[@mattih]

Soooooooo what do you think? Its not for me but I could see it being decent for some people for sure. Either way I think camera companies should be listening to people more on what to implement in their cameras so this was a great step forwards.

[@tigocostavisser9768]

The colours feel a bit like they're from an iPhone but the rest looks really great!

[@ClaudioDesideriFilms]

Gonna watch it now and tell you my opinion 😉

[@mcdtv2]

Ditto, not really for me, I’d love to be able to use a smaller camera but just can’t. Field of view my biggest gripe !! But good steps forwards

[@ThePlotHole]

If it's not for you, send it on over...haha. Looks alright for the average vlogger/KZbinr. Depending on price...

[@AdventurousSoulVlog]

Mmmmm not for me. Field of view is a deal breaker !! I have a big bald head under normal circumstances 🤪

[@scottmckenna]

6:46 I'm actually impressed with the wind reduction.

[@JanMunoz]

Thank you for the honest review! I love the stabilisation and autofocus + defocus that you demonstrated. I've seen a video of this Sony ZV-1 in night/low light footage with a gimbal and it's pretty impressive for its size.

[@BeyondYourDoorstep]

Ohhh exciting! We use a basic entry level DSLR and really like the image quality as relative beginners but for travel days this would be nice and convenient!

[@gilvrgs]

That checklist part though!! I love it! The microphone does a great work, and I love the VHS vibe that the zoom gave. 😅😂 As usual, a lovely review and outro with Kai.

[@GoodLuggageAutomotiveDetailing]

Needed to have the product showcase spoke about in this, its awwwwesome!

[@jaxx-inspiregrowcreate2862]

The audio is pretty decent actually

[@ohmyitsjosh4264]

Just watched this after purchasing the camera and wow, I’m glad I did! This video was awesome. Never seen your videos before but you earned a subscriber 👍

[@danieldougan269]

The built-in audio is surprisingly good. I am impressed! A 1" sensor makes a ton of sense for video because you can still blur out the background while having some flexibility to move back and forth in the frame without losing focus. Micro Four Thirds is pretty good for that as well. With current firmware, my Olympus OM-D E-M1 Mark II is actually a killer vlogging camera. I think full-frame vlogging is kind of silly.

[@janhi6038]

Canon started „EOS Webcam Utility Beta“ for using some cameras as webcam too 😉 I‘ve tried it with my 6D MK II and it‘s really good if you are in your home-office, especially right now I use it a lot for meetings and calls.

[@deepak.sehgal001kumar5]

is this function work in canon eos 700d ? bcoz i have it

[@janhi6038]

deepak.sehgal001 kumar here is the link to the utility, there are all supported cameras listed at the end of the page www.usa.canon.com/internet/portal/us/home/support/self-help-center/eos-webcam-utility/

[@DanUnplanned]

Looks interesting man, gonna enjoy watching this I can’t wait to travel and make a video again

[@JF..]

Always happy to see the little guy ❤️ Great review btw

[@WannabeAlpinist]

Matti, you have done so much for us small KZbin creators. I use many of your concepts for my mountaineering videos I create. Thank you for everything!

[@famvoyage]

Thanks Matti, great review as always !!

[@AverageDadOfficial]

Great video, I love the product showcase mode 👍

[@roo5110]

KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK MAN ! AND THANK YOU FOR INSPIRING US 🔥

[@augustuscaesarorquita8612]

Subs is rapidly increasing! Congrats!

[@nuiyoubysusanametzger3759]

Best review on youtube so far of this camera 👏🏼

[@fahhadm_alq]

Finally, there is someone who gives disadvantages and advantages of using it. Thank you so much

[@thewriter2549]

What about the stabilization for shooting regular video? No vlogging.

[@arnaud78]

Love how you went straight to the point 🙌🏻

[@PaulaHeartland]

Great review. The good thing is the auto depth of field. But I love my Lumix G7. Even tho it's a smaller sensor the sound, image with added lens, flip screen, all is great. And discreet.

[@-homecook6861]

Great video bro, very good review, thanks.

[@MegaUrzo]

I have watched so many videos on this camera. This is by far the best.

[@kathyt221]

The end was my favourite part. Your son is the cutest! 🤩

[@jonathan112]

suddenly I see 10 videos in my subscription box about the new Sony

[@NiklasJuritsch]

Jonathan Stütz haha same😂

[@RoxyReel]

@@NiklasJuritsch Sames. Seems everyone did it!

[@Damiesdiary.]

Me too🤣🤣

[@YannickKhong]

shills, shills everywhere.

[@hamlysantosdl]

You are amazing man I have taken great advices from you, may God bless your family for the eternity.

[@PeterKae]

so many informative reviews about this great camera coming out at the same time! Must be a huge one ! I think I gonna buy a nikon now...

[@thefauxjackie]

thanks for an awesome and honest review!

