    I was a bit skeptical about the camera since it's the cheapest of the ZV line, however I was pleasantly surprised and would highly recommend this camera! The video quality and stabilization is great, and having a touch screen conpared to previous models is so nice. I don't recommended this for pictures, but it can do the job if needed

    It was a tough decision between the Canon G7 X & this Sony ZV-1F camera. I went with the Sony because it was cheaper. Although this camera does take nice images, I wish it was able to take RAW images as well. I will be returning this back, and purchasing the Canon G7 X.

    This camera is great for beginners. If you download the Sony creators app you can control it from your phone. I’ve had a little trouble uploading photos to my phone from the camera because the connection isn’t always great. Otherwise it is an easy camera to use, especially in auto-shoot mode.
