    Best VLOG camera I've owned. I was wondering if I'd made a mistake since I own a high end phone with a great camera. But quality is literally night and day difference. I promise, you won't have any regrets. Love the video and audio quality for a beginner.

    I have yet still to learn every feature that comes with it but i feel in love with it once receiving it. I would HIGHLY recommend buying the bundle with the Sony - Vlogger Accessory Kit since you're likely to get it anyway in the future.

    As a digital camera, hands down way better than a cell phone (compared to iphone 11 regular or Galaxy S10+). As a video recorder, it's really good. Quality is great. it can do 60 frames per second in 1080P, and sound isn't bad, though I did do an external mic.

    This camera is amazing. The low light functionality is exactly what I wanted with a light weight body. I had been a DSLR user for years, and I didn't expect to downgrade to a point & shoot. Yet, the ZV-1 has become my favorite for certain times.

    Amazing video quality and camera features. I think the software that sony provides with the camera could be better and more efficient, and the battery life blows. Other than that, great camera.

    In my honest opinion for me it is a great camera to work with.If you are a content creator or a photographer this camera is really good it’s the size of a phone so on the gone film and photos will really benefit.

    In overall performance, this unit gets 5 stars from me. My only reason for giving it 4 stars is how hot the unit gets when shooting in 4K. Batteries don’t really give a warning before they go out. If you don’t mind the heat, get extra batteries and have fun, it’s a great camera.

      High-quality movie recording, including 4k, and high-speed continuous shooting does require large amounts of power. The remaining battery indicator appears on the screen and should show you if the battery is exhausted. Please don't hesitate to contact us if you need further assistance. We appreciate your feedback and will feed it back to our team. Thank you for the review! Sony_US

    if you’d ask me the first two years, I had this TV I would’ve given it five stars. Great picture, very good. sound without a sound bar, easy to use settings and screen setup. However, the last year and a half it has had a mind of its own. Best Buy replace the motherboard once, but once again it is, spontaneously turning off and freezing
