[@ThaiMyStyle]

Great Video again Jason :) As the A7c is cheaper, would that be a better deal, especially as the A7c is better in low light? Thanks Icecy...

[@sheldonwhite4960]

OK I am in love with this camera, but the lens is going to be stupid expensive oh my God I have a canon 80 D since 2016. I think I am going to love this camera. It’s perfect time to switch over to Sony 😊

[@Reggierecipes]

Yasssssssssss yasssssssss u dooooooooooooo!!! Said in the bogeyman voice

[@WEHAVETHISDREAM]

There’s no 4k 120fps bruh… Hold your horses. Cool intro, though. It would have been a dream camera if they did leave the 120fps in 4k.

[@WEHAVETHISDREAM]

P.S. Firmware update? For the 120fps? :)))))))))))))) This is like Fallout games since Bethesda took over 🙈 We will release a game, albeit a camera…. And finish it later 🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈 Wow…. 2023 looks nice. I would laugh so hard, if Sony forgets about that firmware update. Cause you know that that is a possibility, right?

[@fjhphoto]

I don't need another camera, I don't need another camera, I don't need another camer-

[@JasonVong]

BUT IT'S SO SMALL

[@fjhphoto]

@@JasonVong alright, I'm buying it.😅

[@indianempire8908]

But the camera needs you😂

[@kongsicerah8276]

But I still want ZV-E1😂.

[@dymanh]

Lol 😂😂😂

[@DreamWeaverfilm]

Your knowledge and personality made learning about this camera such a thrill! Great job on the content man, keep it up. We truly appreciate it

[@Hobbies4Hire]

Great job on the video Jason! Thanks for making it.

[@jostalking]

so excited for this Jason thanks for doing this video

[@jarelroxas8713]

THIS IS CRAZY!!! Love how hyped you are for this camera!

[@JasonVong]

Bro. I’ve been waiting forever. This is it!

[@lumpiaqueen]

Super thanks for the informative and exciting video, Jason! Congratulations, I was planning on buying 1 but now you make me wanna get 2.

[@JasonVong]

Haha nice!! This definitely replaces a couple bodies in my kit!

[@jaimelondonboy]

As soon as this camera was officially announced, your channel is the first place I went to. I knew your review wouldn't disappoint and never does!

[@JasonVong]

Much appreciated Jaime thank you!!!! 🥰🥰🥰

[@Chaotime]

Love your energy, man!!! Great review too!

[@alphafilms_at]

such an awesome energy in this video! just awesome watching your vid! :D

[@Deliric1Nebunu]

Good Video and keep going.. i learn and follow your work from a couple of good months and I love it .. helps me a lot .. :)

[@glyndewis]

Great video Jason. Just got a ZV-E1 through from Sony to run with for a few weeks and really looking forward to it. Already done some Webcam tests with it plugged into USB-C keeping it powered so no dummy battery needed and in 1080p (perfect for webcam) the quality is insanely good PLUS with the battey door open, no overheating after 3 hours 👍🏻

[@DigiDriftZone]

Awesome! - That's how I'm hoping to use mine too so this is great to read!

[@WayneLLC]

That illustrative scene in AI auto framing at 15:38 had me die laughing. Always love your video centric sharing - really shows your competency level from a pro and consumer perspective. Thank you Jason!

[@SupplyNinja]

Your reviews are phenomenal. Excellent work bro!

I don’t really like most camera reviews and KZbinrs, but I always look forward to Jason’s reviews! Your style is entertaining and fun.

[@PaulEnoch]

Free edutainment

[@JuanTheMon]

I know nothing about cameras but saw your reel on ig and had to watch the video! Super good video and made me want one of these and upgrade from my zv1

[@EvianPutra]

Well, I know that Sony markets this camera to Vloggers, but as a travel vlogger, I do not think this camera suits me. First, although it has a quite small body compared to A7's body, the actual problem of full-frames portability is on their big and heavy lenses. Instead of keeping to reduce the body's size and taking away features like EV and the wheels which are really crucial sometime, it's better for Sony to develop more portable FF Lenses for vloggers, ex: using lighter material, better specced pancake, etc. Second, Sony doesn't realize that vloggers also take photos and with 12 MP in 2023, it is really a No Go for photography. Looking at those two big issues, I'll stick to A7C for now. By the way, it's a nice and clear review! Well done!

