- General
- Brand: Sony
- Model Number: ILCZVE10/B
- Product Name: Alpha ZV-E10 Mirrorless Vlog Camera - Body Only
- Color: Black
- Product Set: Body Only
- Camera Model Family: Sony Alpha ZV-E10
- Digital Camera Type: Mirrorless Camera Body Only
- Imaging
- Image Sensor Type: CMOS (CCD and CMOS are the two main technologies used in image sensors. CCD, the older of the two types, turns analog light signals into digital pixels. This conversion happens without distortion, resulting in high-quality images. Newer CMOS sensors use transistors at each pixel to move electrical charges. CMOS sensors are typically less expensive, but also require more light to create distortion-free images.)
- Image Sensor Size: APS-C (22.2 x 14.8 mm)
- Total Pixels: 25 megapixels (Generally, the more pixels, the higher the image resolution and the finer the detail that can be seen.)
- Image Resolution (Display): 6000 x 4000 (Refers to the number of pixels, both horizontally and vertically, used to either capture an image or display it. The higher the resolution the finer the image details.)
- Zoom Capability: false (This function allows for magnification of the subject.)
- Digital Zoom: 1x (A digital zoom is accomplished electronically, with no adjustment of the camera's optics, and no optical resolution gained in the process. The existing data is not enhanced or added to, merely displayed at a lower resolution, thereby giving an illusion of an enlarged image.)
- In-Camera Image Stabilization: true (This feature helps reduce image blurring from camera motion. In-camera stabilization means the image sensor itself moves to counteract detected motion.)
- Low Light/High Sensitivity: true (High sensitivity digital imaging devices are designed to work in low light conditions to produce a high dynamic range image.)

The ZV-E10 features a large sensor with E-mount interchangeable lens options for a wide selection of lenses, flip-out vari-angle LCD, advanced audio options and features specifically designed for vlogging.
- 3" LCD Screen: A flip-out, vari-angle touch LCD makes framing and vlogging easy
- 24MP APSC Sensor: The ZV-E10 features a 24.2-megapixel APS-C Exmor CMOS sensor that produces high-quality imagery with high-sensitivity, detailed texture depiction and beautiful natural bokeh
- ISO: 100-32,000 (expanded 50-51,200 in stills)
- Burst Speed: 11fps continuous shooting
- AF Points: Fast-hybrid autofocus capabilities with 425 phase-detection and 425 contrast-detection AF points
- 4K video with great detail: The ZV-E10 delivers extremely detailed and crisp 4K from direct pixel readout and no pixel binning. Using the full width of the 24.2MP sensor, it oversamples roughly the equivalent of 6k to produce highly detailed 4K video.
- Easy background blur control: The Background Defocus features lets you simply press a single button to turn background blurring (bokeh) on and off. A defocused background highlights you or your subject, while having everything in focus is great for showing a location or setting.
- Precise focus transitions for smooth-looking product reviews: With the press of a button, you can activate the ZV-E10’s Product Showcase Setting. When activated, when you hold a product in front of the camera the focus will shift to that object, then back to your face when product moves out of frame
- Stay brightly lit wherever you go: Even when lighting conditions change, the ZV-E10 makes sure that you'll always be brightly lit. From direct sunlight and backlit angles to shadows and dimly lit interior corners, the camera detects the subject's face and automatically handles changes in brightness.
- Designed for clear voice recording: Equipped with a built-in Directional 3-Capsule Mic, the ZV-E10 records voices clearly even in crowded settings. It's optimized to capture voices in front of the camera with fewer distracting ambient sounds, perfect for vlogging use.
- Easy sound monitoring: The ZV-E10 features a standard 3.5mm headphone output so you can connect a set of headphones to monitor whether the audio is being properly recorded.
- Live-stream setup is easy: With a single cable, the ZV-E10 can be used as an online communication tool, taking advantage of its large sensor and built-in mic.

If you have any questions feel free to contact us at Sony's General Consumer Support: 239-245-6360. Thank you for choosing Sony! - Edward (4/29/2025) Sony Social Support
A: It takes great pictures but it is marketed for video. I bought it for both. The biggest drawback for taking photos is the lack for a view finder.
Q: What battery does this camera take?
A: It uses the older style Sony Alpha battery camera. So for example, my 10 year old Sony Alpha battery fits this camera as does the battery charger. You can pick up extra inexpensive batteries for this camera without any problem.
Q: Do Minalta lenses fit this camera?
A: Only with a "dumb" adapter that has no autofocus capabilities. The adapters are relatively inexpensive to buy.
Q: Would recording in 4k 60 mbs instead of 100 mbs be less read out work on the sensor?
A: Hi Mdmale, Sony's commitment to customer satisfaction is our top priority. The readout work is the same for both settings on the sensor. However, higher bit rate settings will use more processing power than the lower ones. Thank you so much for your question. And thank you for choosing Sony.
Q: What canon lenses are compatible with this new sony camera?
A: You can find "dumb" and autofocus adapters for Cannon lenses. Do a search for them. I don't have any Cannon lenses so I can't comment directly. I do have a dumb adapter for my old Sony lenses and it works as expected but just has no autofocus capabilities.

Great Substitute Camera for Full Frame Cameras
At first i was skeptical on getting the ZV-E10 since the Mark ii version came out, but when i saw some youtube videos and saw that the video quality was better than the Mark ii i decided to buy. I have not regretted since and it has become my go to camera for traveling and a great substitute for my A7 IV.

Awesome little camera
Very high quality camera for the price acutely downgrade from Sony a7iii and can compare in some areas with that camera but obviously not as good in low light as a full frame camera. Would definitely recommend for a beginner camera!
