Sony FX30 vs Sony ZV-E10

[@jo_qYT]

Thanks to your videos I recently bought a zv e10 and I recorded my latest video with it. The quality is night and day compared to my iPhone X. It has pretty much all I need to get good photos and videos, plus the vast amount of lens options will allow me to improve.

[@MarkBennettCameraCrisis]

Great to hear!! It’s a fantastic camera that can do so much especially with all the good lenses available

[@VilkanVisions]

FX30 looks like a great camera but let's be honest, price is the most important factor here. I would get one myself but I personally already have bmppc 6k as a main camera for great image quality and ZV E10 for it's great AF. ZV E10 is probably good enough for most people that are not professional filmmakers 🙂

[@gavincarter3425]

The ZV-E10 is the “Scrappy Doo” of the camera world. No matter what camera is released with mighty specs, the ZV-E10 uses its “puppy power” and says “Lemme at ‘em” I love mine and I would recommend to anyone starting out in photography and videography. 👍🏻👍🏻

[@benicio1967]

Can you tell me if the zve10 can record up to 4-5 hours without overheating and which cards would you buy for longer recording times? I want to film at the beach and some local lakes.

[@gavincarter3425]

@@benicio1967 to be honest I have never used my ZV-E10 continuously for that length of time so never experienced overheating. I know in the setup menu go to power setting option and then Auto Power OFF Temp. There is two options Standard and High. Select HIGH in this mode it is recommended that you shoot using a tripod and with the screen articulated in the out position so heat can disperse. I would also suggest maybe a power bank instead of using batteries if recording 4K in long stints. I use SanDisk extreme pro uhs-1 200mbs. You can get anything from 32GB up to 1TB all great for recording 4K video. I hope this helps.

[@kuramafox1290]

Gavin, what do you think are the best lenses for zve10? I want to be able to make social media content, portrait videos and perhaps wedding photography/cinematography.

[@gregllo424]

@@kuramafox1290 Either Sigma 16mm or 30mm. Best bang for your buck and both excellent quality lenses. OP combo tbh. The quality you can get with these lenses and the ZV-E10 is absurd. It rivals full frame sensor cams for a fraction of the price.

[@gavincarter3425]

@@kuramafox1290 hi, as a starting point you can’t go wrong with the sigma f1.4 primes if you want something more versatile without switching lenses go for the sigma 18-50 f2.8, great light weight lens that is not bad for video and all the lenses I mentioned fit great when using a gimbal.

[@RaneMusic]

I'm glad that I bought the zve10 when I did... Only thing that has been a pain in the A was the shaky handheld footage (especially when it's too dark to use a shutter-speed that looks good with catalyst) so I'd like to see a test with the fx30s IBIS :)

[@butterypopcorn369]

SAME! the reason why I bought the zv e10 is because of Marky...😘😘

I have just ordered mine on Amazon and can't wait to test it out. I took your advise Mark and have been watching your videos for months now. Thank you!

[@Max-Green]

Extremely useful comparing! Now I using Nex5t and it is very ok. So all what I need is zv-e10 no more. Such a relief.

[@MarkBennettCameraCrisis]

it’s so great

[@gordon3988]

My heart started racing as I thought Sony had sent you a Fx30 to test. Come on Sony, ante up! One funny thing I noted that at least one store taking pre-orders here in Canada had attached a premium over and above the $1800 US (adjusted for the exchange rate). Always enjoy your videos and loved the start!

[@Hobbies4Hire]

Great job on the video Mark! Thanks for making it. I currently shoot (mostly outdoors) on an a6400, and have always said I would upgrade as soon as there was a camera that had at least 3 new features that I wanted. One of those "features", I always assumed, would be moving to full frame. So all the lenses that I bought we for full frame. But with the release of the FX30, all of the other features (and there are a lot) are so compelling that it made me reevaluate my need for full frame. Once I decided to embrace the APS-C ecosystem, and that my needs didn't really necessitate going to full frame, I sold all my big glass (including my beloved 20mm G) and started to shop crop. I'm going to get the FX30 eventually, but since I need a back-up camera right now, I've been looking heavily at the ZV-E10. I've always said that the a6400 is the best value-for-dollar STUDIO camera in Sony's lineup, but at an even lower price-point, to get one that has stabilization as well? This could be my go-to.

