The ZV-E10 also includes the acclaimed vlogging-specific features favored in the popular ZV-1 digital camera, including; “Background Defocus”, “Product Showcase Setting” and “Face Priority AE” along with Sony’s highly acclaimed autofocus. Take your vlogging to the next level with the ZV-E10.

Find a lens to match your style

Professional-looking vlogs are easy with the interchangeable lens ZV-E10 camera. Thanks to Sony's extensive range of E-mount lenses, you have a wide variety to capture the world however you choose to see it. Incorporate background scenery into your script with a wide-angle lens, or make the subject grab the viewer's attention by using a wide aperture lens with an artfully blurred background. Move in closer with a macro lens or pull in distant scenes with a telephoto lens. Choose how you see the world and pick the lens that matches your style.

A large-format image sensor for professional quality images

The ZV-E10's impressive images are the result of the camera's large 24.2 MP APS-C Exmor image sensor. Compared to other cameras, the image sensor of the ZVE10 is more than ten times* bigger than a smartphone sensor and three times bigger than a premium 1” sensor found in compact cameras, allowing for beautiful, professional-looking images with high resolution and intricate detail.

High-quality images with minimal noise

The ZV-E10's large-format image sensor is designed to maximize light collection, producing 4K movies with high quality images and less noise, even when you're shooting in a dimly lit setting.

Instant easy access to controls

When you're shooting a vlog session, the last thing you want to do is fumble for buttons. With the ZV-E10 you'll find the MOVIE button right on top, for quick access. There's also a handy zoom lever10, and a mode button that lets you easily switch between Still/Movie/S&Q to access still images, normal videos and Slow & Quick Motion modes.

Designed for simple selfie and vlog shoots

Weighing in at just 12.8 ounces (364 grams), the ZV-E10 is ready to hit the road with you whenever you're ready to vlog. The side-opening vari-angle LCD screen makes it easy to take selfies and check your framing, even when you're shooting from high or low positions. Even the ergonomic grip is designed for a safe and stable hold.

4K video with oversampling for greater detail

The ZV-E10 delivers extremely detailed and crisp 4k from direct pixel readout and no pixel binning. Using the full width of the 24.2MP sensor, means it oversamples roughly the equivalent of 6k, approximately 2.4 times the actual resolution needed to produce its highly detailed 4 video.

Let Real-time AF Tracking do the focusing for you

The ZV-E10's Al (Artificial Intelligence) driven Real-time AF Tracking is intuitive to use. Simply touch the monitor to indicate the subject you want to focus on and Realtime Tracking will take it from there, keeping a steady hold on the subject.

Fast, precise autofocus

Even quick-moving subjects stay in focus thanks to the zvE10's Fast Hybrid AF system. With 425 phase-detection points covering around 84% of the sensor's image area, this wide coverage and dense AF point placement help to precisely capture subjects that might otherwise be difficult to focus on.

Protection against recording failures

You won’t be caught off-guard asking “Are we recording?” or miss a moment because you thought you were but weren’t. The ZV-E10 tells you at-a-glance if you’re recording or not. A tally (recording) lamp on the front of the camera lights up in red and the LCD monitor displays a bold red frame, letting you and your subject know when recording is in progress.

Easy background blur control

There's no need for complicated manual adjustments — the Background Defocus features lets you simple press a single button to turn background blurring (bokeh) on and off. The button switches between the attached lenses maximum aperture for a blurred, bokeh-rich background and either f/8 or f/11 (depending on lens) for a clearly focused one, skipping all the complex manual settings. A defocused background highlights you or your subject , while having everything in focus is great for showing a location or setting.

Precise focus transitions for smooth looking product reviews

With just the press of a button, you can activate the ZVE10's Product Showcase Setting, ideal for product review videos. With the setting activated, whenever you hold a product up in front of the camera the focus will shift automatically to that object and then back to your face again when you move the product out of frame. This setting is available even when image stabilization is set to Active.

Leave it up to the camera to focus on you

With the ZV-EIO you can concentrate on the more creative aspects of vlogging. The camera's Eye AF feature uses sophisticated algorithms to detect, recognize and track a subject's eyes quickly and accurately, keeping a tight focus on a person's eyes.

Smooth, soft skin appearance

The ZV-E10 features a Soft Skin Effect to smooth your skin's appearance. The feature is designed to smooth out your skin while preserving sharpness in the eye and mouth regions. You can select from four levels (from "off to "high") to determine the level of this effect, depending on your preference.

Stay brightly lit wherever you go

Even when lighting conditions change abruptly, the ZV-E10 makes sure that you'll always be brightly lit. From direct sunlight and backlit angles to shadows and dimly lit interior corners, the camera detects the subject's face and automatically handles changes in brightness, performing rapid exposure adjustments to compensate. And if you or your subjects face is no longer visible in the frame, the camera will adjust exposure smoothly to avoid harsh shifts in image brightness levels for a more pleasing movie.

