haavisto while the s7 can shoot an unlimited amount of time in 4k ;) until the memory is full
Is that so? The S6 could only do 5min if I remember correctly. Well the memory is going to be full pretty fast anyways. Also we are comparing a 400€ phone to a 750€ one, so it should be expected.
+Mikko Haavisto i have seen a couple of reviews showing the Z5 shutting down the camera during video after only a very short time , and it clearly is shown on the camera display " the camera is shutting down due to overheating " , do you find any problem like this or was it an isolated problem ??
The about 30 min limitation in mine is the overheating message as well. I guess it depends on the ambient temperature. Again, I don't know about Z5, because I have Z5 compact.
Mikko Haavisto ok , thanks Mikko.
The Z5 has a 4K mode, but you have to change the camera mode
change the mode to?
+Neville Nazerane To 4K video mode....
Sushininja127 is it like a mode with a whole new set of features or just changes the resolution?
it's kind of a new mode, different than the recording mode, but it's basically the same, but it only changes the resolution of recording
z5 in colors is same with dslr but s7 is make a fake colors thats maybe good for Ordinary people but if need real camera buy Z5
+David Lanjeckt Well said. Z5 produce true to life colours. Samsung phones produce oversaturated images
+David Lanjeckt finally one person said it. yes you right. camera takes photos real colors of z5. but s7 not. thats why i love sony.
+David Lanjeckt finally, smart people
i think so too
David Lanjeckt 90% of people would say s7 wins, the camera is just more pleasent
*consumers
if you just used the superior auto in 8 mp (16:9) with the HDR, the lowlight photos on the z5 series we be waaaaaay better
overload of lack of knowledge in this video.
Xperia Z5 does shoot 4K, it doesn't have OIS, it has SteadyShot in 1080p which is far better than OIS.
it is eis. no ois still better juat ois that other phone have is not as good as eis that sony have.
+Laurensius Satya just*
+Laurensius Satya You can look for 1080p cam comparisons, Z5 vs S6/IP6s/G4 or whatever you want. The Z5 is better in stabilisation than all of those.
+Bashar Shehab you dodnt get my point dont you? i said actually OIS IS BEETER BUT SONY EIS IS OPTIMIZED THAN OTHER PHONE THAT USE OIS BUT HAVING REAL STABILIZER IS BETTER
+Laurensius Satya I got your point, but what I'm saying that I don't think Sony use EIS (gimme a source if you have plz), Sony is using Software DIS, I believe. and it's vetter than OIS in S6, G4, and IP6sP.
Your over all lack of knowledge of Z5 lost you a great deal of credibility in this test.
+bryronify yeah, this guy has no clue as to what he is doing.
+MrWalker1000 absolutely, so much misinformation, and 23mp low light shots, in 8mp auto it wipes the floor with S7
Look, camera expert firstly you did change the default resolution on Z5. It does pixel binning on 8MP which helps in low light so you didn't do it a favor upping the resoulution. It does not have OIS vids look like it has but no. It also has 4K recording. Learn more about the device you are reviewing. Come on a bit more effort please.
I found your channel randomly. Very very useful. great work.
Lol Sony z5 released in 2015 but still kicking all the way to 2K17!
I use sony smartphone (not the z5) and i am not satisfied with the camera.... Come on man, get a life. Dont compare a DSLR with fucking smartphone man.
lol this is rediculous z5 doesn't have 4k ? seriously the fanboi is strong with this one
It does have but Darius fucked up
even the z2 could record in 4k.....
I think he did it on purpose what flagship from Sony from the z2 and up didn't have 4k recording?!
The sensor found in the s7 is the same one used in the z5 and on top of that It's a sensory made by Sony themselves. I can't believe that this guy wasn't aware of the specs of the devices he's reviewing
He was so heavily biased and prejudiced towards the s7, worst review ever.....
