I can't believe the footage isn't post processed, looks absolutely stunning straight out of the camera paired with a stunning model :D

The S cinetone.....that dynamic range....so much colors. The slow mo😢😢😢 They nailed it. No phone can shoot slow mo without sacrificing quality meaning it shows 1080p or 4k, but the footage looks pixalated, dark and muddy. Hats off to sony

This video demonstrates the improvements of Sony's camera upgrades better than anyone!

The passing train moment was BEGGING for a long exposure! 3:50

It's amazing to see what you can do on a phone. I hope Sony continues to improve their smartphones despite the small market share.

Oh man, that phone is sick! 🔥 When I heard the shutter speed with Irina walking towards you, my mind was BLOWN!! Keep it up Kohki 😁

3:20 That is one of the reason why I always love Sony cameras. It's crazy to see Sony can do it on smartphones. I've been holding off Sony's 2021 and 2022 flagship phones because of the thermal-inefficient SoC, so this one is my next phone.

an actual photographer/video who knows what he is doing and plays around! Thank you!!!!!!

From I read, all the lenses of Xperia 1 V can do 4k 120 FPS, which is insane. 😱

I also love how natural the colors look on Xperia. Looking forward to using it

most natural looking photos , even at night . Might have to upgrade my mark 4.

How inspiring.. A camera that is realistic- not where u look back at the photo and regret not bringing your Mirrorless is what I am desperate for. Alot of life happens on the fly and we have our phones more than anything else so this is somewhat priceless. Well done such a great video and enjoyed your commentary! Irina seems very fun, what a day

That video bomber butterfly at 2:05 is so DOOOOPPPEEE... That phone's slo-mo is smooth and velvety ❤❤❤❤

Really enjoyed the video! Super raw and genuine, also love how the photos turned out with Irina. She is an amazing model (:

After watching so many of your videos now with the different Sony phones and models...the magic really lies with having fun and working with whatever hardware you have.

This was amazingly shot! Awesome demonstration

I have a plan to go to Japan next year to travel for 10-14 days. Just watch all of you video again (and again) to note all the location in your videos. I hope I will have enough time to go to all those places. Thank you again Kohki, you have inspired me so much.

It looks great with s-cinetone. You really got the most out of it here. The output is still a little crunchy with digital sharpening for my taste, so I'd probably still get a Z-V1 instead. But as phones go it's getting there. ✨

Yay, you're back, Kohki!! The shots look really nice with realistic skin tones. The shutter speed during the burst was nutsss!! During some JTuber live streams I've noticed lately that certain phones still have problems with auto white / gray point in cloudy conditions, especially near rivers where everything supposedly gray turns out way too blue. Same for supposedly white areas. Although that might have something to do with the codecs. It would be interesting to see early cloudy morning videos shot on the Xperia. How is the noise level of the night / low light shots? It's fun that Irina immediately reacts herself on you describing the problem rather than asking her what to do. Like "harsh contrasts", Irina turns her face into the sun. Real pro! Anyway, great footage, narration, editing again, Kohki!! Thanks a lot for your hard work! Can't wait for your next one!! Peace out!!

Mine landed recently and yours was the last video I watched before ordering it online. I am not disappointed in any way whatsoever! You 3 folks made my decision so easy. Smashed it out of the studio! Regards and be safe! 💋

Footage looks stunning! Love the colors, thanks for the helpful demo :)

A very big THANK, to you, dear, Kohki for this excellent presentation of the new Sony Xperia 1 V! Much help to find out how this new mobile is working in the field of video and photographing! Wishing you both all the best! Friendly greetings from Sweden!

Holy grail. Kohki + Sony Xperia never cease to amaze

Watched this at 1iii. And im probably sold now. I recently realized the features on 1V are so much more and better. Still it takes knowledge (or modell) to get that picture. Great rewiev.

Okay this quality is sick and I love how the colors are so real :D Irina did such a great job in modeling tho

Beautiful pictures! This is really making me consider getting this Sony camera.

Still using my Xperia 5 the very first generation, I don't think it will die anytime soon for me to replace, but damn, this Xperia 1 V is really something else entirely.

really nice shots🤩

Yo utilizo el Xperia 1 iii y este nuevo me ha dejado muy sorprendido 😮

You are stunning. Unbeliveable out of the camera footages and photos. You absolutely pulled out great performances from this phone.

