>>2790780I just got a ZV-E10 and viltrox 28mm f/4.5 for an upcoming hike, the camera weighs 14.3oz with battery and lens attached and easily fits into a jacket pocket. Total comes to $685 before tax with the lens on sale during black friday.
This is a video from my nearby lake under gray weather, first time testing the camera.
AF is very fast and responsive but I had it set up in a way that it chose to focus on the nearby shrub at the end. I used gyroflow to stabilize the video and horizon afterwards because there is no (physical) stabilization in this body + lens. It can't zoom either, but it's a tiny and cheap lens that performs well in daylight. The field of view is equivalent to 42.8mm on a full frame, nicer for framing than a wide 28mm without being useless for close subjects like 60mm.
Like others said, you probably won't notice differences unless you're viewing the image/video on enlarged prints or a TV. Most pictures are being viewed, at best, filling the 5-6" area of a smartphone.
I already shoot film as a hobby so to me a $700 mirrorless setup + $300 cheapo phone is better than $1k phone that struggles to do some of the special things a "real" camera can do, but are useless to someone who is not involved.
