All these features come at a price.
The Sony ZV line seems to have always been targeted at creatives who care more about vlogging than cinematic compositions. This was evident in not only the sensor size and ergonomics of previous cameras but also the price. It was affordable and did what it needed. It was the perfect tool for those needs. Until now, no ZV camera has cost more than a few hundred dollars.
That has changed with the Sony ZV-E1, which comes with a price tag of $2,198.
What changed? A few things, one being that creatives will find a full-frame sensor found in the FX3 and the AI-based features of the A7R V. It’s an impressive piece of tech, to say the least, but is it necessary?
Features Worthy Of The Price
The Sony ZV-E1 comes with the same 12.1MP Full-Frame CMOS Exmor R Sensor you will find in the Sony FX3. A camera that’s almost $2000 more. This means creatives will be able to capture amazing low-light images with the claimed 15+ stops of dynamic range. Whatever you plan on shooting, this is a stunning sensor to have at your disposal.
