Hi.. I have just bought this camera after watching your review on it. This Is my first camera.. But I have a doubt if u could help me. I don't see clear picture when I open the camera. It has the pixels like we used to have in old generation Televisions .. Like not the clean screen or the image. It seems as if I am watching an old generation black n white tv having torn pixels.. Please tell if this is normal or what should I do in this case?

[@done807]

Well, you guys are surely creating content 75% based on other people's content. But I might be vong. No offence.

[@HiMyNameIsZachRomero]

Got the Sony ZV-1 to start my KZbin journey. Focusing on vlog style/challenge videos right now. Still trying to figure out my niche. Thank you so much for the content! Extra batteries are a MUST with this camera.

[@iQueeneth]

Who else loves his videos??

[@Dodgster]

I love seeing omar so much on the channel, he's my favourite presenter

[@PureFunction]

My ZV-1 shows up today! It’s out for delivery now. So decided to look up some good videos on accessories and BOOM you just posted. Perfect timing!

[@ScottGerke]

Great time to start vlogging as most of us have lost our jobs and starting a new life. Helps that KZbin has gained some serious watch hours over the past couple of months. Time to make some lemonade!

[@howtokdj]

I've always believed I can make the best content I can without the 'best' gear. And, I've been doing that. Thanks for ALL the tips guys! You really helped me start up my channel.

It always seems youtubers are telling what camera is great while they are using a totally different camera that they obviously feel is better.

I CANT WAIT I JUST ORDERED MY SONY ZV1

[@sachinshajan8066]

How is it ? Just thinking of getting one

[@motothunderboy3167]

Order for me too

[@MNKOGaming]

Got one too! What u think?!

[@nicoletiana]

I had this camera a year ago and i loved it. I ended up returning it bc at that time i got too caught up with my day job that i didn't have time to film. I repurchased this camera along with the Joby tripod and i can't wait to film content using it again!!!

[@Rizzstech]

11:45 in case anyone wants to livestream with a empty wallet the Sony zv1 can be used as a webcam through just the usb cable although it limits at 720p. You should still remembered however that 720p with that good of a camera will look AMAZING

[@HowToCuisine]

This is perfect, I was looking for what is the best camera to vlog with. Thank you for sharing!

[@marshayermilov]

I feel so calm, I am a beginner youtuber and it makes sense that your channel has been my go too! THANK YOU!!!! just purchased this camera and I am beyond excited to see what I create

Who else watches all of Think Media's videos?! They are so helpful!!! I want to start a separate channel for vlogging/lifestyle outside of my educational channel but I am still debating. When I do I def will get the SONY Zv-1 and I would look at getting a non-looking camera satchel or bad. Could you also have Heather suggest some camera bags that are more girly? I feel all the camera bags I see online are very masculine.

[@charlessanson2835]

I have watched a lot of videos about the ZV-1, this is the best one so far about Accessories.

[@midlifecrisisgamingtech5462]

can i just say your kid is so adorable ?

[@AJ_Stone]

Good video! ZV-1 is awesome! I just ordered it after trying to figure out what I wanted to get. The only down side it has (against the M50, 90D, Sl3) starter cameras is they have lens options for macro, and the touch screen menu for on the fly changes. And that one really weird issue where the screen (seems) to go black when you wear polarized sunglasses (saw that on FroKnows) so Im aware of that caveat. For good photo, video, audio (which the rode wireless go would couple well with the ZV-1) but I dont see the need unless your in a really noisy environment, stabilization, focus, clean hdmi out, no record limit, no 4k crop, decent in low light, internal USB charging and you can use a power bank, charge while using, you can see the audio bars on the screen so you know you have audio (or if you dont, you'll know right away) product showcase mode, de-focus for blurry background, record light so you know your actually recording, and no need for adapters, lenses, microphone, carry bag, and far less editing time, its clearly a winner. Straight up $1000 and nothing (or not much else needed) cant beat that really. Im a Canon user (and have been looking at the above cameras) and I just recently ordered this little guy to take on spur of the moment trips and outdoor ventures (put it in the pocket and go basically) Im anxious to get it and see how it does. Now, I will be getting a much better photography camera later, but this for sure will be my A cam for my channel Im getting ready to start until I get to that point just for the video. I bought these though to save over $100 (my friend has this camera and this tripod) and its great, it telescopes out much further (like to use if you vlog) and it has a quick release phone mount too which is handy in a pinch (like the battery dies and you didn't take one with you) then you can use your phone until you get home. The remote works great as well and is half the cost of Sonys And the Micro USB to Type C cable so I can keep it rapid charging if and when Im low on battery at home live streaming. I prefer type C and wish these companies would just add it in. All found on Amazon 1. USB Type C to Micro USB Cable, JSAUX 6.6FT Type C to Micro USB Charger Braided Cord Support Charge & Sync Compatible with MacBook (Pro),Galaxy S8, S9, S10, Pixel 3 XL, 2 XL and Micro USB Devices- Red/2M 2.