[@MarkBennettCameraCrisis]

the zv-e10 is such a great camera and a great value. I use it CONSTANTLY

[@sherbert23]

My ZVE10 is a trooper with the sigma 18-50. But also I like that mark only holds the ZVE10 for the comparisons because it’s so light you can forget it’s there sometimes lol

[@GasWorksISO]

Just pre ordered the FX30. My a6600 will be sent on its way to a new owner once it shows up! With its S Cinetone and new menu system, it will match up to my a7iv which my 6600 doesn’t do. FX30 as a dedicated video cam and my a7iv on photo/B video cam it’s gonna be sweet!!

[@pb_oslo]

Eddy is a great name for the FX30! I think the FX30 is great for a pro-level camera, but for now I'm still content with the ZV-E10!

[@fabimesizae]

Interesting comparative. If ZV-E10 had 10 bits for me, it would be perfect. FX30 is definitely better from all technical points of view but I can't stand UHD / 50p crop. For professional productions I think FX3 / a7S3 is better. In Italy FX30 will arrive in December and the list price is 2300 €. Thank you

Sound advice, thank you. A competent, experienced and enthusiastic vlogger can do more with the cheaper consumer gear (even mobiles and action cams) than you'd imagine. Content is key, as is personality. Sure, once it all works out of course you will want to upgrade, but find your feet first and change gear to fix issues rather than chase the mythical 4:2:2 10 bit (which is recompressed anyway after uploading to KZbin). A comparison of 8 bit ZV-E10 to 10 bit 4:2:2 FX30 footage would be nice to see. Keep up the good work - love your style and format.

[@jonmicheals621]

Great Video!!! But I have a question. I just bought an FX 30 and I am really disappointed. The focus breathing, it is just terrible. And even after spending a lot of time with all the presets it is still is really bad. I thought it was my lens. But, when I put that Sigma 23mm 1.4f lens on my ZV-E10 the breathing is minimal. I have tried to search KZbin, but all the examples of setting up the AF are of an older firmware version and the menus don't match what is on my camera, with Version 3.0. To be honest I am ready to send it back and buy another ZV-E10. Thanks I am an Old School video guy and your videos have helped me so much with all this new gear, thanks again.

[@etienneaubert3972]

Love your videos, they are always so helpfull for a newbie like me ! Thanks a lot for your work ! You convinced me to buy my little ZvE10 + Sigman 16mm DCDN 1.4 lense as my first camera ( I was looking something to mainly shoot some Dog education session ) 9 months ago, and I really love it. my only little concern wasa bit too much grain in low light situations, as soon as I was increasing the Iso above 400. Thanks to you, I think that it's time to buy a little F30 brother to my ZvE10 ! ( Well, as soon as I can find one, as currently, I can't really find a store to preorder it in Montreal ).

[@BarryJohnson]

Yep, the ZV-E10 is still compelling for a lot of reasons. Great video.

[@GuitarRJP]

Mark, I have the Sony A7IV, and I use that for photos and some outdoor video that I shoot (Catalyst Browse to the rescue!). Now, I have the Sony FX30 on order, and I like the idea of the minimal crop at 60p, rather than what happens with the ZV-E10, as well as the dual card slots, and the regular battery. However, right now, my primary purpose for another camera is to use in a studio setting for meetings and talking head shots (2nd angle). I don't plan on really "moving" or walking with this camera (I am not a vlogger), so I could get the ZV-E10 and the Sigma trio (currently have just the Sony 24mm F1.4) for about the same price as the FX30! Although, I am planning on getting a gimbal and do more outdoor videos next year, and was hoping for an update to the A6600, and saw the FX30 as something that may help improve the video stuff that I am thinking may be possible. Am I just working myself into a tizzy here or is there an easier explanation?

