The economics may be silly, but Sony remains adamant that it's all about the technology in the cameras. The new ZV-E10 II continues Sony's trend of making small, iterative changes from more expensive cameras to cheaper models. There are only a few weighing.

The ZV-E10 II is the continuation of the APS-C-C-K light system camera in the original ZV-E10 2021. It now has a larger battery, a 260 -meter pixel inverted sensor and improved 4K video. Its body will also spend $ 999 or with Sony's new PZ 16-50 mm f/3.5-5.6 OSI lens, when at the beginning of August at the beginning of August, the USD 1 099 will cost $ 1,099, which is an additional $ 999 USD USD $ 999 USD $ 999, of course, even the best iPhone camera, the sensor is approx. 9 times less than APS-C The ZV-E10. In the area While the ZV-E10 II's $999 price tag is a bit of a bargain compared to the $1,800 sensor-equipped FX30 cinema camera, it's worth noting that it's actually $200 more than the original ZV-E10's launch price.

So what do you get for an extra $200 over the original ZV-E10 (which you can still get for $700 less now)? In addition to the borrowed sensor, the new camera now uses the NP-FZ100 battery from its full-frame sibling to significantly extend battery life. The ZV-E10 II can also record 4K video at up to 30fps without cropping, whereas the previous model limited uncropped shooting to 24fps (still available when the ZV-E10 II is set up to 4K/60). E10 II). Battery life and higher-quality recording would definitely go a long way for a camera designed for long selfies, but the ZV-E10 II has to make some compromises to deliver those features while remaining compact. However, the new camera eschews a mechanical shutter (making it virtually useless for shooting moving subjects, as its sensors are not stacked or partially stacked), and lacks any form of in-body image stabilization (in favor of electronic stabilization). It still lacks a viewfinder, as well as the AI ​​processing chip found in its more expensive siblings to further improve autofocus. So while the ZV-E10 II has the kind of excellent autofocus that Sony Alphas have been known for, it's focused entirely on vlogging and video recording compared to other all-in-one hybrid models.

These shortcomings may be a deterrent for those willing to spend a few hundred dollars more and get Sony's similar but more versatile A6700, although the ZV-E10 II is designed to be easier to use and more affordable than Sony's A-line Alpha cameras. . Like previous ZV models, it has simplified controls that rely more on the touch interface, Cinematic Vlog mode for a one-touch, effortless cinematic look, and dedicated buttons for "Bokeh mode" and Product Showcase autofocus (the latter is a full-focus mode similar to YouTube videos where someone shows something in front).
