Product details

The ZV-1F is the perfect camera for getting started with vlogging. Whether social media or YouTube, every video is enhanced with great image and audio quality. With the ZV-1F you won't miss a single detail, the group selfie is just as visible as the expansive background. Thanks to the large 20 mm wide-angle lens, a wider field of view is captured than with the human eye. Show yourself from your best side, no matter where you are filming. The ZV-1F automatically adjusts the brightness to illuminate your face, even in situations where lighting conditions change, such as backlighting or when entering a room.

The Sony ZV-1F is a true specialist. For vloggers who just want to put a camera on their face and go, the camera is ideal. For everyone else, there are better things. For example, Sony's own ZV-1. The upgrade to a top smartphone is comparatively small, but the price is also low. Besides its main purpose, this makes the camera exciting for other niche applications, such as a cheap second camera.

  • PositiveAs a vlogger or general-purpose video camera, the Sony ZV-1F does its job very well.
  • PositivePhotos and videos of the small Sony are very good
  • PositiveIts uncomplicated operation helps beginners to achieve high-quality pictures and films.
  • PositiveThe sound recording system delivers astonishingly good sound quality
  • NegativeHowever, photographers have to live with limitations and should go for the manufacturer's RX100 models.

The Sony ZV-1F offers high-quality videos, but only a few functions specifically suited to photography. A viewfinder, raw storage and a built-in flash, or the possibility of triggering a flash via the accessory shoe, are particularly missed by image-makers.
