@@RodneyGracia excellent question that I don't have an answer for because... I forgot to take it off. Oops!! It completely slipped my mind. I do have another sticker that I may add on and then remove at a later time. Sorry I don't know

I think it's this right angle audio jack: amzn.to/3JFzyY5

Oops, might be this: Seadream 2PACK 6 inch 3-Pole 3.5mm Male Right Angle to 3.5mm Female Stereo Audio Cable Headset Extension Cable Replacement for Beats Dr. Dre Studio iPhone,M to F Audio Cable a.co/d/6x0bfdr

I couldn't agree more... Zv1 is the best value in the bunch, in my opinion, especially if you can get it used or on discount!

Just picked this Up off the Shelf after years to use for portable Picture printing, Had Issues With my small rig cage, since recently Fixed" and 5 min video shutoff while filming art vids (any advice) Geat review! this camera Looks Incredible!!

@@AJTrucker true, I think that would be a great combination as well. I suppose because it's a somewhat expensive APSC lens with a rather expensive full frame camera, whereas the sigma 16 is a lot older and cheaper, but I'd prefer Sony's if I had it...

I really appreciate that... It's a strange but wonderful lens that's both easy to use but also complicated to master. Thanks for stopping by and sharing that!!

Hello, I really appreciate your thoughtful comment and I understand how complicated learning about photography/videography can be... I am still using my 8 Pro and have made a few videos with them including this 6 months later review: ua-cam.com/video/rEnn_z8uxWA/v-deo.html However, I don't know if it's helpful enough in getting you started with general settings nor do I know any content creators teaching that specific topic, but maybe something I will consider. All I can say, is you just have to start doing it and publishing and you will get better and learn more with each video. Yet, feel free to ask me any questions you have along the way. Best of luck and thanks again!!

@@BrianCatalano thanks, I appreciate your response and I actually just watched that video, so thanks again🙂 I don't know if smart phone content creation videos for dummies is a profitable niche (can you even get affiliate money doing them?) or not, but if you end up doing something like that, I'll definitely be watching.

@@tracy419 well, I do think there are more people like you out there who are making content on their phones, especially now as the quality has improved so much... and many more will be doing the same in years to come, so I will consider a video like that in the future. Thanks for the idea!!

@@jannarkiewicz633 yes, that's a fantastic option too. My only reluctance at purchasing it is the size and weight. I recently purchased Viltrox's 20 f2.8, which is super cheap and lightweight and wish Viltrox made the 16 more similar, less metal and without the LED screen to reduce the size of it. That would have been nice but...either way, the 16 is fantastic and should be on this list!

Hello! I'm well... And yourself?

@@michelhuyskens9790 I can't tell you how nice it is to hear this... I appreciate you stopping by and taking the time to comment, and I'm glad you found this helpful (flexible ISO is legit confusing)! I'm also considering picking up the a6700 as it's an amazing hybrid for the price... Thanks again!!

@@jannarkiewicz633 I really appreciate that... That's my aim with each video, to show people if a product is worth picking up and buying or skipping... So thanks for that feedback. Helps more than you know!!

@@OrientalClassicalCharm that's a beautiful sentiment

I wish I knew precisely but the cage does allow space for most wireless systems so I would presume that it would but I can't say for sure...

@@robertocalderonabogado1427 thank you... And that's completely fair. You definitely get what you pay for, but for the price it's not a bad back up, but you're right about the sound.

@@andreww6009 the iPhone 14 is equally good. The pixel is better with some things and the iPhone is better with others but both cameras are more than good enough!

I totally understand that sentiment... and honestly it's something I'm constantly working on. I look back on old videos and cringe at both the video and audio quality... And all I aim for is to hopefully get better sound with each video, so I get you!

@@stevearita3267 agreed! Their mono/black and white is so good!

That sounds like a perfect addition to your lens-lineup! It's crazy how compact the 20 is and how well it performs!! Hope you enjoy it as much as I have...

@@spigot_holdings I'd love that too but unless @googlepixel sends me a demo copy, it may be hard for me to afford to upgrade... But we'll see!

@@BrianCatalano fair enough!!😄

@@spigot_holdings ... here's hoping though!

