Its good but I bought generics too.

Posted by: ripley101
Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this to add to the battery supply for my new Sony camera. The first time it charged I thought the battery life got exhausted rather quickly. The next charges seem to be holding up but in my view it seems to just barely last 200 shots. But i guess YMMV depending on the weather, temperature, and type of use.
I bought generic batteries to supplement as I could not bear the thought of paying another $56 for another battery,

Useful accessory
on January 5, 2024
Posted by: ripley101
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is a good accessory but I wish the tripod would extend to become a more usable tripod instead of just a hand-held device. Its solidly built, a bit too bulky for my taste, but I am getting the hang of it.
Its very easy for my fingers to press the wrong button and I actually mistakenly turned off the video recording of NYE festivities as I mistakenly pressed the off button while recording. So, lesson learned.
Only other advantage I see is that its compatible to other Sony products so its useful in my son's A7C.

The accessory is alright, I think it gets the job done. The plus value I see with this is that I can use it with other Sony cameras.

Capture the world the way you want. The ZV-1 II is an ideal all-round vlog camera that streamlines shooting on the go, allowing you to capture amazing quality video and audio without any complex setup. Compact and portable, it features a wide-angle 18-50mm zoom lens for versatile framing, a 1.0-type (1-inch) image sensor for great image quality, and an intelligent microphone for clear audio recording.

Good camera (Wish I had more $$ for another model)
on January 5, 2024
Posted by: ripley101
Verified Purchase:Yes
Its a good camera. I was really looking for a device that can take better quality photos than my iPhone.
Its got a 1-inch sensor that I like, as it has excellent low-light capabilities. Its portable/pocketable, which is what I need as I do travel. I don't have much use for its vlogging capability but its good to know I have it available.
I'm a little disappointed in the zoom range and I wish it could zoom up to 120 mm.
I bought this as a compromise on price, as I really did not have the money to spring for a 6700 APS-C or the A7C, both with multiple lenses and each setup will set me back about $2500. This camera, together with the accesory vlogging, subcardiod mic and extra batteries (off Amazon) set me back a little $1000. Its a bit pricey for what I consider as a glorified point and shoot.
I do have an issue with the movie button and the other buttons on top as my fingers were used to manipulate Nikon and older model Sonys and cellphones, so I kept messing up/triggering the video button by mistake. In time I will sort it out.
Is it worth it? I would say 90% yes, as a part of me still longed for either the A7C or the 6700 with the multiple lenses. But then again, budgets are real.

Installed my back up cam!

Mounted as advertised. The only bugaboo was the technicians insisted they were calling me to come in much earlier as several clients bailed out on the schedule but I was at work and unable to do so - that’s why there is such a thing called a scheduled appointment!

Great, but lacks BTS content!
on October 1, 2021
Posted by: ripley101
Verified Purchase:Yes
I wish I bought the 4K ultra HD, I mistakenly thought I only had a blu-ray player. The 4k ultra hd might also have contained more BTS content. I kinda wanted more BTS content, and a gag reel.
That said, this is a phenomenal accomplishment - showing more refined character development. It makes me mad that Josh Whedon gave us the chopped up version in the cinemas.

Surprisingly good!
on October 1, 2021
Posted by: ripley101
Verified Purchase:Yes
Surprisingly good device, but long-term usage (for me) needs to be tested. I have not used the device nor the data it captures - at least not yet and I don't want to use it because it means something ugly has happened. Still, a nifty little device for peace of mind when driving, especially where I live!

Phantasmagorical device!

Bought this as a graduation gift for my daughter. The ease of utility and portability broke new ground for her as a graphic artist. I sure wish I could have afforded and bought this earlier for her in college. Sadly, you pay the Apple premium to get one of these.
