I’m going to repeat what most YouTube videos say on it really, plus some bits they don’t mention… It’s worth noting that I use it mainly for video rather than pictures. It’s great for situations where it’s a static setting, e.g. recording in a fixed location or as a high quality webcam. It is not good for fast or even medium speed moving subjects. I use it for recording first person YouTube footage and B-Roll and it’s ideal for that. Here are my main irritations: One extreme disappointment is that the USB-C connection to your PC only allows streaming at 720p, which is one of the main reasons I bought this model, but didn’t realise you couldn’t stream at 4K or even 1080p. So I had to buy an external capture card and HDMI cable. The second most annoying thing is that the power circuit doesn’t seem to be well designed, as the battery discharges even when it’s plugged into a high power USB-C port. This means that if you use it as a webcam then you’ll need to change the battery after 4 hours or so, even though it’s been plugged in! I’m certainly not risking one of the cheap dummy batteries or paying for the official one. The third thing is it’s remote control capabilities. The software is a mess and confusing, with lots of different protocols and connection methods, but none work well and some of which such as connecting your camera to your home WIFI network is not really documented at all. (Only connecting to camera as an AP is) The remote that you can buy for it only has a couple of buttons and so doesn’t really leverage the functionality of the camera. The HDMI and USB ports block the screen too, so getting the camera into the right mode when it’s on a desk mount squeezed between 2 monitors is very challenging. All I want to do it set focus, zoom in and out and start and stop recording remotely from my desk; and at least for me I do not find this easy to do. Having said all of that I still give it 4 stars and recommended for YouTubers because it’s relatively cheap for a downsampled 6K to 4K camera with good picture clarity. It’s night and day between this and what’s considered a fairly decent webcam, the Elgato FaceCam. 19 people found this helpful

The Sony Alpha ZV-E10 APS-C camera has truly exceeded my expectations and has become an indispensable tool for my photography and videography endeavors. Its compact and lightweight design, coupled with the impressive APS-C sensor, delivers stunning image and video quality. The autofocus system is remarkably fast and accurate, ensuring that every shot is sharp and clear. The articulating touchscreen makes framing and capturing shots from challenging angles a breeze. Moreover, the ZV-E10’s advanced features, including real-time eye autofocus and background defocus, add a professional touch to my content creation. With its user-friendly interface and excellent performance, the Sony Alpha ZV-E10 is a stellar choice for both enthusiasts and content creators seeking a reliable and versatile camera. 3 people found this helpful

As a YouTuber and tech enthusiast, I am always on the lookout for high-quality equipment that can help me produce better content without breaking the bank (too much). Here are my thoughts: For my current use (mostly in a studio environment) I must admit that I hesitated to pull the trigger on this camera. I was thinking I could get away with my smartphones, but truth is recording a clean and bright video inside 4 walls is still nearly impossible due to the very limited capabilities of the optics and tiny sensors in those (unless you live in California I guess). With the arrival of (finally) good 4k webcams such as the ElGato FaceCam Pro and Insta360 Link for example, I was tempted to return this camera and get one of those webcams for much cheaper (or even buy the two of them for the price of this Sony). But I remembered the flexibility a proper camera brings compared to simple webcams. At the end of the day, it all comes down to your needs and your budget. What I like: Everything. It is one of the very few cameras with the following features (which I really need on the daily) and at a decent price: clean HDMI view (so I can use my ElGato Camlink 4k in OBS with it) / flip out screen / external mic in / 4k video recording / removable lens. The USB-C file transfer and charging is great, offers a lot of flexibility and negates the needs to carry around yet another charger. While the body is mostly plastic, it doesn’t feel cheap at all. It is lighter and more compact than most, making me want to take it when going out. Works flawlessly with my DJI external mics and all cheap shotgun mics I plugged in. What I don’t like: Nothing directly related to the camera itself. It’s just like any other camera, many accessories are needed (and pricey). Fast SD cards, sturdier mounts, different lenses (especially a wide one, as the crop in 4k video recording mode is massive), and an AC adapter. The USB battery charger in the box, while designed only to recharge the battery, can slow down the discharge rate of the battery when the camera is on and recording. But I wouldn’t recommend it long term. It helps when in a pinch, but it won’t do for continuous recording and surely can’t be good for the camera and or its battery. I’m looking to get that Sony AC-PW20 adapter, but that’s another 100e/88£ to part with, and that somehow really annoys me. The Sony app which allows to “control” this camera through a smartphone is downright a joke, with an extremely slow live view and delayed reaction when tapping on the record/take photo button making it almost useless. If they would fix the app, this could actually be really helpful. 39 people found this helpful

