What's your favorite part about the Sony ZV-1? Let me know!
IQ and AF are awesome, I got this as a back up for my XT3/4 cameras
Agreed! I’m really amazed at the quality for the price and size
Stabilization sistem
thank you!!!
ND filter
airplane mode on saves a lot of battery too
Your way of laying out the menus is so helpful !
Nice explanation.
I didn't know the temperature danger is in the overheating of the battery. I thought the camera itself gets hot(and potentially damaging itself), not the battery.
My solution, as I'm always filming on the office/studio and in the car, get a continuous power supply connected to a power socket in your wall and you're all set.
Thanks so much for explaining this feature so clearly
Nice content! Thanks for sharing these great ideas with us! Really helpful info in the endless search for ideas to avoid ZV1's overheating issues. Keep it up! 💪
ahhhhh so helpful!! recorded my first video with this camera and the battery died SOOOO quickly. Thank you for the suggestion!
Thank you so much! I was thinking getting this one or the zv - e10. But my only concern was overheating. Anyways this was very helpful. Thank you
Nice.. Wish it was usb c tho. In the process of upgrading my camera's.. Glad to know this feature because I record a lot in 4k for extended periods..
Thank you for the clear explanations.
Very well explained. Thx
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you. I just recorded around an hour of 4k 30fps. 1:21 set to high temp. Room temperature 65 F. Scandisc 256gb 170 mb/s 3,10. with a fully charged battery and usb power. The camera battery is now down by half.
like your style bro, thanks for the tips
Very useful video. Thanks!
Very helpful! Thank you.
Thanks for this video!
Does the ZV-1 Still overheat in room temperature setting with the USB power?
This was very helpful......Thank you!
No problem! thanks for watching!
Awesome! Thanks man 👍👍👍
I'm looking for tripod options to place on the floor and go up to eye sight height for the Sony ZV-1. Do you have a video recommending the best ones and why? Thanks again for sharing.
Hey nice video shay , very informative video I do have two questions when using the external battery pack setting connect using the multi connect on ZV-1 to attach to power the camera just leave the battery in like you mentioned 2 nd question does the VZ - Zoom more? because I use it concerts camera is small enough to get into venues but hard to zoom closer...on stages. I use it also as a B roll on a Cooking show I am producing It has an excellent video. Thanks... You Rock Phil NYRockstv
Just bought this and I’m so happy that I don’t have to spend anymore. Thanks for sharing. ☺️
very helpful video sir...it solved my problem with zv e10
The video content is so excellent, congratulations
Thanks so, man
Great video 🔥
Thank you so much for share a bout sony zx1 better battery life.
Hi, great video, but I have a question: if we set USB Power Supply on "ON", does that mean the ZV1 will keep on recording wile "charging", for example in a vlogging situation? I mean does having a power bank plugged into the camera actually improve and extend the recording time of the ZV1 while shooting a vlog? I am asking this because I already own a 23800 mAh Power Bank, and I am planning to buy a ZV1, but I'm reading negative reviews on the camera's battery life of people saying it's really short and when shooting at 4K it lasts just about 15 to 20 minutes
Very informative thanks!!
Glad it was helpful!
thank you!! you were really helpful!
Glad I could help!
Thank you , this was very helpful!
Glad it was helpful!
Hi!
Thanks for the vídeo and congratulations for the channel!
I also watched in a spanish yt channel that charger or powerbank has to be 3 amperes for being able to charge at the consumption of this camera.
As you might now, because the camera only comes with cable and dime of the usb chargers are less than 3A, I thought even with that usb charging option on, you’re going to extend a little the camera life but not unlimited unless 3A powerbank o charger.
Greetings from Madrid, Spain!
Needed this💯
New subscriber...I just ordered my ZV1 and the power battery bank is 👏🏼👍👏🏼.
Enjoy it! Such an amazing camera
can you record video while using the power battery bank? And hoe many hours do you get so?
hey that was awesome! can i charge de camera directly to the wall? thanks
Thank you so much💎
Thank you, and THANK YOU! Unfortunately I'm learning about this after I set my tripod up and attempted to record a one time presentation my wife and I did to honor my dad. I also now know why my camera wasn't charging using usb.
Thank you for this , very well explained 👍🏻
No problem! Thank you for watching!
in the list it says shoot images not record video while having the Anker PowerCore connected. So you can record videos or just shoot photos?
is there any battery charger for sony zv-1? In case that I want to have an extra battery ready to go.
Thanks brother
The power bank that you linked in the description is awesome! I use it myself.
Thank You Men
Do you have to use a dummy battery when using USB power? If not, then what is the advantage of using one like the DK-X1?
thank you - I am 60 year old female and I just brought this camera - need all the help I can get :)
2:03 For better understanding 104 °F (US) = 40 °C (Europe). In sunlighted place the black colored camera can be heated to 50-65 °C (122-149°F). Keep that in mind! Always find a shadowy place or try to cover your ZV-1 vith anything you've got (a piece of cartboard, a used T-shirt whatever.)