[@joshualeong6991]

Been deciding between the A6400 and ZV-1 as a beginner. Been watching videos from Think Media about these 2 cameras. Thank you Think Media for the information.

[@earthangel2522]

Thank you for the time and energy you and the Think Media gang put into producing these helpful videos for us newbies. Since I am saving up to get beyond using my iPhone with a good blogging camera, purchase ( I go back and forth between the ZV-1 and the M50.) Having to save up, I have time to pro/con, pro/con -- ad nauseam before making up my mind. I have some time to learn as much as I can from your videos. It's like going to film school. And it's FREE. Whee! We often don't even know what we don't know about cameras and equipment before making our purchase. It is great to see so many content creators giving from their hearts as well as their heads. You serve humanity well. Blessings on you all.

[@antcap66]

And whoever is about to start their channel but he’s afraid you should do so don’t pay attention about other people and I hope you grow into a bigger channel ❤️💋

[@Bachconcertos]

Thanks for such an indept tutorial on the Sony ZV-1 and the accessorieis I will need - it helped me purchase the camera and what I will need to purchase in accessories just to start out as a youtuber.. Without detailed information like this I would never have started - which why I have been sitting on the idea for five years because people have been so secretive and confusing about what one really needs to get going without busting the bank.

[@ClarkWells7]

Great stuff. Super helpful links. Starting a channel here soon, so have been digesting all the info you have been putting out! Thanks - Clark

[@CamillaI]

Certainly another battery, fully charged two to find first flat in ZV1 camera! Don't know what I left on! but thank goodness for the second battery bought spare just in time! Also find the Sirui T35 table top tripod and Sony RMT-P1BT remote comander comb, better than the purpose made Sony hand grip !

I heard that the Sony ZV-1 has some overheating issues. Have you encountered that? I’m also debating between the Sony ZV-1 , Sony a5100, Canon50m. Those all seem to be recommended. I do educational videos, so the camera is always static but I need to pair it with OBS.

Does anyone else do vlogs? I would, but I just feel so much more comfortable with normal videos 🤔

Hola Omar, I´m a toys collector, so i have a KZbin channel, i´m from Campeche, México and i bought the ZV1 with the vlogger kit because of your review, now, with this video i´m going to buy some accesories, for me in this channel, you are the best, you are very imparcial, good for you, also i only watch the videos that you review, i just follow you on Instagram, have a good week.

I have several Ulanzi ball heads and mini tripods and they are the best I googled other companies and compared them with Ulanzi. Ulanzi MT-34 is better quality, but Ulanzi with quick-release system Ulanzi FALCAM F22 or F38Quick Release System with Ulanzi MT-28 Extendable Carbon Fiber Tripod

[@thatsoely]

After hearing about this Sony camera I really think it would be a good camera cuz I just started vlogging as currently just use my iPhone 7

[@JessicaHeartsMakeup]

Do you need to keep the fuzzy thing on top of the camera?

[@truthseeker6804]

no you dont. the fuzzy thing helps when youre outdoor and theres wind and youre not using an external mic, but the internal mic.

[@ParkSpill]

Great video! Really impressed with the ZV-1, picked mine up recently and it worked so well for my VLOGS. My shot my last VLOG on it and was so impressed with the image and quality. It matches my A cam (GH5) perfectly. The only thing I wished I'd done was used Shutter priority, I'm so used to filming manual that I couldn't put my trust in it. Now I've messed around with it I have full faith in the auto on this little beast!

[@StickyRiceThaiKitchen]

Which tethering cable do I need for this camera? Also I am guessing that if I use the tethering cable , the camera will be automatically charged at the same time it transfer the pictures to my MacBook? I am using it for my cooking videos and food photography. Thanks so much. Love Think Media:).