[@nightdonutstudio]

zve10 is all vloger needed.

[@rutayanx]

You have an amazing story telling style and narration!

[@MuhammadKharismawan]

its the AI chp and sensor, making it as fast and reliable as A7r5 for autofocus with the low light sensitivity of A7sIII, all that for 2/3rd the price make it a pretty lethal combination.

[@TheLoneBoar]

so hyped, makes me wanna buy one. thanks for the detailed first look video

[@TomFranc]

Jason, this is an absolute masterpiece of a review. Got me LOLin, love the passion, and looking forward to season 2!!

[@JasonVong]

Thank you Tom!!

[@ScottsReviews]

Awesome job so entertaining and informative

[@Slang_Forever]

Thank you for specifying the rolling shutter not being bad on this one

[@shewhoisaudacious]

Love you. You have the best Sony reviews. So entertaining.

[@thetalkingfly]

Fun and informative review! Thanks.

[@PoetWithPace]

Oh Jason how i love your intro (made me sub!)...and the camera. Probably best investment i have ever made for my KZbin channel.

[@neowy]

Whoa! This is truly exciting!

[@JuanMoris_]

Definitely the most energetic intro in a ZVE1 review yet. loved it.

[@-AtomsPhere-]

This camera looks cool but I really hope it’s not replacing the a7C line. I want an EVF and a higher megapixel sensor 😭

[@HSNG10]

Since I'm 7:3 photo to video user, I'm excited to see what Sony will do with the a7C II... Hopefully it'll be enhanced with similar video features...

[@THECASUALco]

So Jason... I just realized that you came to Japan and I didn't see you HERE! Upset

[@TheDcm50]

This manages to be so damn funny and so damn informative at the same time! thank you !

[@jemlang]

They definitely went hard on this camera. A great cam for vloggers. Great B cam for higher level youtubers.

[@jayfokichu]

love the overview on this camera!

[@Thenelsoncarmona]

This video hyped me up so much! Glad I waited on getting the a7c. ZV-E1 + 20-70mm G

[@rizzeen4908]

Wow awesome love this cam

[@lia_pryce]

Pretty sweet! Great video

[@calebrasak6941]

The A7C is still my work horse. This camera is exciting though. Would be an awesome B cam to the A7C for better low light performance. I would like to carry both honestly.

[@scottrobert]

thanks buddy! i rather have the crop a bit and have better stabilization cuz i'm primarily a still as you know. great job!

[@GunslingerMediaCo]

YESS!!!!!! Finally!!!! How’s the overheating though? I’ve been afraid of that for weeks now.

[@JasonVong]

20:22

[@GunslingerMediaCo]

@@JasonVong I got overly excited. I commented as soon as I started the video, I saw it eventually. Thanks, but you didn’t need to share the time code. Appreciate it Jason 🙏🏼

[@cinematicdlp]

I love the disneyland intro !!! whish have this camera for my disney vlogs!I still use my old a7s2 and the zve10 and a dji pocket and action2 ....

[@WhipItSBreezy]

Hilarious and Informative review! Loved the video and I'm definitely getting this camera when it releases thanks to your pros & cons

[@PeterGregg]

One of the VERY FEW videos I have watched where I wanted it to go on longer 😎 Big thumbs up 👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@MarlonKingShow]

Finally, though a dash late, I just bought a Samsung s23 ultra with 4 lenses on it. Is a beaut as well for vlogging purposes on a minimal rig. But this was what I had waited for for so long and never happened.... until 2 months after. Oh well. Still good news for the camera industry.

[@simchang6339]

Thanks! QUALITY content. Keep it up!

[@JasonVong]

Thanks Sim!!!

