Didn't hold a charge
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Wanted to love this camera as it came highly recommended but unfortunately the camera I received wasn't in working order and I needed an immediate replacement so I went with a different camera. Heard great things about this one so I'm sure if you try it and get a good one you may like it.

Not for Everyone
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I cant recommend this camera unless you really want to take selfies. The worst thing is that the lens cannot be changed. Not the best for a variety shooter or a family camera.

Terrible camera
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Terrible camera, always overheats, sent in for repairs during warranty for same issue and manufacture did a micky mouse repair till the warranty expired and it is doing the same thing again. Save your money and buy something else because this camera was supposed to be the best but it’s not! Purchased myself, paid for myself, my honest opinion.

BAD SERVICE
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very very unhappy. I bought this and have made 3 attempts to get my money back only to get to your store and be told it’s curbside pickup only and no returns “until Thursday”, and then again - “sorry try tomorrow”. We had snow in seattle but the roads have been drivable and your website has said Open Each day. I even called on my way each day and was told you were open! I’m cutting up my credit card and no longer planning on shipping with your company

Good but…
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love my camera. The only downfall is when I stream for over 5 hours, it gets too hot and turns off

Posted .We're happy to hear you love your ZV1. Sony's commitment to customer satisfaction is our top priority. 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. We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. Thank you for choosing Sony! - Glenn

Best if filming in 5-minute segments
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Recorded video is clear, with crisp audio capture to boot. Camera is easy to use with straightforward controls. The only downside is the issue with the camera overheating and shutting off or stopping recording without warning. You can only capture about 5 minute segments of video. This really hurts the usefulness, obviously.
