• Shoot great video, wherever you go
  The ZV-1 is built to get great shots while you're moving. With amazing image stabilization, you can shoot smooth video when walking, and as the light goes from shadow to sun or outdoors to in, the automatic exposure (AE) tracks faces and makes sure they always appear well-lit.

• Use your favorite mic for the sound you want
  With a microphone jack and MI shoe, you can pick from your choice of mics to get exactly the sound you want.
• Dynamic video through slow motion
  Make every movement more cinematic with Super Slow Motion video, capturing the most fleeting of moments for playback at up to 40x slower than real time.
• Time-lapse for that cinematic effect
  Interval shooting mode automatically captures sequences of images from 1–60 seconds apart which can be made into cinematic time-lapse videos on a PC, where clouds flow past like water and whole days pass in seconds.
• Take amazing pictures as well as video
  The ZV-1 has everything you need to capture images that really shine in your timeline and video thumbnails. The pin-sharp ZEISS® 24–70 mm lens focuses light to a large 1.0-type Exmor RS™ CMOS image sensor, with it all coming together in the powerful BIONZ X™ image processor.
• Express yourself with creative effects
  Picture Effects and Creative Styles allow for near-limitless visual possibilities — from simple monochrome and partial color effects, right through to complex miniature effects.
• Instantly transfer movies to your smartphone
  The free Imaging EdgeTM Mobile app for iOS and Android lets you simply transfer, edit and upload images shot on the ZV-1 instantly to social media platforms, from wherever you are.

• Easily shoot vertical-position movies for mobile
  With automatic tagging of vertically oriented videos, you can upload content custom-made for smartphone screens.
• See yourself at your best
  The vari-angle LCD touchscreen flips out horizontally, making it perfect for selfies and vlogging. Clear of ports, microphones and mounting shoes, it allows for precise framing and fluid operation even while in front of the camera.
• Know at a glance whether you're recording
  It's easy to know when you're recording with a clear recording lamp on the front of the camera — and it’s easy to switch off if you prefer. You’ll never accidentally forget to hit the record button again.
• Optimized grip for selfies
  The deeper, shaped grip is more comfortable for conventional shooting, and offers a stable handhold to reduce fatigue for vlogging or selfie shots.
• Works with wireless control grips
  The ZV-1 is compatible with the Sony Bluetooth® wireless shooting grip GV-VPT2BT, which offers cable-free control of zoom, recording and more, and expands into a mini-tripod for stable hands-free shots.
• Professional 4K HDR movie functions
  The ZV-1 records immensely detailed 4K HDR video through 1.7x pixel resampling so you can capture reality without any compromise.
• S-Log gamma for professional workflows
  S-Log2 and S-Log3 gamma controls are available for camera matching and flexibility in color grading, along with a range of picture profile settings to create your perfect aesthetic.
• Built-in ND filter
  A Neutral Density (ND) filter opens creative possibilities via video exposure control, enhancing depth-of-field and enabling magical slow-shutter portrayal of water, light, and motion.
  
• New ZV-1 Firmware Update Enables High-quality Video and Audio Livestreaming
  With this firmware update, users can easily connect the ZV-1 to a PC via USB to utilize the high-quality video stream and built-in microphone for crystal-clear audio for everyday uses from livestreaming via social media platforms to video conferencing. Additionally, when the camera is connected to one of Sony's Xperia™ smartphones, users can livestream on the go and use the Xperia smartphone as a secondary display to read comments and monitor the live feed.
  
  Recently, there has been an increase in demand for livestreaming, and a growing expectation for its image and audio quality. This firmware update allows users to take full advantage of the ZV-1's high-quality video as well as excellent audio capabilities, utilizing high-quality UVC/UAC support, for livestreaming, video calls and more. This capability will also be added to additional compatible cameras in the future.
