I’ve been living in San Francisco for a few months and balancing out my full-time 9-to-5 job with my digital content creation life. I like to keep my content as relatable as possible and the ZV-1 camera allows me to do just that because of its compact size and ease of operation.

While I’m out and about in the windy city of San Francisco, the fuzzy mic windscreen really helps with the video quality in my daily vlogs.

If you are a budding content creator like me, don’t focus on creating the next viral content – create content you love!

I would suggest being as authentic as possible and focusing on consistency in the beginning to build a reliable and long-term audience.

When filming my dog Angel, I always make sure to shoot at her eye level to showcase a better viewing perspective. Having Sony’s shooting grip is helpful here as it allows me to effectively shoot at low angles and get more stable shots while I’m running alongside her.

In addition, I also turn on the active image stabilisation in my ZV-1 camera to cut out all of the bumps when I’m just out and about, running and chasing her.

I love documenting the unique experiences that I’ve encountered in life and creating stories out of them.

Because I often have to capture both well-planned shots and spontaneous moments, the ZV-1 camera is great as it allows me to have a balance of quality and portability when I’m shooting on the go. Check out how that looks like in the video below!

With the ZV-1 camera, you don't have to worry about not having any makeup on or not looking good in front of the camera. Just turn on the Soft Skin Effect. You can even customise the intensity to better suit your preferences.

Because of the ZV-1 camera, I was able to gain access to more video recording techniques. Besides being easy to operate, it is also very intuitive. As soon as you start recording, there will be a red flashing light in front of the camera, so you never have to worry if you’ve pressed the record button.

It is a camera suited for casual videographers. With a small compact body, it is light and easy to carry around in my usual small bag.

Whether it’s filming art vlogs or capturing a magical sunrise/sunset, the ZV-1 camera is perfect for timelapse shots.

To create a timelapse, I use the ‘interval shoot’ function. I input the desired number of frames and duration between the shots and start shooting. I make use of the shooting grip as a tripod for added stability while the timelapse is being shot. This creates a collection of high-quality still images, which can be edited into a timelapse video.

I love nature, traveling to new places, and having adventures! When I’m out exploring or on a hike, the ZV-1 camera is ideal to bring along because of its compact size. I am able to save my favourite camera modes which is perfect for taking quick photos and videos.

With the ZV-1 camera, I can create montage videos of my adventures and capture photos of dynamic sceneries. Some of my favourite shots are of low-light scenes. I frequently use the ZV-1 camera to take long exposure shots of the city at night. This creates mesmerising light streaks that bring about an interesting perspective of a typical scene.

I also like that this camera is small enough to carry around but still powerful enough to capture different scenes – this has helped me share my stories easily without losing the essence of the moment.

With plenty of functions available on the ZV-1 camera, I highly recommend using the manual mode. For me, I like to shoot in S-Log3 as it maximises the performance of the image sensor.

As for shutter speed, I like to set it to 1/(2*fps). For example, if it is a 24fps video, I’ll set the shutter speed to 1/48, which is 1/ (2*24). This will help create a motion blur in the clips, making them look natural and smooth.

Lastly, don’t forget about the built-in ND filter. While most cameras need an external ND filter to block light from coming into the lens, the ZV-1 camera has one built into it. All you have to do is turn it on.

On top of the luggage, travelling with a huge camera is a challenge for me. That’s why I was impressed when I first had my hands on a ZV-1 camera. Despite its compact size, it still provided strong performance.

My hand never felt stiff after a day of shooting and it reduced the weight of my luggage. With the ZV-1 camera, I can now capture stunning moments while still enjoying my trip.

There’s a bluetooth grip for the ZV-1 camera, called the GP-VPT2BT. This has helped me a lot because I don’t have to lug a heavy tripod when I’m on the go. It’s very easy to use and you can control the actual camera through it.

Gaming feeds my love for a good challenge and problem solving, and it will forever be my most favourite form of entertainment. With that, I love creating YouTube videos of gameplay and game reviews.

As a gamer, the auto focus feature on the ZV-1 camera is very accurate and allows me to record with peace of mind, knowing that it is correctly focused on my face. It is also helpful because I move my hands a lot in my YouTube videos.

I also like to use my ZV-1 camera to create video auditions on the go. The camera is light enough to be carried everywhere and the quality is great.

When shooting my campus food for a Sony event, I used the slow-motion function on the ZV-E10 camera to capture the food in motion. To my surprise, I managed to achieve a pleasant effect.