Natural-looking skin tones

The ZV-E10 is designed to produce healthy and natural looking skin tones for everyone without extra editing. Thanks to the ZV-E10's natural color tuning, the camera automatically fine-tunes skin appearance.

Easy speed-up and slowed-down motion

The camera's S&Q (Slow & Quick) Motion modes record videos up to 5x slower than real time or up to 60x faster You can record at up to 50 Mbps with full HD quality, and it's all done in-camera, so you don't need to do any editing on a PC. You can also do highspeed full HD recording at 120fps to create high-resolution slow-motion sequences in post-production.

Designed for clear voice recording

Equipped with a built-in Directional 3-Capsule Mic, the ZVE10 records voices clearly even in crowded settings. It's optimized to capture voices in front of the camera with fewer distracting ambient sounds, perfect for vlogging use. For clear recording even outdoors, the ZV-E10 comes with a wind screen that can easily be attached to the Multi Interface (Ml) Shoe to reduce wind noise, allowing worry-free recording when shooting in windy conditions.

Smooth and stable images even while walking

The ZV-E10 will help keep things smooth and steady when you're on the move. Active Mode electronic image stabilization delivers stable video footage with minimal shake and blur during hand-held recording, and it's available even when the Product Showcase Setting is on.

Easy sound monitoring

Make sure that you're getting exactly the audio stream that you're hoping for. The ZV-E10 features a standard 3.5mm headphone output so you can connect a set of headphones to monitor whether the audio is being properly recorded.

For even higher audio quality

Unlike conventional analog audio transmission, you'll never need to worry about cable signal interference. Just pair the ZV-E10 with any Sony microphone that supports a Digital Audio Interface via an Ml Shoe for clear, low-noise, all-digital audio. In addition, the ZV-E10 supports analogue MI shoe microphones, or you can connect a microphone via the 3.5mm mic jack located above the LCD when flipped out so cables don’t get in the way of the screen.

Vertical shooting without complications

Movies shot in a vertical orientation for some social media applications can be viewed the same way on a PC or smartphone, thanks to metadata recorded by the camera. There's no need to rotate the video manually, convenient when you're sharing your work on social media.

Transfer to a smartphone for quick sharing

The ZV-E10 makes it easy to share 4K movies and still images after shooting. Even when the camera is turned off, your images can continue to be transferred wirelessly from the camera to a smartphone, to be shared as soon as you're ready.

Optional grip for easy one-handed operation

The Bluetooth®-enabled GP-VPT2BT grip (sold separately) provides easy, cable-free remote control of recording and zoom functions along with a custom button. Zoom and record operations are accessible for one-handed shooting, and the Background Defocus (Bokeh) Switch is also assigned by default to an easy-to-reach button for operation with a single touch.

Add special effects in camera

You can switch up your colors to create a variety of artistic effects without any additional post-production. Just change the Creative Style setting, or choose from seven different visual effects using Picture Effect mode.

Flexible control over color tones with S-Log3 support

If you want greater flexibility in adjusting colors during post-production, you'll appreciate the ZV-E10's support for S-Log3, the standard for maximizing sensor performance in professional cameras. S-Log3 allows for a wide dynamic range, giving you the increased visual data you need for greater color control during post-production editing on a PC

Edit movies from your smartphone

Movie footage shot with the camera is easy to edit on a smartphone using the Movie Edit add-on from the Imaging Edge TM Mobile app. The image stabilization feature uses the camera's gyro sensor data to smooth out the video and compensate for camera shake. There's also an intelligent framing feature that uses camera data to let you crop video and change aspect ratios while ensuring that the main subject remains in the frame.

Fine-tune your transitions when you switch focus

When you switch focus from one subject to another, you'll enjoy fine-tuned control over AF Transition Speed. Transition speed controls whether to perform a quick autofocus transition or a more gradual one, with seven different levels available.

Create time-lapse movies

With the ZV-E10's interval shooting mode you can create evocative time-lapse movies assembled from still shots. The shooting interval can be adjusted from 1-60 seconds between shots, with up to 9,999 shots possible. You can see an in-camera preview of what the finished movie will look like, then use Sony's free Imaging Edge Desktop on a PC to put together the final footage.

Produce 4K HDR movies with true-to-life colors

Natural, realistic-looking colors in 4K HDR movies can be achieved without post-production or color grading, thanks to the camera's support for recording 4K HDR (High Dynamic Range) footage using the preset HLG picture profile.

Handle long shooting sessions without battery worries
