Nicely done! I bought the a7Cii as it’s by far the better hybrid camera, has a nice EVF when your outside in sunny weather, never overheats when I do long form videos like concerts or stage-plays or weddings and has more custom buttons as well as sharper 4K videos due to it’s downsampling from 7K resolution to 4K. Brilliant and I LOVE IT!!!

@Cracky003 7 месяцев назад

The 12800 base ISO on the zv-e1 is worth more to me than the viewfinder and MP on A7C2. I work overnights, and the majority of my pictures are in quite low light. At the same time compact lens to match the smaller cameras are often 2.8 or 4 maximum aperture. Have no detail loss at 25600 ISO is an absolutely insane feature in a camera this cheap.

@jasonlau8944 8 месяцев назад

I still pick A7CII instead of ZV-E1 for video shooting for 70% outdoor work, because it had super 35 crop mode, which is easier for run and gun situation like events shooting or wedding that you might not know what will be happen next forever, ZV-E1 sensor is great, specs are great inside a small camera body, but however the potential overheating issue is a extreme downside, It just can't give me enough confident to use during work, nor the clients... for proper work might consider A7S3/FX3 better with no overheating at all, but I think I will defintely wait for A7S4 or FX3II in the future when they have the AI focus features and Dynamic active features, because now A7S3 been 3yrs old already since it released.

@DavidZhou 8 месяцев назад

100% agree with your take! a7C II ends up being a better video camera as long as you don't want/need the higher frame rates or dual base ISO at 12,800. For more general work, I think the a7C II is fantastic (just look at all of the happy hybrid-shooting a7 IV owners). I still love my ZV-E1, but it does have it's extra considerations :)

Just spent 5 days straight shooting in Santorini getting clips for a travel video and it didn’t overheat, I think it’s really just when you’re filming 1-hour+ videos, streaming while charging via USB-C, or leaving your camera out in the sun in 90 degree plus weather 😁✌🏼

Hey mate -- how sure are you regarding the C2 being better for streaming over the E1? It's such a frustration to me that a £2k+ camera has this issue. What's different about the C2 body regarding this? Thanks so much

@DavidZhou 7 месяцев назад

It seems the ZV-E1s processing is a little bit more intensive resulting in higher heat output. Again, anecdotally, the ZV-E1 has overheated on me both times I streamed with it while the a7C II did not (in test environments). There are workarounds that will allow the ZV-E1 to stream without overheating but the a7C II is good to go out of the box. Definitely frustrating, like you said. Hope that helps!

@DavidZhou 7 месяцев назад

I think the Sony 24mm f/1.4 GM is the perfect lens for shooting gym content, but if you want to be able to get a variety of angles/looks and don’t mind the extra size, I’d check out the 24-70 f/2.8 GM, just be wary of the front heavy weight haha. Another option is the Sony 20 f/1.8 G, it’s smaller, it’s a little cheaper, and is the perfect focal length for vlogging, but you’ll need to get a bit creative with your angles at the gym when you’re at that wide of an FOV.

Hey there, I recently acquired the ZVE1 for my work and daily photography needs. However, after using it for about six months, I've started to miss having an EVF especially for outdoor events like weddings and other shoots. I find it particularly useful for both photo and video work outdoors. I'm thinking of upgrading to either the A74 or the A7CII. Could you advise on whether it's worth upgrading to one of these models, and which one you would recommend more? p/s: Please don't suggest using an extra monitor; I want to keep things compact! 😄🤣😂

@DavidZhou 2 дня назад

Hmmm… If you’re shooting client work like weddings, the a74 would be nice because you can have the peace of mind with dual card slot recording-plus it has a higher shutter speed maximum which is helpful for outdoor photography!

But at the end of the day if you are doing paid for video get the FX30.

@neveoney7865 Месяц назад

Hi, in terms of sharpness and colors for photos and videos, which one do you think is better? The Sony 7Cii or the Sony ZVE1?

@DavidZhou Месяц назад

You’re going to get “sharper” photos with the a7C II because it has a 33 megapixel sensor vs. the ZV-E1’s 12.1 megapixel sensor. So you’re going to get more details (and ability to crop/zoom on your photos) with the a7C II. If you’re not planning on heavily color grading your videos, they’re going to look similar between the two cameras. The ZV-E1 however can shoot video in S-LOG3 at 12,800 ISO with very little noise, making it the better choice for lowlight and it’ll have slightly better color latitude when color grading, so if you’re planning on diving really deep on the video side, the ZV-E1 is quite a beast. But if you’re looking for an overall more versatile camera, I’d go with the a7C II. Hope that helps!

@bondgabebond4907 8 месяцев назад

As a hybrid shooter, 90% stills vs 10% video, I will go with the A7CR. Why mess with only 33mp when you can get really sharp photos with 61mp. Comes in very handy when a picture is cropped yet retains excellent picture quality. I see many are loving the ZV-E1 for both streaming, making YT videos and street photography/video. Though I have to say the person who loves stills, the A7C2 or the A7CR is the way to go. If you are into video, don't hesitate and get the ZV-E1. You will love it.