I used a power bank for usb power supply & after 20 minutes it said exhausted but my power bank wasn't dead so I popped in a new battery while the other charged then after 3 minutes "battery exhausted" on an FULL room temperature battery + power bank. Any idea what went wrong? I'd like to purchase your suggested battery pack but if I'll have the same issue I rather not.
I also considered a dummy battery but because I use a tripod while vlogging, the door doesn't have room to hang open! lol this camera is great but even my rx 100 3 has a longer battery life than my new Sony zv1. I'm super conflicted! Also thank you for the helpful video and links 🔥
get the cage setup. gives you more mounting holes and lets you leave battery door open.
Thank you!
Thanks a lot !!!
I record in 1080P and the battery is so weak, its annoying. I use a powerbank all the time but the thing is even when i plug in a full powerbank it says sometimes weak battery and shut itself off. That was exactly the problem you mentioned in the video. It tried to charge the internal battery when a power bank is plugged in and thats why it often shut itself off even when i plugged in a power bank when the internal battery was low. I never knew that there is an option to directly power the ZV-1 from a power bank, that would be amazing because i use the camera only on a tripod at home, so i dont really care about a powerbank plugged in or not. I think this helped me alot because i already searched for spare batteries and a battery charger but the original sony batteries are super expensive and the charger as well. Shame that there was no charger included. I already figured out that the nitecore USN2 charger is the best option for the price because its a quality charger that also has the balancer port unlike cheap chargers.
While recording if battery going down and if I put power bank does it will work or off the camera please let me know. Thank you
So when we have to do an 3-4 hours long stream or a video, do you just recommend having the power bank plugged in? Kinda confused.
You can get a plug in battery for streaming if the ZV1 has one out yet. I use a plug in battery for my A6300 for streams. You need an outlet though otherwise a power bank is your best bet
I have 2 batteries, and let's say one died at my shoot, should I use the pack to charge the dead battery and use the second one or use the pack while using the camera?
Hi! With an ac wall charger (2.0A) how long can the battery last recording in 4k?
THANK YOUUU
awesome video
I have question I turned my usb power on on my Sony zv1 I purchased the smoke power bank that you linked but when I plug it in my camera still does not run off usb power bank my battery still goes dead and say battery exhausted does my internal battery have to be fully charged for it to work can you help please ??
I wonder if u have a small fan blowing air at camera while u record how long will it last
HEY man quick question i kno im late lol but how long can i record with the 10000 power bank ?!
I was seeing can you keep your battery in the Sony zv1 why u charger it ?
Gonna try this out. Thank you sir
so how long can you record with the 10,000 external battery at 4k? I guess around 4hrs?
Hi can i ask? I have sony zv1 too then i set it to 4k and 30 then when i start recording it say that i cannot record.what will i do?
Is there a better option than this camera? I just got it love it but I'm not a fan of the battery life. The video helps with the temp but i'm not sure if I should return and find a different option.
It really depends on what you are looking for. If you need longer battery life and are okay with something a little more bulky the Sony Alpha 6400 is a great choice.
@@Shayway Thank you for your response! I will check out the sony alpha 6400 do you have a video on that camera?
@@elenitasjourney I wish! Check out this video by Potato Jet, he is a very well known Photography Tech CZcamsr: czcams.com/video/dOg6Uh3LwGw/video.html
So with the power bank, you’re saying I can record WHILE it’s charging with the USB power bank in?
Would it be ok, to run this straight from the wall charger?
whilst the bank is connected how long is recording time
What is the 3rd party power source ?
Does the Camera battery have to be at full charge mine just died trying to do this
The power cord to my ZV 1 is causing a buzzing sound during playback. I tried plugging it into different outlets and still gets a buzz. There is no buzzing without the cord. The sound is nice and clear. Would a battery pack solve this? I want to do interviews with veterans and cant have any buzzing in the audio. I need enough power for about an hour and a half and I really don't want to have to stop the interview to change batteries.
If I don't attempt to record internally, but use this as web cam via HDMI and a capture card, can I get continuous streaming for hours on end?
Hey Charles! Definitely! I used this in a twitch stream with no issues!
not true. mine turns off after 15 minutes "battery exhausted" is what it will say
How long do you think this could record in 1080p?
40 minutes
Does anyone know best power pack for the Sony ZV1?
Hello Bro , good job , what is best for shooting a videos at home studio like you , sony zv1 or canon m50 for ( 4k and fhd ) ?
Hands down would recommend the ZV-1 for video! It's seriously one of my favorite cameras I've ever owned.
can it be any power bank?
