Optimized Camera Design
Rear 3.0" 921.6k-dot touchscreen
LCD features a side flip-out design that is ideal for filming yourself or
taking selfies in a natural and intuitive manner.
Side-opening screen allows for a
redesigned top plate, which incorporates a directional 3-capsule microphone
that is specifically designed for forward-directional audio recording. Also, a
dedicated wind screen for the built-in mic is included to help achieve cleaner
audio when working outdoors. It attaches using the supplied wind screen
adapter, which mounts into the shoe mount on the top of the camera and holds
the wind screen to the side.
Both 3.5mm microphone and headphone
ports are also featured for more advanced audio recording, and the Multi
Interface Shoe also benefits audio recording capabilities. This accessory shoe
supports a digital audio interface that helps to achieve lower noise during
recording and also eliminates cable clutter and the need for external power
when working with compatible shoe-mounted mics.
Front tally lamp serves as a visual
indicator for when recording is occurring. Also, the LCD can display a red
border frame to further serve as an additional recording indicator.
Live streaming is possible directly
from the camera simply by connecting the camera to a computer or compatible
mobile device via USB, allowing the camera's video and audio capabilities to be
used for live social media and video conferencing. UVC and UAC standards are
supported for improved picture and sound quality during streaming.
·
Specialized Shooting Modes
Product Showcase setting is ideal for
vlogging and product review or demonstration videos and allows for quick and
smooth focus transitions between a subject's face and an object placed in front
of the lens.
Face-Priority AE detects the
subject's face and adjusts the exposure to ensure the face is depicted in an
ideal brightness, even if walking from a bright place into shade. The AE
technology also suppresses abrupt changes in exposure if the subject quickly
turns away from the frame to eliminate unexpected blown-out or extremely dark
shots.
Refined color science helps to
optimize skin tones for any subject, in both still and video modes, in order to
achieve a healthy and natural look that is inclusive of different ages, genders,
and ethnicity.
Soft Skin Effect can be used to
soften and smooth wrinkles or blemishes on a subject's face to create a
natural, smooth complexion. The default setting is Mid and can be adjusted to
Off, Low, or Hi. For longer takes, extended continuous video recording is
available when setting the Auto Power OFF Temp. function to High.
Background Defocus lets you
immediately switch to the maximum aperture setting of the attached lens, using
a custom button function, for isolating your subject using shallow depth of
field and bokeh.
Movie footage can be tagged with
specific metadata to indicate vertical recording orientation for direct
playback in smartphone apps or for other instances when vertical video playback
is needed.
Active SteadyShot is an advanced
image stabilization mode that ensures steady video while moving, even when
handheld shooting while walking.

Image Quality, Autofocus, and
4K Video
24.2MP APS-C Exmor CMOS Sensor and
BIONZ X Processor
A revised APS-C-format 24.2MP Exmor
CMOS sensor realizes smooth, nuanced image quality with minimal noise and high
sensitivity from ISO 100-32000, which can further be expanded to ISO 51200 for
working in low-light conditions.
The sensor dimensions are
approximately 3x larger than a 1" sensor, and up to 10x larger than some
smartphone sensors, enabling greater sensitivity, reduced noise, and improved
control over depth of field.
The sensor and BIONZ X processor
combination also avails a top continuous-shooting rate of 11 fps with AF and AE
and permits 14-bit raw file output for a wide tonal and color scale.
·
425-Point Fast Hybrid AF
The sensor's design incorporates a
425-point Fast Hybrid AF system, which blends both phase-detection and
contrast-detection methods to achieve focusing performance that is fast,
natural, and accurate.
The on-chip focusing system covers
84% of the sensor field and is capable of achieving focus in as little as 0.02
sec.
Real-time Eye AF can prioritize
focusing on human or animal eyes for ensured sharpness when making portraits.
When selected, this function is activated by half-pressing the shutter button
and you can further choose to prioritize either the right or left eye.
Real-time tracking utilizes AI-based
algorithms to automatically recognize and track moving subjects. If Face/Eye
Priority AF is on, this tracking method will further track a subject's eye or
face in real time with seamless changing depending on the status of the moving
subject.
·
4K Video Recording
UHD 4K video recording is possible up
to 30p and uses full pixel readout with 6K oversampling to yield greater detail
with reduced moiré and aliasing. Full HD 1080p recording is also supported in
frame rates up to 120 fps, and both resolutions utilize the 100 Mb/s XAVC S
format contained within an MP4 wrapper with 4:2:0 sampling. In addition to
high-resolution internal recording, uncompressed HDMI output also enables the
use of an optional external recorder for clean 4K recording with 4:2:2
sampling.
No recording limit for movie
recording, allowing for longer takes and uninterrupted shooting of live events.
Affording extensive customizable
color and gamma controls, the ZV-E10 allows users to adjust the gamma, black
level, knee, color level, and more. Use the same S-Log2 Gamma Curve that is
found on high-end Sony Cinema cameras, which squeezes up to 1300% more dynamic
range into the video signal then traditional Rec. 709, for increased
post-production flexibility. HLG (Hybrid Log-Gamma) support is also available,
along with the BT.2020 color space, for recording within a wide color gamut
and, in addition to S-Log2, S-Log3 is also available for producing an effective
14-stop dynamic range with increased grading control in the shadow to mid-tone
regions of the image.
Slow & Quick (S&Q) mode
allows shooters to capture Full HD video at specified steps between 1-120 fps.
These settings will allow you to slow down action as well as speed up a
slow-moving scene.
Interval shooting mode is ideal for
creating time-lapse movies with the aid of Imaging Edge software. Intervals can
be selected between 1-60 seconds for recording up to 9999 sequential free.
Also, in-camera battery charging is possible via the USB port using a portable
battery to benefit long interval shooting sessions.

Camera Body Design
Built for portable applications and
one-handed use, the camera incorporates a large right-hand grip and intuitive
physical control layout.
Grip design, along with the
vari-angle LCD, also suits working from front-facing angles, such as when
vlogging or taking selfies.
·
Integrated zoom lever surrounds
the shutter button and works in conjunction with select Power Zoom lenses.
Vari-angle screen can be closed
against the body, with the screen facing inward, to automatically power off the
camera even when the power switch is set to 'On'.
Dedicated Movie Record, Background
Defocus, Product Showcase, and S&Q buttons provide direct access to common
features used by vloggers.
Included NP-FW50 battery is rated for
up to 440 shots or approximately 125 minutes of recording per charge. Power can
also be supplied to the camera through the USB Type-C port or by using the
optional AC-PW20AM AC adapter.
·
Wireless and Sharing
Built-in Bluetooth and Wi-Fi
connectivity enables instant transferring of imagery to mobile devices for
direct sharing online to social networking, via email, and to cloud storage
sites. Once connected, the linked mobile device can also display a live view
image on its screen and, using Smart Remote Control, remotely control the
camera's shutter release.
The ZV-E10 is also compatible with
the Movie Edit add-on from the Imaging Edge mobile app.
Bluetooth connectivity enables connecting to the
optional GP-VPT2BT Wireless Shooting Grip for efficient camera control.
