Yes, true. Many of the so called techtubers with millions of subscribers keep bashing Xperia 1 III. I wonder what kind of techtubers they are. They only know Samsung and iPhone. SamsungSaf and Apple Browny
Your take on Xperia 1 III is just spot on. Sad that the typical mobile phone reviewers have been brainwashed by Samsung's overly processed photos, having no idea how an actual realistic photo is supposed to look like. You're an alpha shooter, and it shows in your balanced review of the Xperia phone. Keep up the good work.
Thank you! Haha yeah I think Samsung is good at marketing too. Specs on sheet is appealing but the display and color science is probably one of the worst I’ve seen. 🙇🏻♂️🤘🏼
This video, for real. Those pictures with the Xperia 1 iii, they are insane. Like others also say, the images aren't so overprocessed like normal phone cameras but just clean and natural. Really great!
Finally a reviewer that knows how to use the xperia 1iii camera. I hate the reviewers that only use the stock app like the photo pro don't exist lol. I hope Sony gets rid of the stock app camera
That won't be smart honestly and more people will complain, even professional cameras has auto mode, and it'll be better if having some of the both sides
@@blackoctopus5182 photo pro has auto mode, it makes no sense to use a downgrade version app...they should add the selfie and couple of features...the stock app is giving them bad name....
@@The-Heart-Will-Testify They better also improve on HDR. That selfie-camera is a turd-show, even if it's compared with selfie-camera's from 5(!!!!) years ago. Clearly all the focus went to the rear and zero focus went to the front-facing camera.
Sony Phones are really for Enthusiasts and Artists. That's why Tech CZcamsrs don't understand Sony phones' full potential, with their superficial knowledge. Sony is the only Hardware company, who is also the Creator/Producer of artistic content(Sony pictures for Movies, Sony Music Entertainment for Music, Sony Interactive entertainment for Video Games) They understand artists like no other tech company. That's why those reviewers think that an oversaturated picture is better than a neutral picture, or that Bass-Boosted speakers are superior to balanced speakers.
This is exactly why I ordered one. Even though the MKBHD review was mediocre at best, it completely missed the point of the phone. It's all about creative control, I don't want to have the phone guess what I want out of a picture of video, I want to be the one controlling how it comes out from the moment that is being framed on the screen. Having full manual exposure controls, a dedicated shutter button with focus half press and expandable storage make this basically a camera that can make phone calls and install apps, I really dig it.
How hard would it be to make a full guide? There aren't all that many options even in manual mode. I went outside today and used full manual on my Xperia 1 III for the first time and it wasn't rocket surgery. I would like to learn more, however - but it really isn't all that complex. This isn't building a MAME cabinet using an OLED monitor with G-Sync and having to set up each game in GroovyMame or something like that. It's just a camera with some options.
@@blurry_eyes No one's denying that this phone gives you control. HOWEVER, you're missing the point here. With this fantastic camera hardware, why doesn't the phone have a usable auto mode? The auto mode photos that this phone produces are not on par with the competition. There are situations when you don't have time to tune manually and want a quick snapshot with ensured decent quality. This phone isn't capable of that and it is a big minus. You have to be a hardcore fanboy not to see this as a detriment.
everything you made is professional , from choosing the scenes , taking the shots , making this video , all of these are on a professional level , well done bro . this phone's camera in usuall shots are on the same level of other rivals from Xiaomi , Samsung and Apple but not better than these , but in moving shots , it is in a league of its own , no other phone can even come close , other camera reviews don't focus on this point , which is where the phone really shines .
@@SkylineLofe Well, they did, the dynamic range is very mediocre. It is far worse than the competition. Wonder how it fares against a mid-range modern smartphone. It just performs too poorly. All those blown highlights are just ridicilous. It's nice if it's on purpose, but it wasn't.
I love how you are one of the very few youtubers that actually use the full potential of this masterpiece, and not wining about how "complicated" it is
not a single time i have been disappointed by your videos...... i guess its the most quality content on youtube.. every second of your videos are worth it...
