Some of its useful functions include its 3″ LCD screen which is able to be viewed from either in front or behind the camera as it can be angled in many different ways, as well as its 3-capsule mic that has a windscreen. The bokeh switch that makes the device super easy to use while also providing better footage as it defocusses the background and enhances the subject, a quick improvement with very little effort needed from the user. It also has a body grip, as well as a recording lamp, and can be used easily with tripods. All of this paired with the compact frame supplies creators great audio, visual, and user experience.

The ZV-1 is best for individuals who are less focused on cinematography and more inclined to shoot videos of themselves or of their friends. The 2.4x optical and 44x digital zoom make the camera quite impressive with its accuracy and speed. The real-time and eye autofocus technology created by Sony is one of the more prevalent features. That, as well as its windscreen for optimal outdoor audio sequences and the simple portrait-Esque bokeh switch, makes it an easy to use and extremely functional vlogging camera.
