Amazing set up, if you want pro equipment in one package this is it. My only grip is the top handle is pointless it doesn?t fit the body with out a cage. So be prepared to buy a cage and top handle

Great package

I don?t know how anyone can pass up this deal, if there is any doubt about the Z Cam, abandon that and get one immediately!

I truly can?t be more impressed

So far so good. The camera bundle is great. I did have to purchase some additional accessories which keep this from being a 5 star review. I had to purchase a cage, two c-fast cards, a grip, some cold shoes, a tilta nucleus nano wireless lens adjuster and a pelican box to protect it all. This camera is definitely going to take my videography to the next level. I will say that for under $10K it seems like a great value, but the bundle could use some work. I think they could make it more turn key.

First Cinema Cam

Incredible cinema camera. I?ve been a Canon guy for years but I?m so glad I took a chance and made the leap to ZCAM. There?s nothing from Canon at this price point that comes even close to being able to do what this camera does. Also the ergonomics are fantastic; though I?d recommend getting a handle with a record button.

ZCAM-new leader of cinema cameras

First off, I have to say that I did a lot of research before buying the Z-Cam E2-S6 (through YouTube and comparing the spec sheets from this and other cine cameras from the same range) and now that I own it, I am happy to say it lives up to the praise!

A long time ago I did videography for years using my Canon T2i (yes, I know!) and had stepped away from the field for a long while. Jumping back into the world of videography with new clients, I was amazed to see how far the technology has come and how affordable a cinema camera was!

What I love about the E2-S6 is that it shoots in a variety of frame rates, codecs and resolutions. I chose the S6 for it's 6K technology figuring I won't need to shoot in that much (for now) but in the long run when 6K becomes the standard (as 4K is widely requested now by clients who end up outputting on social  media at 1080p anyways) I'll have a camera ready for that task as opposed to feeling like I need to upgrade.

Buy it today! :D

The Long-Needed Upgrade for my Cinematography/Videography

great camera just started real getting in to the full range of it. the base design makes it a all purpose camera

new level of video

Great product, exactly as expected. Would recommend!

Great buy

Can't think of anything that can beat the E2 S6 at its price point. The ability to shoot a proffesional codec like Prores internally really pushes it above all the "hybrid" cameras out there. Of course you have some doing RAW now like the R5 or the Sigma FP. The difference with the E2 is of course the prores but also the form factor. The E2 will also not overheat on you and has no record limits. I'd also like to mention its 4k 100fps. Yes its H265 only (for the time being). I've not done extensive testing in 100fps but the shadows seem very clean and dynamic range is excellent. 

All the pros are: 
NPF battery placement, ability to mount E-ND's, 6k prores HQ (or 4k or 2.8k, or HD), 12 bit RAW internal up to 60fps, excellent color science, robust design. 

Cons
Prores only displays as 720p proxy when previewing in camera, Zraw doesn't have the usability of Z-raw, rolling shutter isn't great (not really bad either at least for cameras in this price bracket)

Best Camera for the Price

This is definitely an upgrade from my pocket 4k. This thing is a gamechanger for professionals on a budget looking to take their productions to the next level.

The real deal

I like this camera a lot, but wish I would have done just a little more research before purchase.  None of my complaints have anything to do with video quality, as it is superb.  My problems are the lack of tech.  When hooking up to an external recorder, it will not trigger record on Atomos Ninja V, in any other codec other than ProRes RAW?!  Silly!  If you are shooting with CFast and PortKeys or even with cellphone as monitor, you are golden.  The small form factor, combined with a simple cellphone will all but make you invisible while out on a run and gun.  But, when you have it hooked to the Atomos and have to hit record on the monitor, it makes me feel like I’m not recording the best possible signal from the camera.  The support group is amazing and it’s nice to have access to developers, when you are having issues!

Great camera

Solid camera.  The EF lens mount is super tight..  Way better than the turn-click type.

Solid Camera

Great and I have two Red cinema cams. I love the Z cams  (also own the e2-m4) ... very solid build and quality. Both build and image quality are top shelf.. I keep one on a gimbal and the other rigged up.

Perfect camera regardless of price

Amazing camera for the price.  I switched over from a BMPCC 6K.  Main points that won me over was the form factor, modularity, and battery life.   The censor is a true s35 over the BMPCC 6K’s smaller censor.  Image quality is incredible too and the extra stop of DR over the BMPCC is much welcomed. Not only that the support behind the camera is great too, seems like the company is listening to their consumers and acting quickly to tend to our needs.  Overall very happy with my purchase.

Red Komodo who?

This camera has been great so far, definitely rivals my bmpcc4k. The battery life is better and the form factor is nice however you still would like to rig this up. Waiting to see the compatibility with the ninja v soon for camera control. The quick buttons make it easier to get to presets since this menu isnt as quick as other systems. The menus are easy to navigate though but theres no touch screen. I havnt seen a huge difference in quality between my pocket and this camera yet but i do enjoy the form factor, quick presets, ability for lens mount changes, and ability for Electronic ND.

ZCAM S6

Coming from Sony ,this is definitely a step up. The only thing I miss is advanced auto focus but I understand that this is a cinema camera. Zlog is so much easier to work with than slog,and the selections of framerates is a big win! This review will be too long if I continue. I love the camera,and the company in general.
