[Asia Economy Reporter Han Jinju] Sony Korea is launching the 'ZV-1,' a compact all-in-one digital camera designed specifically for video shooting.

The ZV-1 is a digital camera tailored for vloggers and video/content creators. It offers simple and easy-to-use features optimized for video recording, digital imaging technology, and clear audio quality. It is equipped with functions suitable for content creators ranging from beginners to professionals.

The ZV-1 features a 1.0-type image sensor and a ZEISS standard zoom lens (24-70mm) with a bright aperture range (F1.8-F2.8) designed for video content creators. It highlights subjects clearly while producing a bokeh (background blur) effect optically. Sony's advanced AI-based autofocus (AF) supports continuous AF tracking and can track animal eyes.

In video mode, it supports a soft skin function that allows users to achieve desired results step-by-step without additional editing. The Face Priority AE (automatic exposure) function quickly adjusts exposure by prioritizing the face even when moving from bright areas to dark shadows. The newly added Product Showcase Setting on the ZV-1 enables smooth and fast focus switching between the subject's face and an object placed in front of the lens without needing to move the hand behind the object during review video shoots.

For the first time in a Sony camera, it features a horizontally foldable, angle-adjustable LCD touchscreen. Weighing 294g and measuring 105.5mm x 60.0mm x 43.5mm, it is easy to carry. Even when attaching external audio accessories, the screen view is not obstructed, facilitating smooth selfie shooting. It supports 4K video recording and includes optical image stabilization. To deliver clear audio quality, it is equipped with a 3-capsule directional microphone, and a dedicated windscreen is provided to reduce wind noise during outdoor shooting.

The Sony Store price for the ZV-1 is 999,000 KRW. Pre-orders start on the 5th, with the official release on the 12th. Pre-order customers will receive a high-capacity NP-BX1 battery and a strap as gifts.