Thank you! It shut off in the middle of a diy video 😱 lol I’m fine. I’m fine. 😂😂
Great video! Very informative thank you. So essentially you can use any power bank to charge the Sony Zv? I currently have a power bank for my iPhone, so idk if it’s worth buying another for the camera if I can use it for the camera too.
Definitely! I’m using the same one for my phone as well
Good video. Oooooooooooh Yeah!
Thank you!
yo bro i got a 30000 mah power bank and im still only getting like 12 mins with 4k . any suggestions?
Does anyone know why my ZV1 Says battery exhausted even when its connected to a battery bank? Thank you
Sounds like it's not charging.
If the power bank output isn't high enough...it will drain faster than it charges. Get you one that will give more output. Or you can always get a dummy battery and plug it up.
Your USB cable could be bad. Just a thought. Plug it into another device to ensure its powering correctly. Check the amperage on the charging block or USB ports.
i wish it went longer than ten minutes mine shut down 8 minutes
let me get this straight....can't record videos while using usb powerbank?
Does the battery not charge while the camera is on?
I was seeing how to go to your video when u record them ? I’m confused 🤦🏽♂️
I have USB power supply "on" and the USB cable plugged into a USB port in my desktop computer. It shows the plugged in/charging symbol next to the battery level meter icon too. But I keep running into "battery exhausted" issues even when my camera is plugged into the USB of my computer. That seems to indicate that the electrical draw from the ZV-1 exceeds the power supplied by the USB port of my computer (but I've tested this with all my USB ports), so after a few hours of webcamming, the camera will have no more battery life. I've lost the camera multiple times during Zoom calls. Any way to fix this?
I need the USB to be connected to my computer (not a wall charger that would provide higher electrical current) because I need to use the Sony Live Imaging Edge software that requires the USB to computer connection.
Hmm possibly try a powered USB hub? That way it has AC powering the ports while they are plugged into the computer. I searched for “powered usb hub” on Amazon and saw a few options.
I don’t know for a fact this would work, but this is what I would personally try first. Best of luck!
@@Shayway it is powered, which is why it shows the charging icon and extends the battery life to multiple hours, instead of just 1. But it still drains the battery slowly.
@@peTeMelster I understand, my assumption is a powered USB hub would provide more amperage than a standard USB port on computer.
@@Shayway got it! I will try that, thanks.
You can also use a dummy battery with a USB connector... get the velcro straps for the battery for your vlogg setup. This makes it portable. Or even use the normal battery. Make sure you get a bank that gives out enough Amps or it will just drain slower. It needs to charge faster than it drains. A cheap power bank won't work and a huge one will make you miss out on portability.
I have one & Why do the Sony zv 1 go die so fast
How to transfer files from sony zv 1 to laptop?
im getting nly 25 fps on 4k..not able to find 30fps option
Why do you think buddy
Me too
So zv1, g7x mk 3, or pocket 2?
I'm LOVING the ZV-1. Hands down would recommend.
@@Shayway thank you decisions are hard
My dbrand screen protectors came today and my 12 pro max comes on Wednesday so excited
Nice! Such a good phone :)
Question? Can i record while the battery pack is plugged into the camera?
Yes you can, I use one 90% of the time!
@@Shayway can you record on the memory card though? I mean no streaming. And hoe many hours do you get with the Anker PowerCore Select?
I'm getting about an hour 4K recording, with my ZV1.
Nice what are u doing to get that? Most I get is 45mins
@@burninbitesdownunder well had the zv1 for quite a few months now, but seeing a decrease in the run time due to the batteries being used regularly
@@JustinLetandre bummer
@@burninbitesdownunder only option to get good battery life again is buy actual Sony batteries
@@JustinLetandre or plug it in? Where do u get Sony batteries?
I did not see the same behavior on my two cameras they can easily record for like 50 minutes without shutting down in 4K. I’m not sure what’s going on in your end. I was using a power bank to power the cameras
Usb power❤❤❤
My camera records 5 minutes!!! I just buy it. I don't know how to fix it?
Did u find out what is the problem? I bought this camera a week ago and i realized that i didn t use the camera for 3 days and the battery from full charged went after three days no use to almost empty...
Oo
I don’t have the camera but still appreciate the video! These always get better and better!
Thanks dude! I appreciate you watching!
U missed talking about dummy battery?
Why does my camera record 5 minutes?
Perhaps your storage card is full at 5 minutes?
Did you watch this video at all it’s because your camera is getting hot you must follow the instructions in this video to set it to high temp and you can record as long as you want basically he shows how to do this in this video
So not ideal for over an hours footage guaranteed 😕
I just got this camera and my battery last like 5 minutes so I I bummed. This is my last hope before I return it
And why does it keep overheating? Do I have a dud?
35mins great? old galaxy s10 phone does 12 hours in 4k
I see your point. I just don’t get it. Why camera companies don’t make a revolutionary battery life for cameras!!
