Sony A7CII Review vs ZV-E1 vs A7IV | The Best Hybrid Camera! 

you are just a big unit mate need a huge grip 😂😂

for what we use the zve1 is actually fine however you would have to use clear image zoom or default the camera to dynamic active stabilisation mode which gives the 1.5x crop. you are right it doesnt have enough megapixels but with either mode some sony magic happens are you really can't notice quality drop offs especially on socials

I'm stuck in the same boat.

@@joshua_wagstaff Me too, damn!

All we stuck there 🤣

absolutely! i love it!

I'm considering doing it too because of that dynamic stabilisation! Why did you decide to make the change? And is there anything you miss about the A7IV?

mate this one is just some nerdy chat, better ones to come haha

dynamic active is cool but it crops in so much it’s not super useful imo, the stabilisation is on par if not better so go for it haha

I'm considering selling my A7C and switching to A7IV. Confused with the new Cii now, any suggestions?

oh yeah absolutely virtually no overheating for a7cii except 1hr for streaming 4k30

i’m only using active stabilisation in both which is 1.1x crop not bad at all. a7siv could still be ages away. Also look at the example i gave all of them use active mode to look the best and they all crop only 1.1x. 24mm cropped 1.1x isn’t even that bad but anything 20mm and wider is ideal

a7cr had same ibis and a7cii so it’s the same really

the zve1 would do an amazing job for you!

it’s just a crop base iso is the same so it’s still pretty great but zve1 low light is just next level

I have a Sony 20-70 F4 G on my A7IV and it also jumps around a ton in active stabilisation which is why I'm going to sell it

@@RyanKoreainteresting, thanks for sharing!

a7cii unless you find a crazy cheap second hand a7iv

you can easily shoot music videos with a gimbal and an a7cii that’s probably the call for you

@@andyescapes thank you for your reply !

thanks mate! keep in mind i’m decently professional and get paid but i don’t shoot huge weddings and what not and one sd card slot is fine by me. A year is a long time and it could be even longer so the wait is pretty long in my opinion haha would be a huge upgrade over a a6000

just a single crop haha

What are you recording that needs 60 fps💀

i thought so too but if you are being a proper film maker it’s really not that necessary

Not for me!

@@carlossapmore for post to slow clips down

Crop is Kinda a deal breaker… you leave so much of the sensor on the table

the r8 with no ibis is not much of a hybrid camera

dm me on ig but zve1

​@andyescapes I'm interested in this for Real Estate photos and video also. I'm confident in the video portion of this camera. How does it do with RE photos?

i have not had that experience can’t say that’s true

a7cii just because you already have that fx3 sensor would basically be the same thing again

@@andyescapes Thank you

yes

it’s not a low light test shot at f1.4 base 800 iso, could have easily used 3200 second base iso but that would have been too bright

Where do you live?

the lack of stabilisation would be a deal breaker for me personality but that is a bargain

@@Michael-te6tb I live in Thailand, lots of camera deals going on atm, but the price of the acii from preorders I’ve seen here seem to have it priced near the zv-e1.

holy shit, I am going to have to stop by Thailand again. I love your country.@@AFKay.

i used different lens and used different iso read the text i put, anyway it was a stabilisation test not a low light test

I was very concerned about this too but thanks for clearing that up lol

i mean firstly i mentioned rarely ever happens at all let me reiterate and then obviously it’s better to lose one clip versus your whole SD card. Of course losing a 10 minute clip isn’t ideal at all but again it doesn’t happen if you use quality sd cards

Just get lost mr nobody 😆

@@hellolau yet, your channel has no videos or subscribers in over two years. 🤣

@@matrixatelol dramatic, u sound like u sit down to pee.

That's not how it works bro Each person has their own workflow It's like objecting to "there's no best camera, there's only best camera for your needs"

AF + IBIS 1800 vs 2200 is not half

i posted my 12mp photos on ig and no one said a thing 😂 again i never said it’s going in a huge art gallery. also fx3 and zve1 are literally the same sensor how is it pointless

I’d say a7c 2 video is trash compared to zve1. I’m a sigma fp user so I’ve got best of both worlds except my autofocus is completely unusable and file sizes are enormous. But sigma fp is constantly getting updates and you get the feeling that the zve1 is purposely crippled in the overheating department so they can protect their fx lineup

I appreciate the commentary and your tests comparing stabilization and low light performance! 7:09 clearly the A7C ii has better active stabilization over the A7 iv, but the A7 iv is showing better detail and brightness in the dark areas. In this limited sample I can appreciate straight out of the camera details with the A7 iv that the A7C ii isn’t giving me. A7C ii wins the test of handheld stabilization, but the A7 iv has the better video quality here. I have had my A7 iv for 2 months now and the idea of the improved hand held stabilization in the A7C ii for me would be the most compelling reason to think about upgrading. Still, I’m not putting a $2k USD valuation on it, especially after just spending $2500 USD on a very fine piece of engineering, (A7 iv). I am a hobbyist and don’t use my camera to make money. If others like me don’t need the razors edge latest and greatest it’s cheaper and you’ll get better stabilization with a gimbal, albeit at the expense of having to bring along another piece of gear. I have the Zhyuhn Crane M2S($150), and it gives better stabilization than anything handheld can produce.

@@Cthames123 gerald undone said it himself it’s a7iv is identical to a7cii in video and photo capability and i have no reason to think otherwise myself as well
