Sony zv 1f vs sony zv 1 ii?
Both are 1-inch, 20.1-megapixel fixed-lens compacts with no stabilisation, so the choice comes down to framing. The Sony ZV-1 II (announced 2023) has a 6.9-18mm f/1.8-4 zoom, which frames like 19-48mm on full frame. That reach suits vlogging at arm's length and the occasional step back. The Sony ZV-1F (announced 2022) has a fixed 7.6mm f/2 lens, about 21mm equivalent, so it's simpler and wider.
My pick: get the ZV-1 II if you want to change framing without moving. Get the ZV-1F if you know you'll always shoot at that one wide view. If you're deciding whether a compact is the right kind of camera at all, Your first camera explains the trade-offs.
