GET THE SONY ZV 1 here! geni.us/hI2L

I have no idea what I’m doing, but my camera is now set up exactly like yours. Now I have to figure out how to program the vlogger tri-pod thingy. Thank you for the video.

If you have a ZV-1, this is by far the best video for getting started. The best (and I've watched a LOT).

does not have any camera but watched this all the way till the end

Just got my zv1 recently, I’ve found your videos about it extremely helpful. Thank you!☺️

Best video I have found for setting up the sony zv-1...

One of the best tutorial for ZV-1, thank you for the lessons

Wow....that was very informative settings for the ZV1. Thank you! There are so many settings in the camera and it can be a quite overwhelming for a novice shooter.

May God bless you Sidney, I've looked everywhere for me to be able to use my ZV1 for shooting youtube thumbnails, now I can because of this very thorough tutorial. God bless you real good

THANK YOU! I was about ready to return my ZV-1. I had previously looked up a few videos on camera settings and the color left a lot to be desired. I decided to look for a few more videos and saw yours. You actually talked through what the settings are and why you are changing them (versus others that just said "change this to this" without the why). I was able to use what you suggested and adapt based on the information you gave to find the best settings for us!

Love this thank you so much. Just had time to go through it.

Sure helpful, thanks! Literally watched this 3 times over (and drained my battery in the process) making sure I had everything down 😂 Got my ZV1 just this week after your recent video about re-buying one.... loving it so far!

I just got this camera for my everyday quick vlogging! lol. love it so far!!!

Totally set!! Thanks for this!! 👍💕

Great video! I had no idea what to do wuth my camera. Deepest gratitude!

Just bought the Sony ZV-1, and this video is so helpful. Thank you very much!

This video was very helpful. Thanks!

Thanks for the help. Super appreciative.

I love this camera and I look forward to seeing how you set yours up!!

Super helpful. Thank you so much!

thank you for the very good tutorial , now i can make good settings for zv 1

Great stuff as always! Thanks so much for sharing :)

Thanks so much for this - that settings menu was impenetrable

Loved the intro. Haha yesterday was my birthday and this was very helpful!

thanks for your guides!

Nice Video!!!! Perfect and thank you very much!!

This is an incredibly helpful video, so glad I found your channel--just subbed! I recently purchased the ZV-1 and looking forward to using it on future adventures.

Thanks for the info!

You can have your photography default on the M Mode or whichever rather than taking up a MR Preset. That would allow 3 to be normal frame rate 1080p for example

Thank you!

Just bought a ZV1. Thanks for the details 🙏🏻

MR ... omg why i never used this!! Thanks man!

Thank you so much 😊

Thanks a lot!

Thanks!

Thanks. Between you and a few others I may have this figured out. I have been recording my YT channel on an iPhone for a year and a ha,f. Time for a change!

Finally how to shoot pictures easily thanks !

Thank you

It's such an awesome camera, the animal eye tracking and continuous auto focus for video and stills is by far superior to other cams, sold my fujifilms xt3 and xt30 kept the xt1 for my manual lenses, and if it wasn't for the noise levels on this sensor and limited zoom it would be the only 1 camera you need

For strictly photography how good is this camera? With this camera in Aperture priority, how would you change the shutter? And one more thing, how do you get that beautiful blur in the background?

That ND Filter shortcut was a great idea!

Great video! Do you use a screen a protector on this model? If so does it affect the ability to flip around? Thanks!

Thanks👍🏻

Thanks dude

thanks for the video setting mode>MR memory recall video>M manual file format> XAVC4k steady short>standard record> 24p 100m shutter speed> 1/50 apeerture> F1.8 ficus area>wide wite bal>daylight creative style> potreait picture profie>pp10>gamma>hlg2

Thanks man!!!

Best video by far on KZfaq on ZV-1 setup. I took my new camera and followed you step by step to get an awesome looking camera for video. You made this camera worth the money. Thank you. I’m hitting all the buttons.

Hey!! I came back to set it up again cuz mine was defective, got a replacement as I definitely love what it can do so wanted to give it another try. Anyway what other setting would you recommend for shooting cooking video? I already have made the settings to yours right now!! Any suggestions will do!! Thank you!! Stay safe and blessed 👍

What would you suggest to be the best settings for shooting a podcast in a home studio? I record on StreamYard and then download the episode for editing. I have some LED lights for lighting.

Hey thanks for such a wonderful tutorial, I have a question how to turn off the mirror effect ? every photo or video I have recorded of myself is mirrored.

nice camera..i love it

im new users of ZV1, idk why I use this setting even though I don't really know what those functions are. hopefully, will find out soon. thanks for the vid!

can you do a video comparing the sigma 16mm f1.4 at 2 times clear image zoom with the sigma 30mm f1.4 at normal focal length?

I just discovered. your channel, thanks for the tips. Between the Sony zv1 and richoh gr iii, do. you know between the 2 which has better photo quality?

thanks for helping. this video is very useful if, like me, you have just bought a Sony ZV-1!

Great video! do you know if the camera keeps the M1 M2 M3 presets after resetting it? Thanks!

Hi bro so for the HFR set, which you are using for the setting? 250 or 500 or 1000 frame rate? Thanks for the video helped a lot!

Thanks a lot. Nothing has been as detailed as this. By the way what software do you recommend for the Post Production ? (Easy and Simple One )

thanks for this. still trying to decide whether to get this or the rx 100v. can you bracket max iso on auto iso and min shutter speed on auto shutter? and how do you change aperture/ss on the fly? do you have to go into the menu or is there a touchscreen option?

Thank you!! Today IS my birthday. 😂👌🏼 And thanks for the great explanation ✨

Great video! Is there a way to lock the White Balance on the Sony ZV-1. I’m a trainer, and while I’m moving in my studio, the balance continues to adjust. What can I do using the Sony ZV-1?

Cool video, Sidney. Saw some people complaint the stabilization, your thoughts?

Does your LCD automatically flip the recording upside down as you rotate the screen after pulling it sideway? So basically your LCD screen mirrors real life? Thank you!

great video - did I miss the viewfinder gamma assist (I just spotted it while menu diving, but did you mention it?) - love the camera too :) [Setup1/Page1/Gamma Disp. Assist]

Hi, what do you think is the best setting for someone that makes build and how to videos on KZfaq are? I record with a lot of hand and body movement and I want the shots to look clear without the camera going crazing on trying to focus in and out on my movements. When the camera does stuff like that, I get a some recordings of focus in and out blurs. What is your suggestion for a more clear shot with body and hand movement? Thank you.

question if i factory reset my camera now will my software update go back to vesion 1? i just did the software update for 2.1 on the sony zv1 i want to do the camera setting now but afraid lose the software have to do it all over let me know if resetting will lose my software update

Hey Sidney ! As you directed in the video , I restore my cam and after that I tried to follow your steps then I figured out I have no 24p options in record settings . Can you help me about that , please ? Do I need to reboot the system of my camera ? Thanks 🙏

Just got a zv1 and a friend of mine wanted me to shoot a small concert for him what would you recomend for this please 😊

Dude thank you 🙏🏻

the best video

Hello @Sidney Diongzon , i just bought ZV1 but i cant find 1080 30fps option only 100, 24 and 50. Do you know how to add other fps option? please help thanks

First time here, great video.

What’s the best setting for a sooc video no editing required? Just for casual everyday family videos

Hi. Thank you for this. I try to apply this settings and we will see!. Anyhow I just have some concerns like the file format. Fo example, you choosed the 120p but in my settings its only 100p other than that I have no choice.

Hello. Can I ask if I want to install it on sony zv1 to shoot a close-up vlog of food? I really need your help on how to install.

I HAVE A QUESTION PLEASE, SOMEONE, ANSWER THIS like a sony a7siii came with a new meanu system them does all the other sony camera gets an update for meanu

Hello there this is informative I don’t know mine is showing very dark footage used two LED lights and a really ring light but it’s so dark

followed settings switched to ntsc, im in the uk though and really bad flicker with lights, any way around this?

Do you have a video of the result from these three settings? cheers!

Hi Sydney , how are you doing. I use Sony ZV-1, I just faced an issue while using at 4k 24fps the face/eye autofocus isn't working. Is it only with my camera or is it problem with ZV-1. Earlier, if I remember it correctly it used to work fine. Please advise some solutions.

I just bought this camera do you think these video settings would be good for a channel like mine? All my videos are how to videos DIY. Thank you for your time.

I'm using this camera for my channel. One thing to keep in mind after making these changes proposed in this video for video mode is you're now filming in HDR. You've got to change some settings in Final Cut Pro to be able to process this right. Also, these changes made my shot very yellow. Still playing around with this - I don't know much about these camera settings.

hi, I am a new subscriber for now. Just curious my pp10 doesnt have the further setting like gamma, black gamma and saturation etc. could you advise why?, my camera model is sony zv1

Would this be a good camera for shooting the eclipse?

Even for indoor you recommend setting the WB to daylight? It gives me an orange look, how do I correct in PPro if there’s no gray or white in the shot? Just play with the color temp?

Thank you. Subscribed. I've had the ZV-1 since it came out with Vlogging handle. I like the entire set up except for my line of work stabilization has been more of the struggle. I have invested in a Zhiyun Crane V2 gimbal. It's OK but I do like DJI gimbal's I have had with my phones better and going to maybe add the DJI Ronin SC yet. I also tried to download the Sony app for stabilization and cannot get my (newer this year) Surface Notebook 2 to accept the Sony Catalyst software to try... Anyway I'm just "a Carpet Cleaner with a KZfaq Channel" and I'm learning a lot this year having purchased the ZV-1 which is one of my first cameras in a long time. I have bought a bunch of gear to try and keep improving, and I have to say most important to me, I'm having fun! So if you (or anyone) have any info on best stabilization, would appreciate it. I also shoot in 4k and just added a wider lens kit to the camera. Hope to get out in the field and shoot with that soon. I'm a bit laid up since having full knee replacement a month ago (had fun wearing the knees out racing snowmobiles and jet skis in my day by the way 😁🏁) Thank you for this video. Looking forward to more content from your channel 😊👍

Hey bro what sd card do I need to shoot 4K videos I have one but it say can’t shoot 4K any suggestions?

Can someone please reply. On the second setting for video. when I adjust the frame rate and shutter speed to 1/250 dark cloud like image starts going across my screen. why is that? so i have to keep it on 1/125 to have a clear screen

Omg this hurt my head but thank you! I just filmed a whole video in it’s worse settings 😂 it looks so bad but the editing is great😂 now it’ll Look good with amazing quality!

Thank you so much for this structured guidance! I have ZV-1 since 24 hours now and this was the most important thing for me how to create individual settings on this camera. Now i got it! 👍 But i have a question now! Is it possible to make cinematic movies with ZV-1? I mean a movie like in cinema style with black border on top and bottom of screen? I like that way of movies. Or is it only posiible when i use DaVinci Resolve or other Video programs? Greetings from Berlin!

Do you have any setting suggestion for youtube videos (tutorial, make up demo etc)?

Sidney, is this camera recommended as a b cam to the a7siii?

Bro..how do you get the RAW file to work on your Lr? did you convert it? im kinda lost right now..

The tutorials are super helpful so thanks. But often with all the one's I've seen, the maker is too familiar with the subtle presses and doesn't take into account that we can't quite see what actions they are taking. I couldn't follow the set up of the custom buttons at all as it wasn't clear how you are getting to your choices.

So I plugged in a wired livelier mic and there is no audio. Is there an external mic setting or something? When I unplug it the internal mic then begins showing audio.

Hey with these video settings, it’s seems like you’ll primarily over exposed when you go outside. How would you account for that and still get great footage at 60p, just up the shutter?

So what do I do if the picture setting causes my photos to be blurry? Even while holding the camera still or the subject is still? It keeps coming out blurry.

Thank you for the settings! i will definetely try it. Any recomendations on recording indoors. I appreciate the feedback ! =)

Quick question: how do you go from MR 1-3 and chose one every single time you want a specific one without deleting or changing the other two? If i make any sense hahaa
