I feel like we should be paying for this tutorial! You’re an incredible teacher. Thank you so much.

Everyone that buys this camera should watch your video! Thanks for all the info 🌞

WOW and I mean wow. Sony should be sponsoring all your videos with top pay. This is insanely detailed I applaud and commend you for making this. I just brought this camera after after obsessing over it for months only to want to return it because its too advanced for me. Then I found your beginners guide and this video. Thankyou for your hard work!! You seem like such a genuine and sweet person!! I liked and shared

I made it to the end - total beginner here. You are a very gifted teacher. Super appreciate your efforts!

This is so helpful. I started to watch a different creator and he was moving so fast. I'm thankful I found you instead. I appreciate the in-depth tutorial. I was feeling a little "over my head" before I watched this.

Wow. How long did this take to make. Ha. Sony should refer all of there ZV-1ii customers to your video.

Have seen a lot of videos, but this video is so specific that is great for a first time introduction to a camera. Will surely make up someone’s mind if the person is not sure if they should buy it. I will buy it

The best tutorial I have ever seen on the KZfaq platform. Thanks for your dedication in this field. Truly helpful!

Extremely helpful for mid level users also. Painstakingly detailed and I appreciate it.

Thanks! Lots of work went into this excellent tutorial. Your channel provides invaluable help to the photographic community. I am impressed!

Omgeeeee this was absolutely perfect. 🎉🎉🎉😂😂😂 Everything I needed to know and everything I had no clue about you covered!!!!! This was the BEST tutorial I have ever watched!!! Great job!!!!! I’m feeling totally prepared to use my camera now!!! Woooo hooo!!!!!!!🎉🎉🎉

Just got my ZV 1 ii.. mehn this video is in-depth thank you! This is my first camera and you did justice teaching a beginner like me ✨

AWSOME AS ALWAYS, Sold the ZV1 first generation about month ago with all accessories, I did not think I would purchase ZV1 II, but here I am.

I'm really appreciate your effort making this video, I had pre-ordered this camera a few days ago, and this is my first camera. Thank you so much, and have a nice day 😁

Thanks for this! We absolutely love using this camera for our travel vlogs!

i just bought this camera and you taught me so much thank you so much! you are an incredible instructor!😃

What a fantastic comprehensive guide, Jason. I am definitely getting this camera. Thank you for making this awesome video!

A very comprehensive tutorial video for the Sony ZV-1 II. I got my Sony ZV-1 II last week, and your video has helped me a lot to get started.

Thank you, Jason. Great, very informative and useful video! I am a long time Nikon user. The tutorial was a great way to get to grips with the Sony ZV-1 II very quickly, especially as I was not familiar with the Sony menu in detail. Looking forward to more detailed videos on your channel. Thanks a lot.

Hi Jason, this video is so helpful...I can't even begin to tell you. I'm starting a KZfaq channel and the Sony ZV1 II is my first camera. Thank you so much for all your hard work.

Thank you thank you thank you! I love how you broke it down to the basics - but in a way that is informative and not condescending.

This is so good! @sony needs to pay you to do these. There is nothing else that runs you through everything on the camera, so good.

I just got this camera! And found this super detailed video! LOVED IT! thanks for the amazing walkthrough!

I dont own any camera, yet I watched the entire video and now am buying my first camera, I also bought some accessories from the links, I hope I follow through and actually buy the camera body

You were so detailed!! Took me to Sonny’s school. Thank you I love it

Great informative video! I just got the ZV1-M2 and this really helped me get it set up and ready to shoot. Thank you!

Omg Jason, thank you so much for posting this video. I recently just got this camera but I have no clue at all. This video is going to be my bible now.I cannot thank you enough ❤

Thank you so much for this tutorial. I just bought this camera and am going to start using it tomorrow for my videos!

Great video! My ZV1M2 just arrived today and I love how in depth all your videos are!

It's the best tutorial and very easy to understand. Thanks for the video and help.

Best review ever...😊

Fantastic video, Jay!!! Wow, well done mate!!! Bought the camera and thanks to you... 👍🤙

Thank you very much, this is super helpful for newbie like me

Great work! Thanks for taking the time to do this.