After having and using the SONY Xperia 1 mark ii for almost a year now I can say that the camera system is as good as any other. It's just different. And in my opinion that is it's strong point. That it's not like using an iphone. It is a lot more like using an actual camera. Thus there is a learning curve, and you need to be willing to figure it out. But it sure is fun and allows for more creativity. If what you want are very saturated pictures and you want the phone to do all the work for you then I would say that the Xperia is not for you. Better to stick with an iphone or Galaxy. But if you want a much more natural, and accurate camera like experience where pictures look more like what your eye actually sees (I personally really dislike the way the Galaxy tries to make night shots look like daylight. Gives it an artificial look) that allows for more creativity and actually makes you want to go outside and take pictures......then the Xperia just might be for you. I would always use the comparison between an automatic luxuary sedan vs a manual sports car. They are totally different experiences. An iphone or Galaxy are like automatic sedans. They are comfortable, convenient, and will do most of what you need to be done without requiring too much from you. The Xperia is a lot more like a manual sports car. It's more tricky to drive and you have to learn how to drive it by comparison. But it's also a lot more fun, with a closer to reality feel, and you can push it waaay more.
You described exactly what I also think about photography with smartphones! 👍 I mostly use my camera in the M-mode coz that's the way I can influence the final style of the picture 😉 And because I will do it also with a phone I am waiting for the 1 III in Germany 👍 with the fear it will be a long waiting-time till September 😐🤨
Hey, Maybe i will buy the Mark ii in the next days, but im not sure if it is maybe tot late, cause thé phone is almost one year old. What is your opinion?
This is exactly the kind of video I'm looking for! You've clearly shown the capabilities of what an Xperia could do when it comes to photography. Awesome video, great shots taken too!
To my knowledge, you are one few who utilised/used Xperia 1 iii as it meant to. Xperia 1 iii is a ver capable smartphone. Your shots were pretty good. You earned my sub 👍🏻
This was so good man. You actually used the phone solely like an actual camera which is the heart of Sony as their phones usually don’t compete in auto and HDR modes like other phones. But using it like this you see the true power and quality of the images this phone is capable of producing especially the fact that you can do long exposures from every lens and focal length. Dope.
@@blackdynamite9940 completely. Samsung fanboy. "The Samsung looks more colourful" he'll say, despite NONE of those colours being anywhere near accurate. "The S21 Ultra has better HDR" he'll say, despite the scene looking flat and dull, with no depth or interest. *Sighs*
God the colors and structure in the photos... I'm so excited for my Xperia 5 III. Though I'm not a pro photographer, I'm definitely wanting to learn how to use the app and phone to it's full potential. These photos are soooo beautiful!
Thank you Ann! Haha that’s exciting! It’s definitely a great phone to start your photography journey with. I wish I had this phone when I started out. Hope you can learn a little from my videos 😇🥳
Amazing video man! I am floored by how good the camera on this phone is. The dynamic range in low light is insane and the pictures come out beautifully.
Man, It looks so much fun to shot with that phone. Love the UI, all big and accessible, great to change settings on the fly. Amazing job, that the first time I watched your content and subbed right away, amazing quality, keep up with the good work and again thank you for the video.
Hi Thiago, thank you very much for your kind words! It’s such a fun phone to shoot with. Most fun I had on a smartphone! I’m still new to making content here but I am learning and enjoying the process so I hope to keep entertaining you in the future🙇🏻♂️
glad to see that Xperias are one of the last phones that stand out in the world of computational photography. the photos taken are so natural that can blow the rest to the water. but it is sad to see that the vast majority of phone users these days prefer the aggressive HDR or saturated photos or some ridiculous-low quality super zoom shots to Sony's style
man the pictures taken at location 2 using promode look like they are straight up from a DSLR ! You definitely have talent and skills, using this phone as it was intended to make the best of it and show its true potential :)
Whelp I'm sold man. For the first time since getting a smart phone I don't think I'll be getting an iphone for the next one. I love the quality of photos and the "finder" screen or whatever you want to call it. As someone who's phone is mostly a secondary camera this looks to be perfect.