Just found your channel after doing extensive research on the Xperia 1 V. The quality of the photos and footage are amazing! I've been a professional photographer for a number of years and have been using Sony cameras ever since the first alpha. When smartphone cameras got good enough, I loved having a smartphone that had a capable camera with me (my favourite was the Huawei P60 Pro, I found it had incredible dynamic range) Interestingly I've only ever owned 2 'Sony' phones, the Sony Ericsson P900 and the Sony Ericsson W200i (DEFINITELY showing my age lol) But the last few years, I got phones that dealt more with computational photography and achieved good results as a quick point and shoot. Then, in the last few years, I went with foldable phones, to ease my workflow for my main career. My current Galaxy Fold 3 has seen better days, but the turning point happened yesterday, when my department at work had a baby shower for one of our colleagues. Everyone in my team knows I'm a photographer (unfortunately I forgot to pack my Alpha IV in my bloody bag) and was looking at me to take some photos and video, but I was so embarrassed with the camera quality of the Galaxy fold 3, I 'left' it at my desk. Unfortunately, I was persuaded to go fetch it and take some photos.... and after going through the photos...I really should've left it at my desk! Anyway, I'm out of contract and was looking for a new phone last night, did a tone of research and I think this Xperia would be what I actually need...especially after a photoshoot I had 2 weeks ago, I've been thinking of buying a monitor. Now after seeing this amazing video, Platinum Silver Xperia 1 V pre-ordered! I just hope I didn't jump the gun before the new Xperia Pro II is announced and turns out to be substantially better....

great with all the improvements and also even nicer with the lower starting price... i love what i see with it, but still a bit out of my budget... as for my current phone is the pixel 7 pro. very nice device... but really miss all these manual controls... they are awesome... and also hats off to the 120fps great video.

As always amazing video and amazing photos! Always happy to see new videos! Just curious how did met Irina ? Kinda interested in story :D

Love the colors on the cinematics! If you sell one of your video LUTs, I would definitely buy them. 😅 Great video as always bro!

Acabo de descubrir este canal porque soy fanatico de Sony, y me encantó el contenido, nuevo sub 🎉

Great review video! ❤

i been with pixel since day 1 .. i might switch to sony this time around .. totally impressed, waiting for reviews lets see .. thanks for the upload

omg those results are pretty impressive!

This is so beautiful ! Waiting for Xperia 5V.

Sony xperia fan here❤ nice video kohki😁

pretty good vlogs, pretty informative, good job!

Probably this year I will still use the Xperia 1 ii and maybe next year I will choose again Xperia. I really love this phone, the only downside is that Sony doesn't offer software updates like Samsung... and here I can include photo/video apps also, not just the OS. You can shoot some nice bursts with these phones and when you have small children or pets, it's a game changer. Nice review ;)

Ahh man. Sony did it again. I wish they upgraded the other rear sensors as well, but the improvements in their computational photography are probably worth it anyways. They made quite a significant jump with this one. Since your video on the 1 IV I got myself a 5 III for 400$ used and I've been loving it. Very few phones as versatile and speed-focused as these. And the jpegs are gorgeous, even at night I prefer their colors and quality over anything else I've seen and used (including the big boys like the S22 Ultra from window shopping outings). I'll probably wait for another year before upgrading, but who knows. A few things Sony should go forward with: - Upgrade the other 2 sensors (the ultrawide especially, it's quite noisy and probably the most outdated one on the phone) - Enable 4k 120fps HDR on the front camera - Start porting more photo and video picture profiles from the alpha cameras, every new addition is invaluable - Include the strap hole the Pro-I has (I have a case to protect my phone that also supports a strong camera strap for smartphones I have, but it's so beautiful I sometimes just remove it to be able to see it, Sony does design better than a lot of smartphone companies) - Improve the video algorithms to reduce the smoothness (this is pretty apparent when digitally zooming in and it could be better, but it also eliminates noise like no other smartphone) - Give us the ability to shoot RAW on basic mode + the new night mode - (If they haven't already) fix the low light raw color circle + softness problem - Increase the telephoto's optical zoom range (there was a rumor about a 70-200mm module but it seems it was false or didn't make it in the device) - Add clipping zebras for both highlights and shadow areas on all camera apps - Give us the option for a digital button instead of the shutter button on advanced modes (I wouldn't prefer it over a physical shutter button, that's a huge selling point, but this way you can use intervalometer apps, which is HUGE for someone like me who's into astrophotography) That's about it. I'm very impressed and looking forward to see this sensor tech spread. Another creator made a video that included a 2000 ISO jpeg shot in late twillight and it blew my mind how there was basically no visible noise at all. If I go over 200 ISO on my 5 III noise creeps in really fast.

