To all content creators and vloggers.
We believe
We believe your creativity
We believe your creativity
inspires the world.
Your voice moves and inspires us.
And now
a new camera has been designed.
I didn't really have any friends
who were interested in my hobbies
but then the world is really small
when it comes to interacting with people.
Passion
To me travelling means
discovering many new places.
I don't want only to share
what I do or what I see
but also
an excitement and discoveries
that I experience from my point of view.
Discovery
Until now I was trying to look like someone
but everybody has their own point of view
and their own beauty where they can shine
and they can look beautiful.
Expression
For me making music is about connecting
with my audience
and with my friends and people around me
and what they give back to me
really does help.
They kind of motivate and inspire me.

Vlog camera ZV-1

Vlog camera ZV-1
Hey everyone. How's it going?
Today, I'm going to introduce you to the vlog camera ZV-1 from Sony.
The ZV-1 is a vlog camera for all content creators.
It's designed to create high-quality content with simplicity in mind.
It's perfect for those who want to upgrade from their smartphones
and into a camera with more of a professional level quality.
A lot of people might hear the word camera and think,
oh, it's going to have a lot of complicated settings and menus that are hard to understand.
But with the ZV-1 you actually don't get that.
It comes out of the box with settings already made for you to just go out
and create content whenever you want to.
Body built for vlog 
So now I'm going to explain the actual camera body as 
it was built specifically for vlogging.
Movie button
The movie button is the biggest on the entire body
Movie button
making it really easy to find and press whenever you need to start or stop recording.
Body grip
This front grip,
Body grip
making it easy to hold while you're taking selfies or vlog videos.
Vari-angle LCD Screen
So one of the best parts of
the camera to me is actually the Vari-angle LCD Screen.
Vari-angle LCD Screen
It makes it super easy to tell what you're recording and keep track of it while you are.
Recording lamp
There's also this recording lamp on the front that lets you know
Recording lamp
if you're actually recording or not.
Recording lamp
It's always a bummer when you think you've got a good shot

and you get to the end just to find out that you actually haven't 
recorded anything.
Image quality 
Next, I'm going to tell you about the image quality of the ZV-1
Image quality 
and how it makes taking high-quality videos really simple.
Image quality
The image quality is optimised for vlogs.
Image quality
When people hear high-quality videos
Image quality
they tend to think of a blurred-out background and a very in-focus or crisp foreground or subject.
Image quality
Despite its size, the ZV-1 is equipped with a 1.0-type image sensor
Image quality
and an F1.8 lens, which makes it really easy to keep the subject in focus and make it stand out.
Image quality
To get the blurred background effect, you simply press
the Bokeh Switch right here
Background blur:Clear
and if you'd like to get the background and foreground back into the same level of clarity
Background blur:Bokeh
just press the switch again, and it turns off.
Autofocus
Another thing with video is that you always want to keep the subject or yourself clearly in focus, right?
Autofocus
The ZV-1 uses Phase Detection autofocus to follow the subject and snap to different focal points really quickly.
Conventional camera(Contrast AF)              Vlog camera ZV-1(Phase Detection AF)        
If you look at the comparison shots, it's pretty obvious, right?
Conventional camera(Contrast AF)              Vlog camera ZV-1(Phase detection AF)    
Even compared to a contrast AF camera, it's really fast.
Real-time Eye AF
The ZV-1 is an incredibly smart camera
Real-time Eye AF
that uses AI to detect your face and eyes to make sure the subject always stays in focus.
Real-time Eye AF
All you have to do is look into the camera.

After that, the camera will automatically detect your face and your eyes and bring you into focus.

This is indicated by a small square around your face or eyes.
Product Showcase Setting
When it comes to shooting indoors the grip’s ability to change into a tripod really shines.
Product Showcase Setting
You've probably seen those product review videos
Product Showcase Setting
where people take the product and put it in front of their hands, right?
Product Showcase Setting
There's Product Showcase Setting that can be activated by pressing
Product Showcase Setting
the delete button so you can easily film review and tutorial videos
Product Showcase Setting
without diving deep into the settings.
Product Showcase Setting Off            Product Showcase Setting On   
Here you can see the difference it makes
having the Products Showcase Settings on.

