This video is exactly what I was looking for. I bought the Sony ZV-E10 two days ago and I didn't know how to set it up the right way until now. So thanks a lot man.

Watching for the 5th time everytime I mess up my camera settings I watch this video....thank you bro such a lifesaver

Great crash course on the ZV-E10 menus, thank you! Just what I needed to get over the initial deer-in-headlights feeling.

Super helpful video and thank you for explaining everything so clearly! Can't wait to get started!

Than you so much for the in-depth and well explanations. I had this camera for around 2 weeks and everytime I tried to find the right settings from other KZfaqrs. It wouldn't work to how I wanted because I wouldn't know what does what and what even manual exposure was, but thanks to you I am able to know and under stand my camera. If I saw your video the time I was looking for camera settings. I would've been taking amazing photos and amazing videos. Thank you again for the in-depth and well explanations.

Thank you!!! Verry helpful 🙌🏾.

Hey Joe (or is it Joel? Couldn't figure out your name just by hearing), My ZV E10 arrived today and I set it up with your Video. Thanks for the help and the free information you put out to the world. For me you are the best ZV-10 Specialist on KZfaq and your footage with it is great! I'll write a comment again when I've tried out the Camera more. Best regards!

All easy, thanks to you! 💪

waww an amazing teaching.. thankyou man keep up the great job you are doing

brilliant video! thanks.

I usually turn off steadyshot (Tab 2 Page 5) when filming something static, because it crops a little bit the video. FYI, the camera will not only save the video, but the gyroscope data while filming (but be careful, it will only do it in movie mode, not slowmo mode). Sony released a software called "Catalyst browse" that can read these datas and apply a stablization on the video in post. You can choose how much you want it to stabilize with a slider.

Thank you broo

ssssssuuuuperfast explanations - and also: everything said!

9:30.. you really saved my, I bought my zv e 10 today and I was thinking that it was broken because my resolution settings were on PAL

Thanks you!

also, at the 22:00 mark, you mentioned that you couldn't get the Dial / wheel lock to work. It has to be combined with the FN button. Here's the explanation: Dial/Wheel Lock You can customize the camera to lock the control wheel and dial when you press the button. For example, suppose you want to keep a constant aperture and shutter settings while filming a video. You may want to press the button to lock the control wheel and dial so that if you accidentally bump the control wheel or dial, the settings won’t be affected because the control wheel and dial are locked. Configuring the Control Wheel and Control Dial Lock → [] Camera Settings 2 → [Dial / Wheel Lock] Select: [Lock]: If you press the button, the control wheel and control dial will be locked. Pressing the button again will release the lock. copied from the great book "Sony ZV-E10 Companion: A Guide to Mastering Your Camera" (p. 329). Kindle Edition by Arthur Cam

Thanks dude, this was the most detailed and well explained video for learning ZV e 10 Camera settings. You explained all things very well. Bought the camera 2-3 days back and was trying to learn myself but couln't. Now everything you explained is clear to me except few things which you have not elaborated like:- - AF Micro Adjust, - AF Area Auto Clear, - meaning of DRO, - Initial Focus Magnification, - MF Assist in Action, - how to use peaking settings, - levels/numbers in Zebras, - difference in AF Transition Speed and AF Subject Shift Sens., - e-Front Curtain Shutter, - Exposure Set Guide, and - how to use Custom Key to send Fn Button to share with smartphone. Thank you so much. This video helped a lot.

Thanks Buddy , i recently bought this.

Thank you

Thank you so much 😊

Can I use ZV-1 for online teaching using the whiteboard ? I'm so curious that the board will be blured when the camera focus on my face

