It is always wise to buy a camera that is as versatile as possible and the Sony ZV-E1 ticks a lot of boxes – as well as a full-frame sensor and image stabilisation, it has a fully articulated screen, effective image stabilisation and powerful video features .

Via this Amazon deal, you can now get it for $2,198.00, in eye-catching but classy all-white livery.

Who needs another boring-looking black box!

Sony ZV-E1 key features

  • 12MP full frame sensor
  • Fully articulated screen (no viewfinder)
  • Standard ISO range of ISO 80-102,400
  • Native 4k (120p) video output without any pixel binning
  • Subject detection autofocus
  • Three capsule stereo microphone
  • AI modes including Cinematic Blog
  • 483g with battery and card

User-friendly features carried over from previous ZV models include a Bokeh Switch, which toggles between shooting with the lens wide open for a defocused background, and stopped down for extended depth of field.

Meanwhile Product Showcase mode will temporarily shift focus onto an item held out in front of the presenter. New to the ZV-E1 is Multiple Face Recognition, which will automatically stop the lens down when a second person enters the frame, to keep both sharp.

So this camera is well worth considering if you are keen to record high-quality video as well as taking relatively high-resolution still images.
