Hi @Diana Gladney, Thank you for the video, it helped me to make a decision between ZV E10 and A6400, still one last remaining question Will Weather shielding body have a impact for a long use.? I was planning to buy a affordable camera for Short film making. Please let me know your thoughts 😊
Neither of these camera have weather sealing protection in the body so it's not going to be like other similar models that do. I've had my Sony cameras in extremely hot direct sunlight, very humid outdoor situations and some very cold winter conditions that didn't have weather sealing and they never were a problem for me. I'm sure anything you'll be creating for film, it'd probably be fine. You just need to consider the environments and scenarios you'll be creating in and take that into consideration.
Hello diana ! I am looking for my first camera and very confused between a6400 and zv e10. I am not going to vlog with any of those, so the vlogging features doesn't really matter to me. I am really thinking about the build quality of the zv e10 as compared to a6400, and should I pay extra 20k for the build quality ? Can I keep zv e10 as the only camera I possess or is it not good enough to handle all the outdoor situations and is durable, in terms of the body and build ? (As compared to the a6400, which might be a better build )
Great comparison. I have the ZV-E10 but this helped me confirm that I made the right decision. I'm primarily going to do video and most of it RU-vid, Zoom, or other training content. One day I'd like to also have a full frame kit for still photography but that seems more like a retirement thing for now. Thanks for another awesome video with quality and relevant content! You're a model for how RU-vid should be done!
Always a pleasure Jim! The more you create with your camera the more you recognize if it’s right for you or not. But full frame cameras for photography are everywhere. Doesn’t have to be a retirement thing, just depends on the features you want. Otherwise they can be relatively inexpensive. I really appreciate your kind words. I do my best to provide value in my content. 😊
I do car reviews and work on car so 99% of my work are going to be video so I’m not so worried about photo. But I might get different lenses with stabilization .
@@CarStomIt That's a good plan. To be honest, if you're in daylight most of the time, you'll be well served starting off with the kit lens. The one neat thing about the kit lens is the power zoom built-in that even when you're turning the zoom ring it quickly zooms out. It's pretty neat.
Thanks Tom, I'm glad this video was helpful for you! You'll be a bit more comfortable using your camera in no time. If you can use that camcorder lol you got this lol
Can you help me plz , I'd never buy a camera before And I need a great one for content on RU-vid So what's is the best for me Sony zv-e10 or sony a6400
Internally, these cameras are identical and will give the exact same quality performance, one doesn't have a greater advantage over the other. If your primary focus is video, go with the ZV-E10.
You're very welcome! I used the Rode SmartLav+ with the Rode Wireless Go 2 system for this video. The Rode Go lapel mic is actually what you'd use for cameras but I already on the SmartLav+ that uses an adapter to connect to the mic instead.
Thanks for your review this made it easy for me to figure out what I want to buy. Now I need to find out. They are back-ordered for months. But anyways thanks for the video
Glad to be of service! The best thing right now is to keep your eye out on B&H Photo video, Amazon and a few places that may carry a used camera if it's recently been returned. There's supposed to be some all white ZV-E10s coming to the B&H soon and you can sign up to be notified on their site when they are.
@@DianaGladney I have already signed up for BH email so I am watching it daily. I tried it on EBay, most bids where around $1500. I was like NOPE not happening. that is double the price on B&H and even Amazon. so I am going to use what I got for now and keep an eye out. if I am spending $1500 I might as well get the Sony A7C. But if do now I need to buy a bunch of accessories that will but me closer to 3.5 4K. but I want to buys something turn it on and start shooting. I want a good camera that I can learn on and Grow. with and as my knowledge grows then I will buy different equipment's. any ways thanks for the help. ( sorry this is a long message lol)
@@CarStomIt No worries, I get it. It was a hot seller from Day 1 and now many of the APS-C bodies are sold out or waiting for orders to be refilled which may be months away. You may be able to locate one via sites like Swappa, Gear Focus or Mercari and find one gently used. But either way I’d frontally say don’t invest below your needs because it introduces problems vs getting the next best thing can really be helpful in making sure you have room to grow as you desire.
@@DianaGladney I agree that’s why I wanted to keep my budget bellow 1K with a kit lenses so that why the Sony ZV-e10 was so appealing. I so I’ll keep looking.
