Great value for the price
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This camera is really good for flogging and dinner time and seeing yourself flogging I didn’t enjoy the ability to not remove the camera lens. I thought I was purchasing a different camera and purchased this one. I ended up opening this two months after purchasing so I couldn’t return the us the only problem I have with this version of the camera. Everything else is crisp clean easy to transfer to my cellular device. That’s why I love Sony

Overpriced Flawed Camera
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The camera is likely great for a beginning vlogger as it does have some pretty nice quality pictures for up close shots. However, anything I tried to take a picture of that wasn’t static from a distance the auto focus would freak out and the picture quality would look mediocre. The Tripod mount for some reason was also way off the side and made it more difficult to balance with my tripod compared to my other cameras that have it on the center. Perhaps I just got a dud or maybe it needed a software update that came out later after I returned it but at the time I got it was $400+ up-to-date, and had all these issues. I can’t really say that it was worth it. I think this could be great within $250-$300 but with the issues it had, I wouldn’t recommend it unless you’re solely looking into for vlogging.

Not my fav but still good
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Perfect for beginners. The only downfall is no flash but an external flash is always an option which is what I used.

Great budget friendly beginner camera!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've really liked using the Sony ZV-1F so far. There seems to be a lot of opinions about it out there on the internet but as someone who wanted a good camera that took photos and videos but doesn't know too much about cameras themselves, it's a perfect fit. The set up is pretty easy and there aren't so many settings that you'll be overwhelmed. There's a button for recording a video and a button for taking a still image without you having to switch back and forth between the two, which is such a nice feature. It also comes with a windmuff. Other cameras were just way too big and complicated for my needs, so this seems to be the best of both worlds - in my budget and exactly what I needed as a beginner (though I don't imagine I will ever buy a bigger camera).

||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great camera for everyday videos. The battery life is good, but some extra batteries and a separate charger help significantly when filming all day. Make sure you buy an SD card when you buy this as it does not come with one.