@@howardhdavidson you might be right... I will say though after I updated all my lenses and the camera, it has fixed almost all the issues. However, I haven't tried that lens... Just to clarify, do you mean the Sony 24 f1.4?

@@howardhdavidson I'm sorry to hear that... What firmware is the camera on?

@@RSTYChannel that's a good question... but I'm not totally sure if there's a certain setting to get the best quality out of it, especially in video except making sure whatever you are shooting is well lit... because it's only 720p so compared to 4k it's going to look bad. You could spend money trying to upscale it with software like Topaz but I don't think it's a good idea. For me, I know its limitations and enjoy it for what it is and I still find the photo quality totally usable. I love taking pictures of the moon with it. It's a fun camera but it shows its age!

@@TomScryleus hey Tom! Appreciate you checking in, feels like my videos are taking longer and longer to make, but I'm 2/3rds of the way through a compare, contrast video between the zve1 and the A7Cii. I'm trying to keep it under 25min but it's a beast, and I'm trying to find a more sustainable way to make shorter videos going forward. Here's hoping!!

@@BrianCatalanocool. by the way, did you see that Kasey from camera conspiracies got himself the zve1?

@@TomScryleus I'm just watching his video now! I've been saying this since the zve1 came out that once the online hate fever breaks, people are going to realize how great the camera really is!

@@schoeferfilm agreed! There's a lot of interesting ways to use this lens, I'm aiming to do some portrait work with it soon!!

I definitely think, generally speaking, you are correct! However, I cut/modify all my skins to specifically reduce this effect as much as possible. Here's how I do it: ua-cam.com/video/0DEcELV5Hqk/v-deo.html

@@ericparlatore I totally get that conundrum as the S22 and the pixel8 seem really different up front, but I do think if you do switch, you'll probably adjust pretty quickly and will miss somethings with the Samsung but maybe love some unexpected features of the Google. Don't think there's a bad option with either though... and the pixel 9 is dropping very soon, too!

@@bradl2636 I know! Although, we have gotten some smaller bodies and smaller lenses in general (especially full frame) but I think people still like the ergonomics of bigger cameras! I find Canon and Nikon always make beefy cameras

That's a great question and hard to fully answer as I think it really depends on how flexible one is. I currently have a canon camera, a Nikon, a Fuji, a GoPro, DJI mini 2, my Google pixel 8 pro, and two Sony's right now... And it's always a pain to toggle between them because all their menu systems are so different. Yet, for me I sort of enjoy trying to learn new systems and like the challenge. The newer Sony's are the best for me, but the zv1 has the older Sony menu which isn't awful but takes a bit to get used to. However, with the zv1 it's still one of the easiest cameras to just pick up and shoot if you don't mind everything in intelligent auto and then you can slowly adjust as you learn more. So it's hard to say if it will be a huge learning curve for you in particular, but for me, it's been worth it! Hope that helps!

@@BrianCatalano Thanks for the reply. What about the zoom range?

@@jensz9360 I mean the sx740's zoom range is crazy good and unmatched for it's size... And if zoom range is your priority then looking into a bridge camera might be the way to go, but the zv1 is a better hybrid point and shoot if you don't mind it's more moderate zoom range. Tough to compare the two though as again, it's hard to know what your focus is (what you shoot) or what your needs are in a camera!?

@@BrianCatalano Mainly city scenery at night and some during the day (70% night 30% day) is what I wil be using it for. Also maybe to film birds and other animals. So versatility is good, but dont want to deal with tons of bulk and lenses. I have EOS R5 and its become a pain to haul around. The SX530 is basically a bridge camera, but kind of a little bulky , which is why I was looking for a more compact camera with some of the capabilities. The ZV1 seems to check most boxes except for zoom. What is the actual zoom range on it? Also I was looking and seems that time lapse function requires more work than a Canon that basically does it for you. This is what makes me nervous about getting into the Sony brand, sems like it might be complicated. Cameras like Fuji and Canon are more intuitive as far as menus and useability. I was hoping they would come up with something more substantial for the ZV but all they did was the ZV1 F which is rather useless unless you are vlogging. The ZV1-II doesnt seem to address lack of zoom. Seems like cameras are being created more for vlogging than actual photography. Doesnt sem like anyone is really making any big moves in the compact category. The SSX was a good line but Canon jut stopped after the SX740. They failed to bring anything new. If I cant get the SX740 I might just go with teh ZV1 and as you said, learn a bit and who know maybe I will transition into a Sony camera person.

