The recording limit in 4k on the z30 could possibly be changed later in a firmware update. Nikon has done a great job with their updates with the z system. Another thing you didn't mention is that all of the z lenses were designed for video in mind. There's little to no focus breathing or chromatic aberration with their lenses and they're silent or close to it. That's not true with all of the Sony lenses. I've seen other videos where some of the KZbinrs complained about the Sony lenses for video use. That in itself can make a difference in video quality. No one wants to see pulsing in their video from focus breathing issues.

I love the Z30. I bought it less than a week ago, and its video is incredible for my interview filming with Røde Wireless Go II. But I must shout out loud: FORGET ABOUT BATTERIES! The only thing working is a battery Volt pack plugged directly into the camera while filming. For me, it worked like a dream. I took the third video this Monday, and I forgot charging, and in less than 10 minutes, the battery went from full, to red alert (only 1920 x 1080, 24 Fps). I have a lot of sunglasses, and most come with a cloth bag with a string. Perfect for attaching to the tripod with charging.

As a filmmaker, I naturally prefer shooting in 24fps as opposed to 30fps. Not just because 24fps is closer to what the human eye sees, but, motion blur is more accurate in 24fps. Not only that, but, I find that 30fps has a more "soap opera" digital look to the footage. It just doesn't look that natural. Footage shot at 30fps will never look cinematic because of that artificial digital look. It's a mistake to think that just because you're watching a video online that 30fps is better. It's not. Shooting in 24fps makes a huge difference in the quality and natural look of the footage.

I agree that Sony got the audio aspects down pat and it shows their progession into video/content creation. I've been a Nikon DSLR user for a while and I still love Nikon colors and ergonomics. Was going to shift to Sony because of their third-party support especially for the Tamron 17-70/2.8 but now that Nikon has opened up their Z-mount like Fuji did with theirs, I'm inclined to get the Z30. Will most likely wait for a Z50ii though. Thanks for the comparison vid.

Anyone who is recording themselves or other on this type of camera should use a lav mic. Onboard mic, even if it’s a shotgun is only really good for environmental sound. So you need something like the Rode Go, which has a headphone output on the receiver (that sits in the hot shoe on the camera). So the headphone output isn’t really that much of a problem if you’re using this a vlogging camera. A lav mic is essential, more important than any spec on the camera. You can shoot on a potato if you have great sound.

yes the Z30 is the first Z camera besides the Z9 to allow over 30 minutes. the 125 and 35 minutes are Nikon’s published limits at 25°C / 77°F ambient temperature. I would not call those unlimited, but rather good case limits and the actual may vary on your situation. if you need to record an hour continuous 4K video, the Z30 won’t do that. the A74 video has no video length limit in the software, but you can see on other KZbin videos at 4K60 can overheat and shut down in certain scenarios. if you have to reliably record long 4K videos, the Panasonic GH5 works well, never had any problems. will continue experimenting with the Z30 to see how it stacks up. so no Nikon Z camera has an unlimited internal recording time limit unless you record to an external HDMI recorder like Atomos.

Same with EVF, for photography it's important, for video nobody looks through the view finder. This camera is focused on video, not photography. I think they did a great job with it, anyone that is looking at this camera specifically as a step up from phone/gopro/etc. is going to love it, so don't let the pro reviewers complaining about missing features let you down.

So I found your roundup very strange. You only pointed out things about the camera itself, like the missing headphone jack etc. But you didn't mention one of the much more important things: both are not standalone devices but systems. And the lens is a very VERY important factor here. And here Nikon just doesn't bring you any choices except the kit lens that is wide enough plus also small enough. Sony has all those APS-C ultra wide angles which are super handy, plus Sigma and Tamron and even Zeiss (Touit) add their lenses as well with great options. As many always say: lenses are much more important than the camera, and this seems to be quite ignored here (or just put into some sentences here). It should be in the final conclusion because right now the Nikon really does not bring you any option and is quite limited due to it. Of couse in some years this might be different, but this is a far road right now with Nikon also having to concentrate on full frame lens developments.

U are right on the EVF part, I'd also miss it too, but the tilting screen on the Z50 is a joke after even the D3xxx series low-end entry cameras have fully articulated screens. This was a dealbreaker for me as a product photographer as I need to adjust composition IN FRONT of the camera, so I need to be able to see what's going on. Otherwise I'd have also picked the Z50 because of the viewfinder. The inbuilt flash should also always be lacking in this cameras IMO.

I'll never understand why camera companies don't put headphone jacks on video centric cameras. It makes zero sense.

Still no 4K60 uncropped (or at all) and still no IBIS. The first competitor in this market offering these features is going to kill the others. Not having driverless webcam capability and unlimited 4K record time are huge misses as well.

Video quality in the Z30 is far superior than the Sony, I don't know how there's even a debate on that.

No viewfinder makes both of these a hard pass for me. Also your store is way over priced.

FYI - We are based in Canada if you are comparing our pricing to American prices. Our pricing is the same as our Canadian competitors since the manufacturers set pricing rules.

The real answer is to wait for a new body from Sony. They didn't release three new lenses for nothing.