Damn, such a good camera on a phone, this is too good, the colour is really punchy but in natural way, with a good skill and a nice spot, nothing can stop sony 🥰

Whenever Sony drops a new device I always look out for kohki, he always go deep with the Xperias.

Khoki's intro video is epic 😊

That was great upgrade on the camera and video.. must get

really nice walkthru, lovely model too. haven't own any sony phones since the xperia z...

hey, thank you for this video! I am using Xperia 1 iii right now and I am happy with it! even though the 1 v looks amazing I think Sony is keeping their best sensor and photo quality for the Pro-i ii, once that beast is out I am getting it :) thanks for the review again and best of luck!

Those colors mind blowing

Great video Kohki!

love your work!

Nicely done, dude 👍🏼

Great video!

at 2:05 the butterfly in the shot is just mesmerising

Finally back 🙌 and with Irina 👌🏽

I think it just goes to show how a good photographer can use any decent camera, and take great photos

I got the S23 Ultra and even I'm tempted to try this thing out.

Very good

Big thanks for your effort of rhis great video all so big thanks for the girl, we see a improvement in hardware and software, we hope to see this year a revolution in the xperia pro-i mk2 with real 1inch sensor used completely on the next beast, we hope Sony will listen to it’s customers, a real rx100m8 in your pocket will be very welcoming. Big thanks from the Netherlands

Dearest Ko, We are many Xperia fans around the world, mostly in Europe, and we are really appreciative for the work you are doing with Sony devices. But many of us are not creators for YT, but are making money for different occasion between friends. As I being among them, more a non-virtual creator (a more personal one), I used Xperia and fell in love with the quality overall from Elm and Hazel era. Very cheap but a greatly performers on daylight for that time. I didn't switch to any other trademark from then, but sure, there were issues every time with Sony's software processing, but by time they solved it in a way or another. Now I am a happy user of Xperia 1 mk4, and for in depth want-to-be professional creator for friends and a true DSLR to smartphone camera shooting Xperia needs improving. Sure, Xperia it's truly close to it and much better than any Samsung, Xiaomi or iPhone, but, the engineers of software needs a really close approach to the die hard users of Xperia testing, that you are also one of them, and maybe by you, we can solve some issues. So, my questions for you and Sony if they read your fan's, are: 1. Rotating the icons is a must-have for any kind of shooting. So, for Pro-i and mk4 models at least, please tell Sony to upgrade them. 2. Do mk5 has autofocus and manual settings, plus a much better BOKEH for front cam (ideal to have also for video…)? Mk4 front cam BOKEH shooting (64.1.A.0.891 version) is still so bad and really needs improvement by software upgrade. 3. Burned pixels for 1s speed in manual mode? Mk4’s still is suffering by this issue even with the latest upgrade, and now it’s almost one year from its release... 4. Filming in low light spaces like in a club with chaotic lights do mk5 has a better flash LED for it, face/eye detection, or it has better low light brightness for the wide sensor (at least)? Mk4 filming in dark spaces is a nightmare and its LED intensity is a joke, also the brightness is low by software processing only by HDR is somewhat ok (cinematic is useless for that dark in mk4). 5. It has brighter screen than mk4? 6. How much ISO it uses for night or low light shots? 7. Do you know an e-mail address for sending directly to Sony engineers for our testing or issues? So without all these the issues above not being fixed, the Xperia 1/5 devices are still very expensive and mk4 is hard to get still. Also, I have been using as a secondary phone the ACE 3 DOCOMO (SO-53C) device, brought by a friend of mine from Japan, and that SO-53C allows Gcam mods to apply so well that its 5 and 13 MP cameras can be improved to even better the mk4’s and more others Xperia! So please let Sony know that mk4 and mk5 really needs this Api2 front and rear compatibility for the money they still ask... With great admiration for you and Sony's amazing capacity to improve, Thank you so much for helping and answering!

From France : great high level review, gorgeous pure natural model, beautiful Japan. Japanese goods, Japanese manufacturing, Japanase work (for example Kento Cameras), Japanese technoligies are the best !!! This Sony Xperia 1 V shows widely that Japan and Sony are still number one. I will get this phone to pair with my Sony 7 R II and my Leica. Thank you very much for this great video.

