Love the camera.
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great little camera that can do videos beyond two minutes once you change some settings. I don't regret the buy. The only thing is just settings but this is coming from a first time digital camera owner.

Excellent camera and fun to use
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have and have had many cameras. This little ZV-1 is terrific. It has a great lens with a large aperture of 1.8 wide open and that allows me to get terrific high quality photos in almost any light. I am having so much fun with this camera. It locks the focus super fast and has the best tracking features in the industry in my opinion. Sony dominates with capturing action. I carry this camera with me everywhere I go in my man bag.

Small but great for content creators
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great camera for content creators. I love using this camera on a tripod for interviews as i can flip the screen so i can verify we are in frame. Also works on a selfie stick/gimbal. I use an external mic.

Great vlogging & YouTube Camera
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Simply one of the best vlogging cameras in this price range. The various inputs allow for external audio sources so you can get really clean sound. Excellent stabilization and other features. As with most Sony products, keep an extra battery charged and close by. The display can eat the battery life. Oh, and it certainly does take nice still shots!

Sony ZV-1 bought in May 2023
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I would give it 90/100 or 4.5. Great photos and videos for close up or within 10 yards. A newer Samsung or iPhone has a better quality from further away. Good photos with limited light and are better than most phones. I think it's a great camera for $500, NOT $750 as listed!

Great little camera
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The video it shoots is great, and after you learn the interface, taking photos is pretty decent. Could use a software uodate to make it more intuitive and include the use if the touch screen more.

Sony ZV-1 Review
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great little camera for vlogging and videos. I really love the blur effect - which is the main reason for purchasing this specific model. Other than that, all other reviews have sworn by its quality and value for money. Really happy with my purchase.

Great camera for beginners!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I recently decided to start a YouTube channel and once I switched to this camera my video quality increased tremendously. I battery dies fast so I would definitely recommend buying at least another battery. I also heard that if you wear sunglasses and try to use the flip screen then it will go black. Other than those two things, I think this is a great camera for those starting out. :) I mostly use mine for vlogging!

Horrible battery
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The battery is HORRIBLE. I have been using 1080 resolution and the battery lasts me maybe an hour if I'm lucky. The camera and quality has been decent though.
