Sony ZV-1
The 24MP 1-inch CMOS sensor delivers strong image quality for stills, but the 1080p video and lack of stabilization limit its modern utility. The included accessory kit with a 32GB card and extra battery provides immediate out-of-box usability. This camera is best for still photographers who prioritize sensor quality over video features and need a complete starter bundle.