@@Kohki I really loved the zoom lenses. Not the same as other phones. You influenced me to buy this phone to be my next one. Thanks for this video it really got me! Haha
OK, these are hands down the best photos I've ever seen from this phone/camera. Finally someone who uses it as intended - great work! It's also some of the best photos I've seen taken with a smartphone, period. It actually looks like photos.
My family are dissuading me from getting this phone saying the camera is not great but I keep telling them it can come out with amazing shots this video just reinforces that. Great video!
beautiful pictures man really shows the potential of the Sony, they're so underrated. I'm thinking about switching to from 12 pro max to the Xperia mark 3.. Were those raw photos edited afterwards or stock? This video single handily confirmed the suspicion i had before which was other tech reviewers are not photographers nor do they even know how to use this phone's camera to it's max potential. Everyone saying the camera is bad but they just don't know how to use it. In the right hands, you made it look easy! this video helped a lot, i really love how you showcase different environment and times throughout the day. The editing is much appreciated too i know how much work that took !
Thank you very much! Glad it has helped you👍🏼 I think if you’re coming form a iPhone, the only problem would be getting used to android😂 But the Xperia is much more fun for photography. These are all shot on jpeg and I have edited a little. Such as white balance exposure and a bit of shadows/highlights. Nothing crazy. I love a slightly cooler tone image so that’s probably something you won’t see from stock (right off the bat) But you can actually change the W/B within the app. Haha yes reviewers are amazing at reviewing products made for the average consumer but this phone is not for an average consumer but father enthusiasts and professionals👍🏼
I have a Xperia 1 Mark II and it's definitely the best mobile camera I've ever seen, even though there are many other good phone cameras out there, the clarity and colour reproduction is superior compared to other Xiaomi , Samsung and Apple (even though the difference compared to Apple is quite small, as Apple makes really good cameras). Even though the production in this video is obviously professional and probably endorsed by Sony, I can definitely see that these results are possible in reality too, as I've gotten similar results when traveling to Berlin last year, even in low-light conditions. Hope we will be able to buy this in stores in Europe soon!
Apple uses the top end Sony sensors too and probably their computational software tweaks don't focus much on saturated shits like samsung so I guess that's why Apple's photos comes out great
Well you just completely cured any self doubt I had after just ordering this phone. Looked at reviews after I ordered it and thought, oh. They don’t look great actually. But seeing this, amazing. So happy I did now
Thank you Craig, I think people get intimidated by the learning curve that comes with the pro app, which isn’t hard but the app itself looks quite professional so I’d understand. It is a 12mp camera so it’s similar to most current high end smartphones out there but the colors, AF accuracy and speed is something unmatched for👍🏼 Hope you get it soon!
This video perfectly illustrates why this is guaranteed to be my next phone: learn how to use it and you can craft the shot YOU want with accurate colours and detail. Want a little tail light flair? There you go. Need to deepen those shadows? Certainly, sir. Results from the Xperia 1iii look like CAMERA images not smartphone images. That's what I want: control. Yes please, Sony. Fantastic video, fella
Amazing job man, so top notch, the quality of your work is exceptional and is among the best i have seen by any you tube reviewer ever. The editing, calm voice, choice of background and main music is just epic. You truly delivered, i didn't even want the video to end.
Pls pls a full tutorial on how to properly use the camera. As an inexperienced photographer I would like to start taking better pictures on the Xperia. Thanks
Thumbs up ! Would like to see a tutorial from you how to use the functions of the camera pro and video pro modes of the phone. Keep up with the good work.
at last someone who knows how to use the 1/111 camera and get the vids and photos it is capable of!!! watched so many utubers with this 1/111 camera who did not have a clue how to use it properly and then say it was not very good fools!!! thanks for the great pics and vids!!!