@@CarStomIt Totally understand. Are you looking for something for on the go content creation or will it mostly be on a tripod setup in a space somewhere?
Hi! I am a bit late to this video but I absolutely loved it! I am a classical cellist looking for a camera to record recitals, which usually happen in poor light conditions. I've been considering the a6400 and the Lumix G95. What would you recommend? I don't necessarily need incredible in body stabilization, but autofocus I believe should be a must as I expect the camera to remain focused as the subjects move. Should I add the ZV-E10 to my list of consideration? Thank you again for an amazing video!
That's awesome! I don't play any longer but I used to play the alto saxophone and the clarinet from a kit through to college. 😊 In your case though, I'd honestly recommend the Sony a6400 over the G95 for 2 primary reasons, 1) Larger Sensor. That allows for greater exposure - plus the Sony sensors are very good with not crippling their sensors 2) Much Better and Reliable Autofocus. As someone who used to use and love a lot of Panasonic cameras, even their latest models still aren't that reliable when it comes to autofocus unfortunately because Panasonic makes awesome cameras. Not needing stabilization is fine considering in that setup you're not moving around. If you can get your hands on a Sony ZV-E10, get that instead, it's definitely much better than either the a6400 or Panasonic G95. The other consideration is the lens options are fantastic from an options standpoint and from a quality stand point with the Sony cameras that are fast, sharp and keep up with the autofocus advancements. As you're navigating the cello body or moving the bow the last thing you want is to have the sides or background autofocus pulsing or constantly reacquiring focus. It gets annoying and ruins the shot. Overall, if you can get a ZV-E10, get it. If not, the next bet is the a6400 from the options you listed but I definitely wouldn't recommend a Panasonic camera.
Excellent information as always. If you wanted to have a 2 camera setup to get different points of view, for making videos for my online course (I can get the a6400 for $808 vs. $698 for the ZV-E10) - want the two cameras for point of views, should I go with two ZV-E10s, or one ZV-E10 and like the a6400 (bit better build, slight weather sealing, EVF), for $110 more? I wonder whether using the exact same camera would be better since the color science would be the same (I don't do any grading).
Nope, wouldn’t get the a6400 because neither are weather sealed and the build quality on both cameras is similar. Especially since these are going to sit on the tripod, that won’t matter. Price per features, get two ZE-E10’s because they’re just better and they’re cheaper for more. You pay more but receive less by going with the a6400 in this scenario.
I would suggest getting the Sony FX30. It has a fan built into it, internal in-body stabilization, dual SD card slots, and records 4k up to 120fps. It’s a fantastic camera and is about $1500; a little less if you find one used.
I’m that scenario I likely wouldn’t choose either. I’d actually look at something like the A73 (A74 when it releases in a few weeks) or something like the A7S3. I’d want something a bit more robust with similar features but weather ceiling to handle various recording environments, higher bitrate data, etc. Technically any camera in the last 4 years can do just about anything but I’d at least go a6600/A7C or A74/A7S 3 for work like that.
Not sure how I missed this comment, but It does take time to render depending on how long the clip is and how much stabe is applied. It has to be done one clip at a time unless you upgrade to do multiple clips at once.
They'd honestly perform exactly the same since the sensor is the exact same. I'd still recommend to you the ZV-E10 because the screen orientation, eye autofocus, product showcase mode, updated USB port, and headphone port. Easily the ZV-E10 all day for content creation.
Hi I need some help in choosing my first camera! I'm a (broke) university student majoring in digital media studies. I've been interested in making videos and (hopefully) short films. The only camera I've ever used was my sister's Canon M10 (but only to take photos). Now that I want to focus on filmmaking (for assignments and in the future), I'm looking to invest in a camera that suits my needs. I hope to find one that I can use to capture cinematic shots but also still within my budget (around $1000 is the max). I've been contemplating on whether I should get the a6400, ZV E10, or maybe a different model. I'm not sure if the a6400 is too expensive for what it offers or if the ZV E10 is too bear (I should invest a bit more for more features/capabilities) I even thought about checking out Lumix G85 because of the stabilization and overall more affordable, but I couldn't find the resolution I was hoping for. I'm looking for suggestions please, thank you!!
