I just got the camera and I'm trying to figure it all out. Wow, I'm new to this and didn't realize I even needed this stuff. Thanks for breaking this down and including the links! I just clicked them got the extreme pro card and reader. Subscribing to your channel now! 😀

[@DianaGladney]

You're very welcome! To help you save time on searching for all the things lol Here's a quick rundown of all the stuff you'll need if you're brand new trying to learn all this camera stuff and what to get. Of course, there are always tons of options but here's my basic list of things I recommend to get: 1. Memory card to record (which you now have) & card reader to transfer content from the card to the computer (which you now also have) 1b. A tripod if you don't already have one. The Amazon Basics 60" is fine if you're brand new. (amzn.to/3eu1YW7) 2. An AC power adapter (If it's going to stay on a tripod in your house 99% of the time) so you don't need a bunch of batteries if you're mostly at home. amzn.to/3pw9G8k) 3. Lights (if you're sitting next to a window cool but if you're recording at night or random times, get lights. This is what I use: amzn.to/3FuCZhc With these diffusion panels to make it soft and even lighting: amzn.to/3pwYKr5) 4. Microphones {Plural because you often need 2-3 types based on the style of content you create.} > For most scenarios you can use with a lapel mic or use a wireless unit like the Rode Wireless Go 2, a shotgun on-camera mic if you're 1-2 feet away from the camera. > Any further away, you'll need a lapel mic to avoid severe echoes that'll sound distracting. If you're live streaming, get a mic for that. Something like that Samson Q2U (amzn.to/3quTCTJ) or Shure MV7 (amzn.to/3z2Qken) is good because it connects via USB to your computer but has ports to grow if you want to. 5. If you're going to live stream, there are 2 main ways you can do that, via USB or via a capture card. > USB is easiest you just need the right cable and this will get you going for that. > Otherwise, it's going to be using HDMI and capture card which is a whole other video lol If you're going to do a USB version, you just need to make sure you're using a data capable cable. (This one: amzn.to/3px0oZR) Hopefully this helps you save some time searching for some other commonly asked questions. 😊

[@Saharan69]

Hi, thanks a lot for a short and concise video! So i have a question, just to confirm with you "SanDisk Extreme Pro - V30" should be able to record all formats (4k 30p & 1080 120p, assuming these are the highest possible settings with most demanding write speeds). So is the card enough to max out all the settings? Or should i go for V60 or V90 instead if i wanna max out settings on my Sony ZV-E10? Thanks a lot

[@DianaGladney]

You're very welcome! Glad this was helpful for you! Also, thank you so much for the Super Thanks, I'm grateful! ☺️ Yes, the V30 SD cards recommended and linked in this video are more than plenty for the Sony ZV-E10. The ZV-E10's memory card slot is limited to UHS-I and V30 speeds only. So while those fancy V60, V90, or UHS-II cards might be tempting, they're overkill for this camera. They will record but you won't get any benefit from recording your content with those kinds of SD cards in this camera. Other creators use UHS-2 V60 or V90 cards, like myself, if you do have a camera that requires it like the ZV-E1, FX30 or FX3, or even the A7S 3 or A74. Basically, the ZV-E10 won't benefit from the extra speed the card is capable of because the camera isn't. So, you're saving your money by sticking to UHS-I V30 cards and it's the right card for the camera.. Trust me, your recordings will be just as awesome!

thank you! Diana. I will be buying the SD and Card reader through your affiliate codes.... Question - do I need an adaptor for the SD card for the Zv-E10 or is it the right size for the SD slot?

[@DianaGladney]

You're very welcome! If you're using a regular SD card like I shared in this video, you don't need anything other than an SD card reader. Other than that, you're good to go!

[@simonucaconmosca]

Hi, thanks for the video. Do you recommend to format the SD card every time you transfer your videos and photos to your computer? If you format the card, the memory recall saves are lost?

