The Sony ZVE1 For Photography | Are 12 Megapixel Photos Enough?

The Sony ZVE1 is a video beast, so how does the Sony ZVE1 stack up for photography in 2024? Are 12 megapixel photos enough for Instagram and will the ZVE1 be a good photo camera? Well, today as I walk you through a Lightroom editing session with the photos from the Sony ZVE1 we'll find out!

The 12MP sensor is actually a 48MP where they combined 4 pixels into one for deeper color.

Good job. Having owned an a7 lll from a while back, the menus are massively improved. I think people viewing this won't know this was shot @ 12 meg

This is the perfect video that i am looking for several months 🙂

Appreciate if you could also post the settings used to capture these images as it is important for us to gauge if it's worth buying. You were also searching for the setting on 2:13 but you did not display it in lightroom and moved on..

12 MP is plenty! Way sharper than most film photos

Just bought a 14 year old camera that only has 10 mega pixels. The photo's look good enough for me 😊Bought it to see if photography is something I want to take more seriously.

Hey! Great video. Considering the zve1 for podcasts, interviews, and travel! Do you think you could take some fast action sports with this casually?

[MODESTYXO]

Great content for documentary/ vlog content would you recommend the canon r6 mark 2, zv-e1 or the sony fx3 keep up the good work. i also like to take pictures on occasion

I’ve used the a7s2 for about 5 years now, deliberately wanted that 12.1 megapixel full frame sensor because of the giant photo-sites (spelling) that makes it incredible in low light.
I’ve been wanting to upgrade for the auto focus alone but the a7s3 isn’t as good as the zve1 for the auto focus but you can use the hdmi for raw video on that and the fx3…
I don’t know, so many choices for Sony, but with Nikon and canon stepping up it’s putting pressure on them. ESP with Lumix’s new sensitive low light performers too.
I’m always shooting at night and that’s why it’s important to me!…
What’s important to you!?
I’m ting of a7mark4 now but the mark 5 is months away….
So if the price isn’t fubar I will go with that but if they bring the mark 4 down it’ll be that.
Again it’s for the autofocus, it’s more important with the wildlife I shoot, I’m constantly missing focus with my current and it pisses me off….

Enough ramble, what do you think I should go with?
Keep in mind I have 600mm and 5 wide angles in e mount.

I really like this kind of spontaneous videos. Good job

I Have a a6700 at the moment and I’m thinking of selling it for a ZV-E1 do you think it’ll be worth the switch?

[Youke]

What’s your lens on this camera? I have Sony Zv-e1 for clips but I’m going for holidays and I’m looking for good lens to do photos with sun and more. Now I have Tamron 17-50

[rhymevara]

Great video, these photos were RAW or JPEG ?

[JMYt]

Would it be good for sports/ high motion photography?

[insane]

You can say budget all you want but the price?

[MatTremblay]

But you’re also using the a7cii for photography?

[Zammirshad]

Hey zac I know it’s getting out of context, but could you recommend me a camera b/w canon r6 and lumix s5 as a short filmmaker.

I have been using the ZV-E1 since October, got it mainly for video but caught the photography bug and honestly been using it as a photography camera mostly. I felt I was missing out with only 12mp and recently have been getting the urge to upgrade. I have a few lenses, 50mm F1.8, 24-105mm f4 and 70-200mm f4 and after watching this, I feel I can continue with the ZV-E1 a little longer.

[Sdelayfoto]

✌️ how does it work with camera flash?
this is the main question

[wakeywarrior]

I didn’t buy it as a photo camera, but the photos are awesome and blow away, say, a Nikon Z50.