THE Z5 HAS A SEPARATE 4K MODE
seperate and better I might add
How do you get to it? Does it overheat like the Z5 Compact reviews I've seen? And is low light performance in 4K still total garbage?
I havent used it myself but i know its there
only z5 compact 4k overheats and it takes at least 5 minutes, also who the fk is actually shooting 4k for regular video. 1080p is all you need especially when considering how much memory 4k uses
OIS < Digital Video Stabilizer (for smooth move), anyone agree?
+Darius K Oh man! Why is half of the photos (in this and smartphone vs compact video) blurry? You can't check them before publishing?
Z5 doesn't have OIS. It's often the biggest knock reviewers have against the camera of the phone.
it does have one in 1080p
It's software stabilization, not optical image stabilization, which requires hardware.
optical is only useful for photos and in video it's just crap , always makes shitty wobbly effect ..
isn't the automode standard 8mp. if he is using auto mode how is he taking pics at 23mp.
A smartphone camera, regardless of how advanced it is, can never ever be able to match a DSLR. period.
I have an S7, I think the Z5 pictures are better (less saturated, more realistic) except for in low light.
I'm glad I subbed when you're still under 10k subscribers. I think that number is going to grow exponentially if you continue to upload quality stuff like this.
+ganjabobby Why are you glad that you subbed under 10k?
Birkes because FIRST!!
Sir please help me to choose a good rear camera and selfie camera smartphone with natural colours in LG G5 or Samsung Galaxy S6 or Sony xperia X ?
It was shoot automatic right? So if nikon d3200 set manually it will be win
Z5 does shoot 4k man and from your video it shows that the images from the Z5 come closest to the dslr
yes the s7 has more pleasing images but that is because of all the in app processing
But as far as I understand, your video is about phones coming close to dslrs and if I want to use my dslr for a shot, I'd like to be the person doing the post production and so the Z5 gives me more natural images to work with!
Just my opinion
Samsung Galaxy S7 vs Nikon D5 camera comparison please... :D
Using the s7 under water is a good idea, it will help especially in case of explosion and minimize the damages.
Just found your channel, the quality is so awesome in your videos. keep it up man
What camera do you use now to shoot your videos?
Sayan Sengupta g7
What are you talking about? Z5 have 4K video but it is not in the settings, it is at the camera applications....
Very well organized, well recorded and well edited video. Well done!
Videos like this were about to make me believe that I did not need to buy a DSLR camera, however, I did get the D3300, and I couldn't be happier!! I stopped taking pictures with my phone a long time ago. Eventho this comparison doesn't show the strong points of the DSLR, as soon as you zoom in with any phone, the picture looks like a watercolor painting. If you're taking pictures of a moving subject, you'll most of the time get really blurry pictures. If you're thinking about buying a DSLR don't hesitate!
hhhhhh the z5 also shoot in 4k what a shame you dont find it hhhh
I will start by saying I havent read all the comments so I dont know if this was said before.
I own the Galaxy S7 and a Nikon 3300 (not 3200 but very close in specs with similar kit lens). Even though the S7 is very clear and produces very saturated and "eye pleasing" high contrast photos and video, the DSLR photos & video will always be the better option if you want a better looking final product if you plan on doing some post production. The S7 image data does not contain enough information to change or alter the images to a high enough level to get truly Pro results. The DSLR will always get you closer, even the cheaper cameras. Galaxy S7 also produces RAW photos and I have edited them along side Nikon 3300 RAW images and the bit depth of S7 images dont allow for the same amount of editing when trying to create a "personalized" look.
I have no experience with the Xperia products in this review.
This is my experience with the 2 different cameras. And there is a big difference in quality when you get into the pixels.... but if you dont plan on going that deep into it, the images and video are comparable on a very basic and newbie level.
How come the D3200 pictures are really low contrast and desaturated? Did you use the Neutral/Portrait Picture Control? If so, switch to Standard or even Vivid, and try again.
