Sony Alpha ZV-E10 - APS-C Interchangeable Lens Mirrorless Vlog Camera Kit - Black

The box arrived crushed and with the seal broken, but all the items were there, seemingly in perfect condition. I'll update after using them.

My Phone is better.

Es una muy buena cámara para iniciar en el mundo de la fotografía y el vídeo. Tiene sus respectivas limitaciones y el lente es muy básico, pero también muchísimas características que le dan valor (micrófono, puertos, el sensor es muy bueno), y claro compatibilidad con una gran cantidad de lentes con los que se le puede sacar más provecho (con su respectivo costo), pero de verdad una excelente compra

Ótima relação custo benefício pra quem quer uma câmera profissional pagando pouco

This webcam has become my favorite upgrade for livestreams. Setup was super easy, and it captures a clear, sharp image, picking up all the colors and lights in my background. When I watch my streams back, the quality is noticeable and gives viewers a much better experience. The webcam feels durable and well-built, not cheap, and it’s versatile enough for photos or on-the-go videography if I ever need it. I recently moved to a new house, and it fits perfectly in a small bag for easy storage. I actually got this on a sale two years ago, and it’s still one of my best purchases for my setup. For anyone doing content creation or working from home, this is a reliable, high-quality, and versatile webcam that makes a big difference.

I’ve been using the Sony Alpha ZV-E10 for my live streaming setup, and I’m extremely impressed with its performance. The camera’s APS-C sensor delivers outstanding image quality, capturing crisp and clear footage even in low-light conditions. It’s lightweight and compact, making it easy to maneuver during streams. What I appreciate most is the versatility of the interchangeable lenses. This allows me to adapt the camera for different shooting scenarios, from wide-angle room views to close-up shots. The built-in microphone and the option to connect an external mic provide great audio quality, which is essential for streaming. The user-friendly interface and streaming-friendly features make this camera stand out. Whether I’m streaming or recording content, the ZV-E10 handles it effortlessly. If you’re serious about streaming or vlogging, this camera offers the quality and flexibility you need. I’m very satisfied with it and highly recommend it to content creators.

I already have a full frame A7r2 that I've been using for video, so I can offer a comparison with that (which may also translate to other Sony full frame cameras) for those interested. Video quality: I'm immediately impressed how hard it is to distinguish the video quality from the a7r2. It does need a bit more light (it's at ISO 200 under the same lighting conditions that the a7r2 was at ISO 100), and the crop factor is certainly noticeable when using the same full frame lenses, but apart from that, it just looks really good. To be clear I'm not doing any carefully measured tests, this is just a first impression eyeball test comparing 4k vs 4k video of the same subject in the same lighting conditions. Build quality: Here's where the relatively-budget pricing of this camera is noticeable. This feels very cheap and plasticky compared to an a7 (which has a metal frame). The wheel on the top of the camera feels mushy and yucky. They didn't bother to paint the screws to match the colour of the body. The "grip" looks grippy but feels glossy smooth and if anything *more* slippery than the rest of the body. There's no proper latch to open the USB/HDMI panel or flip open the display, it's just a crevice in the plastic you have to dig your nail underneath to pop it open. It is "budget" within Sony's camera lineup, but I'd still hope for better given the actual cost. A rubbery texture to the grip would cost what, like $3, that's not a corner they need to be cutting on a device that retails for $850. Software: This is another area of advantage vs. my a7r2 that is an older model and not designed for video first. Mostly the menus/settings are very familiar, but a big plus here is auto-focus tracking on eyes, while in video mode. I'm mostly using this on a tripod, but the ability to use a touch screen for changing the AF focus point is also a plus. I'll also include in "software" that it can directly function as a webcam with its USB output, which is a convenience (I've tested this and it's fine, but I still prefer the better quality and 4K support of the HDMI out into a capture stick). Hardware design: Mostly this is a standard Sony camera layout of hardware buttons/wheels/etc., and with the settings a lot of it can be customized. My only complaint, apart from build quality, is that the display screen flips out to the same side of the camera as the HDMI/USB output and mic input--meaning that if you use it while anything is plugged in, the cables are going to obstruct the display. I can see how they backed themselves into this corner (there would also be problems with moving the jack locations, and there would be problems with moving where the display flips out), it's just unfortunate. I've ordered a "right angle" micro HDMI plug as a mitigation. Overall, the optics are the big selling point here, in a very compact package that is video-first. If using it on a tripod indoors, get a "dummy battery", which will both give infinite power and prevent overheating of the device. You can charge while plugged in by USB, but it doesn't charge as fast as the battery drains (or so YouTube tells me), and anyways it will just generate heat and ruin the battery. The cleverness of my pairing this with my a7r2 is that they use the same battery (and I have a dummy battery already). Otherwise I might have waited for the ZV-E10 ii, which is expected to come out very soon.
