  • Perfect Camera for Content Creators!
Style: Camera only Color: Black
I am absolutely in love with my Sony ZV-1 Digital Camera! As a content creator and vlogger, this camera has become an indispensable tool for capturing high-quality videos and photos. The image and video quality is outstanding, with crisp details and vibrant colors that make my content pop. One of the standout features of this camera is the flip screen, which makes it incredibly easy to frame shots and capture perfect selfies or vlog footage. The touchscreen display is intuitive and responsive, adding to the overall user experience. I also appreciate the built-in microphone, which delivers clear and crisp audio, eliminating the need for external microphones in most situations. The defocus setting is another favorite of mine, allowing me to achieve beautiful background blur and professional-looking shots effortlessly. My only minor gripe is that it would have been nice if the camera came with a battery charger instead of just a USB cable for charging. However, this is a small inconvenience compared to the overall quality and performance of the camera. In summary, the Sony ZV-1 Digital Camera is a game-changer for content creators, vloggers, and YouTubers. It delivers exceptional quality, ease of use, and versatility, making it a must-have tool for anyone serious about creating top-notch content. Highly recommended! ... show more

  • Fantastic option to create family memories, vlogging is ok in most situations
Style: Camera only Color: Black
Let me start out by saying that I've used dozens of cameras over the past few years as a bit of a gear head. I've had full frame DSLRs, full frame mirrorless, APS-C options, micro 4/3's, etc. Most recently I had the Fuji X100V. Having a growing family I realized that while I love taking pictures of my kids growing up, what really captures the interest of everyone is capturing videos. I could take 1,000 pictures from a family trip and the things that the family will want to see is the video, not the pictures. For this I realized that having a more compelling video option was needed. In addition having a 7 year old girl, she's starting to want to make her own videos, which I post to her private YT channel. Pros - Having a compact option with a decently fast lens. The lens could be wider, it could be longer. There's a lot of could haves. Why not ask for a 12-500 mm lens? For what it is, it's a good compromise, has a decent enough range and fast lens, which is needed for a 1" sensor. The 24-200 would've been too slow to shoot indoors without an external light. - The front flip screen. It makes talking head videos easier to shoot, putting it on a tripod and still having a hot/cold shoe for an external mic or a light source is fantastic. - Button layout. Having a record button, having a tally light are great. Cons - I would've loved to see a better use of a touch screen interface. Canon has it right for the most part, Sony could be much better. - I would've loved to have a mode dial and/or more front dials. But given a choice between what we have in the ZV-1 or a larger body/more expensive model, I'm ok with what we have. Things to note No, the stabilization is not the best. On standard it's not great. On active it's better but crops in. This is why I say for certain types of vlogging, like on a tripod or talking head video it's fine. If you're expecting to walk around and talk to yourself, you'll want to invest in a gimbal. No, the battery isn't the best. Luckily they're tiny and you can find plenty of generic options. No, you don't get a charger in the box. Most cameras these days are not shipping with one. No you won't get the ultra thin depth of field from this, it's a 1" sensor, there are limitations. For the price, the size, the features, it's the best option that I've found at the present time. It's not perfect, but any camera enthusiast will tell you that there isn't. It's about weighing the positives and the negatives and find the one with the most plusses and the least amount of negatives for your needs. Think about it, if the perfect camera existed, you'd have no compelling reason to upgrade to the next model, so in a way you have to think that manufacturers intentionally withhold a little here and a little there. ... show more

  • Best vlog camera
Style: Camera only Color: Black
I watched a lot of videos on this camera before ordering, and everyone said it was the best of the best for vlogging specially. I make my daily blogs on this camera, I LOVE the auto settings because it corrects automatically to whatever lighting you need in any setting. Perfect for vlogs. I love the product showcase, instantly focusing on what I want it to focus on. The flip out screen is in a great position, I love the big record button, and the versatility of this camera. I’m a huge SONY fan already and this camera made me an even bigger one. THE ONLY CON ABOUT THIS CAMERA (in my opinion) is the battery life. This thing loses battery so quickly, so just make sure to charge it frequently and check the battery before going out to film. Otherwise, it’s definitely worth the money. I take it with me everywhere. It fits easily into my small purse, and it’s easy to use if you’re a beginner. Love this camera! ... show more

  • Perfect for a new or seasoned vlogger! Dream camera!
Style: Camera only Color: Black
This camera packs a punch in its compact size. I use this camera practically every day. My YouTube videos are now so much better than before. I get regular comments about the high quality and questions about what camera I use. I cannot wait to tell them it is the Sony ZV-1 and tell them all about it! The wind guard on the microphone is a special touch I like. Prior to this purchase, I filmed an outdoor video on a slightly breezy day. I was appalled at the quality of that recording sound due to the wind. But with the ZV-1 that is never an issue! One of the things that drew me to the ZV-1 is the flip-out video screen. I wanted a quality camera that I could see the screen on while I am recording. There is nothing worse than recording a video and thinking you are in the frame only to realize you are not. This eliminates that issue all together. It has ports for an external microphone, HDMI, and a micro USB. This allows for a ton of versatility. You can use a micro USB cord to charge the camera or you can buy an optional battery charger. I even bought a couple of backup batteries to keep the footage flowing even on lengthy trips. I paired the ZV-1 with the shooting grip and I will never go back. This baby is super versatile. It lets me click record, snap a picture, zoom in, and more all while keeping the focus on me and not turning the camera around. This allows complete one-handed usage. In addition, it makes a great little on the go tripod too. All of this fits into a small case making it ultra-portable. I love my ZV-1! ... show more