While the S7 hands down wins over the Z5, the D3200 wipes the floor with the S7 when it comes to image *quality*. When it comes to how pretty the images are (which is a different thing from image *quality*), the S7 looks prettier because of the contrast.
With so much of the Z5 not done right, photos: auto? manual? default settings?. The 4K video part I understand as its hidden under camera apps within the camera options. Maybe the video should be pulled down while you redo the Z5 segments, re-edit and upload the new video.
how did you get it so when you were moving the phone around the text moved with it??
Looks like I'll be purchasing the S7!
Should have added Nokia 808, Lumia 1020, and/or Lumix CM-1
Glad you acknowledged the missteps of the comparison. Not everyone would do that!
Hope you can take a little more time with the Sony and see it's attributes ;)
And sorry about the spam on my previous comment.. it was with the best intentions ;)
The Z5 and the Canon have similar colour tones and quality that tells me one thing the Samsung is far from realistic or life like. You basically just prefer the warmer colours as a preference. We are all entitled to our opinions really, even the video quality i could see the same thing. I would rather a camera produce more life like images or quality in auto mode with an option to twerk to whatever white balance option i want in manual. The s7 post processing is way over the top in my opinion. Another thing test the stabilization of the video recording, i have seen other videos that show the z5 as truly the king of smartphone video recording.
man your cat is the most beautiful cat i have ever seen.
Which camera and lens do you used to shoot this one?
i do have s7 and d3200 and there is no compare!!!everyone put ideal lighting and no zoom photos to make the comparison and confuse the audience!the d3200 has the biggest sensor so it's without a doubt the best cameras especially in low light!also why don't you put the photos in a pc and zoom a little to see what happens
+nikoss1000rr Would love for you to make a proper low light comparison. Start shooting in the afternoon and take a picture every 30 minutes to see how less and less light impacts the two contenders.
EscapeSquad I have a xiaomi mi 5(it's equivalent to the s7), and planning to buy a used d3200 to record assembly and review videos...but I don't know if the d3200 is better for video then de phone. What do you think
A comparison between those phones and an equally priced dslr would really interest me :)
S7 best
If you want to shoot in Auto mode, why bother buying a DSLR?
@Darius K - z5 restricted to 1080p ? maybe you did not check the camera UI - its there just swipe
on camera Apps its there together with the other camera effects . Also Z5 does not have OIS - it has digital- it is called SteadyShot- if you had only seen how it works ! it blows out all phones with OIS !
On S7 you can press on "+"/"-"(volume buttons) to take a picture.
I find it better this way than having a separate button.
No one seems to mention image editing. The flexibility from the 14bit raw camera images vs the highly compressed 8bit Jpegs is night and day. Yes these new phones might have some pretty good image processing software in them but nothing compares the results from a well edited raw file. That's where dedicated cameras hold their own.
Your the only reviewer that's actually spoke the truth in my opinion in regards to the S7 Edge camera "low light" I personally think it's quite bad. Everything looks plastic. Day light photos are fantastic though.
Subscribed. Nice job.
What light is that in the top right corner at the end? :/
my favorite is the Sony a6300
me toooooooo!!!
kalef1234 👎
Or a6000 for 1080 video or photos.
sir plz tell me
camera is better s7 edge or d3200?
do the rx100 again without handcapping it with 3.5 aperture... u have the full arsenal use it
not very fair comparison because the point of having dslr IS manual mode, restricting that doesn't do a justice at all, so you should make comparison - what is the best quality you could get out of each camera using all their available power and options. On the other hand this is useful video for average consumer who will just use automatic modes anyway.
Darius, you should change the video without delting it.
The Z5 hasn't OIS and has 4K.
Majority says, z5 captures better using 8mp in low light and 23 mp in good day light, it has DIS not OIS.