I adore my xperia 5 ii, will be keeping it for a long long time, its worth a quarter of what i paid now as sony phones used market seems to become super cheap quite quickly.. so won't be selling it for the 1 III or 5 III, this phone is perfect in every way
Damn. Excellent content, far better than what other CZcamsrs shoot with their Xperia. I'd like to see you shoot on the new Sharp Aqueos R6/Leica Leitz Phone 1 very soon if you could get yourself a loaner unit from Sharp or Leica. Also, time to get the new WF1000XM4 and taste the sweet sweet LDAC DSEE audio. 😏
They photos of the buildings look unreal! If you showed me those photos and said it was shot by a DSLR, I would have believed you right away Finally! A CZcamsr who actually knows what he's doing with a Sony camera
Whoa. My mind is blown away by those shots you got. You take epic photos and also share the locations so others can do that too. You should not exist theoretically 😂
Great video man. Great shots as well. Tokyo is a beautiful city, got to visit one day. The Xperia 1iii is a fantastic phone, anyone that says otherwise simply can't use it to it's fullest. I wanted to pick one up even before I saw this video, and now I want it even more. Photographers are gonna have a blast with it
New subscriber here! Finally found a video wherein the Sony Xperia 1 III's photography capabilities were fully showcased 🔥👌🏻 Great shots you have! Now I'm thinking to get one...
Excellent job. Tech reviewers on CZcams should watch this and learn instead of being so biased for the brands that are already dominating the market share.
This was excellent. finally someone who rally understands something about photography makes a smartphone camera review. The shots you got were fantastic, and really showed what a smartphone camera can do today when it is not heavily processed by ai before taking the shot.
Its the first time, I See someone who knows how to use Sony Xperia Camera to its fullest potential. You are Not Like the Other tec-youtuber who Just Point and shoot and then say If it's good or garbage. I loved to See this Video. Like and Abo from my side 👌
You are really a great professional. Because i am experiencing your frame score and pic sense exactly like wise on XPERIA 's youtube channel. You know how to get a great output from photo PRO. I have shared your video to some of the fb groups. I am interested to see this type of videos with XPERIA. We can also learn some lessons of photography 😂. Great video. Expecting more videos like this from you.. ❤
This new experia is so damn good ! Really surprised that the colours can come out so nicely !! Wasnt available here so I had to settle for one plus 9 pro 🥺
This is an excellent video. I like how the Camera Pro App has more options for the SS and ISO between the lowest and highest. I use an Xperia 1 and can't get between the 200 and 400 ISO when taking pictures manually. Great to see Xperia evolving more than ever. Thank you for this review. Much better than other videos I have seen.
The Best review of Sony Xperia I've ever seen and I didn't even finished yet)) Thank you gor not talk a live action and practical use of it. Really appreciate it!!!🔥
From editing to content and quality of the pictures, I'm hoping more people will have this on their youtube suggestions because it is so worth it. I'm glad you asked if we had questions about photography! Because I would like to know how to use this pro mode since I might buy this phone, how do you manage to get such good photos? What settings do what, and what to change depending on typical scenarios like: moving objects shots, daylight shots, night shots
Remidner: Still the best smartphone review!!! Not the Sony but every phone! Not couple of years but ever! Just really like and enjoy simply watching it ;))) 😃
Thank you so much for your video, this has literally sold me this phone, been holding out for the release in the uk, was either this or iPhone 12 Pro as I currently have a iPhone XR and I’m so bored of it, camera is terrible, your photos look amazing and crisp, so looking forward to placing my order, thank you once again
I’m glad to hear that this video helped! I think choosing between the Xperia 1III and iPhone 12 Pro was a great choice. If you can utilize the photography pro and enjoy taking the time to shoot, the Xperia is by far the most fun you Can get out of a smartphone🤩
Damn mann, this is so cool, thanks for making this content, you show how this phone can do with a proper photography skills, btw great photography of yours, love it😍
I discovered your video after debating if I want the Xperia 1 III and your video made it very convincing for me to get it! And thanks for sharing your sample images from your video! The quality is quite stunning for only jpeg!
