Watching a ZVE10 video on YouTube tells you nothing about the true bitrate or codec performance. YouTube re-compresses files to 8-bit 4:2:0, destroying the subtle color information you need to judge the camera's 8-bit internal recording limit.
The ZVE10 records in XAVC S, which uses H.264 for 1080p but frequently switches to H.265 (HEVC) for 4K. sony zve10 sample video free download fixed

Import the 4K clip. Find a scene with vertical poles or window blinds. Pan the camera quickly (simulate a whip pan). Count how many frames it takes for the vertical lines to straighten. The ZVE10 has a readout speed of approx 25ms. If the download plays back with "jello" wobble, that is the authentic performance (not a bug).
