SONY ZV-E10 II vs. ZV-E10 - Which Camera is Right for YOU?

[@thefilmalliance]

Which two cameras would you like to see compared next? -Joe

[@TravisVarga]

Tammy all day!

[@chylong4370]

I would personally pick the Sony ZV-E10 paired with the Tamron 17-70mm f/2.8 lens. Here’s why: Image Quality and Versatility (Tamron 17-70 f/2.8) The Tamron lens offers significantly better image quality compared to the kit lens. While the ZV-E10II may have some enhancements, the overall improvement in image quality and versatility offered by the Tamron 17-70mm f/2.8 lens is more beneficial for my needs.

[@nikkiboehm1]

Would you recommend the Mark 2 over the Osmo Pocket 3 for mostly vlogging, shorts and sometimes indoor studio like videos as main camera ? Looking for kinda like an all rounder that is easy to use for starting out and will last for a few years

[@historyouuu3495]

Good video, thx from Finland!

[@Luka_Film]

Panasonic S9 & Sony ZV-E1 & Canon R8

[@MarkBennettCameraCrisis]

They are both for me, Joe - and you know it. Great comparison!!

[@thefilmalliance]

I did know this. I just wanted to test you. You passed with flying colors

[@Nirux]

Bought myself the a6700 in the beginning of the year, since I wanted 4k60 and the rolling shutter on my previous ZVE10 was just annoying. When I saw they released this and it has 4k60 too and its cheaper, I was scared at first. Glad to see that the a6700 is just better in every way (No massive 1.5x Crop, way better rolling shutter and prob more features). Nice video

[@thefilmalliance]

Don't forget about the EVF. You're in good hands. What lenses did you get with it?

[@Evernoxx]

This helped me a lot! I just bought the ZV-E10 and then saw the anouncement... But your comparison tells me that I have much to learn and that the mark 1 is more then enough for my needs. I'm going to invest in a lens first.

[@thefilmalliance]

Perfect, and happy you took away some great value. The ZV-E10II is a great camera, but I would take a sigh of relief that you didn't jump the gun and get a camera. That's too complicated if you're starting out. You're going to love the ZV-E10.

[@marcosmarroquin7982]

Incredible! I woke up today excited for the rumored announcement of the mark ii and your video is the first one I see !

@@thefilmalliance I was saving for a6700 but now I think I will go for the mii

[@thefilmalliance]

I don't blame you. If I were in the market for a beginner camera with room to grow, I would get the ZV-E10II

[@8bitWave]

Similar. I was looking at the a6700 as a B cam to pair with my FX30 but I think the ZV-E10 mkii might be the better buy. I heard some people talking about the mechanical shutter difference, but am curious on your thoughts on how much that makes a difference? Great video though!

This video is just insane, the quality of this production deserve a billions view, no kidding. It answered perfectly to all my questions, but in fact I steal dunno if i take Mk1 or MK2, both of them are great.. Not sure to vlog so often, but i want to do it too so... Thanks for your amazing work mate !

[@neutrinostorm]

What a great comparison! Thanks for that! But one thing is missing: the ZV-E10 has a mechanical shutter and, according to my information, the Mark II does not have one. In addition to the ZV-E10, I also have a Sony a6700 and when it comes to taking photos of fast-moving objects, you need the mechanical shutter. Rolling shutter effects are weaker in the electronic shutter than with the ZV-E10, but they are still clearly visible in photos as long as there are fast-moving objects.

[@thefilmalliance]

aha thanks for that info on the ZV-E10 II Are you a hobbyist or doing film full time?

as someone who has multiple sony, 360 and action cameras , 5100, 6300, a7s2, a7s3, a7r a73, 1 inch 360, all go pros hero blacks etc . If in need of a new camera for vlogging, im getting that osmo pocket 3. This was a good video. but man. its just getting crazier out here. most people dont use most of this. at one point I used my dji drone for filming everything lol. just to see if I could, it shoots 5.4k, and has log . and its has a stabilizer and flys! best $1000 camera you can buy. the only issue with that drone is no audio. cant wait to see how crazy it gets in just 8 more months.

