    The camera quality is what I’m looking over. I’m not a blogger, but I love the nostalgia of my dad walking around with his camcorder catching special moments in our lives or with family ! The sound is pretty good with the build in mic, and does have a plug in for wired or wireless mics.

    Great entry-level vlogging camera. The color is crisp and sound is clear. The only thing I wish is for the lens to be interchangeable but this is still a great beginner option.

    I have its bigger brother ZV-1F and ZV-E10 and they are expensive than this little one but when it come to photo and video capabilities it is as close as if not the samw as the other two. I love the video quality coming out of this camera with the 20mm equivalent wide angle lens as its great for vlogging
