    A very lightweight camera that packs a mean punch. The video quality is amazing! It is used for vlogs and has made the editing process super easy.

    Great little camera. Simple and fun to use. The form is great. I have many other Sony cameras. The zv-1 gives a great aesthetic with the smaller sensor size.