The ZV-E10 camera has helped me elevate the quality of my videos and pictures because of its quick focal ability. I find it convenient to introduce products without having to manually guide the camera into prioritising nearby objects.

It has also allowed me to try out different themes and styles as well as create new creative compositions.

I use the ZV-1 camera because it’s small and compact. It's very convenient to take out, especially for ladies. Although it’s small, its photographic and videographic functions should not be underestimated.

For example, its focusing speed is very fast and the video quality also surprised me a lot. I can easily create beautiful scenes and videos with the ZV-1 camera.

Another thing that surprised me is how good the audio quality is. This is because of the camera’s built-in directional 3-capsule mic which allows for clear audio quality.

Overall, the ZV-1 camera has improved my videography a lot despite its small size.

As a content creator, I’m in love with my ZV-1 camera. The camera screen flip helps me to see myself while I’m taking videos. The grip on the camera also acts as a selfie stick, allowing me to walk around easily while filming my content. The auto stabilisation makes the final content more stabilised and not jarring or jumpy when I’m walking around.

It’s the perfect camera for content creators like me!

Whether I’m filming my TikTok dances, makeup tutorials or daily routine workouts, the ZV-1 camera is able to help me film good quality content.

The best thing about it is that I can easily take my camera everywhere with me and even carry it inside my pocket.

Though I create all sorts of content, beauty videos are one of the main things I do and it can be very time-consuming. Fortunately, the ZV-1 camera has a feature called Product Showcase that makes this process much faster. All I have to do is turn it on and any product that I put in front of the camera will immediately come into focus. Doing this will also create a beautiful bokeh effect in the background.

Impressed? Here are some other cool features that I’d love to share with you guys:

I make a wide range of content! This includes travel, vlogs, lifestyle, beauty, fashion and even gaming videos. Thanks to the ZV-1 camera, I can now easily juggle between all these types of content.

As a content creator, I generally have to film everything by myself. I don’t have a crew to help me. But that’s okay because the camera has an array of features that can help vloggers like me create on the go. It is such a user-friendly camera that anyone can just pick up and use.

Now that I am posting more top-down unboxing videos on my YouTube channel, the ZV-E10 camera has been super helpful. Because it’s super light, I can easily hang it in an overhead position and not have to worry about the mount failing or my camera falling off.

Having access to the Product Showcase feature is also super important for me as I can quickly lift something up and show it to the camera. See what I mean in this video below:

My first impression of the camera is that it is super light and compact. When vlogging out in public, it can be a bit awkward to carry around big cameras with external microphones attached. But with the ZV-E10 camera, its size just made things a lot easier and more comfortable. It felt so nice in my hand and it could even fit in my pockets. The menu system was super easy to navigate and the buttons were just nice and crisp.

My favourite part was the Shutter Priority mode. With it, you don’t really have to change much of the settings when you’re vlogging. You can go from indoors where it’s super dark to outdoors where it’s super bright, and the camera will just automatically change all the settings for you so you can continue talking and telling your story.

Paired with the GP-VPT2BT Bluetooth Shooting Grip, this became an awesome combo for all of my needs. If you too are looking for an entry-level camera, the ZV-E10 camera may just be the one for you.

To help you guys better understand how our vlogs are created, we’ve divided the vlogging process into three.

First, we’ll show you how to choose the right music, frame your shots and record smooth videos.

Secondly, we’ll teach you how to use the S&Q (Slow and Quick) mode on ZV-E10 for dramatic slow motion. On top of that, we will share how you can better tell your story and plan your shots.

Last but not least, we are going to answer the question that everyone has been asking — which camera and lens are most suitable for beginners? Find out more below.

For us, traveling is not just about visiting attractions or having good food. Travel is our way of living in the world. Traveling makes us know the possibility of our life, experiencing other people’s lives. So we want to share our experience through our videos to encourage people to create their own stories.

Most of our videos are about diving, free-diving, and mountain climbing, food, hotels and other activities around the world. We have used Sony cameras to capture all these in their best light.

If vlogging is something you are interested in as well, we recommend starting out with the ZV-E10 camera. It has lots of features that you will love.

When it comes to vlogging, the ZV-1 camera has a ton of features that can help you out. Starting from the built-in ND filter, simply turn it on when you are vlogging outside on a sunny day and it will block out the sun so you don’t have to reduce your aperture.

There’s also a flip-out screen which you can rotate it in so many directions, a focus button which basically defocuses your background and makes you stand out more in your videos as well as a feature called Product Showcase which can help you focus on any item you put in front of the camera.

