The Sony ZV-1F Vlog Camera is a pocket-sized powerhouse designed specifically for content creators and vloggers. Featuring a large 1-inch sensor and an ultra-wide 20mm lens, it delivers high-quality video and photos with intuitive, creator-focused features that make shooting effortless.
Fit Everything in the Frame
The ultra-wide 20mm lens captures expansive scenes with impressive depth and perspective, making it easy to film group selfies or wide background shots—even in tight indoor spaces or on the go.
Beautiful Skin Tones for Everyone
The ZV-1F automatically reproduces natural, healthy-looking skin tones without extra setup. A selectable Soft Skin Effect (Off/Low/Mid/High) lets you fine-tune smoothness to match your style.
Sharp Autofocus, Bright Face
Eye AF detects and tracks faces and eyes to keep you perfectly in focus. Simply tap the screen to shift focus, while Face Priority AE automatically brightens your face for balanced exposure in any lighting.
Easy Bokeh at the Push of a Button
Create professional-looking background blur instantly using the Bokeh Switch. The 1-inch sensor and bright f/2.0 lens deliver true optical bokeh—choose Defocus to isolate your subject or Clear to keep everything sharp.
Impressive Colors to Match Your Style
Select from 10 Creative Style presets to enhance contrast, highlights, shadows, saturation, sharpness, and clarity—achieving polished results without complex editing.
Slow Motion or Speed, Instantly
Capture emotional moments in smooth slow motion or energize scenes with hyper-lapse effects using the S&Q button. Record video up to 5x slower or up to 60x faster with no post-production required.
Steady Footage Even When Walking
Active Mode image stabilization minimizes blur during handheld shooting, helping you capture smooth, stable footage while moving.
Ideal for Product Review Videos
With Product Showcase mode, simply hold an item in front of the camera and focus shifts automatically—no gestures or refocusing needed—keeping attention exactly where it belongs.
Designed for Clear Voice Recording
The built-in directional 3-capsule microphone captures clear, front-facing audio indoors or outdoors, letting you focus on storytelling without worrying about sound quality.
Clear Sound Even on Windy Days
An included windscreen significantly reduces wind noise, ensuring clean audio when shooting outside.
Vertical Video Made Simple
Shoot vertical video for social platforms with ease. The ZV-1F supports in-camera rotation of horizontal footage, eliminating the need for extra editing.