[@ProjectLabz]

Hey bud! Awesome video, I think I’ll be buying the zve10 mark ii for my wife. Just wondering what mic you use for your talking head for KZbin?

[@charleslevan8211]

Great comparison, Joe. Wow, you are one thorough guy. I am using a Pocket 3, Insta360 X3, and a GoPro 11 and 12 for my outdoor action film and vlogging. I also have a Nikon D7200 with some very high end glass that I am still getting outstanding stills with. I am currently using my Pocket 3 for studio recording and am looking for an A studio recording camera mainly for the headshot and product showcase feature. I would then relegate the Pocket 3 to a B camera. I am leaning toward the mark ii because I usually shoot in 10 bit and color grade. That said, the Sony mark one with the tamron lens would be much more economical for the limited use I need one of those 2 Sony's for. My dilemma is the color issue. I know you use the Pocket 3 so I was wondering if you sell any luts that would work with the Sony and Pocket 3 to give me a more consistant color grade? I should also mention that I use Davinci Resolve.

[@und3906]

I just bought the ZV-E10 because I was tired of waiting for news of the mark II and of course because of the price which I knew would definitely be more expensive. But I really like the conclusion of this video.

[@thefilmalliance]

Thanks, don't worry the ZV-E10 is still an excellent camera. I plan on continuing to use it even if I end up purchasing the ZV-E10II .

[@Goxilla]

The difference looked pretty obvious on the waterfall and sky shots. I guess the mk2 is absolutely better for outdoor videography. Thx for the helpful review

[@thefilmalliance]

Yes, I agree with you. I think the big difference comes from the 10 bit ZV-E10 II over the eight bit ZV-E10. we really start to see differences in the sky. The sky always looks a little overblown with the ZV-E10

[@kathleenbenjamin4567]

Thanks for the great in depth review. I watched probably 10 you tube videos over the past week and just ordered the ZVE10 2 from your channel.

[@udoloske]

Thank you for this video🙏🏻 I'm a complete newbie when it comes to filming and this video really helped me with my decision. I ordered the ZV-E10 ii today and I'm really looking forward to it. Do you have a video where you explain the best settings for cinematic filming? Specifically what the picture profiles and recording formats are and what's best? Best wishes from Germany

[@geeleduc]

Should I trade my Sony a7sii for either of these cameras? I’m into vlogging and urban exploration. I’d like to know what you think.

[@John_the_baptized]

Great review! The biggest problem that I have for both cams is no viewfinder. Then the rest of it comes down to price. I would prefer the mark i because I’m new and I’m pretty sure my PC hardware won’t be able to handle the top performance out of either camera. First gen gets my vote

[@belleanna09]

Your video is the first I’ve seen on the new Sony ZV-E10 Il. Great work and love the gizmo to check how quick they heat up! Really appreciate that info! Thanks for the great video!!

[@thefilmalliance]

Thank you. The ZV-E10 was ahead of its time for sure,but the ZV-E10II is the new kid on the Block and time will tell if it will be a classic. I think it will be.

[@radiomayapur]

The "how quick they heat up" I can address. We run a studio 3-camera shoot with ZV-E10. We have the LCD screen open on all three, and all three use dummy batteries. The Settings have the high heat setting turned on. We did an 8-hour test of the camera's recording to an ATEM Mini Pro ISO, and there were no heat warnings and no shutdown. I'm assuming it would be different if they did not have dummy batteries and were recording internally. But for our studio setup, you could run them for days without any problem.

Great comparison, thanks for the hard work required to make this! For stationary talking-head videos like podcasts/interviews it seems like the mark i is fine and the mark ii wouldnt be a huge benefit

[@thefilmalliance]

Yes I agree to that statement. the ZV-E10 will work for tripod use well and the ZV-E10 II for moving shots. Does that make sense?

[@RealJoshBinder]

@@thefilmalliance It does -- thanks!