@bneil4059 7 месяцев назад

@sunepopp 3 месяца назад

I'd say that even though the zv-e1 is marketed as the more video centric camera, the a7c2 is the better one - also for video. Because... Overheating. Are you getting the shot or not. Or even more important - can you rely on getting the shot? A grainy shot is better than no shot. So this kinda leaves the zv-e1 in a position where it can only be used for small, and not important b-roll. And for small clips of 120p 4k. Let's say this still is an important part of your workflow. But since you're still going to need another camera that doesn't overheat while recording video, you're probably better of just getting the a7s3 if the extreme video specs are important. For me.. I'd always pick the a7c2. Much better value for money and much more utility imo.

@DavidZhou 3 месяца назад

If you’re looking for an overall better camera, I’d say the a7C2 edges out the win just because it’s more versatile-but I still wouldn’t discount the ZV-E1, I’ve only ever had it overheat on me in baking hot, direct sun shooting scenarios, but out of 15+ YT videos and 10+ client shoots I’ve shot with it since this video, it’s only overheated on me once. I still don’t recommend it as a main cam if you have the budget to get the a7S3, but otherwise it’s a killer B-cam to match your A-cam footage and it’s great for a compact solution for max video quality when you’re trying to run the smallest setup possible! Your point still stands and I don’t disagree with it though!

That’s what the ZV-E1 is!

Or... FX30?

@DavidZhou 5 месяцев назад

Funny you should ask, I just picked one up haha-I still think full frame wins every time because of better lowlight capability but in well lit environments oof, it’s a hard choice

@@DavidZhou yeah, I‘m using a FX3 at the moment and searching for a second cam (top down + product shots). So APS-C might be a plus in that situation

@DavidZhou 5 месяцев назад

@@MatthiasKleine definitely not a bad choice, cheaper too while doing exactly what you need it to and it’d be so similar to using your FX3

A7IV or A7Cii? which one to choose?

@Digitalfiendscom 4 месяца назад

Is the significant rolling shutter on the A7Cii improved when you're cropped in 1.5x? I'm shopping for a new camera to replace my old D600 and I've narrowed it down to the ZV-E1 and A7Cii. My primary use cases will be 20-30 min interviews, a bit of cinematic work at various go kart tracks (both of people in the paddocks, vehicles, landscape, and the go karts themselves), webcam/streaming, and portrait photography. My big concern in going with the A7Cii is losing the 120fps slow-mo capability of the ZV-E1, but on the flip side, having a 33mp sensor would allow me to ditch my D600 since I could take pictures (at the track and during interviews/portrait sessions, etc) with A7Cii. I'll be getting a Tilta cage setup for whatever camera I choose. I do like the fan for the ZV-E1 (which doesn't seem to be available for the A7Cii...I guess it really doesn't need it?) I really hate these trade-offs. :) What lens would you recommend for walking around. I like the idea of the 16-35mm, since on the A7Cii in 60fps recording, I'd get a 24-52mm lens but I also like the 24-70mm 2.8 and perhaps getting a fast prime wide angle for walking around + streaming.

I don’t think cropping will help with rolling shutter. It will gain the benefit of 33MP but yeah, you will lose out on some video features if you choose the a7C II. The a7C II really doesn’t need a fan (but can accept the ZV-E1 one from Tilta, since all of the LCD wells are basically the same. 16-35 would be better if you want more wide angle shots (good for streaming, action shots like go karting if you’re on the track, etc.), but 24-70 gives you more range and reach (better for portraits, interview, shooting action from a bit more of a distance). Personally I’d go with the 24-70 just because it’s a bit more versatile (and just pick up like the Viltrox 16 1.8 as your wide prime). TBH, a7C II may suit you better if you want just one camera for photo/video, but if you’re ok with eventually picking up a second camera for photo or continue to use your d600, the ZV-E1 is a really underrated video camera. Hope that helps!

@@DavidZhou Thanks for the feedback! With regards to rolling shutter, I thought I had read that cropping helps because less of the sensor is being read, improving read times, but perhaps it isn’t significant enough. So much to take into consideration. Maybe I should just buy both 😂

@DavidZhou 4 месяца назад

@Digitalfiendscom if you DID get both… you’d have two really capable cameras and could do it all 🥴 maybe start with the a7C II since you want photo capabilities and then if you feel like you’re really missing out on some video features, pick up the ZV-E1 after that? I know it’s not an ideal solution, but may be the best approach!

@Digitalfiendscom 4 месяца назад

@@DavidZhouthat’s how I’m leaning: get the A7cii first and if I really find I need the 120fps or less rolling shutter etc, I can grab the ZV-E1. My thinking is that Sony is going to update the FX3 probably next year, and that will probably get the new AI processor and other upgrades. Thanks again for the feedback.
