Zv1f does well
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good video quality for its class — It shoots sharp, vibrant 4K/30 fps video that many find “lovely.” The color, contrast and detail are decent out of camera.

Good Camera.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was initially skeptical about buying this after recording my first video. The picture is way better than the GoPro. I gave it four stars instead five because this camera has a lens cover and the lens cover sometimes pops off if you don't instead it right. The camera is easy to you and the touch screen is ver responsive.

Good product!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I only give it a 4 star because it doesn’t have a flash option, it is a vlog camera so it may not be as needed for vlogging but it wasn’t what I wanted. It is small and very easy to carry around.

Beginner Vlogger
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm very happy with the Sony ZV-1f as a beginner vlogger. It's easy to use and I love the auto intelligence functions, they just make editing so much easier! The only negative is that I bought the basic package on sale so I have to buy a lot of accessories, including a new wind muff because the one that came with the camera isn't great quality. Once I get these accessories, I'll be a pretty happy camper!!

Mostly OK--A Moderate Jump from Smartphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I used the ZV-1F before returning it. It has a lovely small size and no extending barrel, which keeps it very tough and reassuringly solid under rugged use. I wish the lens had a built in cap because it's annoying to have to take the cap off whenever I want to use it, but I could just slap a UV filter over the front element and use it like that. In any case, the images were fine, but nothing to write home about. The sensor captures images that really suffer in low light. Since it doesn't take raw photos, there's very little I can do in Capture One to fix poor lighting conditions. The screen on the back makes it difficult to monitor shooting because it has very low resolution (921K dots). Video says it's 4K, but I never got 4K videos that matched the detail and quality of my better cameras even in good lighting conditions. I think the lens needs some refining, despite the lovely Zeiss text on the front. The contrast detection autofocus was fine, but wasn't very confidence inspiring. There were a lot of pulsations during video. The rolling shutter was also disappointing for such a small sensor. What is nice is that it offers color science that is better than what smartphones currently offer. Overall, I love the idea of a fixed 20mm compact camera, but I wish it had a few more premium features like a slide-in viewfinder, a slightly sharper lens with less vignetting, a more competent autofocus system, a couple more controls, an automatically retracting lens cap, and actually nice sounding built-in microphones. Fixed lens compact cameras don't have to be bargain basement cameras. For now, I'll stick to my Powershot G1 X Mark III.
