Versatile camera, but the price could be lower
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.ZV-1 is a pretty versatile camera for me. However, as it is basically a video-centric RX100 V, the MSRP should be marked a bit lower than it is now. The mode button is fine, but not as easy to use as the traditional mode selector.

Best quality
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Beautiful quality camera. This was recommended to me for a start of a YouTube channel and I absolutely love it! Even if it’s not for “vlogging” it’s amazing for photos or regular videos.

Slightly better than iphone 12 vlogging
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Photos are lackluster (not as good as my iphone 12), but video stabilization is great (has software and hardware stabilization). Works for what it is, and is a slight step up from iphone 12 vlogging. Not cheap though
I would recommend this to a friendGreat small camera
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Perfect for vlogging camera. Very light weight and compact. The only issue I have is that I have the vlogging handle and in order to switch the memory card or battery that has to be removed to access that area.

New favorite camera
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have some really great cameras but this one has quickly become my favorite. I use it for my YouTube videos and for my Zoom calls. The nice Bokeh you get from pushing one button is so easy and looks so good.

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.

Works for now
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.for me, its a learning curve...but i just click and shoot and then download, so it works for what I need... but i do a lot of cooking and craft stuff, trying to find a way to hold this camera downward is awkward
I would recommend this to a friendTricky but great
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am using this for vlogging and it is amazing! My only complaint is that you can’t attach lenses which is fine for vlogging but as a camera camera could be better. Takes really clear footage and photos though
