Designed for creators to love
No experience is necessary to capture great looking videos. The ZV-1 is designed to capture amazing videos of you and your world, without any tricky setup.

Beautiful and natural skin tones for everyone
The ZV-1 makes all skin colours look vibrant, natural and healthy. There’s also an optional Soft Skin Effect mode for a smoother look.

Background bokeh for a professional touch
The large 1.0-type CMOS sensor and wide-aperture lens deliver images with professional background bokeh, as well as clear detail even in challenging low-light conditions.

Let the camera catch your eye
With AI2 technology you can rely on the autofocus sticking firmly to your face and eyes without wandering to other subjects. When you want to focus on another subject, just touch it on the screen and let the camera do the focusing.

Fast and precise focus transitions
The ZV-1’s Fast Hybrid AF system lets you simply and quickly switch focus from a face to the background, for more stylistic and watchable videos.

Pro-quality bokeh control with one touch
By just pushing the Bokeh switch, you can switch background bokeh on and off – no need for complex manual adjustments. Now it’s easy to simply select a professional-looking defocused background, or keep the entire scene in focus, with just the press of a button.

Product Showcase Setting, ideal for product review videos
Product Showcase Setting allows you to switch with just a single button press to settings that are perfect for product reviews. It widens the angle of view and switches the focus to the object instantly, so you don't need to wait for the focus to shift, or place your hand behind the product to shift the focus to it3.

Shoot great video, wherever you go
The ZV-1 is built to get great shots while you’re moving. With amazing image stabilisation, you can shoot smooth video when walking and, as the lighting changes shadow to sun, or outdoors to in, the automatic exposure (AE) tracks faces and makes sure they always appear well-lit.

Designed for even better audio
You can capture clear vocals even when shooting in a crowd. The camera’s unique directional 3-capsule mic gathers clear sound from in front of the camera, ideal for movie shooting.

Wind screen for outdoor shooting
The supplied wind screen reduces wind noise for worry-free outdoor shooting. As well as achieving premium sound quality, that also means you’ll spend less time re-shooting and editing footage affected by wind noise.

Use your favourite mic for the sound you want
With a microphone jack and MI shoe, you can pick from your choice of mics, to get exactly the sound you want.

Recreate the world in your image
The ZV-1 is designed to bring together simplicity and power, opening up creative opportunities as wide as your imagination.

Dynamic video through slow motion4
Make every movement more cinematic with Super Slow Motion video, capturing the most fleeting of moments for playback at up to 40x slower than real time.

Time-lapse for that cinematic effect
Interval shooting mode5 automatically captures sequences of images from 1 – 60 seconds apart, from which cinematic time lapse videos can be created on a PC, where clouds flow past like water and whole days pass in seconds.

Take amazing pictures as well as video
The ZV-1 has everything you need to capture images that really shine in your timeline and video thumbnails. The pin-sharp ZEISS® 24-70mm6 lens focuses light to a large 1.0-type Exmor RS™ CMOS image sensor, with it all coming together in the powerful BIONZ X™ image processor.

Express yourself with creative effects
Picture Effects and Creative Styles allow for near-limitless visual possibilities – from simple monochrome and partial colour effects, right through to complex miniature effects.

Shoot then share easily
There’s no longer a need to compromise your images with your smartphone camera just to share content quickly. The ZV-1 delivers both stunning images and seamless connectivity, for better and easier posting.

6/10

Verdict: Rather than updating the already excellent RX100 series, Sony's vlogging compact makes a lot of sense. You get a one-inch sensor, a fully-articulating screen and a range of very video-friendly features. If you want a pocket-friendly vlogging model this is...

Pros
  • Small, lightweight and compact
  • Fully articulating screen
  • Video-friendly specs
  • Cheaper than RX100 series
Cons
  • Image stabilisation could be better
  • Can't use the touchscreen for everything

8/10

Verdict: The ZV-1 is a strong all-rounder that punches well outside its size class. With solid stills and excellent video features, it should be on the radar of every social content creator. Sony Vlog camera ZV-1 | Digital Camera (Vari-angle Screen for Vlogging, 4K...

Pros
  • Small and lightweight
  • Great video quality
  • Excellent autofocus performance
Cons
  • Limited physical controls
  • Disappointing battery life
  • Not quite wide-angle enough with SteadyShot activated

8/10

Verdict: The Sony ZV-1 is a huge leap forward in merging the accessibility of a smartphone and the proficiency of a dedicated camera into one device. It's not perfect, and we hope to see its overheating issues and convoluted menus resolved in its eventual successo...

Pros
  • Unbelievable mic quality
  • Top-tier autofocus
  • Instant bokeh mode
Cons
  • Can overheat indoors
  • Convoluted menus that are a pain to use
  • Micro-USB rather than USB-C

10/10

Verdict: The Sony ZV-1's articulating screen really does set it apart from its main rival, the Canon G7 X Mk III. It feels robust, and the fact opening the screen out powers the camera from cold is a neat little time-saving party trick. Footage captured on the vl...

Pros
  • Great stills, video, and audio
  • ND filter
  • No record time limit
Cons
  • Touch screen limitations
  • Battery/card inaccessible if mounted
  • Narrow field-of-view

9/10

Verdict: The Sony ZV-1 is the best compact vlogging camera you can buy. Its mix of a bright lens, superb autofocus and design tweaks like the side-flipping screen make it a powerful pocket video option with few peers. Those seeking super-smooth walking footage mig...

Pros
  • Class-leading autofocus
  • Bright lens for lovely video bokeh
  • Hotshoe and 3.5mm mic port
  • Side-flipping screen ideal for video
  • Fits in your pocket
Cons
  • Average video stabilization
  • Touchscreen still very limited
  • Micro USB rather than USB-C

9/10

Verdict: The way we see it, the ZV-1 could fulfil two needs. It's a great step up in video and audio quality for those who would normally use the front-facing selfie camera on their smartphone. It's also a great, compact secondary camera for those who shoot more p...

Pros
  • 180-degree flip-out screen
  • Video processing is impressive
  • Fast autofocus and real-time tracking
  • Great sound recording potential
Cons
  • Battery life could be better
  • No viewfinder
  • Battery/SD card door is inconvenient for tripod use
  • Short zoom range
