Sony ZV-1 User Reviews and Ratings

This is my dream camera. I haven't bought it till now. But I will. I am working on it. Basically I am a technology freak, gadgets freak. So after giving so much time, asking so many people, researching so many times, I have come to this conclusion that I will buy this camera. I will definitely post another review with pictures after I buy it. If you are also searching for a vlogging camera then please go for it. It is beginner friendly.

Very nice product.... satisfied ...but with only one battery in new pack

Most of the things in this camera is fantastic, one thing I hate about this camera is the battery life. You will need to carry many batteries if you want to get through the day.

Waiting from the day of the launch. Really an amazing camera. Recently started a vlogging channel and it's better than gopro and my osmo action. Thanks sony.

Wonderful camera. Used for live streaming and vlogging. it's perfect.

Best

Best vlogging camera for professional vloggers. And the feature are really awesome.

Iam a youtuber and this camera makes my vlogging easier. The in built microphone record your voice clearly even in crowd. The 4k vlogging camera is perfect for content creation. we can also use the flip screen and video eye AF. It is very easy to share videos. the quality is wonderful. This camera is perfect for you.

to tell the truth this product is not for professional shooting like really professional but excellent other wise if you are a beginner or a short video on the go producer it is the bomb!!!!

Best thing happened in 2020

Must have for videos and photos...No phone can match this camera clarity

Very nice camera for vloggers who needs a point and shoot camera and doesn?t wanna carry a DSLR. It enables you to shoot in 4k however battery life is poor. That means you need to carry 2-5 extra batteries if you?re a serious vlogger. However you can also buy 2-3000mah power bank/battery pack. Don?t blame the poor battery life cuz camera is so compact hence you have to compromise. 1hour of 4k shooting is good enough and if you need more carry extra batteries.Sony never failed to impress me with pic and video quality. It?s a very good camera. Go for it, it?s handy, small.

Wonderful camera for purpose

Best camera you can buy as a content creator!I always confused between Canon m50 or Sony ZV1. Atleast choose the ZV1. Because of these resons,1. Great Autofocus ( Very very useful. Sony cameras are very reliable)2. Quality (Sony smashed Canon)3. Less croped, usable 4k recording ( As compared to m50)4. Low light capability (Much much better than m50)5. Value for money ( I calculted overall cost to get the same things from M50, and it cost more than ZV1)But, yes there have two major drawbacks,1. Battery (Yes you'll get more battery life in m50 compared to ZV1)2. 24mm lens ( I think 16mm is the best lens for vlogging and you can buy one for M50. For ZV1, yes it's 24mm is wide but not as much as you need for vlogging.)Conclusion - If you need Quality, reliability and compactability just like me, this is the camera you need.No other camera on the market can beat it in this price point.

now the price reduced by another 10000/-

Good camera but not a perfect camera.Slightly over priced and image stabilization is not good. If you want to see full review with video samples,you can see on Dr Kalpana singh YouTube channel.

No doubt this camera is producing some super amazing video and pictures. Sony has lived upto his reputation and name with this.There are few things I wish they need to improve on immediate effect in next version.1) Microphone needs improvement so much noise comes in have to buy additional accessories to cut down noise2) Battery 🔋 can't even hold a month if not using. Once I charge the device to full capacity it doesn't last a month on stand by. In case of emergency shoot it is not a good companion3) Bag to hold camera and gear4) Price if possible as I had to spend 10000 to get a microphone5) Little rugged and waterproof so that I can ditch my go pro and carry this all alone

I like the product

I got this camera after seeing rave reviews in YouTube. However, this review will focus on the shortcomings only. I discovered after 10 days of use.1. Poor battery life : does not last even 3 hours of use. However, this is compensated by the extra battery provided. But the way battery compartment is designed does no good to the purpose. you need to unscrew from mount to change The battery. So you will need to break your schedule in case u are shooting something continuous.2. Error Error - the dreaded E:62:10 error appeared in my camera after few days of use. Although I did not face any difficulty in shooting. It did make my experience bitter. Could not resolve though the solutions available on internet. The usual switch on of. Change battery etc does not work and the error message is a part of the display now.3. Mic : even tough the mic is a strong one. It does not do well to reduce background noise.4. Charging time : 150 mins. This really restricts ur ability to shoot and u need to plan ahead if you are a serious vlogger.5. Not weather proof. : the manual says it is not weather proof and small amounts of water may damage the internal circuits. I mean why? It restricts your ability to take outdoor shoot and a vlogger would not take this.Apart from the above. The camera delivers what it promises in the review videos.Update :My lens assembly was faulty. Thankfully Sony service centre was open and as directed by the Sony representative, I gave the camera for repair. It took 14 days to get the part from abroad and complete the repairs. Now, the camera is working fine. No issues as such.Update 2: Please go through the settings and understand each setting before shooting. There are a lot of helpful YouTube videos on this camera.Update 3 : The camera worked fine for 2 days after repairs. As of now it is still in the repair shop. 2 months after purchase the camera is 28 days.(and counting) in repair shop. Even after 2 trips of repair shop the error does not go away. Now it is a permanent display in my camera.

Okay..... But need to Study more.

Everything thing is good,camera is very easy to use,quality is very good no problem,but the man problem is battery , battery is very poor only 1 hr backup for normal use ,and take 3 to 4 hr for charging it's very frustrating to change 4 hr and use only one hr.......

i bought this sony zv1 few weeks ago. i have not been using it much since i am down with covid 19. However, on few indoor usage there is a line scratch on the lens. I checked out several youtube video on this camera to find out if this is normal. But nothing of this sort is found on any other camera. the scratch seems to have gotten when the lens pushes out and pulls in when the camera is turn on and off. So, how do i exchange this camera for a new one? Thank you. Please help

Sony claims that we can record up to 45 minutes, but that's not true. Battery is getting exhausted in max 20 minutes of usage.

Too expensive for the type of usage it supports. Better to look for other products. The previous alpha series is still something good to buy.

I got the used camera the sony zv1 again after replacement and after initiating the refund request, I get to know that, they comment, wrong serial number found on the product so no pickup happened. It is sad that, seller like this are prone to cheat with customer. If they feel, this is the old aged India, they are wrong and We know how to protect our rights.We are celebrating KYC - Know your constitution so we know our righhts as well.

It's just a digital camera. Not good for a video blogging in india. Also have an issue in the focus. Sometimes object goes out and get delayed for correct it back

1. Video stabilization is not working2. Battery is draining up within 1hrs of video recording.3. Noise cancellation and Audio quality is poor.4. not at all value for money.Don't waste your hard-earned money on this product.
