Sony ZV196271
The 12.1MP full-frame Exmor R sensor records oversampled 4K with direct pixel readout, delivering smooth 5x slow-motion and continuous autofocus. The included bundle accessories eliminate extra purchases, creating a ready-to-shoot kit for compact, lightweight video work. This camera fits video-first creators who prioritize sensor-driven slow-motion in a portable body, but its absence of stabilization limits handheld vlogging.
