The ZV-1 shoots in 4K up to 30p and Full HD up to 120p and features a 24-70mm equivalent F1.8-2.8 lens. 

The ZV-1 is a small camera, just 2.4 by 4.2 by 1.7 inches (HWD) and 10.4 ounces. Its lens doesn't completely retract into the body—it juts out a little bit—but it's compact enough for most pockets....

Apr 19, 2021 ·  Sony ZV-1 review: Design and controls The Sony ZV-1 looks very much like the RX100 VII, and in fact, Sony says the sensor and processor come from that camera. However, Sony redesigned many other...

There’s a case to be made that, if Sony genuinely wanted to attract the smartphone crowd, the ZV-1 would need to feel as portable and as lightweight as a smartphone – within reason of course. The sight of bulky camera kits and elephant trunk lenses can be enough to send millennials running (myself included), so before a discussion about features could even take place, Sony would have to nail the design. Well, it’s safe to say they’ve done it. Despite its focus on video capture, the ZV-1 has more in common, design-wise, with the Sony RX series. While not quite as small as Sony’s compact cameras however, the ZV-1 made my portable Canon M50 suddenly seem a lot larger by comparison. At 10.5 x 4.4 x 6 cm, the ZV-1 can easily be placed in a pocket or a small camera bag, and you won’t get tired holding it at arm’s length. Despite its premium features, the ZV-1’s grip is actually made of plastic and while it might not look like the most elegant option, it still did the job of keeping the ca... 

Jul 22, 2020 ·  The ZV-1 digital camera may share the same CMOS sensor as the RX100 series, but it still has great performance. This Sony camera has superb image quality and in normal and low light conditions and ... 

When considering the Sony ZV-1 it’s important to understand exactly who it is for. In a world of Instagram Stories, YouTube and TikTok, Sony has created a camera that is designed to appeal to creators who want more quality and flexibility than they would get from shooting with a smartphone or action camera. The aim has been to produce a camera that can shoot video clips of high quality, with little fuss, with all the photo features of the RX100 series so that users can still take those amazing travel photos for Instagram. Side by side the ZV-1 looks like a slightly bloated version of the RX100; it is a millimetre or two larger in every dimension, which accentuates the rounded edges of the camera. Hold the ZV-1 and another major change comes apparent - it has a plastic, or polycarbonate, body, as opposed to the all metal design of the RX100. Again, I would imagine this has been done to keep the cost of the camera down, but in hand the body seems solid; all the components fit very nic... 

Left: Sony ZV-1, right: Sony RX100 V. Source: bhphotovideo.com In fact, in terms of hardware, the ZV-1 largely coincides with the RX100 series. The camera uses a 24-70mm equivalent f / 1.8-2.8 zoom lens and a 1-inch 20-megapixel CMOS sensor from the RX100 V , however this is complemented by AF enhancements from the Mark VII. On the other hand, the controls and the way you work with the camera are quite different. There is no control ring around the lens and the key layout is completely different. It is also worth noting that unlike the RX100 series, Sony does not use Cyber-shot branding for this camera, and the official model name is DCZV-1, unlike DSC, which stands for digital stills camera. The camera also uses the same NP-BX1 battery as the RX100.

Later in the product cycle and, in particular, when the replacement model is about to... 

May 26, 2020 ·  The Sony ZV-1 gains a side-hinged, fully articulated screen. Another significant change is found at the back, where Sony has used a side-hinged fully articulated screen instead of a tilt-only unit. It adds little to the camera’s size: in fact at 105.5 x 60 x 43.5mm, the ZV-1 is just 4mm wider and 2.5mm thicker than the similarly-spec’d RX100 V. 

May 26, 2020 ·  The ZV-1 is a solid option for vloggers and photographers looking for a compact camera with a fast lens and great video and still image quality.

Oct 01, 2020 ·  Sony ZV-1 camera: Features If one place where Sony ZV-1 cameras absolutely shines is in the image and video quality.

Dec 03, 2020 ·  The A7S cameras are the most video-centric cameras and the Sony A7S III is the long-awaited update to the A7S II. Like previous A7S models, the Sony A7S III has a full-frame sensor with 12.1 million effective pixels. Keeping the resolution down benefits its low-light capability by keeping noise levels down. 

Sep 16, 2020 ·  The new video-centric Sony A7S III represents a comprehensive upgrade from its five-year-old predecessor. Sony's full-frame mirrorless camera is aimed squarely at filmmakers, but it is also a highly capable low-light and action shooter for photography provided the limited 12.1 megapixel resolution doesn't put you off. 

Jul 28, 2020 ·  The Sony A7S III is a high-end full-frame mirrorless camera aimed at pro videographers and low light imaging.

Apr 13, 2021 ·  The Sony A7S III — a video-focused full-frame multi-hyphenated camera with a 12-megapixel BSI CMOS sensor. Woah, that’s a mouthful. Though, there’s not enough good things to say about this powerful new beast that just hit the market. 

When it comes to its ergonomics, the A7 III features Sony’s latest generation mirrorless body design which brings it up to date with its siblings: the A7R III and A9. The refinements to the controls and design make the A7 III appreciably easier to handle than the A7 II. The camera fits nicely in the hand, with an improved grip size making it much more comfortable to shoot with, particularly when using larger lenses. Perhaps just as important, the larger grip size also leaves more room for Sony’s enhanced Z-type battery which when used alongside the A7 III, offers the longest battery life seen on a mirrorless camera to date.