[@DianaGladney]

Yes, I do actually recommend formatting your SD card before you get ready to re-use the card. The more valuable the footage the moreI want to make sure after I offload those videos to an SSD drive or upload them to the cloud. Now, if I'm shooting something super important I'll put that SD card away until I know the final video is for sure complete - which means you have to have a fair amount of SD cards. However, if I'm recording 4 simple videos in one setting, I'll offload that footage to an SSD and then reformat the card in the camera to keep from having any issued with the card. If you have Memory Recall locked in and you know you'll need it you have a couple of options. 1) Load those saved settings on a couple of cards so you have them no matter what card you pull out to use. 2) Switch between regular manual video mode and the one Memory Recall setting on the camera to at least have 2 settings to swap between.

Great and timely. Will the memory cards work on a phone like a Note 10+?

[@DianaGladney]

Glad it was helpful! No, these specifically are not the correct size to fit a smartphone. You can use a Micro SD card that includes an adapter to serve dual purpose. amzn.to/3Fbz9Kd

[@b2bfusion]

@@DianaGladney I didn't do a good job explaining - i want to take the video off my (soon to be delivered, thanks to you) ZVe10 and edit it on my Note10+ because it is so much faster than computer. Is this possible with one of the adapters? Or will the 4Gb cause issues.

[@DianaGladney]

I would imagine there’s a way you probably can but most people still transfer that data initially to an ssd using a computer first. You may want to research into some video creators that only edit from a smartphone and see what workflow they use.

[@b2bfusion]

@@DianaGladneyI am thinking it's a zv-10 file formatting issue, not necessarily a cell phone issue. In other words, can a mobile phone read Sony's files?

[@z352kdaf8324]

@@b2bfusion you can transfer to your phone via Sony imaging edge mobile app. But be warned- you'll beat yourself over the head trying to transfer with disconnects between the 2. I have the note 10+and I'm frustrated. The Sony movie edit add on only exports in 1080p max. Gyro stabilization works.

[@OntarioBoatLiftsandDocks]

Great vid! Is there a way to connect the NT1 to this camera? Needs the 48 phantom?

[@DianaGladney]

Thanks! If you're trying to connect a dedicated mic, you'll want a dedicated tool. Get a dedicated system to handle audio at that point. If it's just you, that's one thing, but once you start getting into multiples, it's time to get a specific tool. Trying to split the audio feed with just a 3.5mm splitter isn't ideal. You can get something simple, that's table top like the Vocaster Two: diana.link/Vocaster I've liked using the Zoom H6 before the Vocaster came out, that's even smaller and portable. That's Zoom's Podtrack: diana.link/Podtrack I'd go with the Podtrack for ultimate portability if that's the goal. Or you can get a more portable option that will fit on top of your camera or similar. All of these have the option to enable 48 volt phantom power so you mic is properly powered and still be able to sent that audio into your camera. I like the Vocaster best because it had a dedicated port for sending the audio from the device to the camera using a TRS cable.

[@tidepodchips244]

Minor differences but the biggest is slightly faster speeds and X-Ray proof on the Extreme Pro cards. For most creators they will be plenty served with the Sandisk Extreme cards.

[@aurawhittier]

How many sd cards should a beginner buy? Is one enough?

[@DianaGladney]

Two SD cards is great. That way you’re able to record content on one card, and if you’re editing it yourself, you can be working on the video on one card and still have another available to record other stuff. If you travel a lot, three SD cards to have an extra one for that. But 2 SD cards is plenty for most new creators.

Hi!! What do you think about 64gb extreme for videos 1080p no 4K. Because two SD 128gb is too expensive for me😔 (I have ZV-E10)

[@DianaGladney]

The size of your memory card is your preference.

[@SebaGraneros]

@@DianaGladney yeah! I know! Just asked because I read that 64gb doesn't good for the files in the Zv-e10... but well, I'll buy it... thanks🙏♥ good video!

[@DianaGladney]

As long as it’s an SDXC card, meaning 64GB or larger, you should be fine with the camera not breaking up the files. So the size of the card can be whatever you prefer. I recommend 128GB so that you have plenty of capacity when recording.

[@RalphErvin]

Great video. How do you get video off the card to my Mac without having to removing the memory card each time? Have a ZVE10 but don’t know how to get the video I recorded off to Final Cut Pro. Thanks!

