According to our mirrorless camera expert
The Sony ZV-E 10 + E PZ 16-50mm f/3.5-5.6 OSS is a compact mirrorless camera for the online content creator, product reviewer, and travel fanatic. The 16-50mm zoom range of the lens makes it suitable for a wide range of subjects. You can capture landscapes or close-up footage. The model has an APS-C sensor for sharp photos and videos. You can record in 4K resolution with 30 fps so you get detailed videos of your travels, for example.
Vlog functionsIn Portrait Mode, you can easily record videos for your social media channels. You can record in the right format right away for your Instagram or TikTok. For a high image quality, transfer the footage in 4K resolution to your phone. The Auto Exposure has face priority, so your face is always properly lit. If you walk outside from a dark room, the camera adjusts the lighting.
Good image stabilizationYou can record stable footage handheld thanks to Active Mode. In this mode, the camera crops the image of your recordings even better to stabilize them. The vibrations from your hand are less clearly visible compared to the standard digital stabilization.
Product Showcase SettingThe Product Showcase Setting is useful for product reviewers. You can show a product in your video and the camera recognizes the product right away. It switches the focus from your face to the product. The background then becomes blurry, so the focus is on the product.

As a lucky tester, I was selected to test the Sony ZV-E10. The ZV-E10 has been marketed as a compact device for people who like to travel with an emphasis on vlogging. I have tested this device for a period of 2 weeks.
General impression: The Sony ZV-E10 is indeed a compact, lightweight system camera, it fits comfortably in the hand and shoots beautiful pictures, but is better suited for filming. The camera was delivered including a tripod, which can be connected via bluetooth. This tripod is very handy for vlogging/filming, fits comfortably in the hand and has physical buttons for taking pictures, filming, zooming and the C1 button to switch the Bokeh effect on and off. Bokeh is the effect of a soft, blurred background that you get when you photograph or film an object.
Physical Buttons: The physical buttons are located on the top and back of the camera.
Top: On/Off button 1 button to switch between shooting, filming and S&Q (slow motion & quick) C1 (bokeh) shutter button Zoom To film Rotary knob (menu) Rear end: Menu Fn (function) Jog wheel with various options (iso-dispay self-timer) preview BV: the button for deleting photos is the button for the product presentation mode during filming and photography.
Functions: Auto Exposure: Auto exposure with facial recognition priority - always keep your face well lit, even in less lit rooms
Active Mode: for the best image stabilization during filming, you can set the mode to active mode, the image will be cropped as a result, but despite the cropping, the image will be much more stable and gives a more pleasant and calmer effect when filming.
Webcam: You can use this camera as a webcam during meetings without additional software. You can do this by choosing USB streaming in the menu and connecting the camera to the PC/laptop via the USB-C connector], and this works immediately and the image quality is many times better than the internal webcam of your laptop.
Product showcase: product showcase setting, ensures that an object is in focus and remains focused on the object.
S&Q s&q mode slow and quick film with 1 to 100 fps, with this you can make timelapses or slow motion images filming in 1 fps ensures that the images are played back 50x faster.
This camera is ideal for online content such as Facebook, Instagram and Tiktok. After shooting your photo or film, you can transfer the content directly and easily to your smartphone via the camera's WiFi function. By tilting the camera a quarter, portrait mode will automatically be selected, which is useful for your uploads to your favorite online platform The biggest difference between an SLR camera and a system camera is that an SLR has a mirror system and a system camera does not. An SLR camera has an optical viewfinder, the system camera is more compact and has a digital viewfinder. The big advantage that a system camera entails is that you can choose from a large number of different lenses that meet your needs. the disadvantage is that you have to carry multiple lenses. I personally find the battery on the small side, especially if you turn the camera on and off more often, the battery life will decrease considerably. This makes a 2nd battery recommended when you make a day trip. The screen is suitable for limited touch possibilities, for example you can use the touchscreen to focus your photos (autofocus) but you cannot use touch to scroll through the menu, you have to use the physical buttons for this. The Sony Zv-E10 features 3 microphones, by using three microphones, the ZV-E10 can determine which direction the sound is coming from and thus adjust itself to deliver the best audio quality.
In the 2nd week I was able to test the camera better and a number of things that turned out to work less well with frequent use. For example, the tripod that was fairly easy to connect via the menu turned out to lose its connection quite often and was therefore unavailable during crucial moments, so that pictures were not shot. There is also no physical (quick) dial in which you can quickly switch between different modes. I only missed this function in the 2nd week when I started shooting more outdoors. With this camera, these functions are in the menu and it takes some searching and it takes a long time to change the mode in the beginning, it may be that it will get better in the future the more you work with the camera.

The Sony EV-E10 is a class video camera and not just for vlogging. I mainly use it as a travel camera for video. You can easily take these with you. I deliberately didn't buy the 'kit' lens, it really doesn't belong on such a quality camera. Save up for the excellent Sigma 16 mm. The video is comparable or even slightly better than on my excellent A7III. Also the camera mic. does its job, it has been well thought out. The tiltable screen offers additional options, although it is sometimes difficult to see in the sun. Due to the compact weight, it can also be used on smaller gimbals and it really becomes an outdoor camera when traveling.

I was looking for a decent camera for the GP of the Netherlands with which I could both vlog and work with a camera woman. And the ZV-E has exceeded all my expectations. Even for a layman like me, this camera offers plenty of options. If you're an expert on film cameras, I can imagine that it will take you hours to fully play this camera out. Although I worked with an external microphone for the recordings, the quality of the supplied wind microphone is better than expected. For recordings in a (wind) quiet room, an extra microphone is not even a must.
In addition, the camera contains a clear menu for a layman like me.
I can therefore only say that I am a satisfied user!