First time passing by your channel, I'm just gonna say I wasn't expecting much, but one of the most beautiful and professional reviews I've seen, keep it that way, your channel will grow fast soon
Hi Kohki! This is a superb video. I'm looking to get a new camera-focused smartphone for three reasons; 1.) To replace my Canon DSLR when on holidays (I'm not as active taking photos now as I was when I first got it, and lugging the DSLR around + all the equipment I have is pretty cumbersome). 2.) To do some vlogging. 3.) And also as an additional video camera for the car videos I make (I already have a Sony RX100M2 for this). My primary choice is the Xperia 1 III as I have a soft spot for Sony smartphones, would you recommend it?
In other review videos, praising Sony will get you "Sony Fanboy" or "Sheeple" title even though you're trying to look what features that Sony excels in and other big brand phones excels at, seems like Sony has the unfortunate luck of being the "loser" in the smartphone world and not allowed to be the best at anything :) Reading the comments here feels like an oasis.
Excellent video, I loved it. Your shots are amazing and you really made an excellent job walking viewers through your photography. And the Xperia 1 III truly has an amazing camera, Sony did an excellent job with it. Too bad some of the people commenting felt it was necessary to be jerks, talking against Samsung’s cameras (which are great on their own and better than the Xperia Mark 1 III’s in some aspects) without reason.
@@Kohki That's one of the reasons I don't use my phone for anything more than the occasional casual snap and almost always have a camera on me. Can't wait to get my hands on a 1iii!
bruh.......what a video! and what a phone!..........amazing shots and the way you created the whole thing explaining everything piece by piece, awesome work man..........and ofcousre Sony is love, can't wait to hold this phone!
Excellently detailed video! I was on the fence about getting the phone, but your shots pushed me to "definitely" purchasing. Thanks for taking the time to share the experience with us all. Cheers!
Looks so good! The scenes, shots and video! Been a big fan but you show that the photographer makes or breaks the shot or scene! Stay awesome and stay safe!

glad to see that Xperias are one of the last phones that stand out in the world of computational photography. the photos taken are so natural that can blow the rest to the water. but it is sad to see that the vast majority of phone users these days prefer the aggressive HDR or saturated photos or some ridiculous-low quality super zoom shots to Sony's style
Sadly that's true. Most people actually don't know what a good photo is.
man the pictures taken at location 2 using promode look like they are straight up from a DSLR ! You definitely have talent and skills, using this phone as it was intended to make the best of it and show its true potential :)
this proves that an Xperia, in a good hands, can make wonders.
Whelp I'm sold man. For the first time since getting a smart phone I don't think I'll be getting an iphone for the next one. I love the quality of photos and the "finder" screen or whatever you want to call it. As someone who's phone is mostly a secondary camera this looks to be perfect.
You made those shots look easy bro! and with a phone? your skills are on another level!
@@Kohki I really loved the zoom lenses. Not the same as other phones. You influenced me to buy this phone to be my next one. Thanks for this video it really got me! Haha
The gopro placement is actually a good idea. Thanks
OK, these are hands down the best photos I've ever seen from this phone/camera. Finally someone who uses it as intended - great work! It's also some of the best photos I've seen taken with a smartphone, period. It actually looks like photos.
Thank you so so much!
It really feels like a camera haha
My family are dissuading me from getting this phone saying the camera is not great but I keep telling them it can come out with amazing shots this video just reinforces that. Great video!
Haha thank you! And I’m glad my video has helped you!
beautiful pictures man really shows the potential of the Sony, they're so underrated. I'm thinking about switching to from 12 pro max to the Xperia mark 3.. Were those raw photos edited afterwards or stock? This video single handily confirmed the suspicion i had before which was other tech reviewers are not photographers nor do they even know how to use this phone's camera to it's max potential. Everyone saying the camera is bad but they just don't know how to use it. In the right hands, you made it look easy! this video helped a lot, i really love how you showcase different environment and times throughout the day. The editing is much appreciated too i know how much work that took !
Thank you very much!