@@jensz9360 i can definitely understand your struggle... You are looking for a camera that doesn't quite exist yet, so in some way you'll be pleased with either choice and also disappointed with either's limitations. The zv1s range is 24-70 which is for a good standard zoom range but compared to a bridge camera, feels rather limited. I wish I had a clear cut answer for you, but I've loved the zv1, but my needs are a bit different.

@@drake8915 I really appreciate that...and thank you for stopping by to let me know. Helps more than you know!

Hello! Did you reformat your card? First, make sure you take all your files off as reformatting will delete all photos and videos, but once you do, those two new folder will be present on the card.

Hope that makes sense...

Thanks 🙏🙏🙏🙏

Hello... And good question. Well, I believe what is happening is that the discrepancy in base ISOs in the FX3 and zve1 is simply that Sony wanted to standardize the bases in cine ei between the fx6 and fx3, so they could be used in a multi cam set up... And Sony does this by adjusting noise reduction within the software. So it's less a tolerance of the sensor but a modification done by the camera itself. So with the zve1, it has kept their noise reduction processing so that 640 is the cleanest base ISO and not 800. So personally, I'd keep it in 640 for best results since it's just a software application. If you were able to get RAW out of the camera, and add your own noise reduction, then maybe you could do shoot at 800. Does that make sense?

Hello! If I were you, I might look at getting two Sony 35 f1.8s if you're not worried about having a wide lens. It's a sharp, fast lens with a neutral focal length.

@@BrianCatalano Thank you!

That's a reasonable concern, but I have done this and since I record in 4k and Instagram prefers 1080p, cropping in, for me, has never been an issue. That being said, the 3 or 3pro'a vertical shooting capability is amazing and if you can afford it and you are mainly wanting vertical content then it's worth considering. Yet, again the crop on the mini2 (or mini4k) has never looked pixelated when I've done it

Hello! If you can see the camera via POV it was my GoPro. If you can see me holding the camera, as if from an external point of view, it's from my phone, the Google Pixel 8 Pro. Does that make sense?

@@TTS_Fate that's a great question, and I'm sorry but I'm not sure as I don't own a PC to try. I imagine it would but I can't confirm... When you go to the Amazon link does it advertise that it can?

@@BejaeIngate hello and yes... This lens is crazy and I use way, way more than I thought I would have on multiple full frame bodies. As for the stability, I made a huge error, where in active, I accidentally and manually set the focal length to 50mm and not 35mm which made that warpiness. When the lens is set up right, you won't get that effect... I highly recommend picking this lens up!

@@BrianCatalano ahhh okay that makes sense, thanks! Appreciate the reply man! Keep it up : )

@@BejaeIngate thank you!

@@stevearita3267 thanks Steve! It's a thin line between moderately clever and awfully bad dad jokes sometimes...and I usually fall in the latter category!

Hello, I am away from my computer at the moment but as soon as I am able, I will look to see if I can attach some RAWS for you... But as somebody who loves Fuji, I can say the Zf will feel like an easy transition but also a massive step up in my opinion. I don't think you'd be disappointed and Nikons picture controls for jpgs are fantastic, so not as vibey straight out of the box, but simple to customize!

@@BrianCatalano thx so much

@@nandysullivan3005 drive.google.com/drive/folders/1KuBthkkeqvlfWitc9quoC9pvM8LmZ6a9?usp=drive_link Let me know if this works...

@@BrianCatalano thx u the best 🥰🥰🥰

@@nandysullivan3005 you're welcome!

@@stevearita3267 think you may have been the only one that caught that bad joke! Yes, it's worth looking at as a budget option with unique glass. Yet, now I'm envious as I imagine seeing one on a medium format Fuji in Yosemite would be the most ideal scenario... Thanks as always!!

