I dropped my Canon G7X into a glass of lemonade at the start of my last 30 day roadrip in my new Corvette C8. So, when I returned, I picked this camera up used for 300 bucks, virtually brand new. Thanks for the great video....liked and subscribed. RAW is not necessary unless you really need to push the limits, Every photo I've sold in the past ten years was edited from JPGs.

I've been using this for on the go vlogging and love it! It's much better quality than my iPhone 14 Pro and might lighter than my sony a7iv and sony 20mm 1.8 G lens :)

Great review! So excited to get this camera. Exactly what I need right now!

The background defocus of the Sony is actually completely different from the iPhones portrait mode. Portrait mode is done on software while the background defocus is a real bokeh from the lens and will look much more natural. It's basically just forcing f2.0 if enabled and can be used on any camera in a similar way.

Jep, you are absolutely right! Its the Force of F2.0 "whatever it takes". In the ZV1 is the same Mode better, cause of the f.18 aparture. Today the ZV1f is on amazone prime sale for 429 Euro instead of 520. i bought it and now im waiting for tommorrow :-D

Thank you for good review. I wanted a camera as webcam and content creation mainly indoor. Should I go for ZV 1F or ZV E10 or wait for new upgraded version of ZV E10 may be with full touch interface.

I'd like to see you compare the main back camera of the iPhone for vlogging. It's not so hard to use with an apple watch or mirror.

the background defocus blur of the zv1f isn't a digital blur .. its basically changing the aperture from auto to fixed f/2.0 ... you can notice this on dark environments especially if you set your shutter and iso as the same. what the camera does is shift to the widest aperture end. no software trickery involved

So nice of you

for all-around video purpose, i recommend the zv-e10. but i will be saving for this zv-1f for selfie-style and talking-head vlogging since it's smaller and quicker to set-up and use. but for b-rolls, there is a noticeable jittery effect. but for selfie and talking head vlogging, this (zv-1f) i think is the best for the budget (again, not for b-rolls though).

what camera youre using shooting this video?

I recently purchased the Sony ZV1F. I need some help with being able to adjust settings and recover audio in my files. My wife vlogged our trip through Switzerland but while replaying it it shows up in fast forward 50fps video. Please let me know if there are tips to recover.

How does this camera compare to the Canon eos m200??

Important distinction, for those shopping these days when the newer iPhones have 48MP sensors - Sensor resolution does not equate to resolved detail. The most a cellphone camera can conceivable resolve is around 20MP, any higher, it's just wasted pixels. The only area it helps is digital zoom where the lack of aliasing helps to extract more detail from a small area of the sensor. Still not a crazy high resolution like it claims to be, but it's better than a straight crop. Dedicated cameras like the ZV1F often have lenses capable of resolving atleast the sensor resolution, possibly more depending on how over engineered it is.

It Looks familiar, but before the newest model of Upcoming camcorder is the 8K HandyCam

do i really need the lens just to video blogging?

sony night vlog test, preferred sony for video + audio

What about streaming??

Audio on the Sony is pretty impressive.

This camera aims at weight, but the weight of the tripod is so heavy, I would only use the 160g smartphone tripod, do you think the tripod can hold the zv-1f?

Excellent information it's Sony for me! I'm starting my channel and some clogging. Thanks!

Why Sony removed from this new model the effective stabilization of the Zv-1 and why it removed phase detection, opting only for contrast detection, and finally, why Sony betting on a 20mm fixed lens, got worse your aperture, from f/1.8 that the Zv-1 had to f/2 this Zv-1 F ? Why didn't they set it to an aperture of f/1.4 since it's now a fixed focal length?