Glad it has helped you👍🏼
I think if you’re coming form a iPhone, the only problem would be getting used to android😂
But the Xperia is much more fun for photography.
These are all shot on jpeg and I have edited a little. Such as white balance exposure and a bit of shadows/highlights. Nothing crazy.
I love a slightly cooler tone image so that’s probably something you won’t see from stock (right off the bat)
But you can actually change the W/B within the app.
Haha yes reviewers are amazing at reviewing products made for the average consumer but this phone is not for an average consumer but father enthusiasts and professionals👍🏼
@@Kohki wow that's awesome to hear! Thank you so much for your insights Kohki!
SONY IS JUST BRILLIANT❤️,LOVE IT
I have a Xperia 1 Mark II and it's definitely the best mobile camera I've ever seen, even though there are many other good phone cameras out there, the clarity and colour reproduction is superior compared to other Xiaomi , Samsung and Apple (even though the difference compared to Apple is quite small, as Apple makes really good cameras). Even though the production in this video is obviously professional and probably endorsed by Sony, I can definitely see that these results are possible in reality too, as I've gotten similar results when traveling to Berlin last year, even in low-light conditions. Hope we will be able to buy this in stores in Europe soon!
Apple uses the top end Sony sensors too and probably their computational software tweaks don't focus much on saturated shits like samsung so I guess that's why Apple's photos comes out great
Well you just completely cured any self doubt I had after just ordering this phone. Looked at reviews after I ordered it and thought, oh. They don’t look great actually. But seeing this, amazing. So happy I did now
Thank you Craig,
I think people get intimidated by the learning curve that comes with the pro app, which isn’t hard but the app itself looks quite professional so I’d understand.
It is a 12mp camera so it’s similar to most current high end smartphones out there but the colors, AF accuracy and speed is something unmatched for👍🏼
Hope you get it soon!
This video perfectly illustrates why this is guaranteed to be my next phone: learn how to use it and you can craft the shot YOU want with accurate colours and detail. Want a little tail light flair? There you go. Need to deepen those shadows? Certainly, sir.
Results from the Xperia 1iii look like CAMERA images not smartphone images.
That's what I want: control.
Yes please, Sony. Fantastic video, fella
That has been exactly my experience with the Xperia 1 mark ii that I have had for about one year now.
Finally a video showcasing the photo capability of this phone.
Amazing job man, so top notch, the quality of your work is exceptional and is among the best i have seen by any you tube reviewer ever. The editing, calm voice, choice of background and main music is just epic. You truly delivered, i didn't even want the video to end.
Pls pls a full tutorial on how to properly use the camera. As an inexperienced photographer I would like to start taking better pictures on the Xperia. Thanks
Noted! I will do my best to make a video on this topic🤙🏼
Thumbs up ! Would like to see a tutorial from you how to use the functions of the camera pro and video pro modes of the phone. Keep up with the good work.
I really want to visit Japan!! Also thank you for the quality content!
The color is so natural that photos look like they're from the real camera.
at last someone who knows how to use the 1/111 camera and get the vids and photos it is capable of!!! watched so many utubers with this 1/111 camera who did not have a clue how to use it properly and then say it was not very good fools!!! thanks for the great pics and vids!!!
Finally a "real" review of Xperia 1iii cameras. Nice work bro.
I adore my xperia 5 ii, will be keeping it for a long long time, its worth a quarter of what i paid now as sony phones used market seems to become super cheap quite quickly.. so won't be selling it for the 1 III or 5 III, this phone is perfect in every way
Damn. Excellent content, far better than what other CZcamsrs shoot with their Xperia. I'd like to see you shoot on the new Sharp Aqueos R6/Leica Leitz Phone 1 very soon if you could get yourself a loaner unit from Sharp or Leica. Also, time to get the new WF1000XM4 and taste the sweet sweet LDAC DSEE audio. 😏
beautiful scenes, excelent pics and a great country
Thank you!
