With the ZV-1F, you can truly capture it all - it allows you to snap a group selfie along with an expansive view of the background scenery.

Sharp Autofocus, Bright Face

Using Eye AF, the camera automatically recognizes human faces and eyes, making sure you stay in focus in front of the lens. Switching the focus to another subject is easy - just touch the screen. There's no need to worry about lighting either, as Face Priority AE (autoexposure) will automatically brighten your face.

With the ZV-1F, you can adjust the footage speed just by pressing the S&Q (Slow & Quick)(2) button.

Select (Defocus) to make the main subject stand out against the defocused background bokeh, or (Clear) to keep the entire image in focus.

Steady Footage Even When Walking

Showing your viewers the world around you makes engaging content, but shaky footage can be a bit distracting. The ZV-1F allows you to capture video clearly even while walking. Active Mode image stabilization (3) helps to minimize image blur from handheld shooting for steadier shots.

Designed for Clear Voice Recording

Indoors or outdoors, the ZV-1F is designed to always capture your voice clearly no matter where you're shooting. The built-in Directional 3-Capsule Mic collects sound from in front of the camera, giving you high quality audio, so you can put your energy into creativity instead of worrying about the sound while recording.

By adding a Shot Mark while shooting or replaying a video, you can cut out a 15, 30 or 60 second (6) clip to send straight to your smartphone (7). Shot Marks also allow you to easily find the scenes you want to use, cutting down on time searching through footage later.

Simple Streaming With a Single Cable

Transform the ZV-1F into a high-quality web camera by simply connecting a compatible device via USB. The 1-inch (1.0-type) image sensor and Creative Look ensure vibrant visuals, while the Directional 3-Capsule Mic will give you excellent audio.

Keep Your Subject in Focus

High precision focusing makes sure your subject stays razor sharp. The 425 contrast- detection AF points (14) are arranged to cover a wide area of the captured image. What’s more, Eye AF track faces without getting diverted by other subjects.

Capture the Details, Even in Dim Light

Thanks to its 20.1 million15 pixel Exmor RS™ 1.0-type stacked CMOS image sensor with integral memory, the ZV-1F can capture clear video with little noise even when shooting in dimly lit locations. While shooting in Intelligent Auto mode, you can now shoot video with the background blurred to the maximum possible extent, allowing the main subject to be captured more clearly and giving your videos extra impact.

Touch-Controlled Step Zoom

With just a touch of the LCD panel, you can easily zoom in to the view of your preference. You can select from 1.0x/1.5x/2.0x/4.0x16 to quickly change the angle of view to make sure you capture your best side.

Start the Shoot With a Timer

From dance videos to action shots, the ZV-1F lets you start shooting when you’re ready without a panic. The large self-timer countdown appears in the center of the screen (17) so you can clearly see when it’s time to begin.

Newly Developed Wind Screen Using Recycled Polyester(10)

At Sony, they have extended the use of recycled materials beyond the camera body to include accessories (9) as well. Through careful testing of sound quality performance and wind protection efficacy, Sony has developed a wind screen using fibers made exclusively from recycled polyester (10), lessening Sony's environmental impact while maintaining performance.

Using Recycled Plastic

Over the past ten years, Sony has used 379 tons (11) of recycled plastic in their digital cameras and video cameras. This is thanks to SORPLAS™ (12), a recycled plastic that offers both sustainability and high performance. The ZV-1F uses SORPLAS on the camera body to reduce its environmental impact.

Reducing Plastic Packaging

To eliminate Sony's use of plastic in packaging, they are now using plant-based nonwoven fabric (13) or paper bags (16) to wrap their products while maintaining the protective and high cushioning properties of plastic.
