Sony Vlog Camera 2023

Overall, I LOVE the Lumix S1. I use it mostly for it's 10bit 4k video ability. The 4k resolution and detail is spectacular. It's 10bit color in HLG and VLog is great and it's VLog dynamic range is THE most I have EVER seen in any camera before. It's 150Mbp/s 4k long GOP CODEC is surprisingly tough. It encodes VERY well down into the shadows and allows you to aggressively stretch colors upward without seeing the noise floor and compression artifacts that you certainly would expect. Auto focus is not on Sony's A+ level but it's not terrible either. I would rate it's AF a solid B grade performer. Now for the one bad part - In VLog, the S1 and S1H suffer a severe defect in terms of blue LED lights. Actually, they are completely intolerant to any kind of blue lights in dark scenes. In fact, they will go berserk and clip the blue very, VERY badly. The blue clipping will swallow areas all around any blue LED light, completely ruining your shot. However, this does NOT happen in HLG at all. HLG is perfectly fine in the exact same scenes. I believe this can be fixed in firmware but until then, when using VLog, be EXTREMELY careful with any blue light in your shot. (i.e stage lighting or wedding receptions, etc..) If you see blue, switch to HLG....don't risck it! With that problem aside,...this is a PHENOMENAL camera in sooooo many ways. I'm very much in love with it! (I left Sony for this camera because of it's 10bit video)

It's easy to buy any camera here and I like this camera for vlog

Easy to learn and fun point and shoot/vlog camera!

Must have vlog equipment!

I purchased this microphone to pair with my Sony a6400 for vlog style shooting and have been very impressed with the instant boost in sound quality. The all metal construction is very nice as well and the lyre suspension system is great for reducing handling noise. All in all this is a great microphone for the sub $100 category.

I had purchased this to support a Sony ZV-1 to take photos/video at ground level and to VLOG. The build quality is good. The ballhead is basic, but does the job. It tightens adequately. Nice compact unit.

I bought Sony 77A80L OLED TV on December 2023, after I compared with other competitor brands. So far I satisfy with this TV. One of the best thing feature is up-scaling.

I replaced my older Sony BRAVIA 43" with this newer 2023 Sony BRAVIA 42" model. These the largest sizes that would fit in my entertainment center. Great picture quality and sound. When figured out add my Sony 5.1 entertainment center in the mix, sound was even better.

Why did I buy an older G7 in 2023? Great value in a light and small package with a great kit lens. I already have a full Sony set up for still photography, but needed a video set up. And for the price of 1 new Sony video body, I could get TWO G7's with lenses. Seemed like easy math to me. And after using these cameras for a few weeks now I KNOW I made the right choice. I'm really impressed with the quality video I get from the Lumix.

This backpack is the best I bought in 2023,
