White3" color touch-screen LCD display
The side-articulating LCD touch-screen makes for easy to compose selfie shots.
Impressive image quality
The ZV-1 ll's compact body is equipped with a large 1.0-type Exmor RS CMOS image sensor developed by Sony. This also includes a DRAM memory chip for ultra-fast data processing of the approximately 20.1 effective megapixels far exceeding that of a typical smartphone.
Frame it all
The wide-angle 18-50mm zoom lens can capture a wide field of view from 18mm, so you can easily fit everyone or everything in the frame to beautiful portraits at 50mm. Whether you're indoors or out, the wide-angle lens turns everyday scenes into dynamic footage.
Capture the world the way you want
An advanced image stabilization mode ensures steady video while moving, even when handheld shooting while walking. This mode combines optical and electronic stabilization methods for more effective results.
High quality imagery
The ZV-1 II packs powerful specs in its compact body, offering impressive image quality. Its large 1.0-type image sensor means it can capture professional-level footage, shooting in XAVC S format up to 30p and in 4K, and up to 120p in Full HD for up to 5x slow motion.
Powerful image stabilization
Shaky footage can ruin the best of vlogs, but the ZV-1 II is built to let you capture great footage even while you're walking and shooting handheld. Active Mode helps to minimize camera blur, giving you steadier shots without the need for any post-shoot editing.
Select the best scene with Shot Mark
By adding a Shot Mark while shooting or replaying a video, you can cut out a 15, 30, or 60-second clip to send straight to your smartphone. Shot Marks also allow you to easily find the scenes you want to use later, cutting down on time searching through footage.
Stand out with just a tap
A Bokeh Switch lets you immediately switch to the maximum aperture setting (f/1.8-4) for isolating your subject using shallow depth of field and bokeh. A built-in, 3-stop ND filter benefits using this mode in bright lighting conditions by controlling overexposure.
Always look your best
Without any special settings, the ZV-1 II accurately captures your skin tone, ensuring a healthy and natural look. Face Priority AE automatically brightens your face so there's no need to worry about lighting. There's also a Soft Skin Effect to adjust your skin smoothness.
Add a dramatic touch
Just tap the screen to turn everyday moments into cinematic imagery, all without post-production editing. With the Cinematic Vlog Setting, the camera automatically shoots in a Cinemascope aspect ratio at 24 fps - the film industry standard.
Focus on you
The ZV-1 II automatically makes sure you always stay in focus with Touch Tracking. It recognizes human faces and eyes, keeping track of the main subject without wandering off. Tap the subject on the screen to activate the feature. Eye AF can even be set to track animal faces and eyes.
Focus on what you want.
Activate Real-time Tracking to follow a subject of your choice. The camera recognizes colors, brightness, and subject distance, as well as facial information to keep track of the subject so you can concentrate on grabbing the best angles.
Shooting grip for easy vlogging
Simpler and more comfortable vlogging with the optional GPVPT2BT wireless shooting grip; enables more stable shots and doubles as a tripod. Zoom lever and recording button are on the grip side - you don't have to stretch around the camera to reach key buttons.
Simple streaming with a single cable
Transform the ZV-1 II into a high-quality web camera just by connecting a compatible device via USB13. The large 1.0-type (1-inch) image sensor and Creative Look presets ensure vibrant visuals.
Simple smartphone connection
Connecting your camera and smartphone has never been easier thanks to the Creators' App mobile application. Data transfers continue in the background even if the smartphone display sleeps or a different app is launched.