Thank you so much! As a newbie this is super informative and helpful! 😊

Amazing effort - perfect for using to set up and use my new camera - clear and detailed - will definitely follow u 😊

Wow! What an awesome tutorial! Thank you Jason.

Thanks for all the detail explanation. Really appreciated your video a lot.

Thank you so much! Very useful and very detailed user's guide! Thanks again!

thank you sir

thank you very much.. this tutorial is awesome i just bought mine yesterday...

Amazing, highly informative video, thanks for all the tips it's really helped. All electronic items should come with thorough tutorials like this. Well done man 👍

Super super helpful x

Very very instructive!! I just cannot figure out how to save my personal settings in 1 of the Memory positions and recall it for usage,.

Jason, how do I set the camera so that in video, the camera will follow you as it cops in? This feature mimics having a cameraman following you?

Thank you very much

Thank you for doing this. I wish you could do a video of what settings would you have if you used this camera to pre-record a webinar? (Assuming you had good lighting and an external microphone).

How do you turn off the red tally light permanently on the front of the ZV-1ii camera so it won’t go on when filming? And is it possible to also take pictures while recording video? Thank you for this great video. Very helpful!

Jason - maybe you could consider making a brief video on the specific settings / camera position/ for KZfaq Shorts - this camera has multiple settings so which would be the best settings for vertical videos or is it simply just a case of turning the camera into the vertical position and recording for up to one minute ?

amazing!! thank you so much for this video, you helped me a lot

Amazing video! Thank you so much ❤

This was so helpful thank youuuuuuu😊

Thank you I appreciate this video.

Can you show us how to upload images and video to a Mac? I see you only have how to upload to a PC. Thanks so much Jason! YOUR VIDEOS ARE BEYOND HELPFUL!

1:14:26 I’ve seen this video, it’s super helpful, thank you. Still it would be great if I could figure out how to make the shutter button work to take stills during recording like on the mark I. I used to use that function all the time when filming / taking pics of my kids

Hi Jason , Jason. These are great videos! I am very much a beginner so I’ll probably watch them multiple times. My first question is how the heck do I get videos off of the camera onto my laptop?

Hi Jason, Thank you for this well detailed video. It came at the right time. I’m about to get this camera rn and I wish you can respond. Please, can I flip the screen to vertical? This is to enable me to create content and post IG reels & TikTok. TY so much

Can i take pics while in video recording?

I’m thinking about a 1st timers vlog camera I think the ZV E-10 is too much, this may be easier for my needs, still gonna cost a arm/leg though hahaha…peace

I have been using this camera for about 5 months now and I am having an issue with lighting. I film in a room with abundant natural light, which looks fantastic when I am looking directly at the camera. However, when I am demonstrating exercises or moving around, the camera will get very dark and underexposed. Sometimes I look at the camera to "recalibrate" it before I start demonstrating the exercises, but as soon as I look away the exposure changes drastically. I have it on intelligent auto mode, which could be the problem. If you have any insight on this I would appreciate it so much!

Thank you for the sharing

i saw that you had a cable and power adaptor at the start. was that included? because mine didn't come with it.

Awesome !! Thank you so much !!

Hi, your video is extremely helpful. I just got my Sony zv 1 mark ii. However, it's automatically on intelligent auto. I can't change it to shoot mode, can you please tell me why? I can't really make changes because it's on intelligent auto. Thank you.

Hello, I bough this camera to video tape family videos. I am a newbie. Should i record at 4k 24 like you suggested or just HD?

How can I check the actual battery percentage of the camera? Like how on phones you can see when your battery is on 20%

Can I use my Anker cell phone charger? I have the 70 watt USB-C

Would you happen to know what wired remote would work with the mark ii? I recently bought the rm-vpr1 remote and it does not have the right connection

i like the details, New Subscriber here

May I know how to set to capture low light environment, like example fireworks, northern light and so on? Please share with me😢.. 🙏🏼 Thanks

I didn't even get a charging cable with mine. Strange.

Great video!!!! I have a question, sometimes when I pick up my camera when its off it randomly turns on and I dont know why.. Im scared of it turning on and opening in my pocket or something and damaging the lens?

