Sony ZV-E10 + 16-50mm OSS PZ II kit

Sony ZV-E10 + 16-50mm OSS PZ II kit

This kit includes the newer 16-50mm OSS PZ II kit lens.

There is also a camera with more advanced video features, the ZV-E10 II, but this first version is better suited for photography, so it's a good choice if you want photos in addition to video!

Sony's camera combines the features of the ZV-1 digital camera and an Alpha series SLR camera into a vlogger's powerhouse. Image quality is system-level thanks to the large APS-C sized sensor and this is compatible with all new Sony lenses.

The flip-out touchscreen, good internal microphone, and special ZV-1 features such as product presentation autofocus have been borrowed from the ZV-1 series.

The Sony ZV-E10 is a straightforward option, especially for today's content creators. It lets you create high-quality videos and new features help you succeed on the first take.

• 4K 30P video recording and FullHD 120P slow-motion videos
• Streaming and webcam use directly from your computer, without additional software
• High-quality internal microphone - also comes with a windscreen!
• Face-prioritizing focus and exposure, always correctly exposing faces
• Zoom control is possible with a switch, so you can use the camera with one hand
• Fast autofocus - real-time face and eye tracking with EyeAF
• Bokeh Mode button that minimizes depth of field
• Video recording indicator light
• USB-C streaming directly through your computer's USB port
• Side-swivel and straight-ahead touchscreen

The Sony ZV-10 features the same Sony E lens mount and a similar image sensor as many other A-series system cameras.

Benefits for vloggers and content creators

The Sony ZV-E10 camera has a flip-type touchscreen that folds out to the side and forward. You can easily compose and check the image. You can also select the subject to focus on directly from the screen. The Sony ZV-1 also includes a tally light familiar from camcorders, so you can always see whether video recording is on.

The image quality is good, as with Sony, and video recording is possible at 4K resolution. The automatic exposure keeps the face exposed even in varying conditions, such as outdoors in sunlight. The color scheme is tuned so that skin tones look good and authentic.

The autofocus is borrowed directly from Sony's most expensive flagship models. The subject-detection autofocus keeps the focus in just the right place. The camera automatically detects faces and eyes in the frame and is not confused by even rapid movements.

Thanks to the screen that can be tilted to the side, a high-quality directional microphone can be accommodated on the top of the camera, and the sales package also includes a windscreen for outdoor shooting. The camera has a 3.5mm microphone jack if you want to use a button microphone or interview microphone, for example. In addition, the hot shoe has a new jack, so you can use Sony's professional digital microphone here.

The camera also has a dedicated Product Showcase focus mode for those presenting products to the camera. This mode is activated with a single button and then the camera quickly but smoothly switches focus between the person in the picture and the products being shown to the camera. This feature is perfect for product reviewers and presenting things in front of the camera.

The focus quickly finds even small products, and the video looks very professional when you don't have to wait or adjust the focus.

The goal is to create a stunning video with minimal depth of field and a soft background? There's a dedicated Bokeh Mode button for that, press it and the camera will do the rest.
