With the ZV-1 II vlog camera, everything is possible: from group selfies to urban landscapes. The 18mm wide-angle lens captures a wider field of view than the human eye, so everyone or everything fits easily into the frame. Indoors or outdoors, the wide-angle lens transforms everyday scenes into dynamic shots.

No experience required for impressive vlogs with all the right graphics from the start. My Image Style allows you to easily change brightness and color while seeing what you'll capture, without navigating through various menus. For more creative colors and mood, Creative Look has ten presets to choose the ideal one.

In [Auto] mode, the new built-in smart microphone with 3 capsules switches the direction of the built-in microphone from [All Directions] to [Front] when the camera recognizes a human face in the frame. Alternatively, you can manually switch to [Front] for selfies or to [Rear] for narration shooting. Attach the provided windscreen to reduce wind noise and achieve clearer audio in outdoor environments.

Even inexperienced vloggers can start shooting immediately with the ZV-1 II, without studying complex settings. The touch icons (record, self-timer) are on the screen for easy handling. They are extremely useful for selfies or other situations where you can't touch the physical buttons on the camera.

Shaky shots can ruin even the best vlogs, but the ZV-1 II is designed to let you capture great shots even when walking and shooting handheld. The Active Mode function helps minimize camera blur, giving you more stable shots that don't require post-processing.

With the ZV-1 II, you will easily capture excellent group moments. When taking a selfie in iAUTO mode with two or three people, the camera automatically adjusts the setting to keep all faces clear and sharp.

Never miss the action again. When you press the MOVIE button or the recording icon on the LCD screen, the recording light turns red and a red frame appears, so you immediately know that you are capturing what is worth capturing. With the rotating screen, you can monitor the recording for shots from every angle.

The connection between the camera and smartphone has never been easier thanks to the Creators' App. Data transfers continue even if the smartphone goes into sleep mode or if another app is launched. You can also use your smartphone or computer as a remote control for remote operation.

Connect to Creators' Cloud for Sony's production support tools. This gives you access to cloud services, such as Master Cut (Beta) which uses camera metadata and cloud AI to save you time on film editing. Or choose Ci Media Cloud for simpler and smoother team collaboration in production.

With the ZV-1 II, you can easily upgrade your video recording skills. Like the professional Cinema Line cameras or the α series cameras, the ZV-1 II supports S-Log3 and S-Gamut3.Cine picture profiles, for greater flexibility after shooting.

Increase the audio quality of your vlog by connecting external microphones. For example, the ECM-G1 clearly captures sound in front of the camera and connects wirelessly. Or you can choose something from Sony's extensive range designed for a multitude of applications.
