Alpha ZV-E1

Sony ZV-E1. You can buy used ones for less than $1500. Camera has the same low light sensor as the A7Siii/fx3.

No, I just used a Sony ZV-E1, it takes really crisp low light videos. Why the video looks a little weird is the compression to make it a GIF that works well on Reddit.

My main question would be why there's 2 lenses there that are essentially doing the same thing. I'd also not bother with a gimbal as a beginner too fwiw and why 2 tripods? The 1DXii was a great camera in its day but it's really starting to show its age now If you're a beginner i'd look at something

Also keep in mind that the FX3 has a 1:1 readout in 4k and the Canon is line skipped. Common misconception about the FX3 (and α7S III, ZV-E1, FX6 that use the same sensor). These cameras actually create their UHD 4K from a ~4.2K oversample, i.e. the full width of the sensor. The Canon oversamples fr

As someone who works with both professionally, I prefer Sony. If I was to start today with a new camera (and a low budget), I’d go with the Sony ZV-E1 just to get that sensor at the lowest price possible. But LUMIX is a fantastic option as well. A GH5 or GH6. A used GH5 might be the best value for a

When shooting listing videos with my Sony ZV-E1 (Same sensor and processor as the FX3 or A7SIII) and either my Viltrox 16MM F1.8 for the majority of the shots or my Tamron 28-75 F2.8 for detail shots, I typically shoot in 4K60, so depending on the lighting conditions in each room, I'll typically sho

Sony FX3 is kinda where the consumer high end went. Lumix with the S5IIx is the best value for money right now. The Sony FX30/ZVE1 and Lumix S9 make for great small form factor video machines. Most of today’s cameras make a great image but are limited by how long you need them to run, cameras used t

I generally use a Sony zv-e1 with a 12-24mm lens but also have a canon 90d with a 10-18mm lens I used for years. I use the Sony because of its superior video. I rig it on a DJI rs4 and also use a DJI mavic 3 classic drone. The Sony isn’t the best photo camera but certainly does well enough for my ne

I've only bought one camera (Sony ZV-E1) new in my life because the used prices were close to brand new. The rest of my cameras I have bought used (both from private sale and reputable shops) and I've had 0 issues with any of them. Isn't it better to just buy used from a reputable dealer and get a c

Get an A7Siii used. Best deal by a mile. Especially if they toned down the noise reduction (not sure if they did this though). That higher second native ISO of 12,800 on the FX3, A7Siii, and ZVE1 makes a large difference. Between the FX30 and FX2 definitely grab the FX2, you can save money buy getti
