10 Things That Suck About the Sony ZV-E10 and How to Fix Them

Exellent video! Did you use any kfc variable nd filter or other on Viltrox 13mm? Worrying about vignette, any recommendation would be great. Tnx!!!

Any hack or tip to overcome the lack of EVF ? In outdoor suuny days ....

I’ve been using this camera. I find it takes really nice 4K video. If the light is right the picture is totally sharp. Which is great. Sometimes I use it for sports and I feel like it’s not quite a sports camera. Because the max 30fps in 4K leaves the moving image not smooth. Ok so go tO HD mode and use the 60 or 120fps setting for sports. That fixes the moving image problem but the overall clarity in HD is terrible. HD is blurry and grainy and poorly focused. I may as well use my phone for sports.

I’d say this camera is very good for video of scenery in 4K. For video of anything fast moving, panning, etc, not great.

As far as operation this camera is tough and reliable. Mechanically very good.

Once the mark ii comes out. I’ll be getting this compact camera and use it as my EDC. I’m a Canon Shooter so it will be my first Sony camera.

I just picked up the ZV-E10 and one of the first things I've noticed is the noise the kit lens makes when zooming. Internal mic picks it up and it's almost impossible to hear past. Would one of the mics mentioned help with this??

I started following you today watched a bunch of your videos ordered the zv e10, all the items except the gimbal and and 13 mm lens but I will order the lens later. I did order the .09 aperture lens. I already had the Rode mic so excited to use this going vlog with and create cinematic promos for my church so excited! Please keep the videos coming. I have a Nikon dslr are there any adapters I can use that will allow the Nikon lenses to work? I have a 50mm and a 35 mm.

This a nicely made video indeed.. found it brief and very useful and practical!.. Tks Mark, look forward to more videos on hobby photography topics

Very handy points..! The only features important to me that are difficult/impossible to fix are no viewfinder and no weather sealing. Thank you..!

8 bit 4:2:0 color sampling ia enough for color grading vs fuji xs-10 ?

Would you buy this camera or the Canon M50?

You said you cant use the camera when charging? It can be powered thru usb right

I love this guy

Hi. You mentioned that you can't use the camera while the camera is charging. Will the dummy battery be useless then?

I got my m50 a year ago.. Is there something to regret? I think of buying crane m3 now..

Wrong observation - you can use the camera while simultaneously charging the battery via type c, i wonder if you are even right about the others points you covered

I have 2 small rig chargers and about 10 batteries. I have no batterie problems at all :-)

This is one amazing cam for beginners

Nice marketing scam 3 screen protectors link in description 😂

Three stops (f/4 to f/1.4) is not 300% more light, it's 2^3 = 8 times more light or a increase of 700%. From f/3.5 to f/1.4 it's 2 and 2/3 stops, 6.25 times more light or a increase of 525%

Some good info. Anyone got a link that works directly to the cold shoe wind muff mentioned. Pref uk. Thanks.

Thanks for the awesome video!

Now if we only had a small rig EVF

It's the only reason I still haven't bought this camera because apart from that, everything else I can live with.

I've gotten too used to seeing the resolution of my phone screen that I feel like I'll constantly be winging in my head when I'm trying to setup a composition under broad sunlight.
Trying to find what's the best alternative equivalent to the ZV E10 range that has an EVF. Doesn't matter if it isn't a Sony.
If you had any recommendations would super appreciate it :)

considering buying this camera. will there be an upgraded version coming out soon or should I go ahead and pull the trigger?

Maybe you can’t change the battery and use the camera but you can use an external power bank to power and use it

Cheapest mirrorlesd camera with HDR bt 2020 .Is this correct ? Any other company has same or minimal better ?

A7iii is older but have way more better low light

I have two things I'm trying to fix, maybe you can help:

First, I'm actually using mine for streaming, and one of the 3 cams I have keeps shutting down. I think it's due to overheating, I have all the recommended settings set, but I have to put it on a shelf which may have something to do with it. Are there any accessories that will increase cooling?

Second, every time I shoot, when I turn the cameras on, the zoom has to be reset. Is there a lens that has a manual zoom that would work with the ZV-e10 that will retain its' zoom? That is to say, lens that ignores the zoom control in the camera? Or is there an affordable lens that I could add that's equivalent to the kit lens, but that can have the zoom level stay after the camera is shut off and restarted? Or maybe some other solution? Right now, I'm using the mm reading on the camera which just about works, but it's fiddly because the display and control are hard to use to get to an exact zoom position, and it takes a few tries each time.

Thanks!

Can you do this same video for the canon m50

Thanks a lot for this video. The bitrox 13mm f1.4 lens is a bit costly for start up like me.

is there any adapter for fujilens to sony'?

Great video, thanks a lot for sharing it, it's really helping me. I have a question: as far as you know does the adaptor Sony XLRK3M.SYU fit with the ZV-E10? I can't find any really helpful info on the internet. Thanks again.

Fantastic review. Super helpful.

Biggest garbage ever I seen.

I use my ZV-E10 with the dji Ronin S3 and it’s just a perfect match especially when I throw in the Sigma 16mm F1.4 . It’s a beauty. No need for counter balancing .

Without samples pics and video. Goodbye and dislike 👎

A battery charger and extra batteries are cheap on Amazon.

I just wanna know is it good for a podcast and what’s a good lens

lmao I didn't realize my cage had a swiss plate built in! I was using another swiss plate on the bottom of the cage, how embarrassing. Thanks for the info!

As usual, great video! But, just curious, how far are you from the camera for shooting this vídeo with the Viltrox 13mm? Greetings from Italy 😊

Hi Mark, For videography , what do you recommend M50 or sony zv e10?

I’m now a zve10 bot 😂

May be time for me to get a new camera....maybe the zv-e10. I am such a camera noob

Anybody able to help!!! When I select still mode and take some pics suddenly the camera will jump to movie recording when I press the shutter it’s strange

I would also suggest the Sigma 16mm 1.4, which is less price than the Viltrox 13mm.

Mark - the gimbal you recommend - is that with the kit lens or the 13mm Viltrox lens

Great content!! We love the Z-EV10 videos. You’re a great educator

Not sure if it charges but you definitely can use a battery bank and using the camera at the same time in my opinion it’s better

I think you are asking too much from a 700$ body. , Things you are asking comes in a6600.

Pro tip for beginner & cheapskate like me to avoid rolling shutter and stabalize footage learn how to use Catalysts Browse it'd free. Buy cages, which will not only add attachment points but also remove micro gitters with an extra layer of protection and weight to the body.

Now, I’m ready to buy it😊thanks and already subscribed
