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.

Came in like new with original packaging and got $600 off just because the packaging was a little ripped. Not ONE sign of use anywhere. Sensor was spotless, screen spotless, body spotless, even had the sticker still on it, zero overheating issues, records like a charm. I can’t believe I am able save so much money with the open box method!!! Great seller, definitely would recommend! ... show more

    • Was unsure at first, but really loving this camera.
Color: White Style: Camera Body
Was hesitant because of all the overheating talk. But it's definitely a keeper for me. I already own an a7s 3 and FX3 so I'm familiar with the sensor. I'm not using this as a vlog camera, instead I wanted the same quality in a smaller form factor for travel and lighter run and gun setup. The AI is a plus but marginally better than what we already had in terms of autofocus. I've had pretty great results with the older object tracking already. Dynamic active stabilization was pretty clutch a few times when tracking forward/back. Less reliable for horizontal/pan type movements. Overheating, I used it over the weekend in 80 degree weather in a real shoot from 12pm till 4pm, mostly 4k 24p and sprinkled in some 4k 60p and did not encounter any overheating the way I would normally use it. I was able to get it to overheat in 4k 60p in a controlled setting, recording around 30 minutes. I also updated to 4k 120p and that overheated around 15 minutes. Again doesn't bother me for my use case. I also tested in 4k 24p and the battery drained before overheating, so I could use this as a 3rd camera long format recordings like a podcast. The built-in mic is convenient, but not that great, however if you know how to post process audio you can get pretty good results. Only thing I wish it had was an evf, even if it's a lower res version. I also got the white one... which was the only one ready to ship in time for my shoot, didn't want this color either but it's starting to grow on me. ... 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

    • 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

    • Great camera in a small package.
Color: White Style: Camera Body
This has been a great video camera for me. Everything has been fine except for one single hiccup. Doing a long interview (around 50 minutes) 4k 30fps in a room around 85 degrees Fahrenheit with no air movement is too much. It did overheat. The camera was new to me at the time, so I didn't know how hard I could push it. I heard of the possible overheating from watching many YouTube videos, so, thankfully, I did have a cell phone recording at the same time, so I didn't lose any of the interview. I turned it back on immediately and was blowing on the back of the camera for the last 10-15 minutes of the interview to keep it cooled off. Honestly, even the smallest breeze does seem to be enough to keep it cooled off. Other than that one time I've never had any issue. It is a fantastic camera, and everything I've done with it looks absolutely amazing. ... show more

    • The ZV-E1 is a low light ISO god, just get a fan
Color: Black Style: Camera Body
I use the Sony ZV-E1 as a webcam/mirror. I leave it on all day (but turn it off at night), and this is possible without any overheating problems thanks to a 3rd party fan attachment. You must buy one of these fans. Otherwise, the ZV-E1 will overheat constantly. This camera performs excellently in low light. In a dark room with just my computer monitors and a dim key light lighting me, I get satisfying exposure even with 1/60 shutter speed and a F2.8 lens. It needs like 12,800 to 25,600 ISO for it, but for webcam use, the picture still looks great. An F1.8 lens needs like 6400 to 12,800 ISO. An F1.4 lens needs around 2000-8000 ISO. (These might be overestimates too because I think I got these numbers while using 0 EV Compensation, but I discovered that I need to apply -0.7 EV Compensation to get the right brightness in my dark room. This means less ISO is required.) A month ago, I didn't know anything about cameras, and I was super anxious about picking the right one. Well, a month later I feel like I got the right one. It's an absolute beast in low light. ... show more

    • Beautiful Video but overheats
Color: Black Style: Camera Body
Great sensor in a mediocre package. It overheats really fast. The internal mic sounds great when it’s AI has it pointed in the right direction, which is about 70% of the time. The dynamic active stabilization is almost good enough not to need a gimbal… almost. I wish I’d bought the A7siii or A7iv instead. ... show more
