Today we’re looking at the Sony ZV-E10. This is an evolution of last year’s popular ZV-1, but with an APS-C sensor and interchangeable lenses. I'll be making some comparisons between the ZV-E10 and the a6100 and ZV-1.
On first glance this looks quite similar to an a6100 body. It has a hotshoe mount, and it inherits the special stereo 3-capsule internal mic from the ZV-1. It comes with the same hotshoe mounted deadcat which reduces wind noise when shooting outdoors. The camera also has mic and headphone jacks, as well as HDMI and USB-C ports. The camera can be charged via that USB port, including while it’s recording. It has no viewfinder, but it gains a fully articulating screen, allowing you to flip the screen out and around. A few other notable buttons are the defocus button and the Product Showcase button. There’s a single UHS-I SD card slot and finally, the ZV-E10 has a W series battery.
One of the main differences between the ZV-1 and the ZV-E10 is the sensor. On the ZV-E10 we have a 24 MP APS-C sensor. The reason why this is desirable over the ZV-1’s 1” sensor is that this APS-C sensor will have better low light performance than the ZV-1 when using an equivalent lens.
It also benefits from more shallow depth of field than the ZV-1.
Let’s take a look at the Defocus control. Pressing this is a one-touch way of switching between a clear in-focus background and a blurry background. This was on the ZV-1 as well, but the larger sensor on the ZV-E10 means the blurry background will be much more pronounced here.
Another feature that makes it’s way from the ZV-1 is the Product Showcase mode. This is a great feature - essentially it sets the autofocus so that if you hold something up to the camera it will quickly rack focus to the item. Once you remove the item, it will jump back to your face.
Let’s talk about the video features directly. The ZV-E10 can shoot 4K video at up to 30 fps. The video is 100 megabits per second. When shooting 4K 30 there is a slight crop, but that goes away when shooting 4K 24. It can also do 120 fps in full HD, or interval shooting for timelapse. There is no 30 minute record limit on the ZV-E10. You also have access to all of Sony’s picture profiles, namely S-Log 2 and 3 and HLG which are better for colour grading in post. There’s also Active Steadyshot mode for stabilisation, although note this introduces a fairly large 1.44x crop.
Let’s make some direct comparisons to the ZV-1, namely looking at whether the ZV-E10 straight up replaces the ZV-1. Of course there’s the larger sensor on the ZV-E10. However, the ZV-1 sensor actually has a much faster readout, which means that rolling shutter is a fair amount more pronounced on the ZV-E10 than on the ZV-1. The ZV-1 also has built-in ND filters, which is actually really handy for video shooting. An important point is that the kit lens that comes on the ZV-E10, the 16-50mm f/3.5-5.6 is actually inferior to the built-in lens on the ZV-1, which is a lot brighter at f/1.8-2.8. Also that kit lens is not going to give you much shallow depth of field, larger sensor or not. So if you really want to make use of the larger sensor on the ZV-E10, you need to go beyond the kit lens. Sony’s affordable 50mm f/1.8 is a great option here, but it does add to the cost and complexity of the setup. And finally, while the ZV-E10 is still quite compact, if size is an important factor the ZV-1 still definitely has it beat.
Overall the ZV-E10 is a great camera. It shoots excellent video and has a lot of really well-implemented and useful video shooting features like the fully articulating screen, product showcase and defocus modes, easy access to Slow & Quick shooting, no record limit, S-Log picture profiles, a high quality internal mic, mic and headphone jacks, and more. And all of this comes in a camera that is really quite competitively priced, starting at about $1100 Australian dollars body-only. Rather than replacing the ZV-1, this gives another very viable option for video shooters. The ZV-1 will still be best for those who appreciate small size, lower price, and who aren’t interested in getting more lenses in future. For those who will get more mileage out of a larger sensor and who are interested in getting additional lenses, particularly if using those lenses for shallow depth of field, then the ZV-E10 is the camera to get.