This S-Cinetone is really good.

Definitely going to upgrade from the 1 mk 3 to this

The Kohki and Irina vids are my favorite

This is amazing! 🔥

Irina 💚 Kohki 🖤 Xperia

great video, nice chilled vibe too, do you change any of the settings on your fx3 for cinetone such as sharpness etc?

This video made by you makes everyone now understand the real capabilities of the camera of this thousand $ phone, and even myself having thought to buy this phone for my small videography gallery on my Instagram lol , very great camera review and test 👍👍👍👍👍👍

Just preordered. Upgrading from the 1 III. Sony phones are underrated

Really impressive results 👍🏼

Good video bro. Can’t wait for the next.

I decided to commit to jumping to the Xperia 1 V from the Samsung S22 Ultra. Although the Xperia may be lacking from a basic camera usage compared to other common consumer phones like the S23 Ultra or Iphone 14 Pro, as a photographer I love the details that the Xperia retains for post later on, I also love how the Xperia has better UI for manual shooting compared to others, stack that with the amazing AF and AF peeking that alone makes the Xperia a better camera experience for me versus other brands based on the content I capture. Great video! Can't wait for the phone to ship in July.

Amazing! Stunning!

Omg i didn't know about the look-out in Yokohama but i think I've seen it from the tower. What a cool looking place and it looked fantastic on the new Xperia. I'm planning to buy one when it's cheaper (maybe black friday).

hello kohki, first of all, amazing video, i'm truly surprised by the sony xperia, incredible image without post processing secondly, i don't know if you usually do this, but between this and the newest pixel phones by google, only for camera and photography, which ones do you prefer? thank you and keep up the amazing work

U did a great job boddy ❤

Getting it for sure. Xperia 5 III here

Love the thumbnail for this vid!

made up my mind .. my next phone hehe .. im still using Xperia 5 Mark 1 .. excited to this Xperia 1 mark V !!!

Beautiful video 💐💐💐👏👏👏

Nice video bro. This phone looks awesome.

I choose the girl over the phone 😍😍😍 She looks stunning!

Can't get it until July, from Amazon. Great review.

Waiting for this :), i have the s23 ultra currently

Conflicted, half the videos are like yours where the basic point-and-shot mode renders fantastic results and then others, not so much... I'm a photographer and whilst I can really appreciate the manual modes on this phone I really do just want something which can render images fast, simply and decently like your demonstration did... otherwise I would just stick to my dedicated cameras. Your video has pushed me back into the want-to-buy camp... hopefully I wont be disappointed!

Best video I've seen yet!

The footage just wow. Good job man..The color seems to be more appealing compare to pro I, does the mark 1V apply a different color science? I’m using Xperia Pro i, hearing you this Xperia 1V replace the pro I. May i know is it a big jump in term of photography? Do you miss the 1” sensor from pro i? I am planning to switch as well, the heat issue in Pro I is really bugging me off even it is just for light usage such scrolling on social media. Does that issue is gone in 1V? Your opinion will help me a lot to decide, thanks

Great video 👍

kohki 🤝 irina combo 💥

The creativity of the user still required to get full potential of this phone.. and this how it works.. nice demo..❤❤❤

Amazing cinematic videos

Incredible camera. 😮😊

Love ur vids !

Oh I am tempted to get this to upgrade from the 1 III. Although I'd be interested to know what's the difference in shooting RAW between this and the Pro-I, and why you prefer this more than the Pro-I.

Looking forward to the Mark 6!

Now now king in the world's Sony Xperia 1 v smartphone. Best photographer and better job... Thanks bro 🙂 i more impressive this video.

She so cute that everyones forget about the phone, whe're here for the xperia. The cutest Instagram model i have seen. ❤

My current phone is 1iii. Gonna buy 1V for presumably better heating situation and new software features i don't have on 1iii + hope get those free headphones). Struggle with video shooting with standard camera app so forced using FiLMiC Pro and have high hopes for new video features to get off filmic subscription)) Didn't get how it's a biggest jump in mobile technology but really want to believe. Luv night photos style, it's not a 'day at night' so really relieved by that. Sony is the best!

Looks great. I dont need spec reads. Just want to see what it can do. Thanks for this.
