Content creators and vloggers rejoice, the Sony ZV-1 is a purpose-built compact digital camera specifically designed for those working with the web as the final destination for their photos and videos. Making use of the popular and advanced RX100-series platform, the ZV-1 takes many of the desirable imaging capabilities of these cameras and pairs them with a refined physical design and some distinguishing modes and settings perfect for vlogging and content creation. One of the most distinct differences is the side flip-out 3.0 touchscreen that is perfect for front-facing recording. The body also incorporates directional 3-capsule microphone for improved audio recording and there is a Multi Interface Shoe for attaching a variety of accessories. The ZV-1 is also characterized by its sleek and lightweight design, along with a larger right-hand grip that benefits one-handed recording, a front tally lamp, and a large REC button on the top plate. Beyond physical differences, the ZV-1 also incorporates a series of dedicated imaging functions, notably the Product Showcase Setting, which optimizes focusing speed and transitions between a recognized face and a close-up object. There is also a Background Defocus function, which helps correctly dial-in aperture settings for creating shallow depth of field effects, a Skin Softening function, and a Face Priority Auto-Exposure setting to ensure correct exposures when on camera. Inside, the ZV-1 has some familiar imaging attributes in the form of a 20.1MP 1-type Exmor RS stacked CMOS sensor and BIONZ X image processor, with front-end LSI, which contributes to impressively fast performance along with wide-ranging sensitivity to suit working in a variety of conditions.