[@darkktint5974]

Man you just went BEAST MODE on the 4 k 60 without crop gesture like it's been boiling for the last 3 years. Lol what a signature moment. You got a new sub baby. Keep them coming.

[@JasonVong]

Every single release since the a7SIII, I have always said “needs to be smaller and 4k60p no crop” AND NOW WE FINALLY HAVE IT! 🔥🔥🔥

[@foreigntome]

Thank you for being honest about the overheating "stopping point" issue...

wow, looks like a amazing tool

[@JasonVong]

been loving it the moment I got it!

[@joelarrarte8486]

Camera's not too bad either!

[@CheatDayEats]

Loved testing it out

[@hongtheroad3757]

Hey Jason, I know it's been a while since the release of this camera. And your channel is the only one I look up to regarding the sony camera setting. I've done everything you said in this video and the camera works great except for one question that's been bothering me: do you suggest shooting the footage in straight-out color or using log shooting mode with the flexible ISO. Or do you suggest using log shooting in particular circumstances? would you mind sharing some of your experience with log-shooting knowledge. PEACE!!!

[@haseenmultimedia3103]

Thanks for another amazing video Jason. Is there anyway on this camera that you could take high res photos while recording a video at the same time? I think I could fall in love with this camera. Rolling shutter looks amazing.

[@rjrjrjj4461]

thank you Jason!

[@nicoleayache215]

I didn't even have to watch the whole thing, your enthusiasm sold me. 😅❤

[@dashinarnie]

Great review. Thanks

[@jorgegil572]

Ha! Great video bro! I pre-ordered two this morning before I watched your video and boom 🤯 one white and one black 😂

[@MonkeyOnMyBackOutdoors]

Excellent video brother! The more I watch these videos the more I’m favoring the ZV-E1….

[@TheStewarts]

It’s simple Jason post a video I get the alert and then I watch 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾

[@JasonVong]

❤!!

[@WillCaban]

This video literally got me insanely pumped!!!!!!!!!!!!!!’ Jason you…….!!!!!!

[@JasonVong]

HYPE HYPE HYPE

[@fof64]

Thanks Jason

[@NONONFAMILY]

Thank you for review❤

[@NightOwlsMedia]

I LOVED YOUR REVIEW SO MUCH!!! I always love your energy. This camera would have been a no-brainer for an overseas shoot I have coming up, then I heard the price. Sadly, this will be a solid pass for me. But your review was flawless.

[@trailblazer_nomad]

Hello, Jason. Would you recommend this camera for travel and hiking videos?

[@vdan2879]

Love your style. It cracked me up

[@kayjaylin]

MWUAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Where's my 9:16 black bars?!

[@Masterrobsen]

it would be perfect for low light shooting and, for me, for shooting on festivals and clubs/disco where lowlight performance means everything

[@DJWoody714]

That's exactly what I want it for. I want to replace my A6500 with something compact that fits on my DJ bag. I don't always want to carry my A7IV with me. This looks like it would be perfect!

[@bankomeister11]

Ooh I think this is the camera I have been waiting for! But I don’t have time to find best settings and workflow for my life. I would love to see videos on settings & choosing a small lens kit. I currently have a6600 & mostly shoot with Sony 24mm f1.8 but need a walk around zoom that isn’t massive

[@ranjinirajainfilm]

So which one now , coming from a a6400 - the fx30 or this?? Or will a apsc upgrade be coming soon toooo?

[@MXrider5383]

I just got my first Sony a couple months ago, I found and ended up getting the a6300 with 4 batteries and a 3 slot battery charger for $374 and the Sigma 30mm 1.4 for $189 at National Pawn. Both are in mint condition and I couldn't be happier with my purchases. I also got the DJI Ronin SC brand new for less than $200 in January!

[@minibuns5397]

I’ve seen INCREDIBLE award winning images taken with this exact camera body.

[@DwayneNielsen]

Very nice

[@ahumeniy]

I whish my A5100 would use touch for navigating menus and controlling camera functions instead of just focusing. This looks great.

