40 Sony ZV-E10 Mirrorless Camera with 16-50mm Lens (Black)

The Sony ZV‑E10 is a feature‑rich APS‑C mirrorless camera tailored specifically for vloggers, content creators, and hybrid shooters who want more flexibility and image quality than a smartphone without the complexity of larger professional systems. It pairs a 24.2 MP APS‑C Exmor CMOS sensor with Sony’s E‑mount lens ecosystem, giving you access to a huge range of lenses for video and photography. Bundled with the Sony E PZ 16‑50mm f/3.5‑5.6 OSS II power zoom lens, the camera offers a versatile wide‑to‑standard zoom perfect for everyday shooting, interviews, walk‑and‑talk videos, and lifestyle vlogs.

A fully‑articulating 3.0″ side‑flip touchscreen LCD makes self‑recording and framing intuitive, while a directional 3‑capsule built‑in microphone with included windscreen ensures clearer audio for front‑facing subjects without extra gear. Creator‑friendly features like Background Defocus, Product Showcase, and robust Real‑Time Eye AF & Tracking help automate focus and subject recognition so you can concentrate on telling your story.
