Excellent Video!!! this is just what I needed I got a A7C for $1100 with a shutter count of 47 + smallrig cage and 2 batteries!

Sony if you’re listening, A7C II with the new subject auto focus features, AI features, dynamic active stabilization, 4K60-120P and EVF!

The E1 is good and all, but I need a beast workhorse than can record (effectively) forever without overheating.

A7C it is, until we get the coveted A7Cii

Hi Mark, your comparison videos are the best.

[switchunboxing]

Better 1080 sounds cool and as a digital creator I always found 4k to be way overrated. Until I recorded in 4k. I don’t plan on every going back. Not because there’s such a huge difference in resolution (no sorry I’ve seen some awful 4k). But because when you crop in POST, you’re still getting a crisp image. At least that’s my experience on iPhone.

All this time and I had never thought about that. All this time I was zooming in on 1080 footage. Yeah not a good look.

So for my content, I plan on sticking to 4k 30. Even if I’m not exporting in 4k. Just gives you more to work with. Just like taking a 32mp photo vs 12. Why did no one tell me about this!!

Mark, love your channel, very informative. I run a channel myself, recently bought the ZV-E10 and am disappointed with the stabilisation for so called vlogging camera. Do you think I should just buy a gimble for the ZVE10 or sell it and get the ZV-E1? And if so, what simple run and gun gimble would you buy? Thanks buddy.

Hey Mark, are the colors better in the ZVE1 straight out of camera compared to the A7C? I guess like putting in comparison FX30 color science with ZVE10... ☺

[Candyroxnrulz]

Please make a comparison between the ZV-E1 and ZV-E10!!! Many of us would love to see it

[CornerstoneWorshipTutorials]

I think the a7c is still a great camera!

[SalimThachambath]

A comparison I’ve been waiting for, thank you. I Just bought new A7C for $1350 on sale 😊

[gordon]

Do you even sleep anymore? So many great videos lately! A7C seems like a great small camera and probably the better choice if photography and travel outdoors high on your list. Still pricey though, even used. Perhaps a sale on Amazon Prime days! As for stab, do both allow catalyst browse? Loved the ‘Don King’ mic cover reference.

Thanks for this Mark. Not having an EVF is a hard one for me to get over. I just shot some architecture videos here in Chicago and it was super bright out. My A7iii and A6600 have an EVF and that was so helpful to me. Though having 4k at 60p would be very nice 🙂 Thank you for your videos!

Great job on the video Mark! Thanks for making it.

[dccoletrain]

Unless you can get the A7C super cheap…. I’m considering the ZV-E1 but I have a feeling when it gets warm where I live it won’t be great with 4K60. The cheap plastic build also is a concern. I have the ZV-1 and it won’t make me cry if I break it at it’s price.

Hey Mark! Just found your channel today, definitely my go to for camera videos now :D Just wondering your thoughts I currently record on an iPhone 12 Pro for You Tube. I want to upgrade to a camera though. I'll pretty much just be using it for talking head videos! Occasionally maybe some Instagram Reels content. Do think it's worth the extra £750 Investment? Thanks!!

[wdrcinsantodomingo]

The ZVE1 should have been the A7C with the new AI auto focus and new menu system. This ZVE1 is more like a new A7CII

[podvocative]

"Sony hasn't talked to me... MOST people don't talk to me." I love this guy 🤣

[glasco_]

Mark what’s the best place to trade your camera in? I need to do this lol I get all these cameras lol

[CinePals]

Wondering why, with all the bells and whistles, other resolution options aren’t available like it is on the Canon r5 and r5 c. Specifically “true” 4K mode. 4096 x 2160, or 2048 x 1080. Getting that little extra width is pretty cool.

[Giovanni-Giorgio]

Between these two i would go for the zv-e1. I'm still baffled they did basically nothing to make it run cooler. The plastic body is a heat trap.