[@MarkBennettCameraCrisis]

when in doubt, stick with your instinct- the fx30 will be amazing for your studio setting. much better screen, battery life, and controls than the zv-e10. full size hdmi, the 10-bit colour. you’ll love it. the zv-e10 is great too, but the fx30 is a much better studio workhorse

[@ft_sakkinen]

Hello Mark! Got allready ZV-E10 and planning to buy FX30 in near future .... Cos you have both, can you please tell me how to get video files to be matched? You go with similiar setting in FX30 as with ZV or what is your magic to get videos to match in color and in all?

ZV-E10 plus Kit lens (which seems to have improved in manufacturing quality in the last 6 months compared to previous years) = NZD$1400-1500 vs NZD$3400-3500 preorder for the ZX30 body only. My plan is to have the ZV-1, ZV-E10 & ZX30 as my three go tos. I'll really make savings on the lenses and can now justify grabbing one of the Sirui APS-C Anamorphics for the ZX-30 which was far harder to justify for the ZV-E10. also no need for me to bother with FF which saves me oodles of $$$$. When your most expensive lenses are the new Sony trio (other than the Sirui) your camera budget is very reasonable and achievable

Hey Mark, I would assume the handle/hot shoe mount for the FX30 is the same as the ZV-E10? Sooooo, obviously I would LOVE to use the FX30 handle on my E10, but not sure if that would work? Yes, no? Have you tried it? Thanks for any answers if you can.

[@MarkBennettCameraCrisis]

you should be able to use the handle with the zv-e10 in theory, but the problem is that the handle fastens to the fx30 with thumb screws. If you put the handle on the ZVE10, it will slide in to the hot shoe but have no way to secure the handle, so it will be able to slide out at any time. you certainly wouldn’t be able to pick it up.

[@rocketrollsvlogs7625]

Sony should have sent you a camera to test as when I saw the FX-30 release, I came to you and Diana's channels first. They are going to see more ZV-E10 and A6600 users buying this vs the full-frame crowd. I'm going to watch this two or three times.

[@MarkBennettCameraCrisis]

I agree with both statements. Diana makes some killer Sony APS-C content!!

[@draxxicek]

Two things I consider the FX30 is short of a perfect video camera: internal ND filters (ZV-1 has one, that goes for FX3 as well) and uncompressed 4:4:4 RAW output (might be possible via FW updates). And perhaps open gate mode, or anamorphic mode support like the Lumixes.

[@MarkBennettCameraCrisis]

internal nds would be awesome and some of those wonderful Panasonic features would be great too,

[@draxxicek]

I really like the diversity (but it does not come cheap) - last week I shot a video on Ronin 4D, which I originally pre-visualized on a S5. For interviews I am using two ZV-E10, for event recording such as concerts, shows or theatre I am still using Lumix MFT bodies (mostly because when assembling a BYOC team, everyone has basically a GH5/6/G9, so it matches chip/color - wise). Some of my lenses are EF and can be adapted to any of these bodies, but building native mount setup for four different mounts is pricey.

[@MarkBennettCameraCrisis]

The ZV-E10 is an APS-C sized sensor that is basically identical in size to a Super 35. There is no crop in 4k 25 or 25p. There is a 10 % crop in 30p. The APS-C crop is 1.5X compared to it's full frame equivalent (the same as Super 35). The APSC cameras do not crop in Super 35 mode because they are inherently Super 35 already. Hope that clears it up.

[@capics6779]

@@MarkBennettCameraCrisis thank you marc, but please take a look at the HD settings instead of the 4K settings in the zve10. There is shown "super35" when you use HD in 50/50 instead of HD in 100/100. And it crops massive by using HD 50/50. And Sony names it also super 35. Can you please check HD settings to see it? 😄

[@DatingDilemmaBreakdown]

I just had a thought for your upcoming reviews... I can't find any info on this for the FX30... Can you record open gate on the FX30? This is the one really interesting thing about the XHS2 for people who also shoot for vertical. I don't think the FX30 can do open gate, but not sure.

[@MarkBennettCameraCrisis]

no open gate on the Sony. Panasonic is doing it in their new cameras and the XH2S.

[@DatingDilemmaBreakdown]

@@MarkBennettCameraCrisis Ah, so sad :( Sony, go with the times! LOL Anyway, looking forward to your reviews!

[@rabahfdoul4844]

Sorry guys to ask this, but what is this "open gate"? Do you mean without lenses?