Very interesting situation you’re in so not my usual suggestions. Here’s what I think your options could be. We’re in the midst of a chip shortage so getting some camera models would be either overpriced or harder to locate. If $1k is your max you have to consider things like microphones, lightning, memory cards, extra batteries, etc. Panasonic makes great cameras but autofocus is something they champion at but if you’re behind the camera they make incredible cameras and the GH5 or the Fuji XT3 can be found used for a fraction of the original price and some incredible video specific features. If you want stellar autofocus in video that’s Canon or Sony. The more entry-level cameras like the a6400 or ZV-E10 will be a bit harder to find due to the chip shortage without them being overpriced some. When it comes to lenses manual lenses or even vintage lenses will be the cheapest and sharpest but of course will only focus manually. I’d definitely say take the unconventional route and think outside the box when looking at a camera or lens and gear even 2-3 years old is still stellar. That way you can build up your skills and even earn some money towards future gear if you submit your work to some film events or shows to win some awards and/or prize money.
Thank you for your response! I wonder if I should maybe wait a little and save more on another kind that's worth more (quality and price wise). Other models I've seen people talk about are Fuji XT3 or XT4, Canon SL3, and Nikon Z50. Throughout the past years, I've been using my phone to make videos (Samsung S10e). Even though it has its flaws, I still managed to create really nice and stable shots (daytime). One of the main focuses that I'm looking for in a camera is the ability to achieve what my phone can't: lowlight/night shots and cinema qualities (colors, resolution, etc.). I've heard people say the color palette in the XT3 and XT4 are really good (not too sharp but still pleasing), and I agree based on what I've seen. But obviously the price is pretty much out of my reach at the moment and I don't think I'm brave enough to have it as my first camera. Aside from that, I hope to invest in other types of lenses (if I need to do so in the future). Though I am leaning more towards making videos, I'm also into photography (a mix of landscape and portrait, but I mostly take scenic pictures). What are your thoughts on these?
I would say don't be afraid to experiment. We all each love our cameras for a unique and specific reason but for some of us that only comes after we've tried and dislike certain cameras for different reasons. However, that's the goal, to narrow down to what works best for you. Sometimes you will not know that until you try it. Then, you'll determine what your personal preference is and why. If you think you'll get the most joy and use out of a Fuji camera, go for it. You might love it and find a home there. And if it turns out it's not, try something else. You can always trade in your existing gear towards something else and if you're making money from your work it's usually at little to no loss. Go with your gut and get what you think is right for you. Don't worry about what's highly recommended or not, go with your gut feeling.
They would both perform nearly identical to each other when it comes to video. If I had to think through the scenarios you'd be in within a short film, I'd say the ZV-E10 because you can use Sony Catalyst browse for better post stabilization and because it has a headphone port which will be super helpful in checking your audio when you're on location to record. The ZV-E10 would be my recommendation in that scenario.
I am torn between both. I do hour long shoots for RU-vid on auto mode. I use only the room light without any other lighting and the camera I am using is the Sony G7X mark ii. Its sensor handles the low light and I get a soft look on the skin which is good. However I am sick of the recording cap of 25 minutes. Hence I want to upgrade. I love the EV-E10 but the side flipping screen worries me as I don't want my eyes to be looking off in my recordings. I sit about 6 feet away from the camera to avoid face distortion. Which do you recommend. The A6400 flip up screen or the EV-E10 side flip screen. I only use my camera for fixed desk talking head videos.
For that use case, I’d still go with the ZV-E10. Regardless of the screen orientation, you’ll train yourself to look at the lens and not yourself in the screen. It’s something all creators have to learn, so it just comes with the territory.
Wasn't aware that was a thing. All depends on the plans for the content outside of RU-vid. Seasoned Creators usually do more than just RU-vid and use those videos earn income outside of the channel.
@AhmirNawaz That's great, they're literally the same camera and sensor, just a different shell and newer firmware features on the ZV-E10. The performance is the same either way.
That’s depends on what you want or need in a camera. Price is only one factor in choosing a camera. Based on your needs or use case will dictate what you buy as I discussed in the video.
