Record in 4k and export in 1080p if you're recording.

@@DianaGladney tried but it lags in editing. Anyways thanks for your responsibile reply.

@@TechCraze Ah! Then, you’ll want to use a proxy workflow. This will allow you to record in 4k, edit in 720p, export in 1080p to do all you want to achieve without the hassle of editing with the larger 4k files, since it’s a problem for your computer. Imagine Proxy files being the same exact file size as a 720p video file would be and that’s what you use to edit with. Then, when you’re done, you’ll switch to the full size video editing file, being the 4k video file. So, that way you get the best of both worlds. This sounds like it might be some tedious process but it takes seconds because your computer is doing the heavy lifting. Here’s the video I did on how to do that: czcams.com/video/_snwHFGMYYM/video.htmlsi=iFdSU-i0OcIZ8dUa

@AprilClayton Aww, thank you so much April! That's awesome to hear, I'm glad they're standing out and doing what's hoped for!

@josephjonzen9394 Nice! Glad you're still receiving value from this video!

Ah, but that's the beauty of the Dynamic Active stabe, it's the best of both worlds AND you still get access to Catalyst Browse.

@@DianaGladney I didnt know you can use Dynamic active + Catalyst browse together :O ?

@lukianproductions Would this work to cool the camera, yes. Would this work specifically on the a6400 or a6600, not without some quirks. Those cameras have a flip up screen mechanism that hinges right in the middle of the back of the camera. So, it's not a clear and open space as with fully articulating flip screens, like on the Sony ZV-E1. So, you could tilt the hinge downward to lay flat, but you won't see your screen anymore. If you're using a live stream setup, that won't matter because the camera image will be visible on a much larger monitor. That's why I said yes you could use it, but not without that quirk because of the way the screen is. AliExpress has some camera fans that are half the size of the Ulanzi fans and would work with the screen fully flipped up on the a6400. I only recently got rid my a6400, but ran it extensively for hours on end non-stop in 4k without any overheating. Do you have your high heat setting enabled on your camera?

@@brotherDougE1956 You’re very welcome! Glad this video was helpful!

@timbrowntown Tim I really appreciate you taking the time and effort to use my affiliate link for your purchase, that means a lot, truly! Glad to know I'm not the only one that does that lol Yeah, it's nice that all the sub-$2k Sony cameras are released and there are quite a few options on the market to choose from. The cool thing is the Sony a6700 is incredibly similar to the ZV-E1, so there are minimal differences, and you get to keep using all your existing lenses. If you're coming from the ZV-E10 Mark 1, you're still making a massive upgrade in a ton of areas to be plenty satisfied. It's a really great camera, hope you're enjoying it!

@@DianaGladney I am still going through settings! I'd like to see how you set up your custom buttons and my menu in your zv-e1. Maybe a future video on your go to settings? I know those videos are time consuming though but might be a good idea.

@SharrodVisuals It definitely does being that close in price if the a6700 has more of the features you want. The a6700 is a solid camera!

@DWebbTheOldHead Yeah, definitely! If you already have the a6700, there's little else the ZV-E10 Mark II could add that you don't have. The most top of mind feature being product showcase mode some would like to have, but there's a simple fix for that, already did a video on that with the a6700 a bit ago. Glad you enjoyed the video!

@capitalblooper9517 Nice!

@@andre785 The max capacity, you’d have to check the camera manual online. The recommended capacity, at least 64GB or larger as shared in the video so it doesn’t break up your files. Any file size beyond that is preference. However, more than 512GB isn’t really that logical on this camera because you can record a ton with 256GB cards. That’s a TON of footage, even in 4k, to have on just one card past 256GB. 256GB is around 5 hours of 4k which is a lot, even more in 1080p at the highest bitrates.

Clear Image Zoom works in all recording modes I've used on the most recently Sony cameras.

@andre785 Yeah, you can use the larger adapter that usually comes with the Micro SD cards. As long as the speeds with adapter meet the specs for video, you're good to go.

