Failed at 1 Month
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have been a Canon and Panasonic camera owner for years. Their cameras just keep on going and going. I wanted a more updated camera that was a point and shoot so I gave the Sony ZV-1 a shot. I ordered it a month ago online for a family vacation this week. I got it out Saturday and set it up and all seemed ok. I tried it today and it is dead. I called Sony and they wanted me to send it back to them for repair. They suggested that I contact Bestbuy for a replacement. I called Bestbuy and guess what. The said that they couldn't help me and want me to contact Sony back. Bestbuy said that I could bring it into a store but if they repair it they will charge me. I have been a Bestbuy credit card holder for 30+ years. To conclude do not buy this Sony camera if you want a camera that you can depend on. Poor product quality and poor customer service. Bestbuy customer service is no better.

Good basic camera for streaming.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this primarily to use as a webcam so that I wouldn't need a HDMI capture card. It's been a consistent performer. I've also been using it for some.basic shooting and the results have been good. The menus are a bit cumbersome, but with some practice they're usable.

Awesome camera.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love my zv-1!! Great quality camera for pictures and videos. Small and compact. It can fit in your pocket. Battery life is a downside but you can buy extra batteries. Great starter camera if your thinking about streaming or creating content for YouTube. Fair price.

BEST Vlogger Cam
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After reviewing several cameras I opted to buy this one for my vlogging project on YouTube. It’s size, weight and design makes the perfect combination for a point and shoot camera. The image quality is amazing and price is fare. Not friendly for photography but capable of. Highly satisfied!
I would recommend this to a friendZV-1 great for low light
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Wow... wonderful video vlog camera... great low light capability. Lots of options... Not great on a rollercoaster because Sony stabilization does not compare to GoPro... but other than that single issue, I think you will love the video 4K quality! Fyi, menu's are not touchscreen.

Another level
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great camera for just about everything. Pictures look nice, and videos are at another level. I really like how compact it is, this means you could practically carry it anywhere. It could also be used as a webcam, which is really cool. Great buy…

Micro A7siii
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The a7siii micro. The AF is faster than the zve10 and the rolling shutter is as low as the a7siii. The 1080 120p is amazing and the image and color in general holds up with the a7siii with some very minor tweaks.

Not sure
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Gave it 3 starts since i might buy again. Many factors may contribute to my conclusion maybe it was the Camera maybe it was my macbook pro 2020 regardless This camera dose not come with a charger so if you are new to video be ready to make investments in Charging ports, Batteries, HDMI to sub or some kinda cord that will allow a high performance data transfer to and from device for live stream. because the in box HDMi is super short so basically useless. Mine would not connect to my laptop idk why it was such a hassle I wanted to like it this product sadly just way too much to add on in addition for the price. I had to return but i might buy it again in the future and see if it was just a bad model i got that day.