See how the camera quickly auto-focuses onto the product being reviewed?
Skin tone
If you're worried about how your face and skin look on video, don't be.
The ZV-1 was developed based on research of various skin tones and ethnicities
and will adjust itself to make any skin tone look natural and healthy.
Soft Skin Effect
In addition, the ZV-1 has a Soft Skin Effect which makes the skin appear smoother.
Soft Skin Effect Off          Soft Skin Effect Mid
The difference is fairly easy to spot. Looks good, right?
Soft Skin Effect Off          Soft Skin Effect Mid
The feature is set to Mid by default but can be adjusted from Off, Low, Mid, and to Hi.
Directional 3-capsule Mic 
Capturing sound quality is just as important as image quality, right?
Directional 3-capsule Mic
The ZV-1 has three special-purpose built-in mics.
Directional 3-capsule Mic
These mics are directional and capture sound better from the front

meaning that your voice will always come through clear.
Wind screen
If you're filming outside, all you have to do is attach this wind screen
Wind screen
and instantly the sound of the wind is reduced.
Wind screen
This screen comes with the ZV-1.

Check out this comparison video I made.
Now I'll show you how it sounds with/without the wind screen.

This is the quality without the wind screen.

This is how it sounds with the wind screen attached.

External mic 
If you want to improve sound quality even more, try using an external mic.
External mic
ECM-XYST1M           ECM-GZ1M  
For example, Sony's XYST1M or GZ1M can be attached using a Multi Interface Shoe
External mic

so that you don't have to worry about charging the mic or any external cables.

Of course, the ZV-1 has a mic jack also

so you can use any other mics that you might already have.
Grips
This next one is a must-have for making vlogs.
Grips
It's a wireless shooting grip that can be converted into a tripod.
Grips

There's also a smaller wired version, too.
Grips
You can adjust the angle of the grip to your liking
Grips
and can even use it to shoot vertical videos for the smartphone without rotating the footage later.
Control from grip
It has buttons for recording and zoom
Control from grip
and allows you to assign functions from the camera straight to the grip.
Control from grip
With this grip, you can get a wider angle shot
Control from grip
and it's a lot easier to keep filming over long periods of time.
Image stabilisation
Now, I’ll explain some of the outdoor shooting features.
Image stabilisation
When shooting outdoors
Image stabilisation
camera shake is something I almost always have to deal with.
Image stabilisation
Camera shake is pretty much unavoidable
Image stabilisation
if you're filming while walking around, and it can make a video hard to watch.
Image stabilisation
Luckily, the ZV-1 has powerful image stabilisation.
Image stabilisation Off          Image stabilisation On 
If you compare videos taken with the image stabilisation off to those when it's in active mode
Image stabilisation Off          Image stabilisation On 
you can see that the camera shake is dramatically reduced while walking.
Auto brightness adjustment
Like I mentioned earlier, the ZV-1 will always keep your face looking bright.
Conventional camera            Vlog camera ZV-1      
As you can tell by this comparison video
Conventional camera            Blog camera ZV-1
the ZV-1 keeps the face bright even when walking through areas with different amounts of light.
Creative expressions
Finally, I want to show you how the ZV-1 can enable you to get creative with the type of footage you take.
Slow motion
There's a ton of modes ranging from slow motion
Picture Effect : Miniature
Picture Effect : Partial color
to Picture Effects that make people in buildings appear small.
Picture Effect : Illustration
Still images
And of course, you can take high-quality pictures for use with social media or thumbnails.
Overall, the ZV-1 is a really impressive device.
Its different functions and features make it the perfect camera for creating vlogs.
Just leave the hard stuff to the camera
and focus on creating.