[@DatingDilemmaBreakdown]

@@rabahfdoul4844 Open Gate means you can use the entire sensor size. Most sensors aren't 16:9, but more like 4:3... So e .g. on the XH2S, you can record the entire sensor size in pixels. That gives you more pixels, especially vertically, so you can still zoom in to re-purpose your video for vertical shots. On the FX30, the sensor is 26MP, but it seems it only records 21MP for video. For photo it uses 26MP. So, basically, you're losing the vertical space due to no open gate. Hope that makes sense.

[@ayubjonsalimov]

Dude I have a question...is Sony a 6400 with sigma 16 mm F1.4 a good for vlogging?

[@lewcehjitl3282]

Sony Alpha 7 IV with Sony FE 20mm F1.8 is better.

[@project-overland]

Perfectly fine

[@project-overland]

@@lewcehjitl3282 so?

[@panzerschreckpete]

More money than sense.

[@MarkBennettCameraCrisis]

It can be - as long as you use it on a tripod or a small gimbal. The a6400 has no stabilization so the footage will be very shaky handheld

Love your videos! I purchased my own "little dougie" just a few months ago and have been a little afraid to invest too much in lenses because I haven't been sure about that upgrade path (as you said). I am super thrilled to know about the FX30 (this is first I have heard of it) and it's now on my "next year" list because I do feel the need for a 2nd angle camera as I move forward with my plans to start making documentary films. These will still mostly be interview/talking head style content, but I will want to get some b roll and some other types of content that will be more suited to the FX30 as well in the (hopefully) near future.

[@MarkBennettCameraCrisis]

the fx30 will be amazing for your documentaries. great one, two punch wi5 Dougie!!

I love my ZV-E10 😍

[@waynerod10]

This is the video I’ve been waiting for! Thanks Mark! Does the FX30 have a recording light indicator like the ZVE10?

[@MarkBennettCameraCrisis]

yes it does, and the record button actually lights up too

[@waynerod10]

@@MarkBennettCameraCrisis Awesome! Thanks! Now onto re-watching your other FX30 comparison videos 😆

[@muhammadrayhanfirdaus1309]

Hi Mark, Hi everyone, I have a question, hope you'll answer. ZV-E10 is my first target before I fully commit to move on into Sony ecosystem (Currently using Canon 1200D and M50), but was it good enough and worth the money for upgrading? Or should I buy something else?. When I lookup some other equally priced cameras like Lumix GX9, G7, G85, Nikon Z30 even Canon R10. I just can't decide. I wanted some longevity, Canon has various mount and I can't use the lens without adapter. Nikon changed it's mount when they entered mirrorless market, so my old Nikon DSLR lens are useless without mount. And Lumix, despite their exceptional performance, and lightweight cameras, are M43. I worked at school and the most part, photo documentation is my main job, but videos starting to take over my job bit by bit. Not gonna lie, I was haunted by the tight school budget so I must choose quite carefully before I buy.

[@CC.cinematics]

Can the fx30 handle very heavy grades like the fx3

[@MarkBennettCameraCrisis]

Yes, absolutely

[@antoniozurita7920]

The fx30 is much better in low light? (like a a7iii? )

[@MarkBennettCameraCrisis]

not as good as the full frame sony's but should be a bit better than the ZV-E10

[@denisisaac7453]

I really like the ZV-E10 but the Fujifilm X-S10 is an interesting alternative for me because it has a viewfinder Coul you review the X-S10?

[@A.Edilbi]

The price of the fx30 is 1800 dollars after taxes ? Because in Europe there is nothing called before or after taxes like in USA .and the price is 2300 here including taxes

[@MarkBennettCameraCrisis]

well that explains some of the confusion. it’s 1800 usd before tax in the US. but what some people are saying is, depending on where they live, the A7iv is about the same price. but in the US and Canada it’s much more expensive.

[@A.Edilbi]

@Mark Bennett's Camera Crisis i find this very silly and it only exsist in North America. In the rest of the world .the price is final and nobody talks about taxes .the a7iv is 2800 . And the zve10 is 630 dollars. And all includes taxes .the zve10 is pretty cheap