[@DianaGladney]

Glad the video was helpful for you, Ralph! Here's the reality of it, you need to take the SD card out every time. The transfer speeds via Bluetooth/wireless connection via app won't cut it, and you'll end up burning more time in failed transfers or being unable to do it based on the size of the files. The only thing to do is invest in a fast card reader like the ones suggested by SanDisk or another reputable brand OR don't record in the camera, instead record on your computer using Ecamm Live or something and connect your camera up via HDMI. I get this is a bummer, but that's the breaks with cameras, unfortunately. However, to speed up my workflow, that's what I do, I record in Ecamm Live in 4k or I record on the SD card.

Great! Thanks for this. I've just been plugging my ZVE10 into my computer via usb and copying the file directly off the camera, is there any difference between that and using an sd card reader? I'm only shooting small guitar videos for Insta/youtube anywhere from 2-7mins.

[@DianaGladney]

Hmm..that's really interesting. I've never personally tested the camera in that way because usually once I'm done recording on one card, I'll use the SD card reader to start uploading and keep shooting on another card. That way I'm free'd up while footage offloads. The only difference I would see would be two: 1) Freeing up your camera to record more content, as I shared. 2) The speed of the transfers. I don't know what the average speed is when using a USB-C cable vs an SD card reader. However, when I researched the card's read speed, they always specify you getting the fastest speeds the card offers when using their SD card reader. So, that's what I've always stuck to, since it works really fast. I'm sure the speed of the USB cable would factor into that as well. But overall how fast or slow the two are versus one another, I have no idea honestly. If that process of using the USB cable works for you and you don't feel it takes up any time to transfer files, then I say go for it. For me though, I stick to SD card readers so I'm not waiting to access the camera while I'm working or on a live call.

[@jamiepregnell6603]

@@DianaGladney Thanks for the reply! I think as I'm doing small videos, like 2-3mins, usb is fine but if it was like a 45min-1hr podcast then the card reader would be the go!

Hey what your opinion on the 1TB Sandisk extreme or sandisk extreme pro Memory card ? And will it still work with the camera with no issues? I thought the most Memory you have is better ? And would A TB memory card work with the sandisk card reader ? Thank you

[@DianaGladney]

Sandisk is certainly a reputable company but I wouldn’t trust putting that much footage on one card at this point. Even recording in 4k 10-bit files, I’m just barely filling up a 128GB card. So, unless the video are very large like doing 8k, then that’s when larger card sizes are necessary. I can’t see getting one for the ZV-E10 though. A good card isn’t based on the file sizes it’s based on the card specs. So it can be a large capacity card size wise, and still not be a great SD card for 4k video.

[@Sk8tieTv]

Thank you !! So which storage memory size you recommend for a ZV e10? 128 Gb ? 256 gb ? 500 something gb ? I want to shoot videos and photos but mostly videos because I’m a music artist and want to get into vlogging also so I’m going shoot a lot of videos less pictures And I’ll prob shoot a lot in 4k maybe 1080 also And which website or store is the cheapest in your opinion to buy a sandisk extreme pro memory card ? And would you recommend a sandisk extreme memory card ? Or a sandisk extreme pro memory card ? I’m new to this camera world so every advice you give me is very helpful! Thank you

[@Sly-Jack]

About how large are 1080p60 file sizes from the ZV-E10? I'd like to record podcasts but don't know how much memory I'll need.

[@DianaGladney]

The file size is based on the bit rate and how long you record. Expect to be using up a lot of GBs so I’d recommend using the 256GB Sandisk Extreme card. If you record for 30 minutes at 50Mbps (the highest 60fps version available) your file size will be about 13GBs. The longer you record the larger the files sizes will become.

[@talking_tech_with_Steven]

Sony has a 300 read/ 300 write SD card. I got the 64GB version. Sounds like I need a bigger one. I did buy the Sandisk Extremes before.

I can't seem to find the answer to this, maybe you can help. What is the maximum storage capacity of a memory card the ZV-E10 will accept? I just got mine today.

[@DianaGladney]

That's because there are no size limitations when it comes to the camera. The camera slot is a UHS-1 card slot so if I wanted to use a 1TB (1 Terabyte; 1,000GB) card with the camera, I could. So, there's no limitations when it comes to the size of the card, just the type of card.

