  • We got the Sony zv1 in for testing. This is marketed for vloggers as the best vlogging camera of 2020. I've been pretty vocal about it not being wide enough at 24mm, especially with the digital stabilization crop. But was I wrong? What if we put it on a long tripod? How does it compare with the Gopro 8?
    Let's test out some of the features like autofocus, stabilization, 480p and 960p slow mo! How bad is the crop? Let's find out!
    Thanks Camera Canada for the loaner! www.cameracanada.com Let's all go to Camera Canada! :)

    Thanks Camera Canada for the loaner! www.cameracanada.com Let's all go to Camera Canada! Without them, Sony may never have reluctantly lent me a copy lol. It's actually a really fun camera, that 480p slow mo is hilarious! Sorry for the user error on the Gopro at -1 EV at dusk lol. I'll test it again in the next vid vs the Idolcam and Olympus EM1 III with some pretty shocking results.

  • @CheapCharlieChronicles
    @CheapCharlieChronicles Před 4 lety +26

    I have a new theory about vlogging. If you want to film the background just film it, behind the camera and filming the scenes. One can do narration and commentary in these situations behind the camera too. When you actually want to "Vlog" with your face in the scene, I think it's interesting to have a close up shot like they do in cinema where your face fills most of the screen. A 35 mm lens (full frame equivalent) will accomplish this excellentlly. There was a guy who filmed a ton of stuff in Japan over years, basically day to day life back in the 1990s and 80s with the camcorder. 90% of the video would be him filming his surroundings but every once in awhile he would turn the camera around and point it at his face where he would say something (the earliest known vlogger in history). He is on CZcams where he has been posting all these videos, unfortunately I forgot his name. That is why I think there are many different styles of vlogging.

    • @codyjwoods
      @codyjwoods Před 3 lety

      The walk and talk shot is incredibly boring and overused today. Not only is it more aesthetically pleasing to cut to the b-roll with narration it’s also easier to think of better narration in post this way. The only person I want to see walk and talk are Casey Niestat or Camera Conspiracies.

    • @CheapCharlieChronicles
      @CheapCharlieChronicles Před 3 lety +2

      @@codyjwoods agree but many creators like the walk and talk format because it’s easy and doesn’t require much thought, skill or attention to the camera when using something like an action camera. There are many travel vloggers who are quite successful with this format and another plus side is their videos require little to no editing. I’m thinking of guys like Harald Baldr, Bald and Bankrupt, Volpe, Kurt Caz and others. If you look on social blade this sort of vlogging is very successful.

    One of your funniest videos in a while. Several LOL moments.
    Also Sony should send you all of their cameras. I had basically written this off based on other reviews from Tony and Chelsea, Jared and Ted Forbes.
    to see you using it as a proper vlogging camera the way a vlogger really would and not just pretending to be a vlogger and the additional side-by-side comparison with the GoPro which does seem like it is the current vlogging champion. The video quality from the Sony just blows the GoPro out of the water.
    Considering I'm already well in the Sony ecosystem with my a73 this may have given me a reason to look at a new camera again.
    Thanks Casey!
    P.S. did you catch that where Tony told the world that he watches your videos? In their 1 million subscribers video, he clearly stated he does not watch any other photography channels however he does watch "comedy!". If that wasn't an Easter egg acknowledgement of your greatness I don't know what would be. Keep it up Casey. Soon all the camera companies will be begging you to help them design the perfect cameras.

    Honestly out of every video you have made (and I have watched just about all of them) this video is the best looking quality (for focus, color, stabilization and all around) out of all of them. I think the ZV-1 may be it... I had just ordered a G-85 (I still have a G7 and GH5) and had not opened it yet to use as a light quick camera but after seeing this quality I am returning the G-85 and ordered a ZV-1... I don't care about the not so wide angle when I can just put it on a longer tripod or stick and solve that problem... Good job.

    • @cameraconspiracies

    I think the product showcase feature will only activate on objects that are near the centre of the frame, which is why sometimes the flowers didn't grab focus as they were too far left. I guess it's the same for the tripod, it went outside the centre so it ignored it.