Hai madam Iam a user of nikon p600 since 8yrs ..now i wanted to upgrade to good camera ..need of a allrounder of both photos and videos of traveling ,and family occassiions ..suggest me good one
There are a ton of cameras that will fit that category for what you're looking for. However, if you're coming from Nikon, it'd be best to create a list of features you want and need 90% of time and narrow down your suggestions. Just listing categories of things you want the camera to be great at is still super vague. There are plenty of great cameras but you gotta start with what's most important to you, how you plan to use it 90% and what features you need most in a camera.
Any lens that says "Sony E Mount" will fit these cameras or any modern Sony mirrorless camera. The ones I use specifically for my videos are the Sigma 16mm f1.4 and the Sony 35mm f1.8 lens. I did two videos that would be helpful for you with this if you're new to all this: 1. This one I share the lenses I use for video and live streaming: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-0qCplXqOYW0.html 2. This one I share my top recommended lenses for video with these kind of cameras: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-eueRMOmVpfk.html
Don't you think zv e 10 should have stabilisation as the marketed as vlogger camera , vlogger needs to walk around , company is misleading by saying vlogger camera unless it gives stabilisation, catalyst browser is tedious process, and chargeable i guess
It does have stabilization, digital stabilization. Now, should the camera have IBIS? At this price point, not going to happen with honestly any brand. So, would it be nice? Sure. Do I expect to see it on a camera at this price point? Nope. IBIS is something I'd definitely love to see in a camera like this but it's just likely not going to happen but I'd love to be proven wrong. Plus, digital stabilization + lens stabilization has been more than enough for even the most successful and regular vloggers, that coupled with a Go Pro depending on what they're doing. Is it the best ever on the market, no but it's enough to get the job done. Also, Catalyst Browse is free. All these brands will say any camera is "good for vlogging" or a vlogging camera just because it has a flip-out screen and vlogging is a trending word. At the end of the day, vlogging is based on far more than just the camera.
Coming from using the ZV-1 during my first year as a creator, having the headphone port on the ZV-E10 has been amazing to me. I have avoided so many audio issues this way.
Oh yes! It's such a breath of fresh air right??? I am so giddy that we have that headphone port because I've been there too lol And you never notice until you're in editing lol
You know I'm team Canon, but I appreciate you for helping me stay informed and in the loop within the camera world. I'm curious...which lenses do you have on these? I don't recognize them
lol No worries, as many videos as we have on Canon on the channel, it's all good. The lenses that are on these cameras in this video are the Sony 35mm f1.8 and the Sony 10-18mm f4 lens.
Maybe since I'm upgrading from an old DSLR, but I love the swivel screen on the EV10 better, but love dials and viewfinder and feel A6400 feels more comfortable on hands to hold, granted I have large hands.
Yeah, that very reason is why I'm really waiting for Sony to update the Sony a6600 or create something new that gives you the best of both worlds with some of their newer features in other cameras as well.
Great comparison, was the info I needed for my decision. I really don't like any of my choices because I want 4K 30fps without a crop. I also want 1080p that is as good as an a6000 ... am not sure I can get that with any of the a6XXX 4K cameras. So far the a6400 seems to be my best choice. Thanks so much! Cheers
I'm glad the video was helpful for you! It may be encouraging for you to know the 4k sensor is the exact same in the a6x00 series cameras with the equivalent of roughly a 3cm difference on the cropped image and the 1080p is the same essentially with the better autofocus in either cameras since it's the same sensor in both the a6400 and ZV-E10 camera. I'm curious, if 4k 30fps having a minimal crop in addition to these being crop sensor bodies if APS-C is right for you. Have you considered going full frame and using something like the Sony A7S Mark 3, A74, or even the entry level A7C cameras that are full frame camera bodies instead?
@@DianaGladney I would love to go full frame, but my budget isn't full-o-money for my hobby. I have made about 280 RU-vid vids with a6000, a5100s (2), DJI Pocket Osmo and LG V50's ... One full frame camera probably costs than my entire lot of equipment. I really think the Alpha 7 IV would be the ticket. It seems to check all the boxes, but not in the hobby budget. If I do ever go fullframe, I do have a mix of FE and SEL lenses, so that would be a good thing. Cheers and am subscribing ...
My pleasure! 😊 I’m glad the video was helpful for you. You’re not alone in trying to choose between these two. The a6400 has been a hot seller for a long time now.
