This article differs from the usual editorial line where I share with you how to gain customers with LinkedIn , source the best talents or find a job with LinkedIn .
I made this video because the video explodes and it is very useful in social selling . It brings what is lacking in digital: humanity.
So, after having looked for a long time for the right versatile camera for vlogging, interviews, quality videos on LinkedIn and YouTube … I found what might just be the perfect camera: the Sony RX 100 VII.
The best video material for professional results
Here are my material recommendations for professionals who want versatility and a professional image:
Sony DSC-RX100M7 High Speed Compact Expert Digital Camera 24-200mm Zoom Lens, Black .
Quite simply the best quality / functionality / size ratio for the next few years!
It is simply stunning and fits in a pocket!
● Shoots in 4K with stabilization.
● There is no 30 min limit! It is rare enough to specify it! You can film conferences or trainings.
● Successful photos and videos with the best autofocus on the market.
● A microphone jack.
● Slow motion and slow motion of space.
● Swivel screen for vlogs
● GPS / NFC…
In short, I finally found the perfect device: https://amzn.to/34VC5Zb
PS: I am not paid by Sony to say that.
By default, 4K is limited to 5 min, after 24 hours of research, here’s how to remove it.
In the configuration menu 3 in [Tmp OFF voltage. aut.] set it to [High].

Making Video on LinkedIn: Important Reminders
I have already written several articles on the LinkedIn video, which I invite you to read so as not to make “mistakes” which would be penalized by the LinkedIn algorithm :
- Posting a video on LinkedIn: the 3 ways to share it .
- All about the LinkedIn video: format, dimension, size, duration & weight .
- How to download a LinkedIn video?
- Live video is coming to LinkedIn with LinkedIn Live!
- When to post on LinkedIn to get as many likes as possible?

Which camera to make video: in conclusion
The best camera is the one you have on you. Because professional life means that the best moments (hot testimonials, meetings, events …) are not necessarily planned. It is important to be able to “unsheathe” your equipment to seize the moment, the one that will not be prepared and which will therefore be more authentic.
So, you have 3 options:
- The professional kit;
- The alternative kit (with which I filmed for years);
- Your smartphone, provided you have a microphone or lapel microphone and one small tripod .
