The amount of detail and information this video has is amazing, you can see how much work you put into this! Thanks so much for this guide!

[MarsJimmy]

I've spent an hour on this video, don't want to know how many you have spent on it. This is going into my permanent folder. I finally know how my camera works XD

[rickeyvarga]

I just bought this camera to memorialize a cross country adventure motorcycle trip to the National Parks later this year. I'm a total and complete rookie with photography/videography and felt overwhelmed when I unboxed the camera and began trying to navigate the settings. I can't thank you enough for taking the time to produce this video and share your knowledge. I am simply blown away by this tutorial which will play a valued roll in documenting and sharing my epic journey with family and friends ...thank you again sir!!!

[PweetieWura]

I am honestly speechless! you deserve a grammy award for this video. Thank you for blessing us with gorgeous knowledge .

[centinela]

Man, your tutorial saved my life, the manual is very unfriendly. I wish the manual were easy to read and understand like in Nikon cameras. I really do appreciate what you have done here. A big thanks to you.

I'm barely ten minutes in and have already learned a ton. I technologically incompetent but trying to run a Youtube channel. I cannot tell you how much I appreciate this video. Thank you so much for taking the time to make it!

26:35 "And when you're standing in front of the camera it'll actually smoothens you skin out and make you look extra pretty" - I Love It.

[TheJungleHaven]

Thank you MUCH for this brilliant video. After filming youtube videos on my phone for over 2 years, I finally bit the bullet and ordered one of these, and this video is a blessing 💚

[ongmoto]

Sony should sponsor this vid! I've gotten so much value from this video, definitely will save and rewatch again and again. $5.00 to you sir !

[qctr]

Thank you very very much for this nice tutorial. Searching for the Sony ZV-1 threw up hundreds of reviews, all very similar to each other. This was exactly what I was looking for - a newbie guide that explains the settings, icons, menu, etc.
Thank you once again. Please do continue to make this 'How to' beginner guides - a follow up guide on shooting different scenes would be fantastic.
Thanks again!

I just bought the camera and you saved me a lot of time and nerves. Greetings from Ukraine!

[kobrien]

This is one of the best tutorials I’ve ever seen. Walks through things slowly, you feel like you’re in the room.

This video is stellar. When this camera came out YouTube was flooded with surface level reviews that all parrot the same talking points. Great video with tons of detail. This is super helpful, I just subscribed

[motivationalmarketer]

I just got the Sony ZV 1 and this video explains a lot. Thank you

[semolenkiah]

12:50 exactly what I've been trying to figure out for the last 2 hours the power of youtube is fantastic thank you sooo much sir

[Thepurposeful_man]

Just bought this camera for my youtube journey. Jason, I really appreciate this guide. The easy and calm tonality and the practial guide you delivered is amazing. Thank you sir, I hope you have a blessed day.

[funkypunkypine]

I just got this camera and was way overwhelmed. I watched this video from start to finish and and now I feel a lot more confident. Thank you!!

[kudoswriters]

These step by step details of making various changes is absolutely critical for a beginner. This is my very first camera, believe it or not. I've watched it before I bought my camera.

Now I've got the camera in front of me and I'm changing the settings. I'm using the on-screen menu rather than the icons because I'm not familiar with what each of them are.

[noahtherockstar]

got this camera for myself for christmas this year, time to take this youtube thing seriously! appreciate the video to kick-start my vlogging career <3

[CwinterbabyDesign]

Your video is a beginner-friendly video for the Sony ZV-1. At first, I was like all man an hour and six minutes. After watching your step-by-step video I am confident with my new camera. Also, you made sure the video was only talking about the camera & if you need more help on how to set up different features on the camera you had a link to it. Sometimes creators try to make you purchase things that you don’t need you were just straight to the point. Thank You have a beautiful day.