Awesome comparison! Great pros and cons for the various types of video being shot, and great conclusions for both! I have the ZV-1 for streaming, because I do not need the interchangeable lens for that. Plus I love the fast "product" focus option! For interviews, or shooting video out and about, I use the ZV-E1 so I can change lenses and for the 4K 60 / 1080 120.
Diana, I really appreciate your content. Keep up the great work! I almost had someone talk me into a 6400 at Best Buy and it didn't feel like the best option what I'll be using it for: travel blogging and talking head videos. Your video just helped me with that decision and I feel good about it. Thanks a bunch! xx
You're VERY welcome! I have been in that SAME BOAT before so I know how frustrating it is to ask them who's supposed to know and they don't lol If you have questions while you're using your camera, let me know! I'm pretty active in my comments section.
Living in the UK, the weather can be super unpredictable. I was looking for a B camera to my A7IV and realising the E10 isn't weather sealed was a deal breaker for me. Seems like a great camera though, the headphone jack really had me thinking damn!
Yep, the A74 is an awesome camera but neither the a6400 or the ZV-E10 have weather sealing. They aren't that fragile though. You'd need to be in some serious weather and considering they build these in Japan and they're weather is humid and wild, I'm sure it'll be fine. I've had my cameras out in super cold temps and St. Louis is known for it's terrible humidity and it holds up fine. However, that's under not use cases. It was drizzling here and I took the ZV-E10 out recently and it survived fine. Depending on how exposed you really plan to be, you might want to consider something more robust.
In my experience, the ZV-E10's screen orientation provides so much more flexibility than the a6400 screen design. This is considering being on the side, in front and behind the camera for all kinds of shot variations. It's been much easier than the a6400/a6600 screen design style.
Thank you for the video, i have been debating this in my head for 2 weeks now, should i get the ZV-E10 or the A6600 since if you can help take a look at my video style and basically would love it if you advise .. also on the lens side i am still a super noobie
So I did take a peek at your channel and for most of the content is talking head style videos so the ZV-E10 would honestly work just fine for that. The a6600 is great for the internal stabilization and bigger but those become unimportant if it's sitting on the tripod 99% of the time because you'll use an AC power adapter for unlimited battery power.
Your comparisons were most helpful. I have the A6400 only for video use. Never take it out. I’m looking for a second camera too add soon. It will be the Sony ZV-E10.
Thank you so much! 😊 I'm glad to hear the video served you well. Yeah, if you're looking into a second camera body, you actually get a lot of extra benefits, plus unlimited recording and stellar autofocus on the ZV-E10.
Hi Diana, I’m conflicted between the zve-10 and the a6400. The zve-10 has extended iso to 50000 while the a64000 goes up to 100000. Is this a massive difference?
First of all, dope channel name. I love Naruto lol To answer your question, the ISO jump is irrelevant because even a pro photographer or videographer wouldn't push either cameras to either highest ISO range for any reason. You're always going to consider your camera limitation, sensor performance (which both are the exact same), the lens you're using in that scenario, what you're using for a lighting source, and of course the settings to get whatever look you want in photos or videos. The sensor is great on Sony cameras, and every scenario is always going to require some form of lighting, unless you're doing some time of astrophotography, and even then, a great f1.4 lens gets amazing results. So, that ISO max cap, isn't honestly even a factor-just a small difference on a spec sheet.
@@DianaGladney Thank you, Diana, your reply clears up so many doubts. Would you say that the Zve10 is better than the a6400? and are these APS-C cameras good enough for professional photography? I am really interested in getting into photography and videography as a side hustle, but Im scared that these sony's might not be up to the mark. What is your opinion on this? Are the pictures or videos taken with these cameras good enough?
Diana, I have been confused in the last 5-6 days on what Sony camera series I should go for, being a beginner but your video has narrowed it down to 2 now - ZV-1 and ZV-E10. I do want to get the best value and also looking at the lens option. It's been a great and very informative video and I am definitely going to subscribe to your channel. Thanks a lot!
Glad to be of service! When you’re considering what’s going to work best for you it helps to think about what scenarios you’ll be creating in to see what’ll best suit you. Then, buy it and try it. 💯
I would still go with the ZV-E10 between these two because you can’t use Sony Catalyst Browse on the a6400, no headphone port, eye autofocus in video, etc. on the a6400. There is just far more features on the ZV-E10 vs the a6400.
