Instead, it only has 425-point contrast detection system, which although generally quite snappy, doesn't allow for the same level of for the fast and smooth subject tracking that phase detection AF supports.īoth of them offer Sony's excellent real-time tracking system, including Eye AF for humans/animals for stills and humans for video, plus the Face Priority autoexposure (AE) function, which detects and prioritises the subject’s face and adjusts the exposure to ensure the face is depicted at an ideal brightness. The ZV-1F notably lacks the Hybrid AF sensor that utilises up to 315-phase detection points and 425-contrast detection points, as found on the more expensive ZV-1 and ZV-1 II. On the ZV-1 II the zoom can be operated by using the touchscreen in addition to using the physical rocker switch on top of the camera, with selectable zoom steps again running from 1x / 1.5x / 2x / 4x plus icons for W (wide-angle) and T (telephoto) to quickly change the angle of view at the press of an onscreen icon. Sony also provide the Clear Image Zoom digital zoom function on the ZV-1 II which increases the focal range from 50-100mm "without any appreciable loss in image quality". This uses a mixture of Sony's Clear Image Zoom and digital zoom to quickly change the angle of view.
With just a touch of ZOOM icon on the the LCD panel, you can select from 1.0x/1.5x/2.0x/4.0x option. The ZV-1F may not have a zoom lens, but that hasn't stopped Sony from incorporating what they've called a touch-controlled step zoom for both stills and video. The new ZV-1 II has an even wider 18-50mm f/1.8-4 equivalent zoom lens that's slightly better suited to vlogging, particularly when holding the camera at arm's length for selfie recording and group shots. This usefully offers a wide angle of view that makes it very suitable for vlogging and selfies, but loses out on the extra versatility of a zoom. The ZV-1F has a fixed focal length 20mm f/2 lens. This is the single biggest difference between these two cameras.

The ISO range of the Sony ZV-1F and ZV-1 II is the same, ISO 100 to ISO 12,800, which can be expanded by one stop to 25,600 using the special Multi Noise Reduction mode. Processorīoth cameras use exactly the same powerful Bionz X image processor, which allows the ZV-1 II to shoot at up to 24 images per second using the electronic shutter and the ZV-1F to shoot at a still very respectable 16fps. The ZV-1F has a different sensor, though, which only supports contrast-detection auto-focusing (425 points), rather than the hybrid phase/contrast detection AF system found in the ZV-1 II.
Sensorīoth the ZV-1F and the ZV-1 II use a similar 20.1 megapixel, 1-inch (13.2 mm x 8.8 mm) stacked Exmor RS sensor, so the image quality is essentially the same.
We're bringing you this in-depth Sony ZV-1 II vs Sony ZV-1F head-to-head comparison to help you choose between them. So how does the new ZV1 II differ from the cheaper ZV1F, and which of these cameras is the right one for you?
Now the new Mark II version of the ZV-1 has been launched in May 2023. The ZV-1F compact vlogging camera was launched in October 2022 as a more affordable version of 2020's popular ZV-1, with both offering lots of features designed specifically for vlogging and content creation.
