Amateur video bloggers have a new best friend with Sony’s full-frame 12MP 35mm ZV-E1 camera, complete with 4K recording at 120 frames per second, and peak res at 24, 30 and 60fps
This seems to be Sony’s best vlogging-centric unit yet, set to launch in May, helping content creators take their game to a whole new level.
Adding to the appeal, there are a range of AI features, such as automatic framing so the subject is always framed optimally.
There’s also multi face recognition and subject recognition tech to allow a solo crew to utilise zoom tools so it seems the presenter is actually being followed.
As Sony say, “Even when the camera is mounted on a tripod, for example, the framing is continually adjusted so that the recorded footage looks like the subject is being followed by an experienced camera operator, ideal for a single-person shooting scenario.”
They also add that the AI-based framing tool rocks for recording such things as interviews, music gigs and cooking situations.
“Using AI-based subject recognition technology, the Auto Framing feature automatically crops the frame to the users desired level, keeping the subject in a prominent position when shooting video.”
It also looks damn cool…
