The Sony ZV-E1 is designed as a professional photo-cinema camera for the content creator.
The ZV-E1 has a full-frame 12MP Exmor R CMOS sensor and a BIONZ XR image processor. With the cinema-like interior of the A7 III, this ensures cinematic results.
Some signature features of the ZV-E1 include cinematic bokeh, 15+ stops of dynamic range, 5-axis stabilisation, AI-based auto-framing, AF assist, USB streaming and multiple microphone options.
The Sony ZV-E1 is one of the smallest full-frame cameras with an interchangeable lens mount. This makes it the perfect camera for vlogs, interviews or product images, for example.
Note: The Sony ZV-E1 experiences overheating during extended recording in 4K60P. You can mitigate this to some extent by disabling the dual card recording feature and changing the auto-off feature from normal to high.
