I purchased the camera mostly for vlogging and the stabilization is awful on it. I don’t have much rolling shutter issues, but the extreme crop and wobbly videos are disappointing. Adding a lens isn’t practical as an everyday Vlog camera because it makes it too large to carry around comfortably. I wish I just got the Sony Zv-1.

I don't want up be that guy, but i feel like the people complaining about the zv-e10 and its minor drawbacks are missing the fact that this is a budget camera. This camera is hands down the best bang for buck camera on the market. You simply can't expect this little powerhouse of a camera to do everything at its price point. Otherwise sony wouldn't sell any of its higher end cameras. If you think the rolling shutter issue is that serious or is that important to you and you don't want to go through the known post editing fixes, then buy a more expensive camera. The streaming and battery issues would be the same on most cameras, so i don't see why these are drawbacks to zve10. Overall, the zv-e10 is a great little beginners camera, and those looking for pro level features should be expecting to pay pro level prices for it.

ZV-E10 was my best Purchase of 2021. The camera works excellent with my Sigma 30mm 1.4 but to my surprise the Webcam feature is the most helpful for me for creating gaming content. Its soo easy to set up with obs. Never goes out of battery for long hours. love it.

Yeah I had a similar experience, that lens is god-tier. The bokeh is buttery AF and it makes everything look like a Hollywood. I added a GlimmerGlass 1 filter and it gives my footage an incredibly soft, organic look that you will never get on any other device.

Great video! I especially find the camera shake and shutter wobble very strange, as it's marketed towards vloggers. I use it for more controlled shoots, and it's been a fantastic camera for introducing me to the world of expensive photography and videography gear. 😅 I didn't know about dummy batteries... I'll definitely check it out!

@@tudor4457 I wouldn't quite know. I got to the conclusion that this would be my pick for a 4k hybrid camera under 1k dollars. I do now know that lenses makes such an important difference though. The difference in quality from my first photos and videos with this camera compared to now comes from 1. Learning manual mode, and 2. Upgrading lenses. The camera itself really should be good enough if one doesn't know what they're looking for, but wants capable equipment for importantly work.

I have a few gripes with the ZV-E10. One is when it powers down it doesn't resume with the previous focal length settings and it's really annoying when you've set your frame and then it powers down to save on battery! Secondly, the viewfinder automatically flips the image on certain viewing angles - it should be a user option and not automatic. So frustrating!

This is a VERY complimentary list of problems! All very minor! For USB streaming, anyone who can afford an E10 can afford an HDMI to USB adapter. The rolling shutter is not problematic for amateur video, and professional videographers can afford a better camera. The stabilization is not an issue because no camera stabilization is sufficient; all need a gimbal for good quality, and again: if you can afford an E10, you can afford a $50-100 gimbal. For me, I don't like how the A6000/E10 series have weak 1080p video quality according to DPReview, and I don't like how it has the old Sony camera software interface, and for that matter, I don't like how the E10 is still a A5000/A6000 with old tech. BUT, it's still the sweet spot, and there's nothing better to recommend for the price.

my biggest reason not to get it is the lack of awb-lock. awb-lock was introduced in 2019 i think (on sony, i mean) on a6400. i think every sony since then has it, except zv-e10, if im not mistaken. zv-e10 does not have awb-lock, they just left it out. i have a6400 and awb-lock is very convenient to set wb silently and quickly in videos. you just cant do it on zv-e10. i dont know if they forgot it or left it out intentionally, but for me its a real turn off, now that i know what having it is like.

Is there a camera around the same price and specs that deals with that issue slightly better?

I love my ZVE-10. I will say that I’d rather have the cables block the screen because if it was on the other side (where the grip is) than if I plugged in my external microphone it would be in the way of my hands. Other than that, great vid 👍

A good point, I guess for me it would be ideal for the supplied cable to be designed not cover the screen, or for the screen to flip up similar to the Sony a5100. Thanks for watching 🙏

@EditingWithPopPop Ай бұрын
Great question. Did you come up with something? I need to look into this for my grandson. On my first attempt, I will set it to an Aperture priority of f/4. Continuous AF. I may turn off Face Detect, so it doesn't jump from face to face as soon as they turn their face. Would the Center focus be too narrow and Wide catch too much? Let's set it to a Medium Flexible Spot. Next is the tricky stuff. I will max out the AF Transition Speed since the subject in focus will be running. And, I will slow down the AF Subj. Shift Sens. hoping to slow down the change of focus between players (breathing). As long as I keep the ball handler within the Medium Flexible Spot, I should be good.

Just came back from a trip and noticed that only the first few clips I recorded were in 4k, all the rest of the clips were recorded in 1080p despite me wanting it to be in 4k. Anyone know what I can do to prevent it from dropping down to 1080p? I record with the default "smart/intelligent" setting, I wonder if that's what's causing my issue.

I loved your video. The most frustrating thing with this camera is that by default it recycles the file names. I shoot product photos and not until about a month in and thousands of photos I came across a problem where hundreds of my photos were named the same and I had to manually rename them. The issue was that there were 2 downstream processes so I had to get into multiple files to find the rows, correct them there, plus rename the physical files on two systems. Never I repeat never I encountered such an issue with a camera before. Sure, I can rename the file name prefix, but to ever assign the same file name to another picture ever is downright silly.

I never wobble my ZV-E10 around so quickly as to get rolling shutter issues - does anyone do so in their everyday use? Don't forget the Sony lenses with OSS - the Viltrox and Sigma lenses do not have it (despite being excellent lenses!) so active steady shot (which crops) is needed if one isn't using a gimbal, or perhaps trained in ballet... I have loads of fun with mine, although looking forward to Spring coming around and being a bit warmer out with it!

Personally I don't often move the camera that quickly for the rolling shutter to be that bad. But I have definitely noticed it, to a lesser extent, when recording video. For vloggers it'd be a big issue. If you know how to deal with it, then it isn't so bad. Thanks for the comment 🙏

People who says "Rolling shutter is not a problem for me" probably didn't use a proper camera before. I just bought zv e10 and even in when i'm slow rotating around product that i'm shooing there is a slight rolling shutter happening. It really bothers me since even the way older a5100 has much better performance when it comes to rolling shutter. Except the rolling shutter i'm very satisfied in every sense. But agh... It's is such a disappointment that Sony didn't published a firmware update on this...

I sorted out the battery life issue by carrying a 20,000 mAH USB-C battery pack with me, although that further exacerbates the "USB cables go in front of the touch screen" issue. The reality is, the ZV E10 is a cheap camera that was created to meet a certain price point. I'm very happy with mine but I wish it had IBIS, I think that is one of the most annoying things. It means I'm limited largely to tripod shots and the like. But that's OK, because the type of filming I do is tripod based. If you hook it up to a 4K Elgato the quality of the video feed when coupled with a fast portrait lens is god-tier. But you have to know how to make it work, it's a fussy camera. Will be upgrading to an Alpha 7C probably with IBIS and built-in 4K USB streaming.