Yeah, it's a really solid little camera. I wouldn't expect them to put this much in their budget-friendly cameras but I'm glad that it is. A headphone port is literally one of the selling post the a6600 had as to why I picked it up!
I will be getting the Sony ZV-E10 for overhead shots of my table for product reviews and for B roll. I will be using one Sony a6400 for the main shot and the other a6400 for the alternate angle.
Glad the video was helpful! 😊 The file sizes are going to be the exact same size as the a6400 as the camera internals are the exact same and the video files are programed to be exactly the same.
You can honestly ignore the advertisements when it comes to these two cameras. Yes, they could be used for vlogging but they also can be used for just about anything else. If you're looking for a point-and-shoot camera, you may want to consider the Sony ZV-1. If you're looking to maintain the ability to swap lenses, the kit lens retracts the same way a point-and-shoot camera would but isn't as sharp as the ZV-1's lens but will still get the job done and leave you options to use other lenses later on if you'd like.
There honestly is no better one between the two because they’ll operate the same from lens performance, color grading, light sensitivity, battery life, etc. If I had to choose between the two, I’d pick the ZV-E10 for the screen orientation, headphone port, digital stabilization even though you’re likely to turn that off in lieu of a gimbal or to use the Sony catalyst browse. The ZV-E10 has more video features and a body profile designed for primarily video, between the two, I’d choose the ZV-E10.
are you sure about zv-e10 not having awb-lock? i was under the same impression, but then a few days ago i read in some zv-e10 manual online that it does have it. also, afaik, no other camera prior to a6400 has it. very useful feature for videos and it should be in all cameras, regarding of price/target.
Positive. I teach from my cameras a lot and one of the few people who still probably actually read the manual lol It’s not available in video. I use and test a lot of Sony cameras extensively and the older Sony cameras actually do have it because the cameras were photography first cameras that had video features. The ZV-E10 is very different, being like the ZV-1, which also doesn’t have it. These models are video first cameras (for beginners) and some things are not in these cameras. It sucks but this is also a beginner camera and new creators aren’t likely to know.
@@DianaGladney i don't think a6000, a6300 or a6500 have it. i had an a6000 and an a6300 and i didnt stumble into that in the menus. but its very useful in video
@@skepsys You’re right. It’s the newer Sony cameras, a6400, a6600, etc. The older cameras had the auto exposure lock. Most settings are usually copy/paste in Sonys but the older models didn’t have that. Guess the ZV-E10 follows the older setup omitting it but it’s definitely not in there or the ZV-1. Hopefully, any new releases include the feature moving forward! Thanks for the correction!
I have a big dilemma and that is that I want a camera with which I can make very good videos but can also obtain great results in terms of photography. I'm between buying an a6400 and this one because of your video. But I want to know which one do you recommend me to buy after what I said above? It's a big decision for me that's why I need help.
Performance and quality wise both cameras are identical. The only difference is in the camera body design and the new features in the ZV-E10. There are some qualities like the extra buttons and dials on the a6400 that those in photography and certain videographers prefer over the ZV-E10. It doesn't mean the ZV-E10 is bad at photos but there are some photography assets that are easier when you have the extra customization options such as on the a6400 and a6600. If you're more of a video dominant person, the ZV-E10 is an easy choice. Having owned and used both cameras frequently for video and taken them out for photos or capturing photos at an event, if I had to choose, I'd still go with the ZV-E10 because it offers newer features not in the a6400. This comes at the cost of one extra button on the rear of the camera but for the extra features on the ZV-E10 it's well worth it. Plus, it's cheaper and better. So, if you're operating as a hybrid creator making both videos and photos, I'd still recommend the ZV-E10 over the a6400. Both cameras are excellent but in this case the ZV-E10 is just better. Hope this helps.
The performance is identical on both cameras. The only exception being USB C native live streaming is also built inside the ZV-E10. I still stand by my original decision that if the primary use is video when choosing between the two, I’d always go with the ZV-E10.
Thank you! The Sigma 16mm f1.4 lens and the Elgato Cam Link capture card is usually what people purchase for common live streaming setups. That lens will help them be able to sit close and keep a wide angle shot. The capture card is to get the best quality live stream footage from your camera.