[@canadiandronepilot7535]

This would be the great fit for what I do ! Awesome review , this has many great features that make it easier to use for a content creator like me. Takes a lot of the prep time out of the equation.. get out , shoot video , edit = done ! Hmm going to have to take a serious look at this .. Thanks Matti !! 👍🇨🇦🙏

[@groovexmedia]

To see it positively: like you said, it might work for some people. From what I’ve seen so far the video quality is just not what I’m used to. There’s better options out there I think. Thank you for your honest review!

[@marialemnaru1592]

Thanks so much for the honest review. Most KZbinrs who reviewed this camera only had praises and as a noobie I want to know everything since it is pretty expensive for a starter camera. But as you said, if you don't know much about filming and you are starting out its a great choice.

[@TheMediocreMountainBiker]

This fits very well with what I am looking for. Fast lens, compact size - I was considering the RX100vii or RX100va, but this thing looks just right! Also, super interesting that your thermostat is in Fahrenheit instead of Celsius.

[@NitronNinja]

Surprisingly, I actually really liked the quality! I’m a full on film maker and for some reason I don’t think I would completely hate using that camera (for vlog purposes of course)

[@samheedy]

I love it! New content creator here - ABSOLUTELY LOVED THE REVIEW!!!

[@covidvines2518]

Another nice review ❤

[@RomanWasntBuiltInADay]

Very cool camera. Looks great for beginners 👍🏼

[@RangerRickTV]

How do you hook this up to your computer for gaming and streaming? USB to a USB port on your computer or does it connect through a video card?

[@thoughtprocessxyz]

@matti when you say to "us" at the beginning of the video, it really felt that I am also a vlogger even though not yet started vlogging.

[@MarlonKingShow]

Been keen to see this camera. Thanks Matti. I currently have a G7X mk2, I reviewed the mk3, I'm not sure I would buy it though... This looks like I could switch on my upgrade. I hope the user interface is good. Otherwise, I think they have ticket 90% of the boxes (excluding wider lens and usbc)

[@rsm307studios]

Talk about KZbinrs not having anything else to do...Matti, Sara, and Sean all have reviews on Sony ZV-1! For a starting KZbinr it seems just a tad bit expensive for the newbies. I'm really excited that all of the KZbin world is going crazy for the ZV-1!!! Great video!!! 😀

[@franklinpark4475]

I would definitely buy this camera. Definitely is a nice little package. Only if it didn't have that overheating issue.

[@CreepyDan]

Really like the idea of a decent built in mic, I really don’t like external nice for some reason... probably because I always forget to turn it on before recording haha. Nice little camera, cheers Matti!

[@fatheringautism]

It’s a shame that it crops to roughly 30mm just to achieve stabilization that the G7X II already has. I don’t like the muddy image either. It could have been near perfect. You were supposed to be the chosen one!

[@ChiaTalks]

Can't wait to see what I can do with this new Sony Camera

[@MARZILLI]

Check out how potato jet used the defocus feature for product showcasing... works pretty amazing.

[@ShivabhodayyaGanachari]

Amazing ur videos...i like ur analysation

[@Jerenluis1]

When it comes to quality, I honestly prefer the a6100. There are new autofocus and depth of field features in this one though.

[@Sblackphoto]

As a Sony a7iii user for photography and thinking about getting an additional body for vloging I was interested. Great video and appreciate your review. Think its perhaps sounds like a mk1. While I may wait for the mk2. If Sony's history is going to repeat then the next edition will be out with improvements sooner than any other camera company operates. I recon I'll keep going with phone and osmo gymbal for now.

[@andymiraka9238]

You made my day when you zoomed into your face... it looked like a meme i saw a while ago... When your friend says wait a second hahahhahahah

[@katiekrackers4210]

Thank you for this review. I am about to start vlogging for the first time, so I bought it as a beginner camera to get rolling. I appreciated your honesty. I do wish the lens was wider, I guess I'll get on the torture racks to start stretching my arms. Noone needs my face in their grill that hard. Many thanks.

[@BrandonSoum]

Definitely a tight focal length; It's probably better for most to use an extendable tripod for this camera, that's what I would do if I had the ZV1

[@JoeShowCheek]

I would love a review and comparison from you on this and Sony Xperia 1 mark II.

[@BoomTharis]

Kai was so cute holding that camera. Can’t wait to see his vlogs 👍🏼

[@facesoflydia1387]

Would you recommend the ZV-E10 over this Sony ZV-1? Love your videos!

[@TalAgam]

Thank you for the review. How are the stills on this camera?

[@septemberlotus]

Hello Sir, great review. Could you tell us if the visuals were straight off the camera or were they color graded/treated? Thanks!

[@elliotnemeth]

The ending though 😂😂😂 You should let Kai record a vlog with it!!

[@nigelivy]

Looks like a good camera for certain uses. 👌🏼

[@Wearldsproake]

Audio is actually pretty good (listened with headphones on). No wind rumble whatsoever. It's a little tinny (cutting out the lower frequencies) but 100x better than other on-board mics I've dealt with.

