my wife saved enough to buy me a zv e10 that came with the kit lens for a very affordable set price, and the reason why i so much appreciate this video is because i (we) cannot afford to buy a separate more professional lens especially since i do youtube videos and personal photography only as a hobby. thank you for making me appreciate my current setup and envy less others who could buy lenses.

Even though I've gone full frame with Sony with my A7C, I still have the 16-50mm from when I had the ZV-E10. There are many situations where having a blurry background isn't the intention. And given how small and light the 16-50mm is, it's really a no brainer for vlogging or even narrative filmmaking. When I shot a feature with the GH5, I used the 12-60mm f/2.8 for the entire shoot. It didn't have a lot of fancy bokeh, but that didn't bother the audiences who watched it. We got the Audience Favorite award at a film festival in Palm Desert, California. And it was well received at two other festivals we screened it at. So, don't sell yourself short if you use the 16-50mm lens. It's more capable than you may think.

The kit lens isn't bad at all, I've been using it since the release. It's decent and light. Compared to the 16-50mm kit lens I got with my Nikon Z Fc it's really not that good, but that kit lens is a lot more expensive and it shows. But, for what I paid for the Sony ZV-E10 with kit lens, it gets the job done. For product photgraphy (my artworks), I prefer the Sony, it makes more appealing shots. For filming I prefer the Nikon with kit lens, it just does a better job. If you're on a budget and want a decent camera with lens, the Sony ZV-E10 with 16mm-50mm kit lens gets the job done.

Hi Mark, really great video as usual ! Actually, I was very sad when I bought my ZV-E10 as I couldn't find it in the camera + kit lens bundle, and the kit lens is crazy expensive outside of the bundle. Anyway, following your review of the Sigma 18-50 F2.8 and some real life experience, I decided to return the Sony 18-105 F4 I had initially bought to replace it with the Tamron 17-70 F2.8 (great lens by the way, I hope you'll review it someday :) ) that I chose over the Sigma because it has optical stabilization, even though it's a bit less sharp and quick to focus. I ordered it using your amazon affiliate link, so I hope it worked :) PS : no more drinking ? ;)

Looking for on the studio side, a good desk top light, (I'm in a temp place right now sitting at a desk, so something that can fill up the frame with good lightint but not a big floor light just yet), tripod for the desktop camera when doing lives and sitting vlogs. I know I need the 4K HDMI thing, I have the Shure SM7B for mic right now which should be cool. Anything else not sure? Then for Vlogs and shooting around, a tripod/handle thingy (yeah I'm high tech), I have the Go wireless, and then thought I'd get a lav to plug into those or shotgun mic for closer to camera? Don't need to list all these, but would love to see you add a gear I use section to your description like all the big dogs. :-) And for starting up with the ZV E-10 etc. Having said all that, you rock my brother, keep up the epic content and humor, good stuff!

Thanks for a great channel, just managed to get my hands on the ZV-E10 but body only cause the kit was sold out. My intention is to use it for travel/daily/run and gun/b-roll/snapshot camera that I'm not too afraid to carry around. I was thinking of a pancake but the 20mm f2.8 doesn't seem to perform much better than the kit? I'm intending to get the 18-105 for more specific shots and filming but when it comes to a smaller lens I want to have something that I can bring the camera with me daily. What would you guys suggest? Size matters a lot for me and the smaller the better, but still give some quality shots. I know I'm asking for a lot but hoping to get some ideas ofthe closest option..

The asthma 18-50 f2.8 is calling your name. It’s super small, sharp as a tack, and can do macro (closeup) shots. geni.us/yNHvj I actually did a video on it kzbin.info/www/bejne/a52ThmuwbNF9lck

@@MarkBennettCameraCrisis thanks for fast reply and tip! Man, that looks like a great lens but it's about 5 times longer than my Canon 40mm 2.8 pancake I've been running for years. Just turned to Sony and was hoping to find something similar for a pocket sized camera. Bokeh is not soo much of importance with my daily pocket camera, mostly stills of landscapes and buildings during daylight, and then I'll bring the 18-105 (or this Sigma!) with me when I need a zoom and fixed aperture for more specific shots. Maybe I'll survive with the Sony 20mm 2.8 if I stay around f8 all day and the corners will be somewhat sharp? Have you done a test on the 20mm Zv-E10 kombo? Thanks again!

The zv-e10 and the kit lens will be ok in lowlight, but you really want to try and avoid a very lowlight situation with that setup. That’s why I mentioned in the video to sit in front of a window of you don’t have a light. Decent lighting is the key to good footage - no matter the lens.

In a pinch it’s ok, as long as your lighting is good it will work well. I opted for the 16mm 2.8 prime and the 50mm 1.4 too. They are my to lenses for the zv-e10. I have a 24-120mm 4.5 that came as a kit lens with a nikon dslr i have and had it on shelf for a couple years didn’t even think about it until another friend mentioned they’d been using it at events we were working. Was surprised how great that kit lens has been. Still using it today.

The kits lens is great to have. But you can achieve the same result to get all things in focus. Just raise your aperture to f5.6 or f8 and everything will be in focus on the sigma.

Hi Mark. Thanks for sharing your points on the Sony ZV E10 Kit Lens. I've recently bought the ZV E10, but I'm quite overwhelmed with all its features, and parameters to set up... I've done some test footage, and I'm struggling with having the full background in focus.. For instructional videos I sometimes need to have the full frame clear, without the blurry background. How can I solve this? Thank you.
@MarkBennettCameraCrisis2 жыл бұрын
When your fstop is low, the background will be blurry. So put your camera in aperture priority “A” and set the fstop to f8. everything will be sharp

@MarkBennettCameraCrisis2 жыл бұрын
@@GuitarNTabs It’s not really middle of the road - the F8 will be the lens pretty much at it’s sharpest. Lenses usually look really sharp around F8. But for you specifically in your case, it will increase the depth of field so the whole scene will be in focus. Landscape photographers shoot usually between f8-f11 on aps-c cameras to keep everything sharp and in focus. But for portraits or model shots, people usually want a blurry background and set their cameras to f1.8 or similar

Good evening Mark. I have a video request or maybe you can point in to someone who has done this video. I'd like to learn how to better understand all the autofocus settings on my zve10. How do it get those cool up close shots that shift focus to objects of different depth? How do I keep the camera from constantly searching for something to focus on when I'm just getting a wide angle shot of me working in the garage? Any tips?

I'll try to do some stuff on the focus modes - but look into enabling tracking. You hold you r finger on the object you want tracked on the screen and it will stay with that object

Have you reviewed the sony 18-105 F4...OSS? I bought this over the sigma 18 - 50 because of the powered zoom and OSS. Do you have any opinions either way on this Sony lens? I also have the sigma 16mm 1.4 which is just killer. I'm still learning how to do this and you are my go-to guy for Sony cameras. I really appreciate how good of a teacher you are for the nerdy stuff. Must be all that apple juice. Natural sugars are good for the brain. I'm a ZV E10 owner and still learning.
