The vlogging camera space is heating up, with manufacturers targeting content creators with specially designed products. Sony was one of the first to recognise this market and has made several cameras in its vlog-focused ZV line, such as the Sony ZV-E10 or Sony ZV-1F. These focused on the entrylevel vlogger, with 1-inch or APS-C sensors and affordable prices.
Sony now has something for the more serious vlogger, the ZV-E1. It’s a full-frame vlogging camera, with image stabilisation and a subject recognition and tracking system, pulled out of its top-of-the-line professional camera.
However, the ZV-E1 is still hounded by the same question as the rest of the vlogging camera market, when the video on an iPhone is so good (and is getting better), is there a need for a dedicated £2,350 vlogging camera?