[@Krio-Li]

SO MUCH THANKS for your nice review over this new Sony Monster, i am defintely go for it !! Killer function swallow apsc lens and full frame lens and keep auto-focus is INSANE!! I was struggle with FX30 or A7s4, and now, BOM! Sony please just take my money!!

[@singaporedan7701]

I love your humorous take on all your videos 😂😂😂

[@howglucosemoves]

Does this mean that that this camera with the Sony 11mm f1.8 apsc lens would be great to use for vlogs? Or would the fx30 still be the preferred for you? Thanks Jason!

[@LimReviews]

That energy in the first minute of the video got me 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯

[@_christianlowe]

fantastic content!

[@danielsin]

YESS can't wait!

[@PAOandMATT]

What do you think which better Sony zv1 or the canon m50? Can't decide what to buy for my channel? Thanks

[@HopeProphecy]

Great review! Do you know if the ZV-E1 has 16bit or 24 bit audio? What is the best XLR adaptor to add to it? Thanks!

[@DanielHYNg]

I'll be getting this Sony ZV-E1. Looks super cool. Will the FE PZ 16-35 mm F4 G lens match well with this? As an amateur and newbie, I am into videography and vlogging. What lens would you recommend?

[@lcollet4530]

Jason!! Please help. Should i get this or fx30? I am video first and photo second. What do you recommend? Thank you man

[@teompa]

What is the material from which the Sony ZV-E1 is made? Polycarbonate or metal (magnesium or aluminum)?

[@a.nizhegorodskiy]

Amazing, bro! Its a great day for all of us

[@yourmagicfilm]

This is a sick camera with an intro that compliments it. Awesome job Jason!!!

[@aryssavermont1491]

Can I just say that I love the intro? 😂😂😂😂😂 It's like a WWE light hearted intro

[@florinG]

Great review, I'm getting one.

[@DrClumber]

Thanks @Jason Vong for your usual in-depth review :) If I combined this with a 200-600 would the AF help me track birds in flight? Either for photography or video? I realise the lack of EVF is a problem, but if the AF is as strong as the A7Rv... It's a good bit cheaper!

[@tuelamtv]

great video. i like your style

[@AsiaStreet365]

Great review, made me want too buy one.

[@in.hindsight]

Love your review! I'm a beginner and thinking the ZV-E10 is a good starter for me but now I'm wondering if I should be looking at the ZV-E1 instead.

[@henryrodriguezdeleon7643]

Great video! I am a newbie to the Sony platform and I have an older a6000. Would I be able to use all my other e-mount lenses with the ZV-E1?

[@atticusark]

Extraordinary Presentation

[@wywarren]

I hope they come out with something similar to VMC-BNCM1 to support timecode and it really can expand the horizons even further.

[@nowproducing]

could you use that adapter with this cam?

[@andyelliott1866]

Starting my KZbin channel. More travel , storytelling would you buy the FX 30 or the ZV E1? I am currently using the zv 1

[@aqmedia8000]

Yep. Im buying one now.

[@zZjak793Zz1]

This is the only review of this camera we need

[@nafnaf0]

I remember your video from May 2021 and thought of you with this camera release!

[@JasonVong]

YES!! You remember! I had to go back to that video and made sure I wasn’t crazy 😅

[@wendywitzig119]

Awesome, once it timed out for heat, how long did it take to cool down to use again?

[@tau_tv]

ok, i've been shooting photos on a 5dm3 since it came out. i want to upgrade my main photo camera (for personal and professional use), but i also want to get into videography. what's a great combo right now? a7rv and this sony zve1? or maybe just get a sony a7iv? anything would be better than a 5dm3, right?

[@tomshearman1869]

Amazing Video! Looking to shoot in studio ballet tips. Would this be the camera for me?

[@coolroyl1939]

thank you so much for your best high quality review..... we want to know how is this camera will perform with "Zhiyun Crane M3" gimbal ,

[@MichaelHeredia]

Welp…. I was happy with my APS-C lineup and didn’t miss Full Frame cameras too much but man… I want this!
