The new Sony ZV-1 II offers wider appeal for vlogging but it's a pricey update
According to Sony, users of thefed back that its lens is often not quite wide enough for vlogging, and as a result the latest model features an all-new lens with a wider field of view.
For now, Sony plans to keep the ZV-1 on the shelves alongside the ZV-1 II, in addition to the ZV-1F, which has a fixed 20mm F2.0 lens, and we'll shortly be publishing a Sony ZV-1 Vs Sony ZV-1 II head-to-head to highlight the key differences. 2x zoom rocker extends focal length to 100mm You’ll notice that the telephoto end of the new lens doesn’t extend as far as the ZV-1’s, though, plus the maximum aperture is smaller which could adversely impact image quality in low light. However, the ZV-1 II does also feature a zoom rocker that offers a 2x Clear Image zoom to extend the maximum reach of the lens to 100mm. It’s not an optical zoom, but from experience we’ve never really noticed a drop-off in video quality when using the Clear Image zoom.
Next up on notable changes from the ZV-1 is a fully touch capable screen. It might not sound like a big deal, but for such a small camera whose function relies so heavily on the screen, the limits on the ZV-1 screen were a real downer. Be aware that the ZV-1F already offers full touch function.