[@Chrstphr03]

Love the Viltrox 13mm. Having the ZV-E10, I'd continue with it while waiting for Sony's update to the FX30. Reason being, the updates in comparison can be reflected in version one with skill, an external mic [rigged out], and color grading. New cameras hit the market so often that I prefer to wait for larger leaps in software before making a purchase. That said, the ZV-E10 II is a welcomed upgrade.

[@thefilmalliance]

This was an excellent comment. I can see you are smart with your purchases and not an impulse buyer. I agree on everything you said and I’m excited for an update with the FX30. The ZV-E10II is a great little camera, especially for beginners nowadays. Imagine when you first started out having the option to buy this camera for $999. We live in pretty cool times. Thanks again for the thoughtful comment.

[@azerbouf]

ZV-E10 still is the best WFM for me. What about AF? Are they using the same system?

[@thefilmalliance]

That's awesome. You know what is best for you. The AF in the ZV-E10II is better because it can focus on humans, animals and birds and has more autofocus points

Although this the E10 ii would be a significant upgrade to my E10, (which btw is my first real camera), I feel that the recent purchase of the a6700 is just better. An added plus is the EVF that the a6700 has. E10 ii doesn’t have it, and personally, having an EVF is a definite must. Great video as always, my man. 🍻

[@thefilmalliance]

Thanks for that. I agree if you are a photographer or a hybrid user, then I would go with the a6700 but if you're just a basic content creator, who wants great image quality then the ZV-E10 II would be your go-to camera

[@DWebbTheOldHead]

@@thefilmalliance~ Yeah, but with the lack of IBIS, mechanical shutter, and the AI features that the a6700 currently has, leads me to a hard pause on purchasing the E10 2. For now I’ll just stick with my E10, and a6700. I’ll kick the tires on the FX30 here and there until I’m ready to pull that proverbial trigger. 🍻

As a ZV-E10 I user and having done reviews about it, I would love to get it for review purposes. The battery size and newer features are so tempting for the Mark II such that I might sell off the Mark I for the Mark II. Not sure how it compares with the A6700.

[@thefilmalliance]

I interpreted your comment to mean that you didn't notice any drawbacks to not having a mechanical shutter in he ZV-E10 II when looking at the photography shots in this video. For street photography, a mechanical shutter won't affect the camera, except for capturing moving objects.

Hello, I bought my ZVE10 in March, and I enjoy using it a lot. What I did was invest in prime lenses. Here I only had the body, so I bought a Sony 50mm 1.8; after I decided to buy a Viltrox 20mm 2.8; after I bought a Sony 55mm-210mm; and now I bought a macro tube extension from Viltrox. Put all the prices together, everything cost me, including VAT of 23%, around 1200 euros. So it was even cheaper than the Sony 6700 body. Of course, you do not need to buy all these lenses. If you can find the camera with kit lenses, it is a good deal.

I would say go with the ZV-E10 II and Viltrox 13mm but that depends on the available room space and your budget. Yes the ZV-E10 is a great camera but for a few extra hundred $ you could have an amazing camera. What are your thoughts?

[@ngof8983]

@@thefilmalliance hi there your quiz told me to get something else but that camera was a bit out of budget Ok so that lens is good for wide lens? For vlogging? How abt the kit lens it comes with? Thank you

[@markofadljevic1975]

Zv-e10 mkII is the best buy aps-c camera today.

[@earthwalkingtours]

Great explanation! I'll was considering Pocket 3 but now I think Sony ZV E10 Mii would be a better option.

[@thefilmalliance]

Thank you, Don't forget you'll have to add a decent lens to your budget, so you're looking at almost $1K more for the ZV-E10II over the Osmo Pocket 3

[@earthwalkingtours]

@@thefilmalliance Well said! Pocket 3 with the creative combo coat around 700$. Even it's Image quality, low light is performance is excellent. But, there are some limitations of lenses. Spending 1k$ on Sony ZV-E10ii would give me more lenses options. It's a great value for money. I would be greatful to have your opinion on this. By the way I've been watching and learning alot from this channel. Thank you so much!

