Great Vlogging Camera
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great little camera with a ton of features. There is a small learning curve to make full use of all the features available. Best to go on YouTube to learn how to use it. Will also need a smartphone to post pics and video online/ social media.

Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I just wanted a point and shoot camera and this had more than I needed but does all I need it to. I’m still working through the bells and whistles but it’s a good little camera for the money.

Hmmm
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love the camera but I feel like I bought one that was returned and not fully checked upon someone returning it. The camera had no plastic nor tape to protect it in the box. Luckily it works good.

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.

Buy an iPhone instead
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My iPhone takes better pictures and video and the battery lasts longer. Was really disappointed, especially with the zoom(it’s a joke). What’s worse is the app it comes with to transfer its a joke, especially when you you transfer to a phone it reduces the quality significantly.