Can ANYBODY help? When I use this to shoot b-roll, the exposure jumps all over the place. How do I solve that? What setting should I be adjusting so that the sky doesn't suddenly blow out when i move the camera whilst filming an object. 😢

Any idea why the display on my ZV1-II will not function when it is closed against the body?

One thing I can’t find anywhere is dual record on the new ZV1 mark ii. I used to be able to click the button and take a photo and used it all the time on the ZV1 butt cannot get it to work on the mark ii. Does anyone know if there’s a way to do it on the mark ii please?

Very good! Thanks 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Thanks!

Is there a way to add a date stamp to your photos?

I've recently been considering purchasing a camera with the goal of using it for vlogging. I've noticed some bloggers using some elevated footage as Broll in their videos and really like the idea. I'd like to know, for the second generation body, was the HFR feature removed from the first generation body? I'm wondering if this will have some impact on vlogging, especially when adding some elevated shots. Based on your experience, would you recommend that I purchase a Gen 1 body or a Gen 2 body? Thanks!

Hi Jason. Do you know if a Rode Lavalier mic should be compatible with this camera? I attached my external Lav to the camera today and did a test recording but got no audio. I’m not sure if I need to change a setting or if it’s not compatible. Thanks for any help you can offer!

Does the time setting goes at maximum of 2037?

Very clear presentation! What is the maximum supported capacity of the memory card? 256gb, 512gb?

Excellent video thank you so much. I am going in to buy one tomorrow. So you can’t post the video or image straight to social media from the phone. It has to go to your phone or your computer? Will there be any loss of quality through the process? In another KZfaq review they said the video record time was only four minutes, that her camera stops recording at four minutes and overheats. is this true?

how long hours we can use it as webcam ? Is it stop after one hour as webcam too?

My swipe left and right function isn’t working and I tried the settings and still nothing

Great video! Does this camera allow audio devices such as a blue yeti to be connected to it?

I have this camera and I must say that I’m a bit frustrated. I’ve been trying to make camera settings, 1,2 and 3. Every time I attempt to save settings in #2 it over rides my settings in #1. I turn the camera off after it says registered. I thought the update to firmware would solve the problem but no luck. Any suggestions?

Nice , I bought mine but they not giving me a charger .

Hello do you know if there is any lens adapters for the mark 2. Cuz I want to shoot macro if possible on this camera.

Do i need a powerful computer with a powerful graphics card to edit footage taken from this phone or will any modern laptop be fine?

Hi - i just bought this camera for my daughter. She is going on a trip to germany tomorrow. One thing I can't figure out is how to have the background defocus setting to default to CLEAR. It seems to default to Defocus. This is not what she wants. She has to click the defocus C1 button every time she turns on the camera. Is there a way for this to be the default setting? I do not think she is going to remember to change this setting every time and thus not get the video she is hoping for. Thank you!!!

Can you use the rode wireless go 2 on the mark 2?

Can you change white balance when the camera is recording ? Thank you

Hey Thanks for the awesome tutorial. I have my video settings at 4K 24, when I take the memory card out and put into my phone using a card reader. The files aren’t visible… any ideas?

hey great video, but I couldn't find what I was looking for I bought the Sony ZV1 Mark 2 camera a few months ago I'm totally disappointed with this camera, largely my fault for the lack of knowledge, I can't configure the camera to record a smooth walk video with colours vibrant and with clean and sharp images, every video I get with this camera in the auto focus setting is horrible, images without sharpness seem like the image freezes sometimes, if I move my gimbal a little, people's faces look horrible, looking like the from movie the ring, could you tell me a good configuration of this camera for a walk video, a virtual tour with a gimbal or a course that shows how to use this camera, because at the moment my old mobile s10 plus is doing a much better job than this camera , thank you very much

I have a problem w my rec frame rate, i only have 50p, 25p and 100p, this video has more going from 60p to 120p. Whys that so? Thanks

Is there a pause ⏸ recording in this 📷?

how to change aperture and shutter speed?

How do you set 4k in S&Q Mode?

Hi guys, for some reason it’s only showing i can shoot video in 25p..how can i change it to 24p?