Been using the Sony ZV-E10 for the past 6 months. Taken it abroad for travel, shot a few YouTube videos. This camera has almost everything you need to get started with videography, photography and content creation. If you are looking for a small, affordable, compact camera, with interchangeable lenses, then this is it. Especially if you are coming from a RX100 series and wanted a bit more from the RX100. I have the Sigma 18-50mm F2.8 lens and it takes great photos and videos. Not as small and pocketable than the RX100, but it has its pros. Good points * Touch focus – It’s not a touch screen for accessing the menu, but you can touch the screen for focusing on your subject, which is very convenient. * No recording limits in 4k or HD – You can record till either the battery dies, the sd card fills up or maybe when it overheats, which I’ve yet to experience. * Interchangeable lens. * In-built mic. Don’t like the in-built mic? Well, it has a mic jack. * Small, compact, and light. * Flip out screen – Useful for self vlogs, portraits, and various shots. Things to be aware of * No optical view finder – This may be a deal breaker for some. I find the optical view finder useful when taking photos in sunny bright conditions. * Screen under bright conditions – Under really sunny bright weather, the screen is very difficult to see, and a view finder in this instance would have benefited. * No inbuilt ND filter – Not the end of the world. * Does not have a dial to quickly switch between photo, video, and S&Q modes. You have to press the single button to toggle through. I prefer a dial. * Doesn’t have the S-Cinetone picture profiles that you will find in the A6700, ZV-E1. Not a deal breaker. BUT with a quick google search, you can find settings to get you close enough. * Image stabilisation – for video, make sure you have the steady shot enabled for hand held shots, otherwise the video is very shaky. With all that said. I still like the Sony ZV-E10. It’s an affordable compact interchangeable camera with a tonne of features. Paired with a quality lens, you can take amazing videos and photos. I think its the baby sibling to the A6600, A6700 series which has a higher price point. 16 people found this helpful

I got this specifically to make videos using the Product Showcase mode. And that mode works just great – it’s like magic. I’m pretty impressed with just how good the video quality is, as well as the ease of use. I don’t really use it for photographs so I can’t comment on that, but for video it’s great – I often use it in preference to my Sony A7iV because it’s so much easier, especially for product videos. Autofocus is fast, image quality is great and there’s a ton of options so you’re not stuck on auto. You can set this pretty much anyway you like. The flippy screen is something you’ll love or hate – I love it. When you face it to yourself, if you’re vlogging, it’s easy to see when you’re recording with the red frame around the whole screen. Very reassuring. It’s pretty lightweight too, so you don’t need a super heavy tripod for this. All in all, I think it’s great. One person found this helpful

I got it mainly for YouTube videos, but I found that it is also great for taking photos (especially in RAW format). In videos it holds the lack of light very well, in photos probably up to 3200 ISO there is no noticeable noise. The battery is lasting over two hours by keeping the screen constantly on between photos and videos. However, once the camera is connected via cable to the PC for live shots, the part in direct contact with the battery tends to overheat (probably because it charges slowly in the meantime). The built-in microphone is only good for ambient sounds (as it picks up any noise). Very light and easy to carry around, only take the lens included in the kit if you don’t have any others.

Sony Alpha ZV-E10L The Sony Alpha ZV-E10L is an amazing entry level camera, now for me this was a big purchase but I needed a new camera for content creating and other projects I had going so I needed a camera with a lot of video features, access to manual settings and lenses this camera has all of that and some features such as a flip screen I really wanted but I also didn’t mind sacrificing few features such as sensor and view finder. Product Used for Content Creation, Social Media, Light Photography / Filmography and for educational / test footage (Learning to Video and Colour edit with RAW and LUT configs). Likes / Pros Sony might make expensive products but there’s a reason for that they are very well paid, they last long and offer a lot of features their audience is after. This camera has amazing selection of settings and features, The Kit Lens well-worth the purchase as a first zoom lens, Video quality is outstanding (just takes little tweak of settings). Dislikes / Cons It’s not without it’s flaw in the world of camera this is budget / entry level for a Lens based camera with this quantity of features as such expect some flaws and limitations but for it’s price range it’s some of the best quality product I’ve found (I sent another camera back, I should of done more research and read more reviews). The stabilisation on this camera is a huge problem if you’re shooting footage on the move, the stabilisation gets to the point in order for it to be effective it adds such a huge crop makes me just want to use my phone, if shooting footage on the go i suggest a gimbal to support you (adding to the cost) and the battery life is some of the worst I’ve ever seen, invest in 3-4 or more space batteries or a plug in battery kit otherwise you will run into problems quickly. Summary & Verdict Depending on your use this is the ideal camera with amazing features, can do a lot with the functionality (does it well but excels at none, hence the price of other cameras £2000+) and for me it’s great camera for my uses but also gives me an idea of features I use the most, need the most and if I was to purchase an upgrade I know exactly which features i would focus on making the next purchase even easier. If using for content creation and social media this might be only camera you ever need depending on the content being made. Well worth the expense but as with most things do your research and ensure the product is right fit for you. 11 people found this helpful