[@PeacefulPagoda]

@@DianaGladney Oh, wow! Huh, I figured there must be a limit, some devices have one. This is great news, though! Thanks, I appreciate it :)

[@DianaGladney]

@@PeacefulPagoda Sure thing! You can always use a larger card size but it at least has to be a UHS-1 card. UHS-2 cards might even work but you just won’t max the cards capability based on the max bit rate the camera will record.

Nope, V60 or V90 SD cards aren't usable on this camera, it doesn't have high enough settings or the UHS-II SD card slot for V60 or V90 SD cards to be viable. V30 UHS-1 SD cards like recommended in this video are the best this camera can actually accept and use.

However, if you're working with large file sizes and/or long 4k video files, still grab a card reader. The faster read speeds and if it uses a USB-C port or USB 3.0 port will cut down on transfer times like crazy. So, having a good one on hand will only help more.

[@wheins]

@@DianaGladney Hi, how do you use the usb-c port to transfer file? does it just connecting the camera to the laptop using the usb-c cable?

[@DianaGladney]

@@wheins To be honest idk because it’s not a way I prefer to transfer video files. I only do SD card transfers because it’s the fastest.

Thanks Diana, Do you have any way where my zve10 is connected to my mac , i am using remote pc to record my videos via mac using imaging edge, Now once i record the video, is there a possibility to save video on memory card and mac both, (like it happens with photos) , same thing was possible in my nikon camera, but here i cant find any way to do so or copy the files to mac without coming out of remote pc option.

[@DianaGladney]

Very interesting question but I’ve honestly never tried that. I use Ecamm Live for any recordings of my camera to computer because I can do so in 4k, preserve the quality, and pause the video plus other stuff. I know when I’m connected that way I can record internally, but not sure how that might work with Sonys app.

[@TheTechEscape]

@@DianaGladney thanks for that idea , is there any free alternative or atleast non recurring payment software

[@DianaGladney]

@@TheTechEscape You're already using it, that or QuickTime already built into your computer. What I've noticed with that is a difference in quality and the occasional audio drift where there's like a 4-5 frame delay in your audio for whatever reason. So, either way, there's always a cost in more time fixing stuff in post or the investment in efficiency. The best I can offer is a 2-Month Free Trial to Ecamm, use promo code DIANA2MOS - Test it and see what works better for you and what you prefer.

Which memory card is best for Sony zv1?

These same cards recommended in this video. The recording bit rates and resolution are the same in the ZV-1 as in the ZV-E10.

[@SunShak]

Hey, Diana! Thanks for making this video. I have a SanDisk Ultra 100mb/s 128GB SDXC card, but I'm getting this error when I put my camera in Movie Mode: Cannot Record in this recording setting. Either switch to a UHS I U3 / UHS II U3 compatible memory card or change the record setting. My record settings are 24p 100M (as per recommended by THINK Media). Do you have any advice on this issue?

[@DianaGladney]

Yeah, the Sandisk Ultra card isn’t strong enough to handle video like that. You need to get a Sandisk Extreme or a Sandisk Extreme Pro card. Anything else is prone to giving errors or causing issues in video.

Interesting. I have personally never seen that message so I’m not sure why you’re seeing that. You may want to see if Googling that phrase exactly as you see it in on your camera screen and see if it turns up any results that help identify the cause. If not, I’d suggest reaching out to a camera store called B&H Photo Videos chat support. Tell them the exact sd card model and message you’re getting and see if they can help identify what’s going on. They’re super knowledgeable and should be able to help.

Sony zv e10 can support 512gb memory card?

[@DianaGladney]

Yep! If it's a UHS-1 SD card, similar to those I've shown in the video, it'll work just fine. Going up in card size capacity is just a preference and it can handle it. My only recommendation with doing that much data on one card though, make sure it's a great quality SD card. The last thing you want is it to become corrupt and you lose your files messing with another type of card.

[@fahmirizaldii1665]

@@DianaGladney can sony zv e10 support uhs 2 ?