@@kennethj.oriordan2898 hello! Yes, this was my sense that Nikon Zf was built like a tank in some respects but not necessarily better. The Zf is a beautiful piece or design, but at the expense of the ergonomics being really uncomfortable. Also, monitor's screen felt flimsy and would turn off at weird angles and times. In general, the camera felt less dependable--maybe it was my copy. However without question, the reliability with autofocus, still heavily favors Sony along with the video quality/features. I also find the a7c's grip the best of the compact cameras and its performance as a hybrid, is unmatched for me. That all being said, I still fully recommend the Zf and am still considering picking one up as the picture controls make up for a lot of the quirks, but I just don't know if you wouldn't regret swapping to it from the A7Cii. If possible, I would rent it first and see for yourself!

@@BrianCatalano Thank you for the info. Will have to get my hands on one.

@@kennethj.oriordan2898 honestly, if you are in the US, try Lens Rentals... I was reluctant to use them at first, but renting before buying has helped me make smarter purchases (with less regrets)! Best of luck...

@@tomaskiii1017 hello... Just curious, are you asking if you can shoot vertically? If so, yes you can but only the zve10ii has a proper portrait mode where the display turns vertically...

That's a great but difficult question to answer as I think we all have different tolerances for what is acceptable with distortion. I have the Tamron 20-40, and it's now my favorite travel/street photography lens... Yet, if I'm shooting real estate I still always bring my 10-18 and will punch into about 13 or 14mm... And the distortion isn't great but it's also never been a deal breaker. I probably should invest in a better full frame ultra wide, but they are usually so expensive... So if I were you, I'd probably pick up the 11mm as I don't think you'll regret having a wider option on hand

I definitely get all that and all these phones are still so limited by the physical size of their sensors, but it does seem like the software for handling both telephoto lenses and lowlight performance is getting better with each generation, it's still not where I'd like it to be either... Will be really curious to see what the p9pro will be like!

@@BrianCatalano I am very hopeful with Vivo x200 pro, where I am guessing the telephoto lens to be 1/1.4 inch, and hopefully they keep the aperture 1.8, just as Xiaomi 14 ultra.

I'm looking forward to seeing that as well, and probably looking on with envy...

That's a fantastic, one and done, APSC lens, and with the zve1's dynamic stabilization crop, you're looking at something like a 23-100mm around a f4 depth of field for only $700!! Yes, that would be a great option as well. It's not a lens I own as I have decided not to invest too heavily into big and relatively expensive APSC zooms, as I do try to keep my footprint light when traveling. Yet I did just pick up Tamron's full frame 20-40 and that's also a lens I would add to an updated list here.. Thanks for sharing your pick!

@@DannyPaun hello! Great question, but no the XLR h1 does not work on the zve1 because there's no way to safely attach it nor are there any cages that would adapt to it. Yet, as you know, if you're planning on getting the fx30, I definitely recommend picking it up especially if you can get a good price on it.

@@BrianCatalano thanks so much for the quick reply.. I was curious as I only have the ZV-E1 to test the handle on, so just wanted to know if the mic connections it would for tests purposes work..I’ll find out soon though..

That's an interesting take, but yeah... I have been equally surprised by how amazing the zfc is. It's truly one of my favorite cameras!

Hello, I appreciate you taking the time to comment, and I wish I got paid to make this video! Just curious though, who do you think would have paid me, Sony or Nikon? I feel like I was more favorable to Nikon throughout this review. Yet, I'm also not sure if you watched the whole video (or own these cameras yourself), but both brands have their strengths and weaknesses like everything in life. I own and love cameras from both brands. I also tend to not lean into tribalistic feelings about anything, especially as superficial as cameras. I love Fuji cameras too and Canon's new r5ii looks amazing! Yet for now I'm sticking with Nikon and Sony only because I don't get paid by anybody and I have to buy my own glass, so it's easier to keep to just two ecosystems. Either way, thanks for sharing your feelings, and I hope you find what you are looking for in a camera or camera review in the future. Best of luck!

@@user-mu7og9tf7m I really appreciate that... Thank you so much!
