Features

Illustration showing the autofocus coverage of much of the image area

Keep your subjects in focus

High-precision focusing makes sure your subject stays razor sharp. The 425 contrast- detection AF points are arranged to cover a wide area of the captured image. What’s more, Eye AF track faces without getting diverted by other subjects.

Example of shooting in dimly-lit conditions

Capture the details, even in dim light

Thanks to its 20.1 million pixel Exmor RS™ 1.0-type stacked CMOS image sensor with integral memory, the ZV-1F can capture clear video with little noise even when shooting in dimly lit locations. While shooting in Intelligent Auto mode, you can now shoot video with the background blurred to the maximum possible extent, allowing the main subject to be captured more clearly and giving your videos extra impact.

Image of LCD screen while using step zoom

Touch-controlled step zoom

With just a touch of the LCD panel, you can easily zoom in to the view of your preference. You can select from 1.0x/1.5x/2.0x/4.0x to quickly change the angle of view to make sure you capture your best side.

Image of LCD screen while using self-timer

Start the shoot with a timer

From dance videos to action shots, the ZV-1F lets you start shooting when you’re ready without a panic. The large self-timer countdown appears in the centre of the screen so you can clearly see when it’s time to begin.

Product images of SF-E series media

Dedicated media for worry-free shooting

Capture it all without worrying about running out of storage space on your smartphone. The ZV-1F can record to removable SD or SDXC media, giving you the freedom to shoot as much as you want.

Close-up of USB-C port

Shoot for longer with a USB-chargeable battery

With the ZV-1F, you can enjoy shooting on the go without worrying about running out of battery power. The camera can be charged via its USB Type-C® port, as well as from a mobile battery, giving you plenty of options for powering on through a shoot.