[@DianaGladney]

@@fahmirizaldii1665 Nope, it's a UHS-1 port camera. Even if you put a UHS-2 card in there, it doesn't have the mechanics to do anything with UHS-2 tech, it will still only perform UHS-1 functions. But if you have UHS-2 SD cards for another camera that needs it and you put that one in your camera, it'll still work, it's just overkill if that's your only camera.

Yeah, sure! The V30 cards on the ZV-E10 will be plenty. I'm specifically referencing reliable SD cards like Sandisk, Kingston, ProGrade (seems like regular video folks like them but I haven't tried ProGrade). The biggest thing is making sure you have enough space and an SSD external drive will help if you'll be the one editing as well. But yes, V30 cards will work fine on the ZV-E10 because the max resolution is 4k 30p and bit rate is manageable.

[@TheDricaK_]

I think I may have bit off more than I can chew with this camera 🥲 I have no knowledge of it at all. So one of my questions would be “Does it use more than 1 Memory Card at once”? Or did you suggest those 3 types to choose from for better qualified? (Sorry if it’s a dumb question)

[@TheDricaK_]

[@DianaGladney]

Not a dumb question, it can be easy to confuse certain camera settings vs. features, etc. This particular camera only uses one memory card at a time. If you want one card to go with, the Sandisk Extreme card is great. What other things are confusing you about the camera?

Yep, all the specs I specified in the video are important. You need at least a v30, getting an Ultra Plus card will be a waste of money, honestly. Just get the right thing the first time, so it doesn't mess up any videos. If an SD card fits the specs I outlined in the video, you're good to go.

My zv e10 doesn't have 30p 100m or 30p 60m option in record setting .... Can u tell me why ??? I have 64 gb SD card

[@DianaGladney]

It may be if you’re in a PAL region versus NTSC that dictates what frame rates are set by default in your camera. Here in the U.S. were NTSC and we will see 24p, 30p, and 60p, etc. If you’re in a PAL region, you’ll see 25p, 50p, etc. Just Google if your country is NTSC or PAL and it’ll tell you. Based on what Google confirms will dictate what frame rates you see and how your camera is set up from factory settings. This is nothing you’d need to change unless you in a PAL region and bought a camera from here in the U.S. for example. That’s all it likely is, no biggie. As far as the SD card, that’s not going to dictate what you do or do not see in the ZV-E10.

[@DarkVanities]

do i need a v90 card for zv-e10? or is v60 acceptable for all the functions?

No, you don't need a V90 card or anything for the camera to work. It is a UHS-1 SD card slot on the camera. As long as you meet the requirements of at least the SD cards shown in the video, and it's a reliable brand you're buying, you're good.

For the 4K videos with the Sony ZV E10 you NEED a 128 GB or higher Sandisk Extreme card! 64 GB is NOT enogh!! Its NOT working correcly! With my new 256 GB Sandisk Extreme Card now everything is working smoothly!

[@SebaGraneros]

Did you use SDHC? Because the manual said that the SDHC broke the file when is in 4gb! I have a friend that he has the ZV-E10 and uses 64gb extreme... he told me that he didn't have problems.. it's strange

[@DianaGladney]

You may want to look into your card and ensure you have true Sandisk card if you ordered from someplace like Amazon. SDHC memory cards are 32GB and lower. 64GB and higher capacity are whats known as SDXC. If you record on a card marked SDHC for High Capacity on the ZV-E10 it will break your video files into 4GB. Sony also states this in the camera manual, so it's no real shocker here. You'll want to make sure your memory card is 64GB or higher. I stated all this in the video though if you're experiencing issues with your card, you'll want to ensure you don't have a defective card and format your card before each use in the camera to avoid any issues.

[@stevievlogs_]

[@DianaGladney]

@@andre785 The max capacity, you’d have to check the camera manual online. The recommended capacity, at least 64GB or larger as shared in the video so it doesn’t break up your files. Any file size beyond that is preference. However, more than 512GB isn’t really that logical on this camera because you can record a ton with 256GB cards. That’s a TON of footage, even in 4k, to have on just one card past 256GB. 256GB is around 5 hours of 4k which is a lot, even more in 1080p at the highest bitrates.