Watch me as I demonstrate these features and more in the video below:

At first, I really only got the ZV-1 camera as a backup camera. But every time I used it, the features kept wowing me and soon I found myself using this camera more often than my main camera.

One of the first reasons why I bought this camera was because of its small size. It could fit right in my palm and I actually felt more comfortable and confident vlogging with it when I’m outdoors. People don’t pay much attention to you when you’re vlogging with the small ZV-1 camera. And for those of you who want an easy set-up but great quality, you’ll be pleased to know that the ZV-1 camera is able to shoot in 4K resolution.

For me, the ZV-1 camera basically has everything I need to empower my creativity and the best part is, it fits right in my pocket.

After travelling for so many years, the ZV-E10 has become my favourite vlogging camera. Here’s why. Sony cameras have incredible auto-focus and the ZV-E10 camera has 2 particular features that take travel vlogging to the next level.

To start off, this camera has a feature called Product Showcase. Whenever you want to showcase a product, all you have to do is hold it up and the camera instantly recognises the product and focuses directly on it. The item can be as small as the little metal tabs on soda cans, and the ZV-E10 camera will still focus on it straight away.

As for the second feature, check out the video below to find out! Here’s a hint – it helps vloggers keep the camera on them.

In 2015, I left Australia and took a 6-month gap year with my first Sony mirrorless camera.But just like all good stories go, I ended up falling in love – not with a girl but with travelling.

Soon after, I picked up the Sony ZV-E10 which became my go-to camera for life on the road. What makes this camera truly unique is its interchangeable lens capability. It has allowed me to get a wide range of shots without the need to carry multiple cameras, which is great for travel vloggers.

Having visited over 70 countries, my landscape always changes. But I’m happy to say that my camera doesn’t have to.

Growing up, I used to watch a lot of gaming videos. This eventually inspired me to start creating my own content a few years later.

Creating content with the Sony ZV-1F has been super easy for me. I just use the tripod mount attachment, flip the screen towards me, press record on the mount and I’m good to go! Plus, the Bokeh Switch makes it simple to get accurate focus in my videos. Whether I’m indoors or outside, my videos always feel like they have levelled up with this dedicated camera.

I really enjoy creating vlog-style and comedy videos on TikTok with the ZV-1F. It has helped make my videos look more professional with built-in LUTs which we often call filters. Just by switching up the Creative Look and altering the colour profiles, the ZV-1F camera has enabled me to get the touch of vibrancy that I love for my videos.

Did you know that the ZV-1F has a wider field of view than the human eye? With a wide-angle 20mm lens, I love how I can capture a more expansive view of the background scenery whenever I snap a selfie.

I enjoy taking videos of nature, food and also myself when I’m sightseeing around the world. But shaky footage can be an issue. Luckily, the ZV-1F camera is able to capture videos clearly even while I’m walking. Its Active Mode image stabilisation helps to reduce image blur from shooting handheld.

Since switching to the ZV-1F, I’ve discovered some tricks that have made my content creation process much easier. And I’m going to share it with you guys!

Firstly, you can take a portion out of any long video to save time from editing later on. Secondly, you can turn on Creative Look which offers built-in filters to make your videos look more cinematic whenever you’re shooting B-rolls.

That’s it! These 2 simple changes has helped me a lot and I hope it can help you too.

Though I only started vlogging as a hobby, I finally took content creation seriously when the pandemic started. Being a content creator can be a rewarding and fulfilling career as I get to share my experiences and ideas with others, and potentially make a positive impact on their lives. But to become successful, I realised I needed to consistently produce high-quality content on top of being creative and passionate.

That’s where ZV-1F came in. It is one of the few lightweight cameras out there that has a flip mirror screen and 4k quality. With it, I can easily experiment with different framing, angles and shot types, which can add variety and interest to your videos.

Overall, the ZV-1F is a great camera that can become an invaluable tool for any content creator.

For me, inspiration can be found everywhere. Especially in unexpected places. You just have to keep your eyes open. That is why I recommend getting the Sony ZV-1F camera. It’s highly compact and light enough to take with you everywhere so you will never have to miss a photo opportunity.

The pandemic was no doubt a tough time for everyone. However, we could still connect through social platforms and that was how I started creating my own content on TikTok.

The ZV-1F camera was everything I needed for my dance and lifestyle content. Its lightweight design and class-leading functionalities made vlogging that much easier for me. Now, I just bring it with me wherever I go!
