Still, I love Sony zv-1, it's just a perfect device for shooting on auto, I only wish mics were better ... and that's why Panasonic intrigues me as well.

    Add on how he Sony weighs half of this, the Sony is a better choice for on the go vlogging.

      Not bad at all, a $750 4K device M4/3 sensor and kit lens. At that price point, it looks more attractive than the ZV1.

          You can "solve" it on Panasonic with different lens.

            Larger sensor, but it is heavily cropped for image stabilization.

            Imo the Sony is better. Plus it's lighter, thus makes more sense for vlogging.

                Just as I thought about getting the Sony ZV-1, this comes in. That M43 sensor is definitely hard to ignore since it's way larger than the 1-inch sensor in Sony's vlogging camera, not forgetting the Nokia OZO spatial sound system.

                        This is just a general purpose camera, offering no vlogging specific enhancement.

                                If they still have the crappy contrast detect AF and the huge crop in 4K then no thanks, I will pass this 😒

                                  by the time vlogging start to pay off these people already have there gear for it. 750 for a camera is really expensive for just starting vlogging
