    This was a Bday present for my daughter who is really into photography and her boyfriend does some professional photography as well. It’s a great all around camera that takes good outside photos and video and inside as well under lower light conditions. My daughter is very pleased with the quality of the images and that it’s compact enough so she doesn’t always have to lug around her large digital SLR all the time now. It would have been nice if it came with an SD card but outside of that, no complaints so far.

    Nice But One Big Negative

    Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    First off, I returned it and purchased an Sony a6400. My usage is mainly video and the ZV-1 was nice but limited because you can’t change the lens. Also, for me the big negative was not being able to get at the memory card without removing it from the base when it is mounted on a tripod. That alone was enough to return it because it is a big workflow killer. It has lots of great features. Takes great video if you can get the lighting right. It is small and light weight, the swing out screen is nice and can be flipped to protect the screen when it your pocket. No viewfinder.

    Out of the box, very easy to use. However, menu can be confusing. Watch some YouTube videos to learn more about its settings. Microphone is better than iPhone with option to add an external mic. One negative would be the battery door. When using a tripod, battery can't be opened. As a result, be sure to purchase a cage which gives an option for battery door to be opened. Best feature—using USB cable to livestream! Be sure to update the camera's firmware to 2.0. Have fun!!!

    Overall this was a good camera, however it is not the best if you would like to get into both videography AND photography. I upgraded to the ZV-E10 in order to fulfill the photography aspect given the E mount system that is available. It is not a full frame sensor but it is a very good APS-C sensor (hopefully I am correct)

    Love this camera the 1080p quality on this thing blows up really nice on bigger screens looks like 4k. The 4k is also nice but I don't use it as much since 1080p looks nice and saves on data. It is super nice and portable. The battery lasts a decent time. I've used it to record multiple takes for about 3 hrs? before needed to change the battery. Not bad for the tiny battery. The mic is also really good. Lot's of settings and autofocus is fire. I do recommend.