[@thefilmalliance]

Great point. You're enticing me to do an Osmo Pocket 3 vs ZV-E10 II video. haha

[@CreativeStudiosFM]

Good video. Seems like a modest improvement. Honesty om thr intro with the waterfall i liked the original zve10 better than the mark ii. I wouldnt think it would be worth anyone upgrading. For someone like me who owns neither, im think go with thr cheaper one on sale or just pay more to go up a level or two to one of their higher series cameras. Thanks for posting. Enjoy yoir content.

[@thefilmalliance]

Thanks. Yes it does have quite of few nice upgrades. You can wait for ZV-E10 II to hit the used market.

[@graffmixer]

I was waiting for you to cover this!!! Thanks for the depth review and comparisons of both cameras. I actually sold my ZV-E10 anticipating that the Mark II will come out. What was left out on the previous version I’m happy to see on the Mark II. I actually have the SmallRig cage from the previous version of the camera. Will that cage fit the Mark II?

[@thefilmalliance]

Hey, thanks, no I don’t think the old small rig cage will fit. They’re pretty different in body sizes

[@imema01]

Fantastic video, as always. Wondering if you will do also a comparison between a6700 and zv-e10II. I think btw i'm going with the zv cause i prefer more to do video, especially when i travel around the world

[@thefilmalliance]

good idea. Yes, I definitely plan on comparing those two cameras. The ZV-E10II and the a6700 have the same sensor, so we would have to look at their differences from a technical standpoint

[@imema01]

@@thefilmalliance it will be perfect. I'm a little scared about the absence of the ibis on the zve10 II, so i would like to know if the 400 extra of the a6700 are worth it

[@thefilmalliance]

I know what you mean

[@jdjagdish1]

Underrated channel ❤

[@jakobankerhansen]

Thanks for the best ZV-E10 II review 👌👍 Can the ZV-E10 II do recording directly to a USB-connected SSD ? Will the recording work up to 4K30, or what are the limitations ? The large V90 version SD cards are very expensive. If the answer is yes, can you then afterwards connect the SSD to a computer and read the files directly, or will it be in another format, or the SSD is formated differently ?

[@pallavi.and.ishit.mathur]

I am planning to purchase either 6700 or e10 ii.. a comparison video would be helpful.

[@thefilmalliance]

Ok that will be added to the queue

[@AriTayy]

Awesome video! What plugins do you use for editing? The two camera angles with your head shot? Video is great!

[@thefilmalliance]

Thanks, we created those here in the studio

[@AriTayy]

@@thefilmalliance Do you have a course or video for this?

[@Godhearsyourthoughts]

Hey! I’m between a6700, or this camera. I don’t know all the lingos. As I am a visual learner and kind of “learn as you go” person. I have to have it in front of me. I guess someone would consider me a beginner. But a willing to learn beginner! I am going to be shooting interview (testimony style) videos so majority of time it’ll be sit down videos. I also will be doing some street interviews here and there as well as a little bit of photography but not too much. I’ll also be doing sit down videos, small spoken word poetry videos and such. What camera would you recommend for this? I would be shooting inside of a church so they can be a bit dark inside. So I’ll need a good low light camera. Testimonies and videos will be pretty lengthy so I’ll need something that I can either buy a fan for if there’s any issues or that won’t shut down at all. I’m not gonna lie… this is all getting a bit overwhelming with so many different opinions and options. It’s hard. I took your quiz and got the FX30 as a suggestion but I don’t think know 😢 any suggestions?

[@drbdrbrobertdrbdrb]

Very good in depth comparison, thanks for taking the effort to dive into so much detail! Question: I'm wondering if the ZV-E10 II has the Auto ISO min SS function? For some reason this was absent on the ZV-E10 mark I, which I missed in a lot of situations. Can you confirm the mark II does have this function? Cheers!

[@thefilmalliance]

Hey, thanks, I don't know; I already sent the ZV-E10 II back. Im sorry

Great vid! Could you compare a6700 vs zve 10 ii?

[@thefilmalliance]

Yes will do very soon

[@BradPerfect]

Definitely, looking for a comparison to the a6700. By the way, Can this new ZV E10 ii shoot 10-bit Slog 3 in 1080p at 120 fps?

