    Nice review! I am disappointed on the MII. They did address the lens with angle, but then made it shorter and slower. They also properly placed the tripod mount so you can access the battery door and gave USB-C. That said, they are charging more and not giving 4k60, S-Cinetone, or a bigger battery. Not having S-Cinetone makes it a less desirable b-cam if you are using S-Cinetone in higher end Sony. Further, ive already fixed most of the shortcomings of the ZV-1 with a cage (which moves the tripod hole and provides a lot of flexibility. If I had the ZV-1 M2, I would still get a cage) and a wide angle lens. So, its only really important upgrade from my perspective is USB-C. For me, it is definitely not worth upgrading from the ZV-1 to the M2.

    Thanks so much for this video! I just got a zv-1 mark ii, and your video really helped me make my decision. Some people don't like the lack of stabilization and find it expensive, but the camera definitely meets my needs. Great camera for webcam, easy to use with great touchscreen interface, and I like this wide lens.

    @@DiamondFlame45 it doesn't come with SD card but you can get them for pretty cheap. My one issue is that the battery doesn't last long. I got a pack of batteries on Amazon and a charger that charges multiple at once. I also got a "dummy battery" which allows you to plug the camera into a power outlet so you can record indefinitely. I use the camera every now (also as webcam) and it's working great for me.

    The microphone quality is hard to determine as it lacks the bottom end (no base). Maybe the low cut-filter was set to on or filtered in post. As it lacked the bottom end in the video I consider it as a big con.

    Good review. No 60fps and the streaming is only 720p makes it last generation. For the money, I'd expect a camera that would remain contemporary for about 5 years at this $900 price. If they can put the chips et al. into a GoPro to exceed these specs, Sony is just being cheap or planning on a short life to sell another camera in a year or so. I'll wait.

    Even with the improvement, the lens still isn’t wide enough to make this a viable vlogging camera with stabilization turned on which is a must. I would say most people considering this camera to actually vlog would be better served spending half as much on a DJI or GoPro action camera. The only sacrifice would be in low light situations, but you’re getting a wider angle, better stabilization, and seemingly better audio. Possibly better battery life too. Action cam and cell phone camera is the way to go.

    The audio sounds like it's coming out of a can of tuna. Is it camera audio or was something messed up while editing? Sounds like a shotgun mic is a must for this camera. Image quality looks pretty good! With a good monopod /selfie stick the stabilization crop isn't really an issue.

    ZV-E10 is a great alternative to this camera if you want to swap out the lens (it’s a fixed lens on the ZV-1 and ZV-1MII. Stabilization has gotten better on the ZV-1MII and ZV-E1, but all of the ZV cameras can benefit from a gimbal to get the very best stabilization. Built in stabilization and lens stabilization can only get you so far. In terms of vlogging lenses, I really like the 20mm f/1.8 and the new power zoom 16-35mm f/4.