@emansworldofgeek You're very welcome! Yeah, a monopod at a Comicon type event and a lens with OSS will be plenty to meet your needs for what you're trying to do. As long as you're not on some weird slant or something like a hill where a good tripod will be ideal, a monopod would be perfect because it's a small footprint, but still plenty sturdy for your camera, lens, audio setup, and even a small led light if you needed on for in person man on the street type setup if you did interviews at the Comicon. Even the ZV-E1 is super light and I've done the same thing, so the ZV-E10 II would be the same kind of experience.

@shawnfoodfever I do too. The only thing I can think is it's a price based feature that has to be over that $2k threshold. When the A7S 4 and A75 come out, they'll likely have that stuff. Yeah, still a great upgrade over the Mark 1, but unfortunate though. It would have been an easy yes for a lot of folks.

@SharrodVisuals Thank you! For this one, I used my Rode SmartLav+ lapel mic, TRRS to TRS adapter to connect it to the DJI Wireless Microphone. Can't recall if this is before the second version came out or not. So, it'd be one of those DJI wireless kits.

Yep

@@DianaGladney coool

Thanks for letting me know! They've since updated the model. This is the updated version here: diana.link/batterybank When it comes to reliable gear, the biggest thing is making sure you're using a reliable brand YOU trust. I only recommend the stuff I've used for a long time and personally trust, but that doesn't mean they're never going to have one that's defective. It's the same risks with anything we buy, so same rules here. I still use my Charmast charger regularly and it's working great, so it's something that's lasted for years for me at this point. So, I can't guarantee anything. You have to choose what you feel is best for you and that you trust. If you're hesitant about the Charmast brand, go with a tried and true like Anker or similar larger electronics brand and something you can find locally from an electronics store and get a warranty.

Sure thing! Glad you enjoyed the video. As far as the LUT you pointed out at that timestamp, that's something Jason Vong has on his camera. Whether he made it or purchased it, I don't know. You'll have to ask him.

Different strokes for different folks. For use with the original Rodecaster it offers much better gain staging abilities without having to crank up the lever leaving you no room to do anything else.

Thank you so much! Much appreciated!

IBIS? :)

​@@DigiDriftZone Sony did an update to the Active Stabilizer. IBIS would be nice, but it's not necessary in my opinion. A GoPro also works only with a digital stabilization but it's super smooth and just perfect for vlogging and movements.

@@Chris_P.eterson Active Stabe has a massive crop, it also requires you to crank up the shutter to work, so forget about appropriate shutter speed and natural motion blur for anything not on a tripod.

@Chris_P.eterson Yeah, I hear you, but even with the updated digital stabe, it's still not a big win win though. IF it were at Go Pro levels of stabe, it'd be an easy open and close case. Right now, there's only so much info when it comes to stabe tests vs showing how it performs in real life scenarios on the day to day. Digital can work great, but Sony lacks OSS lenses to better help offset the crops, etc. Is it doable, 100%. Will it be ideal, to be determined. That's also going off of what my personal experience has been testing and using a ton of Sony cameras for extended periods of time, the Sony ZV-E1 and a6700 performance of Dynamic Active + Stabe + OSS and Active Stabe + OSS lenses and it still having a significant crop and some shakes that may need smoothening in Catalyst Browse. This camera will sell regardless of all that lol but I still think the camera could have benefited greatly with at least the addition of IBIS and Dynamic Active stabe for vloggers to have more options. The real life frustration of those noticeable shakes in a clip where you're having a ball in a vlog and it is starting to have that dizzying effect, that's where my concern is coming from, that real life application. Once I try it and test it for myself, then we'll see how it holds up for real. It's still a great camera regardless, but I want to see how the real life experience is before I give my final say so on it.

@@DianaGladney Your explanation is definitely easy to understand and plausible. I agree with you that Sony and almost all other camera manufacturers cannot manage to install functioning stabilizers. This is simply unacceptable in 2024. I also like to compromise with a certain crop. I would like to be able to use an apsc or full frame camera without a gimbal and still take smooth shots. Hope that will happen one day.