[@yanaarahmanful]

thanks for your tips.. 💪

[@OfficialMarkAnthonyRomano]

Think Media thank u so much sir

[@LionheartSJZ]

Would you recommend the ZV-1 for a KZbin channel that does a combination of camera talks as well as nature videography (hiking trips, etc.)? Obviously this camera is not perfect for videography but two separate cameras are not within my budget :)

[@OmarEltakrori]

I think it’s a great camera for talking head/broll videos (like this video) and as a vlog camera is pretty good - it’s easy to use but can you can get pretty pro level stuff as you learn how to use it

[@Astro_Shed]

Am looking at this camera for my KZbin videos, as I am an Astrophotographer, i have a few very expensive cameras for taking pictures of the deep night sky, but ATM just use a GoPro for my Chanel videos….

[@4WheelsOnTheRoad]

I create videos in the outdoors in beautiful sunny Queensland down here in Australia! I have been thinking of getting a camera like this to go with my Mavic Pro 2 drone footage and GoPro shots, thanks for the information Omar

[@Nzaonline]

What camera was used to record this entire video?

[@velanche]

Thanks for the video! What boom mic would you recommend, in terms of leveling up, that attaches to the mic boom and stand you were showing? I ordered a Rode NTG-1 at first, but then realized that you can't attach it to the external port on the ZV-1. I wanna get good audio, but I don't wanna have to fuss with having to use an external audio recorder and doing the "clap" thing to line up the audio if I can help it. What say you?

[@4WheelingSA]

Cool video and tips - I create 4x4 videos. Think of getting this as the cost is lower and also maybe a bit more moveable vs a camera with lenses. Might just add the wide lens thing.

[@Bachconcertos]

What about using microphones that you clip onto your shirt or jacket collar? Can I use that rather than a boom.

[@FreakyTallReviews]

Thanks for the reviews Think Media! Would you ever do one for cameras that is focused around stepping in to the world of fullframe sensors? Looking to utilize my nifty fifty to its fullest extent, but the SL3 just won't provide that for me!

[@OmarEltakrori]

M50 with the viltrox adapter

[@FreakyTallReviews]

@@OmarEltakrori Could my SL3 utilize the same adapter?

[@dangelomartinez]

Out of everything out now,from a budget of 1000 and below what do u think is the best camera for this year for KZbin overall and continuing on to the future

[@ScottGerke]

Go for this. I’m getting one this week. I have a GH5s, which is incredible, but you loose a lot of changes with cool shots cause of its size. This one packs a punch for its size and you can get super creative.

[@CeciBoo]

I want to start creating a home redecorating/diy videos ... trying to do my homework on these cameras to see which would be best for me

[@rusticwaters]

Thank you for producing this video! I'm still confused on how the camera and mic are connected when you create your vlog A-roll. I'm guessing you boom your Rode mic but do you connect the mic to the camera or to your computer? Related to that is where are the video and audio being recorded to for A-roll? If it's all to the camera SD card, then how do you review each of your shots to see if you nailed them or need to reshoot? If it's all done using the camera, do you have to physically get out of your chair and walk around to the back of the camera to press play and rotate the screen back (if you turned it to face you while recording)? Otherwise, it would seem like a pain to rotate the camera after you got it all positioned for the shot only to have to reset it if the shot needed a retake. If you found a way to record direct to your computer, that would seem a nicer way to check each shot without disturbing the camera. If that's the case, what software are using for that? Lastly, how do you start and stop recording for each shot? Pressing the record button on the camera each time could be a pain if the camera was positioned out of reach. Do you use some type of remote and, if so, what make and model do you recommend?

[@mercedesescobarmusic]

What kind of capture card do you recommend for people with only Thunderbolt 3 ports on their laptop?

[@CBVideofy]

Hey, how's it going? Question: are you sure the power adapter is compatible with the zv-1? The link doesn't say it is, the connector does not look the one the camera and someone on Amazon commented that it not compatible. Are you using this adapter?

[@jragadio]

Omar, how does that continuous power adapter work you talk about in 8:40? How would the cable run through the battery door? Do you need to remove the door? Would the battery stay in? I'm not sure how to use this camera on a continuous live stream!

[@edoneal9405]

I have the same question. I bought the power adapter and there's no way to close the battery door. If the door can't be closed it's impossible to mount it on a tripod, selfie stick, or the Sony vlogger grip. This SEEMS to be a useless accessory since it doesn't allow the door to be closed.

[@jragadio]

Ed O'Neal I wonder if using something like a cage would work to allow the door to stay open

[@TyFromTennessee]

This camera will be mine. Oh yes, it will be mine.
