Instruction Manual
As vloggers and bloggers fast become major content creators, cameras are quickly turning into versatile video and still devices. There are a few devices that stand out in the crowd, catering to the ever-growing demands of the vlogger and home content creator communities. The Sony ZV-1 is one such camera that is primarily aimed at vlogging.
Design and Build Quality
The Vlog Camera ZV-1 is a compact and lightweight device made specifically with vloggers in mind. The fully articulated LCD allows you to include yourself in the video while vlogging. It has a well-defined textured grip. The grille by the side of the accessory shoe encloses a directional three-capsule mic that is optimal for recording sound from the front of the camera. The package includes a furry windshield, which when attached to the accessory shoe, covers the grille, and helps to cut wind noise in video clips. The camera has a metal tripod receptacle.
The top panel of the camera features, apart from the accessory shoe and speaker grille, the shutter release button/zoom lever unit, On/Off button, Mode button, Record button and a Bokeh button to instantly switch between low and high Depth-of-Field.
