Another great video, thanks
Thanks BFA, always appreciate the kind words and hope you’re doing well 💪👍
It’s really helpful. I will try. Thank you a lot.👍
Thanks TT, hope you’re doing well my friend and wishing you great results with your shooting!:)
Thanks so much for your channel. I've finally worked out how to use manual focus!
You make learning all about this amazing camera so easy.
Thank YOU Martin, really pleased it’s helpful and very much appreciate the kind words:) Let me know if I can help with any questions, consider subbing if you like this sort of content and have a lovely day 👍
@@dbvares8745 I've subbed already and for all notifications.
You talk to the ones who aren't so technical and you make it easy to follow.
I'm really looking forward to making some very cinematic content for my channel over the coming months .
Thanks Martin, that’s awesome to hear:) I always think the greatest challenge when passing on something complex is to make it digestible and straightforward to a newcomer so if that’s how some of my stuff is coming across then it’s a big win:)
Thanks and have a great day 👍
Love the video. Thanks a bunch.
Thank YOU 90DR, really appreciate the kind words:) Let me know if you have any questions, consider subbing if you enjoyed and have a great day 👏
Hi Dave, excellent and clear vid!
Hey Bob, always nice to hear from you and glad this one was helpful:) Take care and have a great weekend 👍
This is awesome!
love your videos!... and so sorry about your nuts!!
Hey Danny awesome to hear from you and always appreciate the kind words man:) It was of course a crushing disappointment-no macadamia; no pistachios - a travesty of nut disappointment for me once again;)
Hope you’re doing good and have a kickass weekend 💪
Thank you!
You have the best Zv1 tutorials!
Thanks RR, happy they’re helpful and great to hear from you:) Take care and have a great weekend 👍💪
@@dbvares8745 you as well!
Hey DBV Great tutorial as usual and as usual a lot went over my head I'm slowly getting to know the ZV-1 better .... hopefully it reflects on my content lol thank you for sharing 😎🙏
Hey UC, always a pleasure to hear from you sir:) So I just watched your doner kebab vid and LOVE those close up beauty shots at the start and end-looking awesome 👏
Generally all looking slick, my only though from this vid that might benefit yours is the AF drive speed setting - if you put that on slow the camera will still focus on stuff you hold up to it, but if you just move something like the mince packaging past the lens quickly it won’t move focus accidentally. I need to not watch your content while I’m fasting though - v hungry now 😂
Hope you have an awesome weekend sir - I don’t know about where you are but we finally have some weather for BBQ here in the UK 💪
@@dbvares8745 Ok thanks for that input i will try the slower setting on the focus 👍 Also UK my friend loving the weather 😎 Well why it lasts 😂🤣😂
great vid!
This video couldn't come at a better time 😁✌
Glad to hear TTG, it’s nice when things line up like that:) Let me know if you have any questions, consider subbing if you enjoyed and have a great day 💪
Thanks bro 👍
You’re very welcome dude and thank YOU for watching:) Let me know if you have any questions, consider subbing if you enjoyed and have a great weekend 👍
Hi man, very good explanation... thanks. I'm considering to buy a Sony ZV-1, so I look different tutorials to check the results you can get using the camera. I subscribe and I'll follow your advices. Happy weekend 👍🏻😃
Thanks Robert, appreciate the kind words and very happy to help if you have any Qs I can answer:) Take care and happy weekend to you too 👍💪
yes, i'd like to see more about experimenting with other shutter speeds for 24p outside of the standard 48-50.
Thanks CB, your comment has pushed that idea a bit higher on my ‘next video plans’ list:) Thanks for watching, consider subbing if you enjoyed and have a great day 👍
I need to watch this later
Nice video
You gained my respect thou
Thanks Mohamed - appreciate the kind words:)
Tank you
Great video! Is Fuji’s Film Simulation a great alternative to Colour Grading?
Thanks again, very useful as a fellow zv1 user. Still finding all the settings complicated 😅 when I come to actually using it
You’re very welcome OMT and great to hear from you:) Great job persevering with the learning curve - it will definitely give you good returns for the effort and almost all the concepts and approaches you’re covering apply to all cameras so you’re gaining some strong versatility too:)
As ever, shout if you have any Qs and have a great day 👍
@@dbvares8745 😅 I need to rewatch things, don’t think I’m shopping correctly as when I come to edit or colour grade it’s a mess. Did try slog2 and 3, settings prob wrong and shooting. I’ll check yours again with hlg3 if I have any luck. I want to get a a7iii or something, but first I need to know my way around as it will just be wasted on me
Good luck with the experiments OMT:) Colour grading is an art in itself so I try to keep my dabbling basic as I learn in the background. I’d say the fine profiles are probably the least headache inducing when getting started while still giving more dynamic range than the default profile.
