    Overheating in 4k

    For carrying around and taking short video its great! It's very portable, light weight and takes great 4k footage. Unfortunately it overheats when streaming in 4k. Most of the time I can get 25 minutes or so, but recently its been as little as 20 minutes. I've changed the Hi temp shutoff without any changes.

    Overheating Issues

    Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I ended up returning it for one main reason: anything more than a few minutes of 4K footage resulted in it overheating and shutting down. It did take amazing photos but I needed it for a vlog and it couldn’t cut it. I experimented with different settings but couldn’t get it to stay on and not overheat.

      Sony commitment to customer satisfaction is our top priority. We do apologize that the ZV1 didn't meet your standards. If the Auto Power OFF Temp. setting was set to High, you should get more recording time. Also please note, high-quality movie recording and high-speed continuous shooting require large amounts of power. Therefore, if you continue to shoot, the temperature inside the camera will rise, especially that of the image sensor. Thank you for the review. Sony_US

    Great camera only down side is the battery life. It lasts about an hour or an hour and a half if you are working with it on and off with video and photos.
