camera off debate recently hit a new peak. Whatever the situation, we’ve all wondered at some point whether to turn our camera on or leave it off. Or maybe you’re experiencing Zoom fatigue while staring at your teammates’ faces through a screen. The cameras ability to automatically sync up reasonable quality video with high quality audio combined with the option to export in various file types makes making and uploading videos very easy however if you are wanting to do a lot of post production on the video (close ups, ken burns etc) you may find the video quality can hinder somewhat.Perhaps you’re scheduled for a large presentation-style virtual meeting with some attendee participation. That all being said this is still a nifty piece of kit and would definitely reccomend it to anyone starting off making their own videos. Unfortunately the 160 lense is not detachable and there are no settings within the camera itself to get round it. Also I found that the zoom function is not worth using as when engaged the video quickly becomes pixilated. On wider shots the 160 lense can, as expected, cause warping in the video. I will however say that the overall video recording quality is a touch lack luster. This coupled with the ability to record all tracks separately (need an extremely fast, high grade memory card to do this) makes post production that much easier. The audio recording capabilities are absolutely fantastic, the on board mics are crisp and clear and the option of having another two audio input sources has proved invaluable. This camera has a lot of features that I like and some that I dislike. Although it can be used for recording audio and later mixing it together with video, but you don't need Q8 for that, can just use H6.
Do not use for any serious production (like music vids or interviews), the picture quality is good, but not up to the standard. Therefore, use this camera for: videoblogging (it also works as a webcam), short overview videos and other draft/in the field work (like going around the shop and checking out cymbal sounds). In the end footage from this camera could only be used for bloopers. We were using several cameras to shoot music videos in the field in the morning. The quality of picture even on the best possible setting is poorer than of DSLR cameras (lenses again). However, by no means this is a camera to make music videos, because it has only wide angle lens without any possibility to change it. Battery time is enough to shoot over 2 hours in the best quality (32GB SD card), touch screen is handy and adjusting mic to the noise level is easy with blinking indicator. The camera works perfectly! Well-made, really good quality. On some occasions I took it to shoot the concerts. I'm a drummer, so I mainly used camera to make videos for myself. Since lens are really wide, then even with smallest zoom level there is remarkable distortion at edgesīut if you need good sound quality, and you are not so demanding about video, then Zoom Q8 is the best choice! If you record backlit profile 1080/30 16Mbps then sometimes half your nose or lips will disappear:) If you want really good video quality, you have to use at least 1080/30 24 Mbps then have large memory card really well (max capacity accepted by cam is 128GB) Here are some issues with video, but no messing with sound. Sony cams what I was using earlier Sony HDR PJ810 gave perfect video quality but sound was always poor. Very good option is also a possibility to add different exteranl mics and adjust them separately. Gain is adjustable, there is possibility to monitor sound input, also use low pass and some other filters. I am always using a shotgun mic SGH6 (optional, sold separately) and I am very satisfied with the part of the recording that is most important in my context - sound. I am using Zoom Q8 already some month and I have used it for recording dialogues from distance of 3-4 meters, but also lectures from 10+ meters. foam windscreen, li-ion battery (up to 3 hours operating time), USB cable, tripod to "three-prong action camera mount" adapter, lens cover, lens cap, strap
