SONY Camera Digital ZV-1 II
TAKE A GUIDED TOUR OF THE ZV-1 II
The ZV-1 II vlog camera is a versatile camera.
Compact and portable, it features a wide-angle zoom lens for versatile framing, a 1.0-type image sensor for optimal image quality, and an intelligent microphone for clear audio.
FRAME EVERYTHING
The ZV-1 II vlog camera captures everything from group selfies to vast landscapes.
The 18mm1 wide-angle lens achieves a wider field of view than the human eye to include everything or everyone in the frame.
Whether indoors or outdoors, the wide-angle lens transforms everyday scenes into dynamic footage.
VERSATILE FRAMING
The ZV-1 II lets you frame your shots the way you want, thanks to its wide-angle zoom lens.
The 18mm lens is great for selfies, and the 50mm is ideal for portraits and snapshots.
In addition, the maximum apertures of F1.8 with the wide-angle and F4 with the telephoto lens provide smooth background bokeh.
CREATIVE COLORS
You don't need to be experienced to create an impactful vlog with the right images from the start.
With My Image Style you can adjust brightness and colour while shooting, without having to scroll through menus.
For shots with more creative colors and moods, Creative Look offers ten presets, so you only need to choose one that matches your vision.
ADD A DRAMATIC TOUCH
Simply tap the screen to turn everyday moments into cinematic images, all without post-production editing.
With the cinematic vlog setting, the camera automatically shoots in a Cinemascope image format at 24fps5, the film industry standard.
You can also change the colour of your footage by simply selecting from five LOOKs and four MOODs for instant and professional results.
BUILT-IN MICROPHONE FOR CLEAR VOICE RECORDING
In [Auto] mode, the new built-in three-capsule smart microphone changes the direction of the built-in microphone from [All Directions] to [Front] when the camera recognizes a human face in the frame.
Or you can manually switch to [Front] for selfies or [Rear] for narration shooting.
Attach a wind shield to reduce wind noise and capture clearer audio outdoors.
EASY TO CARRY
Small and lightweight, the ZV-1 II vlog camera is designed to go wherever you go, just like your smartphone.
Weighing just 292g, capture everyday life with ease and get content on the go.
SIMPLE AND INTUITIVE CONTROL
Even beginner vloggers can start shooting directly with the ZV-1 II; It does not require studying complex definitions.
Function icons such as recording and timer appear on the screen for easy control.
They're also ideal for capturing selfies or other situations where you can't reach the physical camera buttons.
PERMANENT FOCUS
The ZV-1 II ensures that you stay focused at all times with touch tracking.
It recognizes human faces and eyes, so it follows the main subject without swerving.
Just tap the object on the screen to activate the feature.
Eye AF can even be set to follow animal faces and eyes.
POWERFUL IMAGE STABILITY
Shaky footage can ruin the best of vlogging, but the ZV-1 II is designed to let you get great footage, even when you're walking and shooting handheld.
The tivo8 modehelps to minimise camera blur, giving you more stable footage without the need for any post-shooting editing.
STAND OUT WITH JUST ONE TAP
The ZV-1 II makes content creation easy. Activate the product display setting and the camera will focus on the product you're holding, without the need for additional gestures.
Or use the bokeh button to get a softly blurred background, just select [Defocus] to highlight the subject or [Clear] to keep the entire image in focus.
EASY CONNECTION TO SMARTPHONE
Connecting your camera to your smartphone has never been easier thanks to the Creators mobile app.
Data transfers continue in the background, even if the smartphone screen is idle or when another app is launched. You can also turn your smartphone or PC into a remote control to operate the camera remotely.
SIMPLE SINGLE-CABLE TRANSMISSION
Turn the ZV-1 II into a high-quality webcam by connecting a compatible device via USB.
The large 1.0-type image sensor and Creative Look preset ensure vibrant images.
SONY CLOUD SERVICES

You can use Master Cut (Beta), which uses camera metadata and AI from the cloud to produce raw movie edits, saving you valuable time.
Or use Ci Media Cloud to make teamwork for production simpler and smoother.
HIGH QUALITY IMAGES
The ZV-1 II has powerful specifications and delivers impressive image quality.
Its large 1.0-type image sensor allows you to capture professional-grade images in XAVC S format up to 30p and 4K, and up to 120p in Full HD for up to 5x slow motion.
It also supports simultaneous proxy recording for efficient post-production workflows.
GROW WITH YOUR CREATIVITY
With the ZV-1 II, it's easy to take the next steps to improve your videography skills.
Like the professional cameras in the Cinema Line or α series, the ZV-1 II supports S-Log3 and S-Gamut3.Cine picture profiles, giving you greater flexibility in post-production.
BUILT-IN ND FILTER
The ZEISS® Vario-Sonnar T* 18-50mm17 F1.8-4 lens features a neutral density (ND) filter to control light exposure at three stops, giving images more expressiveness in bright light.
The lens maintains sharpness throughout the zoom range, allowing you to capture the images you need to bring your vlog to life.
NEXT LEVEL OF AUDIO QUALITY
Take the audio quality of your vlogs even further by connecting external microphones.
For example, the ECM-G clearly picks up sound in front of the camera and can be connected without any cables.
Or choose a microphone from Sony's wide range, designed to suit a variety of applications
