Sony ZV-1

The Sony ZV-1 is one of the best vlogger cameras on the market. It's compact, easy-to-use and feature packed.


Immaculate images

Any decent vlogger needs better than decent images and the Sony ZV-1 Vlog Camera really delivers in this department. That's thanks to a 20.1MP 1.0-type Exmor RS CMOS image sensor, wide-aperture lens, and a BIONZ X image processing engine for highly detailed images. To prove you're no amateur, you can achieve professional background bokeh in low-light environments.


A smooth operator

Thanks to AI technology, the Sony ZV-1's auto focus sticks to your face when you need it, but the Fast Hybrid AF system lets you quickly focus on another subject, allowing for a smooth transition that is the mark of the more professional vlogger. 


Anywhere, any conditions

Thanks to outstanding image stabilisation, the ZV-1 allows for smooth footage while you're on the move. Meanwhile, with automatic exposure you can easily adapt to lighting changes and keep the images looking sharp and bright. 


The sound is as good as the footage

Audio quality is just as important as video when it comes to vlogging and the Sony ZV-1 is brilliant in this department as well. It comes with a directional 3-capsule microphone and a wind screen which gives you optimum sound no matter where you're recording.


Share your footage with ease

What's the point of being a vlogger if the rest of the world can't see what you've recorded? Thanks to a quick download of the Imaging Edge mobile app, the Sony ZV-1 Camera lets you easily transfer images to your compatible smartphone, edit them, and upload to your social channels of choice.

More like an iPhone 13S. The generational upgrades for the iPhone 14 are limited to a few subtle changes. At the same time, however, the base price climbs to 800 USD, while the only true innovation happens inside the iPhone 14 Pro series.

excellent OLED display, dust- and waterproof, fast Wi-Fi, wide range of supported frequencies, great camera, very fast performance, good battery life

display limited to 60 Hz, charging rate limited to 20 watts, no macro lens, wide notch

Sony ZV-1 review

The ZV-1 is a solid option for vloggers and photographers looking for a compact camera with a fast lens and great video and still image quality. Its novel microphone and video-friendly ergonomics are big plusses, but we want to see Sony introduce a more modern touch interface and update their menus to appeal to a wider audience. Overall, whether you're a dedicated video maker or just want an easy-to-use camera for good quality clips, the ZV-1 is worth a look.

The ZV-1 is Sony’s first RX100-series camera designed specifically for vlogging. It does that job well thanks to a lightweight body, built-in high-quality microphone, flip-out display, best-in-class autofocus and excellent image quality.

Small and lightweight; Fast autofocus with reliable face/eye tracking; Built-in high-quality microphone; Fully articulating screen; Good video quality

Lens needs to be wider; No headphone port; Limited touch screen functions

Sony ZV-1 Digital Camera ZV1 review

Sony's latest camera is nimble, lightweight and powerful. With its advanced processing capabilities, fast auto focus and real-time tracking combined with the impressively clear audio capture and the useful flip-out screen, it really is a great option for vloggers.

180-degree flip-out screen; Video processing is impressive; Fast autofocus and real-time tracking; Great sound recording potential

Battery life could be better; No viewfinder; Battery/SD card door is inconvenient for tripod use; Short zoom range

Sony ZV-1 Digital Camera ZV1 review

The Sony ZV-1 is the best compact vlogging camera around, though it's not quite perfect, and some of the key differences might incline you to save up a little more for a Sony RX100-series camera instead.

Fantastic image quality from sensor; Fantastic image quality from lens; Best-in-class autofocus performance; Numerous features perfectly suited for vlogging; Ultra-portable; Good battery life; for its size; Affordable compared to similar alternatives

Limited zoom range compared to RX100 VII; No Electronic Viewfinder (EVF); Active SteadyShot crops image and introduces more rolling shutter; Touchscreen not as functional as it could be

Sony ZV-1 review

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 might find its image stabilization a slight let-down, and it has a few familiar usability quirks, but the ZV-1 remains the best video all-rounder in its weight class.

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

Average video stabilization; Touchscreen still very limited; Micro USB rather than USB-C