[@thefilmalliance]

Okay will do. That’s a great question. It can shoot in s-log3 in 1080 but not sure if it reverts to 8 bit. Ill have to check when I get to shoot with it again

[@BradPerfect]

@@thefilmalliance Thank you! Will be waiting for the answer.

Hey Brad, Ok will do

[@LonerJoe]

I wonder if the market is going to be flooded with people trying to sell there ZV-E10 to buy the mark II. Im thinking about doing just that.

[@thefilmalliance]

Great point. You can also wait for the ZV-E10 II to hit the used market.

[@TravisVarga]

wow, zve-10 was ahead of its time - i see you rocken my same setup Tamron and the PolarPro filter @5:51 yew!

[@thefilmalliance]

Hey Travis, yes it was. It’s an awesome set up. Quick, portable, and great image quality out of the ZV-E10. I actually don’t own the Tamron 17-70. I just rented it while I was testing out the ZV-E10II. Do you notice when you’re using the polar pro ND filter, your white balances are all off?

[@TravisVarga]

@@thefilmalliance Cool - Hmm yes slightly cause when i use it alongside my Hoya UV on the other lenses, or K&F, seems a little different. Not far off though just matching wise a bit. It's the one with a Polarizer built in too though, unsure if yours is. And I kinda suspected that did it a little - I don't mind it's though it's not too bad for my workflow.

[@thefilmalliance]

Cool, yes maybe I have to make sure I wasnt custom WB and locking in a warmer kelvin. Thanks for the reply!

[@TravisVarga]

@@thefilmalliance For sure, yes white balance seems to have improved on ZV-E1 vs say my A7siii - but I just realized yesterday that the 'settings for white balance' aka the Cloud, Sun etc can actually change I think and arn't a locked in Kelvin. I always thought they were. So think now always gonna put exact Kelvin I need lol, Sony makes it extra hard not being able to set white balance while in Manual mode the old school way lol.

[@thefilmalliance]

I know it. Thanks for your input. I appreciate it

[@PJmusica]

Great review. Thank you. 👍

[@SkyVisionStudiosLLC]

Please make a comparison to the a6700. Is stabilization the same on the zve102 and 6700?

[@thefilmalliance]

Okay will do, Im not sure yet. I'll have to test it out. Thanks, So will you be preordering the ZV-E10 II ?

[@SkyVisionStudiosLLC]

@@thefilmalliance I don’t think so. I’m considering the a6700 and the mk2. But Amazon has the a6700 for like $1263. Or so I stick with my ZVe10 mk1 for now?

[@thefilmalliance]

Ok, I hear ya. Yes, let me make that comparison first before we make any final decisions

[@sNIKersnOMAd]

little bit expensive compare to previous version and canon r50 but i get it, there're a lot of extra features came a long with mark 2.

[@thefilmalliance]

Yes the ZV-E10II has a lot of great upgrades from the ZV-E10. I guess it depends on what region you live in as far as pricing goes.

[@stewartvill5410]

Nice thorough review! Who are the people editing behind you?

[@thefilmalliance]

Thanks, those are our editors

[@TimBrownTown]

My focus is travel vlogs. 95% Video. Stab is important so I'm leaning to the A6700. Plus the 4k/120 is nice. I would love to have the ZV-E1 but I think it's overkill for my use case and I think there will be a better alternative in a few years and the A6700 might be an interim before I go Full Frame. Do you think the IBIS and 4k/120 worth it for my use case?

[@thefilmalliance]

I think the ZV-E1 is overkill for what you need. I'd say go with the ZV-E10II. Its got all the latest and greatest bells and whistles for what you are doing

[@TimBrownTown]

@@thefilmalliance A6700 also overkill? I love that I can use active stab at a 1.13 crop and then if needed use catalyst.

[@thefilmalliance]

Well, the a6700 is a lot closer to not being overkill compared to the ZV-E10II. Let me put a comparison together and see what I come up with before I give you an answer on that one.

[@TimBrownTown]