They photos of the buildings look unreal! If you showed me those photos and said it was shot by a DSLR, I would have believed you right away
Finally! A CZcamsr who actually knows what he's doing with a Sony camera
Whoa. My mind is blown away by those shots you got. You take epic photos and also share the locations so others can do that too. You should not exist theoretically 😂
Hahaha😂 thanks🚀
Great video man. Great shots as well. Tokyo is a beautiful city, got to visit one day. The Xperia 1iii is a fantastic phone, anyone that says otherwise simply can't use it to it's fullest. I wanted to pick one up even before I saw this video, and now I want it even more. Photographers are gonna have a blast with it
First hahaha
I love your videos bro!✨
Awesome! Great job with a great phone! Thanks, man! Looking forward to your cinematography part. ✌️
New subscriber here! Finally found a video wherein the Sony Xperia 1 III's photography capabilities were fully showcased 🔥👌🏻 Great shots you have! Now I'm thinking to get one...
Thank you very much for the sub!
I appreciate it🙇🏻♂️ and I hope my upcoming videos will also be entertaining to you🙋🏻♂️
@@Kohki, I'll be checking more of your contents 🙋🏻♂️ I did hit the notification bell as well to for more awesome contents! Keep it up, man 🔥
Finally some camera review and using full use of it, some reviews are just take pict randomly and not using full of the camera.
Thanks for the video!
Excellent job. Tech reviewers on CZcams should watch this and learn instead of being so biased for the brands that are already dominating the market share.
This was excellent. finally someone who rally understands something about photography makes a smartphone camera review.
The shots you got were fantastic, and really showed what a smartphone camera can do today when it is not heavily processed by ai before taking the shot.
Its the first time, I See someone who knows how to use Sony Xperia Camera to its fullest potential. You are Not Like the Other tec-youtuber who Just Point and shoot and then say If it's good or garbage. I loved to See this Video. Like and Abo from my side 👌
You are really a great professional. Because i am experiencing your frame score and pic sense exactly like wise on XPERIA 's youtube channel. You know how to get a great output from photo PRO. I have shared your video to some of the fb groups. I am interested to see this type of videos with XPERIA. We can also learn some lessons of photography 😂. Great video. Expecting more videos like this from you.. ❤
You knew how to use Xperia to the max! Thanks for sharing
Finally someone using the camera as it is ment to be.
I love the dedication you put in making these videos!
This new experia is so damn good ! Really surprised that the colours can come out so nicely !! Wasnt available here so I had to settle for one plus 9 pro 🥺
This is by far the most informative vlog on the camera module of this phone, great stuff. 👍
This is an excellent video.
I like how the Camera Pro App has more options for the SS and ISO between the lowest and highest. I use an Xperia 1 and can't get between the 200 and 400 ISO when taking pictures manually. Great to see Xperia evolving more than ever. Thank you for this review. Much better than other videos I have seen.
The Best review of Sony Xperia I've ever seen and I didn't even finished yet))
Thank you gor not talk a live action and practical use of it. Really appreciate it!!!🔥
Haha too kind thank you very much!!😍🚀
From editing to content and quality of the pictures, I'm hoping more people will have this on their youtube suggestions because it is so worth it. I'm glad you asked if we had questions about photography! Because I would like to know how to use this pro mode since I might buy this phone, how do you manage to get such good photos? What settings do what, and what to change depending on typical scenarios like: moving objects shots, daylight shots, night shots
First time watching your channel and subscribed straightaway. Quality content.
Any idea to release a video on how these photos are edited? Love the colour and feelings.
実に良い動画です。私もXPERIA 1Ⅲを購入済みですが撮影などの参考にもなりました、ありがとうございます❗他の動画も頑張ってください、応援してます😇‼️
this is the kind if video that I love to watch in 2K
Remidner: Still the best smartphone review!!! Not the Sony but every phone! Not couple of years but ever! Just really like and enjoy simply watching it ;))) 😃
Thank you so much for your video, this has literally sold me this phone, been holding out for the release in the uk, was either this or iPhone 12 Pro as I currently have a iPhone XR and I’m so bored of it, camera is terrible, your photos look amazing and crisp, so looking forward to placing my order, thank you once again
I’m glad to hear that this video helped!
