Good for videos- not picture's
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Doesn’t have a flash (which I should have done more research on) but this camera is perfect for recording videos. Capturing pictures- not so much. I returned this camera and ordered the Canon G7X. They’re in the same price range and imo the canon takes on full action for digital pictures.

Disappointed!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My Dad and I purchased this for our YouTube channel as we saw numerous websites list this as the #1 vlog camera right now. I had incredibly high hopes, and I was very impressed with the quality of the camera along with its features until the camera overheated in less than 20 minutes. This is appalling! For a camera made marketed towards vloggers, this is a tremendous fault and definitely not a quality item for vloggers to utilize. we returned it.

Posted .Hi NikkiH
Sony commitment to customer satisfaction is our top priority.
Thank you for sharing your experience with the ZV1 camera. We apologize if did not meet your expectations as it overheated in less than 20 minutes. There are suggestions to help you use the camera longer before it shuts down automatically to preserve itself from damages due to overheating. One is setting the Auto Power OFF Temp. function to High, and then using a faster memory card. It's sad to hear that you have to return the camera because of this, but if you would want to try again with our cameras, you can contact us at 239-245-6360 for any inquiries. Thank you again for sharing your experience.

Great optics, poor screen.
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've been a Canon user for ever, but this seems to have all the features I wanted in a great little package. I loved this little monster for about 2 weeks of use. Crisp photos, great zoom, nice video, but then the screen went out. Sony customer care were friendly and chatty and ultimately useless. Turn it on, turn it off to discharge, battery in, battery out, full reset, partial reset, now I'm fed up. $700 paper weight. Back to Canon I go.

Not good Choice
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Just received this camera yesterday and it overheated on me twice. It keep dying due to heat.. even i can't shoot more 5 than mins, it keep showing alert/warning on the Screen and they turn off. Another issue is horrible battery life, I fully charged lastnight but it won’t stay more 30 min of shoot.. Another issue is it keep toggle change the Auto Focus, i assume the custom Product showcase C2 is causing this.. when i shooting my birds inside the cage the bird cage is focusing on the Video not the birds.. I turned off Product Showcase set off but still it change automatically

Do Not Recommend
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This camera really disappointed me. The battery life is almost non existent. It is very difficult to change the batter once a tripod is on it. Lightning and stability is very poor. Almost all of my videos are unusable.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from SonyListens
Posted .Sony commitment to customer satisfaction is our top priority. We do apologize for your experience. Please keep in mind because its a smaller camera the battery is smaller and there is only so much room between the battery door and the tripod mount. We would gladly like to troubleshoot any video issues you are having. Unfortunately we cannot provide a direct email or phone number for customer support as of now. Please find Sony Electronic’s Support information: Go to sony.com > click on “Support” > scroll down click on “Contact Support” > click on [Product Category] > click on “Email Question”
Disappointed
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Battery light did not work and would not hold a charge. Had it worked, I would have found out you cannot record more than 30 minutes with this camera. You can find this info on YouTube and online. Absolute rip off at $750.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from SonyListens
Posted .Sony's commitment to customer satisfaction is our top priority. We do apologize that the ZV1 didn't meet your standards. 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. In such cases, the camera will turn off automatically because the surface of the camera is heated to a high temperature or the high temperature affects the quality of the images or the internal mechanism of the camera. If you are still having issues with the battery light, please contact us directly so we can further assist you. Thank you for your honest review! -Glenn
battery life is garbage
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Never had a camera that dies so quickly. It will say 2 bars and be connected to a charger and still die 10 minutes in. So disappointing for the price.
