Color
BlackExmor R CMOS sensor
The ZV-E10 II features Sony's most advanced sensor technology in an APS-C camera with a back-illuminated Exmor R CMOS image sensor with approximately 26 megapixels(1). Compared to other cameras, the image sensor of the ZV-E10 II is approximately ten times bigger than the average smartphone sensor and three times bigger than a premium 1-type (1-inch) sensor found in compact cameras, allowing for beautiful, professional-looking images with high resolution and intricate detail.
The latest BIONZ XR image processing engine
The latest BIONZ XR image processing engine delivers extraordinary detail and sharpness and packs a standard ISO range(3) that extends from 100 to 32000. Thanks to the high-speed readout, 5.6K oversampling compresses a vast amount of information into stunning 4K 60p2 footage (QFHD: 3840 x 2160).
Interchangeable lenses to capture your vision
From the G Master series, which blends breathtaking resolution with exquisite bokeh, to the G Lens series with first-class image quality, the ZV-E10 II is compatible with a wide range of E-mount lenses from Sony. The ZV-E10 II lens kit comes with the versatile E PZ 16-50mm F3.5-5.6 OSS II zoom lens.
Create your look in camera
The Creative Look function makes it simple to create expressive moods for stills and movies in-camera, offering 10 presets that can be used as they are or customized. Try the My Image Style function(12) for further expressive versatility.
Cinematic expression
Cinematic Vlog Setting(4) provides an intuitive way to create cinematic footage without having to deal with complex camera settings. Take advantage of the five "Looks" such as S-Cinetone that enhances skin tones, or "Moods"(4) that emphasize specific colors to create cinematic footage to match the scene and your vision.
High-density 759-point focal plane phase detection AF (13)
The latest BIONZ XR image processing engine and optimized algorithms produce notably improved autofocus performance. A high-density array of 759 focal plane phase-detection AF points(13) ensures consistently smooth, precise focus.
Precise subject tracking with Real-time Eye AF
Real-time Eye AF recognizes—with high precision—the faces and eyes of humans, as well as the eyes of animals and birds, for consistently accurate and reliable focus. Real-time Tracking ensures that focus is maintained on the subject as it moves around in the frame.
Clear, beautiful skin tones
The camera consistently depicts colors and textures of human skin no matter the lighting. With upgraded gradation rendering capabilities, it captures better looking skin tones and highlight roll-off in portraits, while skin tones are independently optimized for stills and movies.
Capture those fleeting moments
With up to 60 fps(2) in 4K and 120 fps(2) capture in Full HD, you can record stunning motion sequences using the S&Q mode(8) at 5x slow motion (HD 24p playback). Time-lapse sequences can be created in-camera and the exposure interval can be set from 1 second to 60 seconds(9). Continuous still shooting with the camera's electronic shutter is possible at up to 11 fps(10) with full AF/AE tracking.
Stable handheld shooting
Active Mode(6) electronic image stabilization employs a precision gyroscope and advanced algorithm to accurately measure and compensate for camera shake, providing highly effective stabilization without sacrificing mobility, even when shooting 4K. With compatible lenses, breathing compensation (14) automatically adjusts for minor angle-of-view shifts when the lens focus changes, delivering distraction-free, rack focusing.
Intelligent 3-capsule microphone
An advanced directional 3-capsule microphone offers excellent pickup and noise reduction performance, making it easier than ever to record clear, high-quality audio. Select Auto or choose from Front, Rear, or All Directions settings to match a variety of recording situations and environments.
Enhanced audio for shooting and editing
The ZV-E10 II is supplied with a windscreen to significantly reduce noise when shooting in outdoor situations. For more versatile audio capture, digital audio interfaces are supported by the camera's Multi Interface (Ml) Shoe, enabling direct transfer of high-quality digital audio with minimal degradation to the camera from external microphones, such as the optional ECM series.
4K 60p (2)/ 10-bit 4:2:2 All-Intra
The ZV-E10 II supports a range of recording formats, including 10-bit 4:2:2 video and All-Intra compression at up to 4K 60p (2) . Metadata can be imported, enabling efficient post-production in software like Catalyst Browse, Catalyst Prepare / Plugin and Master Cut.
S-Log3 gamma for extra wide dynamic range
The wide dynamic range of S-Log3 recording can bring out the best in captured footage, allowing powerful post processing flexibility for truly refined movie imagery.
Vertical format supported
The layout of the shooting information shown on the display automatically switches to match horizontal or vertical orientations, seamlessly matching your needs in any situation. Easily shoot for any social media format.
Touch operation for vertical, horizontal, or selfie shots
A vari-angle LCD monitor facilitates shooting from just about any angle. Swiping in from the left or right edge of the shooting display reveals touch icons that allow quick changes to the shooting mode and more. The function (Fn) menu can be displayed by swiping up on the monitor.
C1 (Custom 1) and Background Defocus
The C1 (Custom 1) button can be assigned to a frequently used function for quick one-touch access. For instance, its default setting Background Defocus allows you to easily and instantly increase the amount background blur to emphasize a main subject.
Customization for efficient content creation
The Product Showcase button makes it easy to shoot product videos by smoothly switching focus from a face to a product. A quick menu of frequently used functions can be assigned to the Fn (Function) button. In viewing mode, the Smartphone Transfer (Send to Smartphone) button calls up the display for transferring images to a smartphone(11).
Live streaming(7) and simple sharing
