Sony ZV-1

The Sony ZV-1 is one of the best vlogger cameras on the market. It's compact, easy-to-use and feature packed.


Immaculate images

Any decent vlogger needs better than decent images and the Sony ZV-1 Vlog Camera really delivers in this department. That's thanks to a 20.1MP 1.0-type Exmor RS CMOS image sensor, wide-aperture lens, and a BIONZ X image processing engine for highly detailed images. To prove you're no amateur, you can achieve professional background bokeh in low-light environments.


A smooth operator

Thanks to AI technology, the Sony ZV-1's auto focus sticks to your face when you need it, but the Fast Hybrid AF system lets you quickly focus on another subject, allowing for a smooth transition that is the mark of the more professional vlogger. 


Anywhere, any conditions

Thanks to outstanding image stabilisation, the ZV-1 allows for smooth footage while you're on the move. Meanwhile, with automatic exposure you can easily adapt to lighting changes and keep the images looking sharp and bright. 


The sound is as good as the footage

Audio quality is just as important as video when it comes to vlogging and the Sony ZV-1 is brilliant in this department as well. It comes with a directional 3-capsule microphone and a wind screen which gives you optimum sound no matter where you're recording.


Share your footage with ease

What's the point of being a vlogger if the rest of the world can't see what you've recorded? Thanks to a quick download of the Imaging Edge mobile app, the Sony ZV-1 Camera lets you easily transfer images to your compatible smartphone, edit them, and upload to your social channels of choice.

Small and lightweight; Fast autofocus with reliable face/eye tracking; Built-in high-quality microphone; Fully articulating screen; Good video quality

Lens needs to be wider; No headphone port; Limited touch screen functions

If you’re looking for a compact all-in-one vlogging camera, then look no further than the Sony ZV-1. While the device might not be up to scratch for indoor filming, it’s an absolute beast when taken outside, thanks to its unbelievable mic quality and precise autofocus.

Sony ZV-1 Digital Camera ZV1 review

The Sony ZV-1 is the best compact vlogging camera around, though it's not quite perfect, and some of the key differences might incline you to save up a little more for a Sony RX100-series camera instead.

Fantastic image quality from sensor; Fantastic image quality from lens; Best-in-class autofocus performance; Numerous features perfectly suited for vlogging; Ultra-portable; Good battery life; for its size; Affordable compared to similar alternatives

Limited zoom range compared to RX100 VII; No Electronic Viewfinder (EVF); Active SteadyShot crops image and introduces more rolling shutter; Touchscreen not as functional as it could be

Sony ZV-1 Digital Camera ZV1 review

The Sony ZV-1 is a beginner-friendly camera perfect for on the go shooting and vlogging. While some of the features are borderline gimmicks, the core vlogging features are solid.