I’m not a big fan of slog on camera alike the zv1 as they only record 8bit colour depth. Without getting to techy that limits the room to move things like saturation and exposure when you grade and because slog is so flat I find I want a lot of room to adjust it 😂 HLG I like but need to map it into standard colour space, which again makes things a bit techy 😂
So yeah, keep up the great work on the learning curve and maybe see how the cine profiles treat you:)
I'd be down to hear you talk about the effects of other shutter speed / frame rates sometime like you mentioned
Great to hear Dred, I'll move that one up a little in the long ideas list and see what I can do:)
Thanks for watching, consider subbing if you enjoyed and have a great day!
I just Sony zv1 and learning how to use it
hi, i just saw this video, question, do you have a video like this one, but for Live Streaming on Twitch? If you already have a video, i was not able to find it here; could you share the link please?
Thanks for this video again; have a great day.
Hey man, great video, helped me alot, one question, when you select PP10 do you change the Gamma from HLG2 to HLG or just leave as it is? Thanks
Hey Rodrigo, great question! I have actually used both HLG2 and HLG3 quite extensively. I think theoretically HLG3 has slightly more colour range but also slightly more noise vs HLG1 and HLG2 is in the middle. From my experience, especially if shooting in the day and keeping iso fairly low, HLG3 is all benefit and no downsides; HLG2 is a nice balance and good if you need to push iso more. Nowadays I’d say I use HLG3 80% of the time and HLG2 the rest:)
Hope that helps and let me know any further Qs 😁
@@dbvares8745 Thank you, forgot to mention but I just bought a ZV-1 and started learning this new hobby, your vids helped me alot. Keep doing your great work!
Hi Dave, thanks for another great video on the ZV-1 ! I'm currently trying to get the best fps and shutter speed combination for a subject who is moving on an escooter at approx. 30kph. Wondering if you could do another vid on shooting moving objects to get a cinematic effect ? Thanks again ! Mark.
Hey Mark, thanks for the kind words and great to hear from you:) So for the ‘cinematic’ effect it’s still the 24fps and 1/50 shutter. You’ll find that gives a lot of motion blur (but if you pay attention to an action movie you’ll realise how much blur there is in movie action scenes!). If you want less blur you can try shooting from further away or with a wider angle; the opposite if you want more.
If you want smoother motion then higher frame rates with give you that; it won’t be ‘cinematic’ in terms of movie conventions but if it gives you the results you want then that’s the main thing in my view.
I think shooting at 120fps can be a nice solution in that case: you can then use slow motion to bring things back to 24fps if you wish or playback at 120 for a smoother less motion blurred image that still fits perfectly on a 24fps timeline.
If you go for other frame rates like 120 try to stick to the 180 degree shutter rule (so 1/250 would be closest at 120fps) as when you slow things down thst will give more the ‘cinematic looking’ motion blur.
Sorry for the long response but hopefully some of it is helpful-let me know any other Qs and have an awesome weekend 👍
@@dbvares8745 Thanks Dave! I think I need to experiment a bit here. I tried 120fps in order to get clear slo-mo but it still looks blurred when played back at 24fps. I'm thinking maybe a faster shutter would help. I can't use the built in HFR because someone needs to be there to trigger and I'm shooting myself on the scooter with no assistant. I will try again, maybe with 1/500 shutter and see what happens. I'm thinking it will have less blurr but be more jittery. Thanks again! Mark.
All sound like very solid thoughts- often it just experiments until you find something that works well enough for your desired result - fingers crossed you find something you like:)
It’s ages since I used it but my only other thought: could the HFR mode be triggered with the smartphone remote control app? Might be impossible or impractical but throwing it out just in case it works:)
@@dbvares8745 Good idea Dave, I will try to see if that is an option. Cheers!
Hi Dave, FYI, I tried to use smartphone to trigger. You can do this but the range is really small so it didn't suit my situation. I increased the shutter to 1/500th and as expected that gave less motion blur but more jitter. I will continue experimenting...
I'm enjoying learning from you, DB Vares. I want to make sure I'm understanding something. Lets say I wanted to make the church at 7:53 and the flower at 8:00 to appear less dark and have more definition and colour - could shooting in a particular Picture Profile like HLG3 then grading to increase the exposure of 'shadows' help? I wanted to test my general understanding.