The Sony 16-500 kit lens is a zoom lens, it is not a prime lens. It's a pretty decent lens for what it is. If you want to see what the quality of that lens looks like, you can see it in action in this video here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-FLiM0myl5gQ.html
@@DianaGladney it's normal pricing. The A6400 has always been that much and has not seen a price drop at all. Things are crazy expensive out here in Canada and inflation don't help at all.
@@JustinLetandre O Canada lol That's interesting. Well I can't imagine what that'd look like with inflation. Hopefully it doesn't spike too much higher.
I'm glad the video was helpful for you! They definitely are very similar but the new features they added in the ZV-E10 make it a much better offering for video I think.
I'm actually not a fan of Fuji cameras with the manual dials on top, so I doubt I'd ever cover one on the channel. The autofocus isn't completely reliable on their cameras, not a fan of the top dials, and most don't have unlimited recording. So, that automatically takes most of their cameras out of the running for me. Don't get me wrong, they make awesome cameras, but not my cup of tea for covering the needs of my target audience.
It’s the exact same image quality on both cameras, they have the exact same sensor, same processor and the exact same performance, just different camera bodies.
They both will perform visually the same as the specs are near identical. You'd want to look into getting a specific lens to get a wide angle look, the camera is just the brain, the lenses are the glasses and will impact how it visually looks. Price per feature, the ZV-E10 would work fine and the wide angle lens would be something like the Sony 10-18mm f4 or the Tamron 11-20mm f2.8 lens or a prime lens at a specific focal length that works for you. How wide of a lens you use, is going to depend on how wide you want and if you're going for a prime lens or zoom lens that's wide.
@@chadcarrington1218 Nice! Yeah, it's super lightweight and a lot packed into a little body. Seems they took a few design ques from the older Sony NEX series of cameras and the ZV-1. I didn't I'd use it as much but it quickly turned into a daily driver because it's so lightweight. I hope you enjoy using it! 😊
Depends on what you want. I’m some ways the ZV-E10 is better, in other ways the A73 is much better. The A73 is a fantastic camera but some features are a little bit dated now like the autofocus accuracy, HDMI settings, recording limit, no flip screen, etc. I’ve used the A73 and it’s a great camera but unless you have a different use case for it or will have a monitor for yourself, it may not be as enjoyable but that’s solely a personal choice. Those with the A73 are more like to go the A74 route to stick with full frame.
@@rashanabil1714 That literally could be any camera. Both can be great for that but it depends on your goals and which is camera is more in alignment with that. If it's more so photos, you may be better served with the A73. If you're more video-focused, with some photo needs, the ZV-E10 because it has the latest video specs between the two. Rent and test them and see which you prefer more.
Great review. Looking for major difference for upgrading my live stream content. This convinced me to get the zv-e10. Was worried I might be missing out by not having a viewfinder when I want to take photos but seems like a good trade off.
Yeah, it really all boils down to how you personally plan to use the camera. I'm in front of the camera 99% of the time, so the lack of viewfinder is never a concern. But if you're doing photos, I've seen some creators get the attachment that basically turns the screen into a viewfinder, so that's always an option.
I think I’m going to have to get a ZV-E10 eventually. I need to get one more Sigma lens to round out the trio and then the ZV-E10 to bring it all together. I much prefer a two camera set up and trying to mix iPhone Pro footage with Sony is always challenging because of the color science. All the iPhone pro camera apps are trash and when I shoot over 20-30 minutes, I always end up with some sort of corrupted footage on my phone. Have wasted hours shooting only to discover the files are pretty much unusable.
Yeah, a two camera setup is the way to go! There’s so much more simplicity in that workflow. Never would have guessed iPhone footage/files to be correct. Man that’s terrible to hear.
A fantastic, spot on, no nonsense review, so valuable and helpful. Though Doesn't the a6400 also have the background blur via this apertures button ? Many thanks from Germany,
Thank you! So glad it was helpful! The a6400 actually doesn’t have the “Bokeh Button” or honestly any of the newer settings like that or the Product Showcase mode in the camera. It’s still an awesome camera but you’d need to manually make any settings adjustments prior to recording to mimic those features from the ZV-E10.
