Sony Alpha ZV-E10 review: interchangeable lens vlogging machine

The Alpha ZV-E10 is Sony's newest addition to its lineup of mirrorless cameras. At $799.99 with Sony's 16-50 lens ($699.99 for just the body), it is the company's second attempt at making a vlogging-oriented camera and the successor to last year's...

Reasonably priced entry-level camera to E-mount ecosystem Small size Easy to use for beginners

Battery life is just okay Video crop at 4k 30fps Lacks weatherproofing No in-body optical stabilization

For a vlogger looking to take the next step in image quality and creative control over what a phone can provide, the ZV-E10 is easy to use and beginner-friendly while providing easy ways to step up your game. Its low light capabilities could be better,...

Sony ZV-E10 review

The Sony ZV-E10 is a 24MP APS-C mirrorless interchangeable lens camera aimed at vloggers. It features an articulating selfie screen with touch capability, 4K video capture, headphone and microphone ports and a variety of add-on accessories to assist in...

Vloggers and filmmakers shooting mostly static shots.

Any form of vlogging that involves movement or capturing fast action. Stills shooters who want a viewfinder.

As a vlogging platform, the ZV-E10 seemingly has a lot to offer: it shoots oversampled 4K/24p video using the full width of its sensor, features a selfie touchscreen, a good built-in directional microphone, headphone/microphone ports and class-leading...

Sony ZV-E10 Review

A year after introducing its first camera for vloggers (the fixed-lens ZV-1), Sony is bringing the concept to an interchangeable lens platform. The ZV-E10 ($699.99, body only) is built around the same sensor as the stills-focused a6100, but is made...

Excellent 4K video at 24 or 30fps Best-in-class autofocus Bright, front-facing LCD Clear in-camera microphone Supports add-on mic and headphone monitoring Works as a USB webcam

Battery drains quickly Digital stabilization adds crop to video Limited touch controls In-camera charging slow for on-the-go use Slow-motion limited to 1080p No 4K60 recording

Sony's ZV-E10 camera appeals to vloggers with a quality mic and support for swappable lenses, but is held back by a weak battery and a so-so touch interface.

Sony ZV-E10 review

Sony has called its new camera the ZV-E10, presumably to distinguish it from its long running series of A6000 cameras. It did the same with its pocket-sized Sony ZV-1, which is essentially a cheaper vlogging version of the rather pricey RX100 series...

Autofocus features and performance Vari-angle screen Clip on wind muffler

No viewfinder No in-body stabilization Rolling shutter/'jello' effect

The ZV-E10 is a very likeable little camera that doesn’t really break any new ground technically, and even ditches a few features that stills photographers would like to have, but for novice vloggers it’s a pretty good camera. It has 4K video, Sony’s...