[@waelalkanzi1770]

I love it♥♥♥♥🌼 thank you Matti

[@REVIEWSONTHERUN]

Cool! Nice video. ✌️

[@emauf]

You can actually turn down the softness in the settings.

[@jjcofficial5559]

hey matti. do you think we need different cameras depends on what we are going to shoot?

[@thomastevis8655]

Love your videos

[@SrinidhiAithal]

That outro ❤️

[@_parkphoto]

it's v impressive how well they targeted this camera to a vlogger/youtuber market. pretty dope

[@PetesJeepAdventures]

Most negatives can be fixed in the settings, such as focus speed, etc

[@jch010]

Audio is really good! Definetly a better option than a Rebel!

[@ADHTube]

You and the geese! 😆 Too funny. Good review too.👍🏾

[@spxrgie5522]

This camera is so exciting!

[@DETTMARMagnus]

Matti how can we get hold of that camera?! Love your channel, best on youtube!

[@st.michaelthearchangel7774]

Audio sounds great.

[@tigocostavisser9768]

Hey Matti, could you do a video in which you show us how you edit and shoot your videos? I would be very interested!

[@Bierbrot]

having such a camera for little trips to put in the pocket AND use it for Twitch or sth else as a webcam would be awesome!

[@ghallyleobaniago699]

Hey matti.. im waiting for your review on the new sony zv-e1 😊

[@arhauz9719]

nice video sir! how long the fully charged battery last? can i connect external power supply and continue recording? is there limitation in continious recording?

[@malicusama]

I love this 😍😍😍❤️

Matti - love this review! This Sony cam seems great for travel vlogers! Switch your soda to water ;) lol

[@LinChearReal]

The sound is almost perfect out of the box. The S' are a bit hard though.

[@moneyisfreedom4635]

“I would love a camera like that” i thought to myself before hearing the price and deciding i really dont need it xp

[@TuckerPearce]

Great vid, thought I'd be more impressed with the camera. Some cool features but the overheating concerns me.

[@BeckyBaldwinBass]

How do you think it would be full loud situations? Do you think it would distort badly during loud live music for example?

[@WhiskeyQuests]

Great review. It’s funny how is cold climate people can’t wait for the warm weather just so we can blast the AC 😆 cheers 🥃

[@thatswhatisaidCA]

This was great, thank you! Can you expound on 8:05, re they plan on making this for use as a webcam... do you mean that's something they'll do on their side and when they do we can use this one, or do we wait for the next model? Thanks! Have a great day! Hi from Canada.

[@KamilROfficial]

Dude! Cant wait to get that camera for my youtube videos!! 🤯😁

[@john_free_thinker]

Hi, what do you think is the best setting for someone that makes build and how to videos on KZbin are? I record with a lot of hand and body movement and I want the shots to look clear without the camera going crazing on trying to focus in and out on my movements. When the camera does stuff like that, I get a some recordings of focus in and out blurs. What is your suggestion for a more clear shot with body and hand movement? Thank you.

[@konzeptvideodesign6982]

Sounds like it has a ton of handy features for the lower end shooter.

[@saiyan_princestudios9790]

i think fuji listened too, adding ibis to their smaller XT line and adding a flip screen :)

[@ClaudioDesideriFilms]

Interesting one, gonna watch it and tell you my opinion

[@sonipitts]

OMG Kai! "Baby's First Vlogging Camera" ftw!

[@TheJugginsFamily]

Would love to be sent products to try out. One day i'll get there !

[@GermanViking]

I was just about to say that I was missing Kai on the video but you included him at the end 🙌🏼

[@SylvesterValderrama]

When Matti found all the geese I was like oh snap geese watch KZbin and Matti’s channel and they were tired of Gary and his family getting all the screen time 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@jamiee8746]

What about a review of the Sony RX100 VII marketed as a 'pro' camera alternative?

[@ItzSi]

Looks like a pretty solid B cam .....best thing is the floppy screen.

[@tylorkenniston1192]

I wish it had a bit wider frame, it feels weird being so close to Matti and not seeing the environment as much

[@stephenbrouillette4541]

Looks and sounds great on my phone!

[@KRTLyfe]

Definitely needs a wider lens for sure! If your Vlog has two people or you travel Vlog, I don’t think that this camera is the ticket. Image stabilization was eh but that crop kills it for me. The Audio was decent the auto focus seemed good as well the Bokeh trick is eh. I think this camera is a good try for Vlogger specific cameras but there is still vast room for improvement. As of now you are still better off using the latest and greatest smartphone of your choice until you decide if a “real” camera is what you want. Great review!

[@Derek86ixt]

I picked to watch yours out of the other 5 notifications I got 😉

[@danielhorvathofficial]

You forgot to mention it has a microphone input. So you can plug your microphone for better quality. I think it is important because my last camera don't have and because I wanted to start vlogging I searched camera what it has. But the built in mic is decent. Good job!