@decem_unosquattro9538 I hear you, but I wouldn't say it's dead in the water. It's easy to look at the better options on the market and it's an instant yes for a lot of folks. The overseas pricing structure is something I'm sure they take into consideration and for certain markets the better buy financially is easily the Sony a6700. I don't think that'll be true for everyone though, like here in the U.S. the price difference is much greater and it's a $400 difference; tag on an extra $100 for taxes and that's $500, which is a lot more. For someone brand new, that's their lights, audio, and accessories or if they have all that a good lens or two depending on what they get. Plus, there's something to be said for preference. Even though it may be only an extra $50 now, that price will still be worth it for some that really want the ZV-E10 II body style and creator features in the body style. You're not the first Aussie in the community I've chatted with about the prices or currency exchange, so you're not alone with that pricing frustration. Hopefully some camera stores or Sony kicks in some rebates or something to help offset that difference to make it more worth it for those that may want to see a steeper price difference. I can empathize with where you're coming from though.

@@DianaGladney Huh? What you pay an extra $100 for that camera? What a scam that is! Do you pay that on gasoline?

@natureredux1957 Yeah, some of those features I thought would become universal in all the new bodies, but guess it's a price cap on it for now.

You're very welcome! Thanks for sharing your thoughts! 💯

Well, you make some great points in sharing your needs for what you want and how you use your camera. It seems you have a pretty solid use case for the a6700 over the ZV-E10 Mark 2. The video performance will be identical, minus the small bits like the product showcase mode or zoom rocker, which don't sound like a want in your case. So, there's two schools of thought on this being save a little and get the ZV-E10 Mark II IF it's going to be for more dominant video uses. The second school of thought is just getting another a6700 and don't even look at the ZV-E10 Mark 2 BECAUSE you can setup the cameras identically, know you have access to another EVF if and when you need it and know you'll get identical performance and have the IBIS like you want. Sometimes the best option is the thing that isn't the most budget-friendly, but what is instead the most efficient option. Speaking from personal experience, that's why once I got the ZV-E10 Mark 1, I dropped the a6600 as the second camera. When you're actively creating, not having to worry about mentally switching modes based on how you create, where certain features are located, and more. If you already know the Sony a6700 works best for you and you're happy with it, getting a second one will only amplify and double that, plus be extremely efficient in your workflow. Now, the final question you have to ask yourself, are the differences you mentioned worth making the investment up or are they things that would not impact you creatively for how you intend to use the camera. For me, I could use the ZV-E10 II just fine as a second video camera to my ZV-E1, but I know me and that I'd get annoyed wanting certain features on that second angle and not having it. So, for me personally, the efficiency of a second ZV-E1 makes more sense than the monetary savings to know I could pick up either camera and have the exact same experience. Could I get by with the ZV-E10 II just fine, definitely, but not without being frustrated or finding minor workarounds and adding on a bit more time on the backend to make concessions for those workarounds. In the moment it's not a big deal, but it's a time loss over time. So for me, I value the efficiency more than the savings in that perspective. You just have to know yourself, what frustrates you when you're creating, and what makes (or would make) your life easy when you're creating. Then, make your decision based on what you care about and what you need or want the most, spec sheets won't confer those kinds of differences. Hopefully this helps you make the decision that's right for YOU to get you what you want.

@contigo4006 Well, if you're coming from being a Mark 1 owner and want to stay with the ZV camera lineup, the updates will feel more significant than that. Touch screen, 10-bit 4k video, 4k 30p USB C live streaming, Z battery, wifi, and faster USB C port (as you mentioned), and better digital stabe performance in Active. Is is the best stabe ever, no. Is it a drastic improvement from the Mark 1 experience, absolutely. So, if video is your only concern, it'd make a difference when creating. Personally, I'd still go ZV-E1 because nothings held back in the camera, it's the full creator package for me.

@@DianaGladney zv e10 with lens costs just 680$ here in India. I would still suggest mark 1 for beginners. it's really much affordable option. just buy lens for extra money

@@EricAroundTheWorld389 Yeah, the only thing I can think of is creating a gap in the line up to have distinction of what makes sense to get depending on your needs.

@@Extraedit Yep! There’s a ton in the a6700 very similar to the new features in the ZV-E1.

@@JustCallMeOlu lol I feel you, I really do. It can be done, just within certain parameters. Active Stabe means you’d need a wide lens like the 10-20mm or 10-18mm lens. If you get the 10-18mm F4 lens it has OSS and that will work. None of the videos I saw today show that but it won’t be long before those videos pop up.