I think choosing between the Xperia 1III and iPhone 12 Pro was a great choice.
If you can utilize the photography pro and enjoy taking the time to shoot, the Xperia is by far the most fun you Can get out of a smartphone🤩
Damn mann, this is so cool, thanks for making this content, you show how this phone can do with a proper photography skills, btw great photography of yours, love it😍
These photos are outstanding! So natural looking. Getting mine Friday! I'd love to see a video on all features, tips and tricks.
I discovered your video after debating if I want the Xperia 1 III and your video made it very convincing for me to get it! And thanks for sharing your sample images from your video! The quality is quite stunning for only jpeg!
First time passing by your channel, I'm just gonna say I wasn't expecting much, but one of the most beautiful and professional reviews I've seen, keep it that way, your channel will grow fast soon
10:10 😍 The reflection looks so nice🔥
Bro, you're so good at that. Those pictures are nice 👍
still remember my z5 premium which takes great lowlight picture, far better than any phones at the time
why dislike? You have to like at least for the effort taken right? See how happy this dude is for getting the night shots perfect.
Hi Kohki! This is a superb video. I'm looking to get a new camera-focused smartphone for three reasons;
1.) To replace my Canon DSLR when on holidays (I'm not as active taking photos now as I was when I first got it, and lugging the DSLR around + all the equipment I have is pretty cumbersome).
2.) To do some vlogging.
3.) And also as an additional video camera for the car videos I make (I already have a Sony RX100M2 for this).
My primary choice is the Xperia 1 III as I have a soft spot for Sony smartphones, would you recommend it?
Apart from the low light shots all of the shots were great
In other review videos, praising Sony will get you "Sony Fanboy" or "Sheeple" title even though you're trying to look what features that Sony excels in and other big brand phones excels at, seems like Sony has the unfortunate luck of being the "loser" in the smartphone world and not allowed to be the best at anything :)
Reading the comments here feels like an oasis.
Excellent video, I loved it. Your shots are amazing and you really made an excellent job walking viewers through your photography. And the Xperia 1 III truly has an amazing camera, Sony did an excellent job with it. Too bad some of the people commenting felt it was necessary to be jerks, talking against Samsung’s cameras (which are great on their own and better than the Xperia Mark 1 III’s in some aspects) without reason.
Great video, loved to see it, what a awesone phone with making some sick quality photo's well done 👏🏻
I gues i found my next phone
Sony 😍
"MAKE BELIEVE"
Sick🤙🤙 been waiting for this one
These images are fantastic! Very natural overall, the antithesis of the Samsung approach, aka dial saturation up to 11.
Thank you! Haha yeah The saturation on Samsung phones are not fun when trying to color correct images😅
@@Kohki That's one of the reasons I don't use my phone for anything more than the occasional casual snap and almost always have a camera on me. Can't wait to get my hands on a 1iii!
bruh.......what a video! and what a phone!..........amazing shots and the way you created the whole thing explaining everything piece by piece, awesome work man..........and ofcousre Sony is love, can't wait to hold this phone!
Awesome photos, hands-on shooting experience and travel vlog all-in-one! Really miss travelling in Japan 😢
great review. subscribed after a few minutes in.
Thank you so so much!
This is super good, both the phone and your video
Excellently detailed video! I was on the fence about getting the phone, but your shots pushed me to "definitely" purchasing. Thanks for taking the time to share the experience with us all. Cheers!
I like how the night shot is so so realistic than other brand phone, thanks for the video
This right here. Others are just brightening night time trying to turn it to day n it annoys the hell outta me.
@@Kohki yesss very accurate for phone and i think most accurate and your photography skill makes the great phone better, love your video thanks
Looks so good! The scenes, shots and video! Been a big fan but you show that the photographer makes or breaks the shot or scene! Stay awesome and stay safe!