good explain sir

ALL of the below comments are in appreciation of a truly excellent ZV-e10 tutorial and wonderful TV channel. At the 26:00 mark you mentioned you were unsure where Metering Mode is. Here is the explanation: Metering Modes A metering mode refers to the manner in which the camera measures the brightness of the subject. The metering mode configures which part of the scene is measured to determine the exposure. Setting the Metering Mode → [1] Camera Settings 1 → [Metering Mode] Select: Multi: The camera divides the scene into multiple areas and measures the light in each area. The camera then determines the proper exposure of the entire scene. Center: Used for when the subject is located in the center of the image. It measures the average brightness of the entire scene, but places a priority on the center of the screen. Spot: Meters for the subject located in the spot metering target. This metering mode is usually used when there is a big contrast between the subject and background. Entire Screen Avg: The camera averages the brightness of the entire scene. The exposure will remain stable if the composition changes. Highlight: Places emphasis on the highlighted areas of the screen to ensure that overexposure is avoided. copied from the great book "Sony ZV-E10 Companion: A Guide to Mastering Your Camera" (p. 329). Kindle Edition by Arthur Cam

thank you for your effort here, I have a question if you don't mind. how can we take a 1080 resolution with the smallest size in zv e10?

Спасибо, очень классно и подробно!

It is very well described, but in nice and short sentences so that I don't lose attention or patience and skip through it and miss other valuable settings.

great information Brother

How i wish for a newbie like me if you could just slow down a little and not so much in a rush to explain everything…but thank you so much for the settings.

Hi! Great video! As I am going through it now I have a question. On Wind Noise Reduct. you have left it to "off" but you say "unless you totally want to ruin your audio leave that to on." Which left me confused. Should I have it on or off and did you mean that it risks ruining the audio to have it on or off? :) Thanks!

Hello. Let's say i just got this camera and did not have time to study manual settings and would be using this tonight at the park to take videos, which default setttings would you recommend? A priority, S priority, P riority or the intelligent setting? I just want a bright video. Thank youuu

Thank you, followed through but I’m ‘missing’ two things. I can’t put touch focus in my function settings and you have put the bottom of the dial to focus magnifier. Any ideas why I couldn’t add / find these please

I really gonna get this cam for my vlogs! Its that the E mounts for the lens?

Super!

Can you tell us what picture profile you use , what picture profile settigns , and what picture profile is best straight out of camera without us having to edit anything

Really enjoyed the video. For those who said he went fast, you need to go fast to cover all details and menu settings in under 30 mins. I just paused. I do have an amateur question I was hoping you could straighten out for me. With regards to S & Q being set to 1080 60fps. You can’t record audio in that mode and in my assumption, that 1080 at 60 is perfect for talking head shots, where as 4k is better for outdoors and details. For most situations though, I would like 1080 60fps with audio. Can you explain why you record everything in 4k? Or if that is even the case? Any advice is appreciated.

consulta si estoy por grabar un video con que botón puedo hacer un zoom rápido para ver si esta enfocado, vi el video hablas de ellos pero solo logro hacer zoom con la palanca pero ese zoom es lento y gradual, ¿se puede apretar un botón y que el zoom sea directo y rápido para ver si esta enfocado?

Can you make a video related to rode wireless go 11 setting with sony zve10 because there are too much background noice something like previous generation radio

Right, think I've got it. Watched this and many other tutorials. Am i right in saying you forgot to mention that when you set up mr1 with 100 or 120 fps, it doesnt show the slow mo settings onscreen? And it looks like its shooting normally? And we have to edit to slo mo in post? Had me stumped but think I'm right. And now i can sleep..its been a learning curve but I'm getting there. Still not sure why the level horizon line is not showing on screen though. Thx.

Thx for this. One thing: My Power Save Start Time is Greyed out and fixed at 1 minute. Why?

The ZV-E10 is available in the Amazon Prime early Access Sale for £540 in the UK today.

hi and help! I‘ve just picked one of these cameras up but too many items are greyed out in the menu..And it is only offering me 25 p 100 m and 25p 60m...I have tried the factory reset bit it made no diffeence. I am sure I have missed a trick here but cant work it out. Am going to post my sos to some other posts..

thanks a lot! one question pls : ) if I use the Q&A button to 60fps frame rate and record setting is 24p to I need then to change the shutter speed to 1/120? thanks.

What is the best cinematic settings for live streaming?

Nice!! Thank you for this! Can u also teach how to use the slowmotion function?. I am always confused.

Hey , I recently bought a Sony ZV E10. But now in video Eye tracking not working is there any settings for that.

