Sony announces the new vlog camera ZV-1F packed with creative power, easy-to-use vlogging functions, intuitive touchscreen operability, advanced connectivity, and eco-friendly features. The pocket-size camera has been optimised for vlogging with Sony’s latest technology to make content stand out.
The ZV-1F has been designed to let the subject shine in any scene with an ultra-wide 20mm prime lens for optimum selfie shooting and wide field of view to capture more background. The vlog camera also offers background bokeh in both stills and video to further highlight the subject or create a softer look.
Skin tone is optimised for both video and stills with a ‘Soft Skin Effect’ option that smooths and reduces wrinkles when shooting video and creates a natural skin tone effect for stills. Face Priority AE automatically adjusts the brightness when shooting so that faces can be captured with optimal brightness, even in situations where the light changes.
The ZV-1F also boasts high precision focusing and Eye AF for both humans and animals which allows the autofocus to fix tenaciously on the face and eyes without getting diverted by other subjects. You can easily change subjects via the camera’s touchscreen.
What’s more, when shooting video, image stabilisation is available in Active Mode (electronic) to ensure footage is steady and smooth when walking.
The newly available Creative Look function gives you several preset options to create desired atmospheres in both stills and video with differences in tone, brightness, colour depth and more. A total of 10 modes are available to enhance creativity and allows you to share content immediately with no need for editing.
The ZV-1F also features S&Q mode to shoot in both slow motion at 5 x slower speed and quick motion at 60 x faster hyper lapse speed to achieve a desired effect.
In addition to stills and video, high-quality sound is vital to capture perfect content. A Directional 3-Capsule Mic and wind screen provide clear voice recording and reduced noise in windy outdoor conditions.
Weighing only approx. 256g it is compact and lightweight enough for everyday use and can be carried everywhere. It also features a Vari-Angle LCD touch screen with features and settings changed by touch, including the ability to zoom, so operation is instinctive.
The new vlog camera includes a Bokeh Switch button to allow you to quickly switch between background bokeh when you want to highlight the face and without, even whilst recording video. It also features a Product Showcase setting to allow users to seamlessly shift focus between face and products – perfect for reviews.
The ZV-1F also features a self-timer and recording lamp to make video content even easier to capture.
The new vlog camera has been optimised for use with a smartphone. Sony’s new smartphone app Imaging Edge Mobile Plus allows you to connect to the camera via Bluetooth or Wi-Fi and transfer images and video. Content captured can be easily transferred to a smartphone and then uploaded to social platforms. You can even mark shots for posting on social using shot marks during shooting or on the camera. Additionally, you can cut out and transfer specific 15, 30, or 60 second marked clips to your smartphone and post directly to social without the need to edit the length to suit the platform.
The Imaging Edge Mobile Plus app also allows you to control many of the camera’s settings. It can also operate the ZV-1F remotely and display battery level and remaining storage capacity.
You can even use the ZV-1F as a high-quality live-streaming device. With an appropriate video conference application or similar software, the ZV-1F can function as a high-performance web camera when connected to a computer or smartphone via USB.
The ZV-1F is compatible with the GP-VPT2BT Shooting Grip with Wireless Remote Commander which offers cable-free control of zoom, recording and more, and expands into a mini-tripod for stable hands-free shots. An external microphone can also be easily attached to the accessory shoe for clear sound recording.
The ZV-1F was designed with environmentally friendly features and technology to ensure a sustainable future. Recycled materials including SORPLAS are used in both the camera body and bundled accessories like the newly developed wind screen that have been adapted to maintain performance.
Plant-based non-woven fabrics are used for product bags to reduce plastic packaging.
The new ZV-1F will be available at selected retail shops and online stores from late October 2022.
