Sony reveals the more vlogger-friendly ZV-E10 II

It’s been three years since debuted , a camera it targeted at vloggers, so it’s high time that model got some upgrades. The company just announced the mirrorless ZV-E10 II. this variant adds some new features while retaining those that creators liked from the original, including a background defocus capability and the vari-angle flip screen.

The ZV-E10 II has a 26MP Exmor R CMOS sensor, an upgrade from the 24MP sensor in the original model. The larger-capacity battery (the NP-FZ100 found in ) may be a more compelling update. Sony claims that, with this battery, users will be able to shoot up to 195 minutes of video continuously.

Other features include a cinematic vlog setting that automatically optimizes the aspect ratio, frame rate and autofocus transition speed for a more cinematic look to videos, Sony claims. There’s also a new vertical-oriented user interface and upgraded “connectivity for easy live streaming and data transfer,” according to the company. All of this and the camera still weighs just 377 grams.

The ZV-E10 II will be available at the end of this month and it will cost $999 for the body only. If you’d prefer a $1,099 bundle with a new PZ 16-50mm f/3.5-5.6 OSS II lens, you’ll need to wait until early August. The lightweight kit lens offers autofocus and video performance improvements over the previous version, according to Sony.
