    great for beginners like me, both photo and video quality are pretty good overall once you figure out the setting with no real need for post-editing (color-wise), and small enough to fit in your pocket. GREAT battery for shooting long video. Setbacks: zoom is (obviously) limited, no ability to change lenses, and the rolling shutter is painfully present even with the slightest movement, so unless you're only using a tri-pod, can't recommend this one for on the move/run-n-gun at all.

    I wanted to find an affordable vlogging camera, so I could stop using my phone, and that’s what I got. The video is clear and the sound is good. My only problem is that the battery dies quickly.

    ZV1F vs ZV1

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    ZV-1F is a newer release and has a USB-C The old ZV-1 model still has micro-USB The dimensions are the not same. ZV-1F has a full touch menu ZV1 only had a touch focus (not for navigating menu). This is marketed as "For Vloggers". It's an entry level more than a pro level, like the RX100 (for more heavy pro users), with its limitations. If you just want a simple "vlogging" camera where you hit record and some light manual adjustments, this camera is for you. Battery is NP-BX1 (same with most Sony compact cameras) I've been a Canon photographer, but I think Sony is more advanced and innovative with their camera and features. The "Product Showcase Set" feature is really cool and works well; if you do product videos, it can rack focus back and forth smoothly of you and the object in front, like holding a pencil.
