Overview

The Sony ZV-E1 Mirrorless Camera is an ultra-compact, black professional photo+cinema camera that enables content creators to elevate their production quality. This camera offers cinematic looks for vlogs, interviews, and product demonstrations. Despite its smaller form factor than the EV-10, the ZV-E1 has cinema-style inner-workings similar to the a7S III. It boasts a full-frame 12MP Exmor R CMOS sensor and a BIONZ XR image processor, delivering stunning cinema looks in a portable size. Additionally, the ZV-E1 is one of the smallest cameras with an interchangeable lens mount, thanks to its full-frame E-mount. The camera comes with numerous features such as cinematic bokeh, 15+ stops of dynamic range, 5-axis stabilization, AI-based auto-framing, AF assist, multiple mic options, USB streaming, and a dust and moisture-resistant housing.

Features

Full-frame, back-illuminated CMOS Exmor R(TM) sensor

The ZV-E1 is Sony's first dedicated vlog camera with a 12.1 MP back-illuminated 35mm CMOS image sensor, delivering 15+ stops of latitude, low noise, high sensitivity, and gorgeous full-frame bokeh.

BIONZ XR image processing engine

With up to 8x more processing power, the new BIONZ XR image processing engine boosts high sensitivity, precise gradation rendering and colour reproduction, and low-noise performance.

Intuitive Cinematic Vlog Setting

Create memorable imagery with S-Cinetone(TM) and other settings

By using Cinematic Vlog Setting and choosing a Look and Mood, you can create cinematic vlog footage that matches the scene and your creative intent. The overall cinematic feel is further enhanced by the use of a 24 fps frame rate and the widescreen Cinemascope aspect ratio (2.35:1) with black bands above and below the image.

5-axis in-body image stabilisation, Dynamic active Mode and Framing Stabilizer

A compact, precision stabilisation unit and gyro sensors plus optimised algorithms achieve up to 5.0-step stabilisation. Dynamic active Mode further improves stability by up to 30% compared to previously, while the Framing Stabilizer automatically maintains the subject's position in the frame, using Dynamic active Mode and AI-based subject recognition.

AI-based Auto Framing for movies

Using AI-based subject recognition technology, the Auto Framing feature automatically crops the frame to keep the subject in a prominent position when shooting movies. Even though the camera is mounted on a tripod, framing is continually adjusted so that recorded footage looks like the subject was being followed by an experienced camera operator.

Creative zoom control

The zoom lever on top of the grip controls compatible powered zoom lenses and also enables Clear Image Zoom for unpowered zoom and prime lenses, which can reduce the number of lenses required for a shoot.

10-bit 4:2:2 in-camera recording

The ZV-E1 can record 10-bit 4:2:2 video internally when using Long GOP or All Intra compression, making it possible to grade for fuller, more natural gradations while generally providing greater editing freedom.

S-Gamut3.Cine/S-Log3 and S-Gamut3/S-Log3

S-Log3 offers enhanced reproduction of shadow to mid-tone (18% grey) gradations. Colour spaces include S-Gamut3, with even better colour reproduction than S-Gamut, and S-Gamut3.Cine, a colour space that has been designed to provide a look similar to scanned cinema film.
