I got mine at B&H and only paid $1,899 because I ordered it and waited patiently for it to arrive. I'd also order it at Adorama or at Crutchfield. Amazon offers it from third parties at higher prices, but at least it can ship soon. You can get it used if you know How to Win at eBay, or get it used at Amazon, but in either case you'll pay less by ordering it new at B&H as I did and be willing to wait for it to arrive. Don't wait to find this in stock anywhere; when they come in they ship right out to people like me who ordered them in advance, without ever showing as "in stock," so order yours today and be patient for it to arrive.

Also in white, also comes as a kit with 28-60mm lens and that kit also comes in white. Also at Adorama.
The ZV-E1 is a 12MP 4K Full-Frame no-viewfinder camera optimized for selfie run-and-gun video.
Sony's pretty excited about this camera because it comes closer to how well the iPhone just works for video.
Sony's pitch mostly emphasizes how many faces it can identify for autofocus and video frame rates and so forth — all number claims. Your video's not going to look any better or get more likes at 4K/60 than it will at 1,080/24. All that matters is the quality of your story and how well you tell it, not your frame rate or pixel depth.
My curiosity is if it deals with real-world suboptimal lighting as well as the magic HDR of iPhone that makes auxiliary lighting mostly obsolete, and if the ZV-E1 has stabilization as good as iPhone which renders gimbals obsolete as well. 4K/120 and 1,080/240 are promised later in a firmware update.
The other huge difference is format. If you want everything sharp and in focus, iPhone does that best with its small sensor and short lenses. If you want soft backgrounds, the larger sensor of the ZV-E1 has an advantage, although iPhone's CINEMATIC mode will do the same thing.
The other real-world question is if the ZV-E1 can clairvoyantly keep everything in focus all by itself as well as iPhone does. When we shoot anything in Hollywood it's always all manual focus, with one guy, the focus puller, in charge of nothing but pulling focus back and forth between actors. You need exceptional care in focus with the limited depth of field of larger format cameras, while iPhones with their smaller sensors, larger depths-of-field and active LiDAR focus systems always nail it.

What? A second 85/1.2? This 85 DS is no BS: it means "Defocus Smoothing" which means this is an ultra-bokeh (soft, smooth background) lens. It's ultra-ultra sharp, and the defocussed parts are extra smooth and creamy. Its images look three-dimensional because of the huge contrast between sharp subject and soft background.
