Sony Alpha ZV-E10 APS-C Mirrorless Interchangeable Lens Vlog Camera (Pivoting Screen for Vlogging, 4K Video, Real-Time Eye Auto Focus) Black

It is a very good camera and if you can get a deal on it, then take it as it is definitely worth it

This camera is a game changer, but I made a mistake getting it without the lense and it won't work without the lense, so better still by the one that comes with a lense and enjoy it. I love it and it's still working perfectly even after almost 2 years

Sony Alpha ZV-E10LThe Sony Alpha ZV-E10L is an amazing entry level camera, now for me this was a big purchase but I needed a new camera for content creating and other projects I had going so I needed a camera with a lot of video features, access to manual settings and lenses this camera has all of that and some features such as a flip screen I really wanted but I also didn't mind sacrificing few features such as sensor and view finder.Product Used forContent Creation, Social Media, Light Photography / Filmography and for educational / test footage (Learning to Video and Colour edit with RAW and LUT configs).Likes / ProsSony might make expensive products but there's a reason for that they are very well paid, they last long and offer a lot of features their audience is after. This camera has amazing selection of settings and features, The Kit Lens well-worth the purchase as a first zoom lens, Video quality is outstanding (just takes little tweak of settings).Dislikes / ConsIt's not without it's flaw in the world of camera this is budget / entry level for a Lens based camera with this quantity of features as such expect some flaws and limitations but for it's price range it's some of the best quality product I've found (I sent another camera back, I should of done more research and read more reviews). The stabilisation on this camera is a huge problem if you're shooting footage on the move, the stabilisation gets to the point in order for it to be effective it adds such a huge crop makes me just want to use my phone, if shooting footage on the go i suggest a gimbal to support you (adding to the cost) and the battery life is some of the worst I've ever seen, invest in 3-4 or more space batteries or a plug in battery kit otherwise you will run into problems quickly.Summary & VerdictDepending on your use this is the ideal camera with amazing features, can do a lot with the functionality (does it well but excels at none, hence the price of other cameras £2000+) and for me it's great camera for my uses but also gives me an idea of features I use the most, need the most and if I was to purchase an upgrade I know exactly which features i would focus on making the next purchase even easier. If using for content creation and social media this might be only camera you ever need depending on the content being made. Well worth the expense but as with most things do your research and ensure the product is right fit for you.

I'm going to repeat what most YouTube videos say on it really, plus some bits they don't mention...It's worth noting that I use it mainly for video rather than pictures.It's great for situations where it's a static setting, e.g. recording in a fixed location or as a high quality webcam. It is not good for fast or even medium speed moving subjects.I use it for recording first person YouTube footage and B-Roll and it's ideal for that.Here are my main irritations:One extreme disappointment is that the USB-C connection to your PC only allows streaming at 720p, which is one of the main reasons I bought this model, but didn't realise you couldn't stream at 4K or even 1080p. So I had to buy an external capture card and HDMI cable.The second most annoying thing is that the power circuit doesn't seem to be well designed, as the battery discharges even when it's plugged into a high power USB-C port. This means that if you use it as a webcam then you'll need to change the battery after 4 hours or so, even though it's been plugged in! I'm certainly not risking one of the cheap dummy batteries or paying for the official one.The third thing is it's remote control capabilities. The software is a mess and confusing, with lots of different protocols and connection methods, but none work well and some of which such as connecting your camera to your home WIFI network is not really documented at all. (Only connecting to camera as an AP is) The remote that you can buy for it only has a couple of buttons and so doesn't really leverage the functionality of the camera.The HDMI and USB ports block the screen too, so getting the camera into the right mode when it's on a desk mount squeezed between 2 monitors is very challenging. All I want to do it set focus, zoom in and out and start and stop recording remotely from my desk; and at least for me I do not find this easy to do.Having said all of that I still give it 4 stars and recommended for YouTubers because it's relatively cheap for a downsampled 6K to 4K camera with good picture clarity. It's night and day between this and what's considered a fairly decent webcam, the Elgato FaceCam.
