Hello welcome to be tech. This is David I've been playing with the Sony Xperia v all weekend long and this video is going to be about the camera. In this compact neat little compact phone, it's actually very attractive device, I actually really like the feel of it in the hand and the way it looks, I think it does look better than the Xperia one somehow, even though it doesn't have the same quality of materials for the build. There are few concessions with this handset like it's, not a memory stack sensor. The main sensor on the Xperia 1 is an export RS for mobile memory stack sensor. So this is a similar technology that is in the big boy cameras that they make the Sony Alpha Ranger cameras which are among the best mirrorless cameras or even full-frame cameras that you can buy at the moment.
The memory stack sensor that you will find on the Xperia 1 allows it to shoot at 960 frames per second, with its super slow motion. Dropping the memory from the sensor means that there is no super slow motion with the Xperia v. It will shoot 120 frames per second at 1080p, but really with the camera. That is the only main difference between this and the Xperia 1, but still is 699 pounds for this device. It's not a cheap phone, so it is a slightly disappointing that they've dropped that feature.
It is one of my favorite features from Sony smartphones. Furthermore, it's really nice to know that you can get some perfect.1080P super slow motion if you need to so a bit disappointing there, but this phone does take very good images. Ok, it's not quite on the same level as what we've seen recently from Apple. They have kind of changed the game a little with the performance of their camera on the new iPhone 11, but this camera still does perform very well, although if you consider that the iPhone 11 is just 30 pounds or more for the base model, which, incidentally comes with just 64 gigs of on-board storage, which is ridiculous- but don't get me started on that, this phone comes with 128 gigs of on-board storage, we've got 6 gigs of RAM the Snapdragon 855. It's a well-equipped very well-equipped phone.
We've got the HDR screen with the x1 for mobile upscaling technology, so it up scales everything to HD arc. It's a decent phone there's actually a lot to it. I'm going to have a full tips and tricks guide very soon, but before I go on, let me say a big thank you to direct 24 years of award-winning customer service the place to go. If you need a new phone, as you can compare all available deals with all UK networks, definitely worth checking out. Their link is in the video description below also down there.
You will find a link to our BTX Amazon shop. All the best tech and accessories are recommended by us. Definitely well worth a look. One thing that I did notice about this phone is that when you're looking for the viewfinder, the preview date shows, you of the feature is never anything like the actual photo that you get. There is some processing going on after, and it does take a second or two to complete it, but once it does, it gives you a very good shot, most of the time, even at 10 times zoom when I was taking these shots, the image through the viewfinder was awful, and I was worried that the shot was going to be terrible.
The three lenses are 12 megapixel sensors. The ultra wide-angle is a 16 millimeter, equivalent focal length with f/2 point for brightness, and you do notice the difference in quality between the ultra wide-angle, the wire Tangible, which is the Error RS sensor, and then the telephoto lens, which is a normal CMOS sensor. There is some difference in performance and with its low, like average, and the telephoto camera is a 52 millimeter lens. One thing to take note of is that the ultra wide-angle lens by default doesn't use its lens correction, so we'll give you a fish eye effect when you use it. So if you want to get rid of that, fish eye effect go into the settings and switch on the lens and correction.
Before you start taking pictures, I mean it's good to have a fish eye lens. You know, maybe once a year, it's very rare that you would ever use it, or I would ever use it personally, and I think most people would as well. So it is strange it's not switched on by default, but that's another little quirk of this phone I think the main sensor performs at a good level. The other two are it slightly behind, as I mentioned before. But overall, the performance is fairly good.
I do feel like with every release. The software does get better and better, and they are going in the right direction. For me, performance is much better for video, although it doesn't shoot at 60 frames per second in 4k. It does deliver stabilized 4k footage and if you switch to HDR- and you do get excellent results, I found the stabilization was very good at 4k. If you want the smoother video, then drop to 1080p, and you can shoot at 60 frames per second, there.
I didn't really see any real difference between the stabilization at 1080p and at 4k. To me, they look pretty much the same, but overall it does produce really nice video, and you can take it up a level if you use the cinema. Pro app this app just simulates a cinema camera giving you cinematic style, Lutz or looks to your images and giving you full manual controls as well as letting you shoot in that 21 by 9 aspect ratio which you can't do in a normal camera. App I do like the cinema Pro app. It does encourage people to learn how to use the full manual controls, which gives you more control over your image.
It's quite a simplified app. Furthermore, it is quite easy to use, but just be aware that it is full menu controls for everything. So as well as all the shutter speed in the ISO, and all of that you don't get any stabilization, so you need to put it either on a gimbals or on a tripod, but as well as that, the ultra wide-angle lens is not corrected either. So that is something that you would have to correct when you're editing the video- it's not quite as comprehensive as the film product that you'll find on the iPhone, but it does result in some really great-looking images that are fit for the big screen overall I feel like it is the same old story that we had with the Xperia one. In my opinion, that device had great hardware, but it just wasn't backed up with the right kind of software.
It just doesn't process images enough or in the right way when compared to other smartphone cameras at the same price range. The Sony phones are more for the photography purist, the kind of people that want to process their own images afterwards, because it will deliver you an honest image when compared to other smartphones, which tend to heavily process the image and give you the best possible looking shot, which is just ready for Instagram or ready to do whatever you want to do with it here, it will deliver you a great shot with plenty of dynamic range, whether that's in low-light or not. For me, video performs a lot better and I. Do like the cinema, Pro and the fact that it's free, and it's already installed on your phone. The film product, for example, on the iPhone, is a 15-pound app which, when you consider the functionality that it actually gives your phone is a bargain, but it's still 15 pounds.
You know I'm sorry at least this one's free. This is a really nice phone. You know if you like, compact phones, then you'll instantly love the feel of this phone as soon as you pick it up, it's quite a unique design, and it's a beautiful design anyway. I have more from the Sony Xperia v very soon, including a full review, so make sure your subs, you don't miss out. Also follow me.