Watched this a few times now. Today somthings not right. I've noticed when setting and using memory 1, calls up 120fps as does yours. But then it does show on left of screen as per s an q, 60fps. That shows 60fps, no audio. The 120fps just shows 120 at top. Mine was ok yesterday, doesn't seem right now. But seems ok if i go to s an q, then use that memory 1. If that makes sense. Very strange. Any ideas?

Can you explain me about audio settings. I purchased rode go 2,BUT I DONT GET GOOD VOICE.THERE are lots of background noice

Is there a way to lock your settings?. I somehow keep unknowingly making settings changes (maybe bumping buttons). I shot a college football press conference and the video had constant trails. I still haven't figured out how that happened.

I can’t set a custom white balance in the zv-e10 ,, I go to M1 , go to set , grey card is in the shot hit enter in center wheel,, and it clicks shuts down for a second and starts back up in S and Q mode, and no change in setting When I get back to movie mode ?

This is great! Do you recommend 128GB or 256 SD card?

Can you please help me out. I can't turn on my focus peaking in zve10 during video

when I use these setting for vlogging I find them great but when I use them for product showcase and product showcase turned on auto focus it takes ages to focus on the item I want it to showcase, can you do a video on best showcase, vlogging settings please.

To follow on from my other post... did a camera reset. Set this all up again. And sure enough, same as before, the 120fps in memory recall only appears in s an q mode. If I'm in normal mode the mem recall shows 120fps, but doesn't show as per when using s an 6 60fps. I.e it still has audio monitors on, still shoots in normal frame rate. Even though it shows 120 fps. Weird.

Nice video, greets from Germany. I have one question about aspect ratio. When i switch in video mode to 16:9, the settings on photo mode will also switch the aspect ratio to 16:9. Do i something wrong or is it normal. So i need to change this seetings every time when i switch between the two modes?

what lens is that butterfly shot? 😍

I love my zv1. I’m just not sold on this one though. I feel like maybe the a7c is better if you are already invested in full frame lenses.

Maximum expandable memory for zve10?

Hello! For some reason I have no access to turning audio recording on. It’s greyed out and I cannot figure out why:( any advice?

Hello there, new to the game here. I will soon purchase one! Very helpful video!!! Question when using the sigma 56 mm 1.4 lens for portraits will the settings also need to be adjusted separately for photos? will these cinematic settings be ruined/ remain the same ?

Hi , Could you please help me to find add copyright info (like our name to be added) on this cam. Not able to figure it out.

is this the kit lens?

Can you advise please why I have only two options under Record Settings when I am shooting on XAVC S 4K? And when I am on HD, I have record setting 50p 50M, 50p 25M, 25p 50M, 25p 16M, 100p 100M, but nothing for 60, 30 or 120

When you change your lense to let’s say a 35mm. Do you have to change the settings again?

Hi my DRO/AutoHDR is greyed out. Do you know why please?

why not use 30 fps on 4k? just due to film stuff? if your going straight to youtube 30 fps is fine right?

Does anyone know why all my custom settings go back to the original settings when I replace the battery? Function/custom settings all switch back to its original settings, please help?

Hello, I am to videography. I'm interested in Sony ZV E10 and was wondering if I will need to buy any lens to use with it or can I just use it straight out of the box, as I'm new and don't really wanna invest much on lens yet.

Can u make a separate video that showcases cinematic settings in super short detail for ppl like me that kinda got confused along the way in this video?

I have an issue with my Sony ZVE10 and the Sony remote ... I can connect the two devices but the buttons on the remote do not work ..... any suggestions??

can you also record 720p?

I’ve lost my dead cat for the ZV1. Do you know where I can purchase another one?

Pretty sure the aspect ratio setting only affects photo mode. That setting has the photo icon next to it, which indicates it only affects Photo Mode

I am gonna travel around to different places, record all kind of festivals, talk with peoples, record special traditions like cheese rolling and record buildings/city. So, is this cinematic the best settings to use or should i use settings like "youtube film making" or "vlogging" ?

May I ask please why I have only two options on my record setting which is 25P 100M and 25P 60M?

I'd like to see the result of these settings if possible.

I only see 2 record options "25p 100M" and "25p 60M" after selecting 4K in Sony ZV E10. Is my camera faulty?