Hey! Just want ask about Sandisk SD cards.. I have a SanDisk Extreme Pro SD HC v30 U3 10 at 32GB..with this card, it does not allow me to record in 1080 120fps 100M and 4K 30fps/24fps 100m. Is that should be or is there something wrong withh my ZV E10?

[@DianaGladney]

Nope, nothing wrong with your camera but that card is too small. It’d have to meet all the parameters shared in the video to work in all recording modes. Which is why I suggest 128GB SD cards by Sandisk that are either these Extreme or Extreme Pro cards. Anything lower than 64GB isn’t going to help you. Cards also classified as SDHC for High Capacity aren’t ideal on the E10; that’s what you have. Those larger than 64GB are classified as SDXC for Extreme Capacity. It’s just better to get those that can work in any mode and won’t break the files up into 4GB files. That’s why I didn’t recommended any small capacity cards. Hope this helps clear things up for you.

You can, but I wouldn't recommend it. The 1TB SD card is ideal when you have a camera with really high resolution and bitrate specs, the ZV-E10 Mark 1 does not. It'd be EXTREME overkill and I personally would never recommend doing that combo. It's not as ideal as it'd sound. There's no amount of coverage for all day workshops, private mastermind trainings, podcasts, etc. where some 256GB and 512GB card more than fits the bill. I'm REALLY good taking care of my gear and it never fails every few months the Sandisk extreme and extreme pro sd cards eventually break, and always when the card is full lol. Having 1-3 videos or 1-2 podcasts on a card, maybe a few more is as much as you'd want on one card. You can pop in another one and start offloading footage while another is recording. Trusting a massive amount of ZV-E10 Mark 1 footage to one card is just a liability waiting to happen. So, of course, you can use whatever you want with the camera, but I'm putting it out there, don't.

What is needed when u buy this camera ? - memory card What else is needed to transfer the videos or pics to phone or pc ?

[@DianaGladney]

I teach buying cameras and getting into video in a very simple framework using an acronym called A.L.V.A.S. (Officially you may hear me call it the A.L.V.A.S. Hierarchy of Investments.) A - Audio | L - Lighting | V - Video | A - Accessories | S - Software Most important thing will be Audio, get a mic that will fit 90% of how you plan to create content. Whether a podcast style mic, wireless lapel mic, or shotgun mic for vlogging. Lighting is 2nd most important; I use these (Diana.Link/lights) and have been for years with some D-Fuse diffusion softboxes. Video, you already have your camera picked out it seems, which is fine. Something to think about in addition to the kit lens is a more ideal lens based on what you plan to do. Vlogging? Then the Sony 10-18mm f4 OSS lens would be my go-to. Plan on live streaming or recording in a home office, I'd go with something like the Sigma 16mm f1.4 lens, etc. Accessories: This is where you'll spend A LOT of time tweaking based on your needs and how you create. Ideally you want to get what you need for the camera, then anything you'd need for any other major areas of creating like your audio cable accessories, etc. Bare bones must haves? SD card, SD card reader, extra battery, USB battery charger, AC power adapter if you plan to live stream, Elgato Cam Link for pro 4k live stream setups, etc. This list of what to buy depends on what you plan to create, but that's usually the basics, which can be found here: Diana.Link/ZVE10Accessories Software is basically digital accessories but can either make your life easier as a creator or harder and more time-consuming. Granted, not a must-have when buying your first camera, but something to think about if you plan to stream, will be editing your content yourself for the first time, etc. Anything I use or would recommend for gear, you can find here: diana.link/ZVE10Gear What you ultimately buy is ALWAYS going to be based on your intended use case. If I'm traveling and vlogging, that's a lean and mean setup of one lens, 1-2 mic types, and a handful of accessories to make my life easier. If I'm creating in my home office, it's a much more complex setup because I want it to cover multiple functions in how I work, create content, take client calls, etc. Yes, when you get the camera, kit lens, and a memory card, you can start recording out the gate but when you start questioning and wondering why it looks a certain way, there's no blurry background, and how to fix the audio, etc. that's when the A.L.V.A.S. System becomes your new best friend. Hope this helps!