+mark nathaniel I've had this phone for 2 months and only now realised this, all thanks to your comment
Kyle Alexander
yeah, because higher pixels like 23mp requires good light, 8mp was optimized by sony in low ligth
mark nathaniel nice 👍
are you using some google play camera apps on the s7?
now what they don't mention is that the z5 camera comes in a way smaller package if you get the compact version than either of these cameras, giving it a unique advantage. Also, dedicated button
Do you even realise how powerful is that dslr in manual mode? My nikon d3300 entry level dslr shoots very smooth videos at 60fps.
On any camera, actioning a physical button, or touching the camera unit, can add vibration. A timer controlled, or remote control trigger might be better.
On my Samsung Galaxy s6, there is a very good voice command to start video or camera shooting. Voice activation is my preferred method.
Nice objective video, and I useally hate when people asking for that viewers use there links, but in this case I really appreciate the work there had gone into making this video straight forward and easy to comprihent, so If I should buy one of them, I would not hesitage to use your links, just as an plain thx for the work put into displaying the alternatives in an objective way...
Looking at the samples on 4:10, we know that the DSLR is the winner there, but comparing the image of the S7 to the Z5, I think the Z5 has a more shallow depth of field than the S7 if I'm not mistaken
I have the Sony z5 and I can't do the camera settings to focus
hey... z5 can record 4k video
hello my dear, can you tell me if the audio capture S7 features distortions when in very noisy environments Currently I shoot with a Lumia 830 and the quality is very good as the audio but I am looking for a more current smartphone. Thank you.
If you're still happy with your phone, I don't see any good reason to replace it. If your 830 is still doing a great job and doesn't disappoint you, I think you better keep it for longer. That's just my opinion. But if you want a good camera to match the greatness of your 830, I'd say Sony can do that
Charge Final Impact haha Ofcourse youre a Sony diehard Fanboy hahaha.
My brother has the Galaxy S7 and I have the Z5 compact and we compared the camera performance. I have to say low light photos with the Galaxy S7 are pretty good while my Z5 compact gives some grainy and washed out low light shots. However, my Z5 compact captures a lot more detail and the color accuracy is way better in normal (day)light. The colors on the shots of the Galaxy S7 are over saturated. Both have their pros and cons.
You do not know how to use your D3200...
On a SLR camera you can adjust the settings a lot to achieve the desired result.
You will never get the quality of a DSLR with your smarthphones
The only advantage of the smartphone compared to a cheap DSLR is the video level (slow motion, 4k, 1080p to 60fps etc, face cam, focus and stabilization).
On the D3200 you have a lot of scene mode, which change colours and contrast them quickly.
we wants to see a Comparaison of SONY Xperia XZ vs Google pixel XL
Z5 can record 4k videos! it does not have OIS, but the Steady Shot digital image stabilisation is far better than any other smartphone on the market.
you will get better pict if you use 8mp instead of 23mp in xperia z5. and you should use low mp for lowlight
you're hating the z5 because you can't use it?
My phone is s7 edge .. but I don't understand how to use camera photograpy profanssional type
I've been using my Z5 compact to shoot all my youtube videos so far! Ok it's not perfect, but I don't feel like I've outgrown it yet - the image stabilisation is really good, and I like the vivid colours, considering I already had it so didn't need to go and buy anything, I'm pretty happy with it. Still pictures blow away my old compact digital camera too! (Which actually is a Sony also!).
Not tried the 4k feature yet as I don't think my old laptop could handle the files!
4k for Z5 can be found on the additional camera apps, you should have checked first the camera Ui before saying it's limited only to 1080p, you also did not mention each video stabilization.
The Z5 appears to be more color accurate in comparison with the S7
It always annoys the crap out of me when reviewers say. "I used the settings right out of the box." WHY? The camera has a manual mode so you can capture the best images possible, and if you're comparing it to a dslr with adjustable settings, why not put out the best picture each thing can offer? The xperias shine on manual mode, same with the galaxies. It is just a waste of a video in my opinion.
hey why dont you redo the rx100 and dont adjust anything that video is misleading...
Want to see the auto-focus test between smartphone and budget dslr
Are you paid by Samsung?
