Description

The ZV-E1 is Sony's first vlog camera with a Full-frame 12.1 MP1 Exmor R image sensor that is optimized for 4K and delivers 15+ stops of latitude, low noise, high sensitivity, and gorgeous full-frame bokeh. It can record 4K movies with direct pixel readout and 10-bitdepth and 4:2:2 color sampling using Long GOP or All Intra compression, making it possible to grade for fuller, more natural gradations while generally providing greater editing freedom. Cinematic Vlog Setting provides an intuitive way to create scenes that look like feature movies. By choosing a Look, Mood and AF transition speed, anyone can create cinematic vlog footage that ideally matches the scene and creative intent. The Cinematic Vlog Setting includes "Look" options such as S-Cinetone that can enhance skin tones, "Mood" options that can emphasize specific colours, and the AF transition speed that determines how quickly autofocus will switch between subjects. New features such as AI-based Auto Framing, Framing Stabilizer, and Multiple Face Recognition join the popular features enjoyed in other Sony ZV cameras, like Product Showcase setting and Background Bokeh Control, to delivery Sony's most powerful and refined ILC camera for content creators who desire to record and create content of the highest quality.

Amazing
Color: Black Style: with 28-60mm Lens
This camera is over criticized and underrated. The people who talk bad about it never owned one and only reiterated what online reviewers said without actually using it. This camera has taken me through travels in the deserts of Texas, whole day music video shoots, and several sets. Not once has it overheated. This camera's power is underestimated not only with it's beautiful sensor, but also the features it has like it's mic (the best onboard mic I've had on a camera) the ai auto framing, the variable shutter, and the stabilization. Also, it's form factor is perfect because you can make it as small or big as you want with a cage. This camera has changed my life, not only in film-making, but how I see the world, and how I can use this tool to show it. I heard a lot of reviews online about the camera overheating, but I never had that issue. Honestly, even if it did, the beauty of this camera's sensor beats everything, from the dual native ISO to the amazing SLog 3 profile. I love the small form factor that helps me when traveling, documenting, and even gives more flexibilities on film sets. I would definitely recommend this camera to anyone who is interested in leveling up their videos and photos. ... show more

Overheating makes this camera an absolute joke.
Color: Black Style: with 28-60mm Lens
I received this camera today. I don't shoot professionally, and I know cameras at this price bracket are probably overkill for what I use them for. That being said, this camera is an absolute joke. I immediately charged it, put in an SD card, and started taking some video. I took less than 25 minutes of video total. I shot maybe 15 of those minutes on 4k60, literally the only real selling point on this camera in my opinion. I then maybe shot 10 minutes of 4k24 in cinematic mode or whatever. The camera actually froze and lost a video in cinematic mode after recording 1 minute. It overheated in 4k60 in about 7 minutes. I shot hand held in an ambient temperature of 71 degrees. I know some reviewers got videos far longer without overheating, and maybe some of that had to do with using a tripod, but this is an absolute joke. I had originally planned on putting this in a cage, given the fact the camera itself has the ergonomics of a power brick, probably similar thermal regulation as well, and this might solve the issue. I don't really want to risk that though, and this is a ridiculous issue at this price point. Aside from that, on a more subjective level, the colors really are not that good and the interface sucks. I will probably end up getting the S5IIX when it comes out and just deal with the 1.5 crop in 4k60. I really am taken back by how terrible my experience with this camera was. ... show more

Excellent idea for a camera, some shortcomings
Color: Black Style: with 28-60mm Lens
The camera is excellent and the video quality amazing. It is only 12mp but that may be all you need for online sharing. The AI features are great if you are a content creator, probably useless for some video focused pros. The camera is not for pros though so keep that in mind. I will alert you all though about something that happened with my unit. After 4 weeks of use, the LCD screen started to detach from the frame at the bottom left corner. Although the screen was working correctly, I contacted Sony support immediately and they asked me to send the camera in for repair under warranty. For this price, I find that issue unacceptable. Not sure what's going on with Sony quality but this may be a sign they may be cutting corners in order to get these "compact" bodies manufactured. To make matters worse, the parts are backordered so I am now looking at 2-3 weeks without a camera. So there you have it, a $2,685.35 camera sitting at Sony Repairs waiting for parts and a loyal Sony customer without options. I would have returned the camera to Amazon instead but sadly I am out of the return window. ... show more

Best camera I've ever owned
Color: Black Style: with 28-60mm Lens
I’ve been running the ZV-E1 as my primary studio and field rig, and it's hands-down the most capable compact full-frame camera I’ve used. The video I capture makes me look like a much better photographer than I am. Almost everything on this camera is automatic or has an auto feature which is great for people who are just learning. This is hand down one of my favorite purchases ever. Truly my dream camera. ... show more
