Sony ZV-1 II White

The Sony ZV-1 II White Compact Camera brings an ultra-wide 18mm angle of view, improved touch control settings including zoom, and a more functional grip position. The 20.1MP 1-inch Exmor RS image sensor and auto-adjust bokeh produce beautiful image quality and 4K30p video with FHD up to 120p. Built for content creators, multi-face recognition makes it great for group shots and selfies, while features including a tally light, vari-angle screen, and red frame make it an excellent vlogging camera.

Ultra-wide field of view

With the new lens being a Zeiss Vario-Sonnar T* 18-50mm F1.8-4 it includes an ultra-wide 18mm angle of view allowing wider shots than the previous ZV-1. Working alongside features such as multi-face recognition the camera is able to automatically adjust through the F1.8-4 aperture range so that everyone in a group shot is in focus.

Vlogging specific features

Ideal for video content creators the ZV-1 II has cinematic vlog settings to turn all settings to cine-vlog with one touch so you can capture anything with speed; simply point and shoot. The lens zoom and many other useful features can be changed via the touchscreen, making on-the-go adjustments simple. A tally light, red frame, and self-timer further help to make high-quality video production easier. The 3-inch Vari-Angle LCD screen also allows you to have a front-facing screen, perfect for selfies and vlogging. For extended shoots, the grip position has been moved for quick battery access. The Sony ZV-1 II is also compatible with the Sony GP-VPT2BT grip.