+Basheer Jackson why you say that?
+Mohamad Fikri Ibrahim he even faked specs about Z5.... he wanted it to look inferior to S7
lol he apologized for it already :P
+Neville Nazerane what about people who watched the video and didn't read the comment.... why didn't he put some annotation about it.. I guess he does not work for Samsung, he's just biased by unconsciousness
+Ryuga Law (Xana) S
Do you plan to make some video about huawei p9? I am really interested in thato phone...
Fist comparison: The D3200 is clearly vastly more sharp, due to superior glass. Also less visible noise. Winner.
Thanks for the video.
Imho, any budget DSLR coupled with a good quality lens could beat all the current smartphones hands down. Especially in low light (/without flash) circumstances.
When it comes to image quality, I think lenses are the main element that make huge difference. Megapixels are good if you will print poster size images (or to crop images to fit your purposes).
Ps. 100 % crop would be more helpful in comparison of image qualities of photos.
You should be safe on what you´re saying or not say it at all. The Z5 does record in 4k, you just don´t know how to do it. You have to go to the camera apps.
One of the best budget cameras out there for impressiv night shots is the Olympus XZ-2 with 1,8f. You should've compared it with this camera. I mean if u zoom in on windows photo gallery you can go more than 100% and then u see something which u couldn't see before :)
No, phones cannot replace entry level DSLR, any photographer that uses both knows that right away. Phones have amazing cameras, but not quit that amazing yet.
Why not D3300 with a 35 1.8? that will be fair in terms of price.
look like smartphone camera only great on 0.5meter macro mode. not for event?
Bro from where you got the cover of s7
I think you should've use at least a better lenses for the dlsr. try the cheap nikkor 35mm 1.8g or sigma 17-50 f2.8 and I'm sure any phone can't beat it's image quality.
Aboh BB maybe a bit of a strange question, but I own a d3200, bought it with an 18-200mm lens from tamron, and I was wondering if it'd be a good idea to buy a second lens, for low light/indoor/portrait photography. Do you have any recommendations for me? I prefer not to spend large amounts of money
I still own my D3200 and no phone camera comes close. the only skin tones that I've seen rival it has actually been the Huawei Honor 7, iPhone, G5 and Z5. Only now are the phones really getting toward being competition but are still quite a way off
The reason the S7's images are more visually appealing is because there over saturated that's why you prefer them, they pop out. The Z5 has much more realistic colours similar to the DSLR. This means the Z5 is clearly better. I don't get why all tech users are fanboying over the S7 its crap XD (My opinion)
Lomax crap? Sony cameras always overheating! but S7 is lower mp of all but doing a nice job:):)
its not the camera but its the person behind it look at pictures 50 years ago when camera were by film still look good saying that, no camera phone can touch a sh*t dslr.
this guy is paid from samsung sony is the best
well in a way yes. but z5 is pretty disappointing.
+Shineehh ` Z5 lived up for about everyone's expectation. you're just biased.
Ryuga Law thats based on personal opinion and it didn't live to to mine and it seem most of others expectation as well. It's barely better than the z3+ and everyone expected more than that, so i guess it depends on what you were expecting from it
+Shineehh ` let's see, the best Camera in a Mobile for 2015, Waterproof, Classy and strong build, appealing Design, Great interface and fast software, no more Heating issues, and an all new 4k version of it.
I see nothing disappointing actually... not that S7 is disappointing... but seriously, S7 is a 2016 phone, it should have had more features than the S6(if we wanna use your Z3+ e.g.)
im using s7 edge and im not trying to compare it to that but i guess we just had really high expectations for the z5, the 4k display isnt really a big deal since its only used when displaying 4k content. the waterproof is valuable to me personally but the camera was all that big a deal, there was some comparisons that didnt impress me too much. also battery life, maybe its gotten better now but a few months ago i hardbricked my phone and needed a new one and someone was selling the z5 for 400AUD and i didnt end up buying it cause of battery life