Many thanks. I appreciate the combo of gags and education. Entertaining Training. Enter-training!
Hey BBB, great to hear from you:) So broadly the answer is yes. Some picture profiles have more dynamic range-the ability to capture a larger range of darker to lightest in a shot before losing information. HLG, slog and cine profiles all have better dynamic range than the default picture profile for instance. And if you wanted to make some parts lighter, like shadows, you would be able to do that in the edit. Depending on how detailed you wanted to go with editing you could do that for the whole image or use masks, droppers etc to just focus on certain bits.
I’d still say when first getting started try to keep things simple as much as possible; I can do ok colour grading but I prefer not to if I can and to get the look I like in camera where possible.
But yeah, that’s the long answer; the short one is yep, your example makes sense:)
Thanks for watching and have an awesome day 💪👍
Also ‘enter-training’…that’s genius right there. Love it 😂
Hi! Why can't i activate Nd Filter in Intelligent Video Mode? Why is available in Intelligent photo mode? :/
Many of us prefer this camera over the newer one, which imo isn't compared due to all the issues it has imo. PLEASE more please.. what are your opinions on shooting from a car but driving slow, i need to shoot a rv park a very large rv park
I'd say if you're going relatively slowly then Catalyst Browse will give great results (I sent you links to the relevant vids in another reply to your comments) or the Zhiyun Crane m2 gimbal should work well (ruclips.net/video/zOEyHuCOsu4/видео.html)
Hope that helps!
@@dbvares8745 Thank you I am trying to find where you posted them lol
Is all of the footage here shot on the ZV1?
Would like to get a camera for my real estate/ commercial video shooting. Do you recommend Sony Zv1 with Ulanzi wide angle?
I think it could work well yes; there’s more on wide angle lenses for the zv1 here thst might be helpful: ruclips.net/video/Dg18IDHjFbs/видео.html
Thanks for watching, consider subbing if you enjoyed and have a great day 👍
Hello DB
I got my camera and am learning from this video. Is there any video of yours that you will recommend after this? Something like absolute beginners? This is my first camera ever
You have a lot of videos linked in this. Alright, I will go through them all. Thank you
Hey Sandeep, congrats on the new purchase! And yeah hopefully the linked videos will be useful, if it’s not there I suggest this one on when to use different video modes: ruclips.net/video/U5mn2LQeL20/видео.html
Hope that helps! :)
@@dbvares8745 thank you
You have so many tutorials about ZV1. I felt lost when I got the camera and tried to navigate through the settings. But after watching 2 of your videos, I do seem to understand a tiny portion of the menu. I will watch all your videos
Thank you for your effort
Oh, I also got the Ulanzi light although it's almost twice the price here in India
What is the tripod that you used?
Hey Greggie (excellent name btw!) I normally use a heavy duty extendable tripod; I always forget the brand name but there should be a link to the exact one in the description. Hope that helps:)
Thanks for watching, consider subbing if you enjoyed and have a great weekend 💪👍
@@dbvares8745 thank you so much my friend! I think I found it in another video you did (the Victiv 81 inch) and ordered it yesterday. I just want to also stress how important your videos have been in my decision to get my ZV-1! Got it yesterday and set it up, can’t wait to start shooting. Hopefully we can collaborate soon :). All the best to you and yours ❤️🙏🏾
When is new content coming DB?
Hi, what is the best video recording settings for a RUclips video? For "file format" "recording" "frame rate"
Not one question about people not having the option within their cameras to select 24p 100M?? On my camera I only have two options....25p 100M and 25p 60M - How do I obtain more frame rate options?
I think the product showcase mode.may be ON,if u OFF it,u will get access to other frame rates
Куплю себе Sony a7 m4 и тоже сниму обзор на zv-1 😎🔥
Hey if I shoot in 1/50 should my aperture be F1.8 or. I like F1.8 to blurry out the background when I shoot magic videos or it doesn't matter ? Sometimes I increase the shutter for the brightness
Hey SBM, if you want the blurriest background I’d say stick at f1.8 as you suggest. There’s some tips here on getting the maximum amount of bokeh possible: ruclips.net/video/PfDZs2Zkfq0/видео.html
If you need to manage brightness then you can either go for a faster shutter (might not be a bad thing for magic given some of the quick motions) or you can use your lighting, iso settings and nd filter to adjust exposure while sticking at f1.8 and 1/50.
There’s some tips on the zv1 in a studio setting here: ruclips.net/video/FjmUIo5Gf-c/видео.html
And some tips on iso in lower light here:
