Avoid These 10 Surprisingly Common Sony ZV-E10 Mistakes 

Hey Leon, awesome stuff. Thank you for the feedback. Appreciate it big time. Let me know if there’s other videos I might have missed that you’d find helpful 🙏

Hey Kevin. Thanks pal. I really like that Sigma 16mm and it’s the one I’ve probably used the most on the ZV-E10

For most situations I'd just use shutter priority. Intelligent Auto is something I haven't really used to be honest, and I'm sure it's fine. But once it starts messing around with shutter speeds then you run the risk of the footage getting stuttery or laggy, depending on the lighting scenario. Manual IS the way to go, but again, it comes down to what you're trying to deliver to an audience ultimately. In most cases, I reckon nobody cares what mode it's being shot on. But pushing things to manual gives people a better understanding of what does what so when things aren't working out for one reason or another, they do have a good insight into whats happening.

Hey Mike 🙏 awesome stuff. Well wear with the new gear pal. Appreciate all the support

What lens are you using

Hey Derek, I'd hold off for a few weeks. Rumors floating about point to a new Sony camera being announced (Sony ZV-E1 maybe) towards the end of the month. Generally speaking, Sony cameras have never had amazing stabilization historically speaking. The Sony ZV-1 is definitely one of the better ones. But that aside, it's not a huge issue to deal with either as it can be fixed in post (which is painful I know) but the easiest fix is to reduce the amount of movement the camera is doing, so depending on what you're shooting, it could well be perfect!

@@VicBarry Thank you Vic, I feel good taking your advise to "hold off for a few weeks" or even into the summer. I have a gut feeling hunch, your right! 👍👍

No worries Derek. Be interesting to see what happens over the next few weeks

@@derekhorsburgh6238 Weeell, unless you are ready to spend 2000$ you might as well buy zv-e10 now, the zv-e1 is much more expensive, but it does fix the problems of zve-10.

Depends what type of video you're filming. I do almost exclusively tripod videos, and it works fantastic for those. For run & gun shooting? It's awful!

hey, did you find any solution ??

@@shiv.69 no, still looking for a way to solve this without post processing in any software

The Sigma 16mm lens will be ok. There is a heavy crop though so you might need some wider like the 10-18mm. But anything 16mm or wider will be good. The aperture defines the amount of blur. So 1.8 or thereabouts will give you lots of blur.

Yeah. I’ve seen that happen a few times but haven’t experienced drop in resolution or bad exposure. It’s just rotated in post and looks fine.

Hey Brendan, it very much depends on the type of light to be honest. Some will flicker like crazy others won’t. Regardless you’ll record video anyway. Slow motion in ntsc is 120fps and pal is 100. S&Q mode doesn’t record audio. Just bump up the frame rate in the video settings in normal video recording, but to get 120/100 you’ll have to be in 1080p

@@VicBarry Thank you.

Might be worth digging into the focus settings and looking for sensitivity. I no longer have this camera so I can’t be sure but if I remember there is focus sensitivity settings. Also worth looking at the focus tracking and what it’s enabled for (human, bird etc) But if it’s happening with you or a person in shot then it’s a sensitivity issue and possibly a lighting issue.

Hey Matthew, yeah, the rolling shutter is a pain alright!

Hey Eligijus, it’s always going to have the crop. The actual size of the lens is the difference as well. Because you can put a full frame lens on an apsc camera but the other way round, while you can, there is some serious vignette. Hope this helps

@@VicBarry so mine sigma 16mm on a zv-e10 is actually 22mm? But on full frame it stays 16mm? Right?

@@3ligijus Correct!

@@VicBarry damn, I see now. Thank you !

No problem!

What focus mode do you want to change it to? Manual? What lens are you using and how are you changing the focus mode?

@@VicBarry Hi Vic. I don’t really know at all about camera so I just use in Intelligent Video Mode. However, it doesnt allow me to change the Focus Mode from AFC to the other modes. I think the camera doesnt allow the to change the focus mode when making the video so it is automatically set up in AFC which makes me hard to get my videos focus with all faces in the crowd or everything on the screen. It’s because AFC makes the focus search a moving object or a closer one. I hope I you can understand my explanation

The Sigma is a faster lens. The aperture is 1.4 so more bokeh than the kit lens which from memory has an aperture of 3.5

Just be in video mode / HDMI out

Thank you! Cheers!

If it’s indoors it could be a light issue. Make sure you’re in the correct region for where you live.

It doesn’t

Thanks ..

Thanks ..

Hey there, glad to hear you've got to grips with the Sony ZV-E10. This issue is very much down to a personal choice / perception. Not sure I can help here, but, if it's crowded (street photography is great btw) during the day, go out at night for some night photography (long exposure etc) - Back to street photography for a second though. The Sony ZV-E10 will take any E Mount lens or others with adapters so there's a great opportunity to capture your city from a distance. That's an option. A crowded city street is absolutely full of stories. From street vendors to taxi drivers to people drinking coffee. Do time lapses. Do short form videos on the people in the city. Do something with what's in front of you. At the very least practice composition and layout for photos and video. What is worthy of taking a photo of? What is worthy of taking a video of? That's very much a personal choice and it's definitely something that not everyone will agree with. Sure, we can all say "I wanna shoot something cool" but a lot of the time "something cool" is very much subjective. Let me know if this helps

@@VicBarry That helps very well! Thank you .. I'll try everything you mentioned. .

Awesome. Best of luck. Let me know how you get on

Hey there. Technically it's 1.44, so I rounded down instead of up, but either is correct I guess :)

Hey there. It’s batch rendering is ultimately I feel what you pay for. To stabilise multiple clips would be a heavy resource so I can’t see it happening anytime soon.
