Camera Recommendations
I'm looking for a camera for my wife who records and posts videos on YouTube, Instagram and Pinterest. I'm torn between the GoPro Hero 11 and the Sony ZV-1F. She mostly records indoors but will sometimes record when shopping in stores. Any thoughts on these two cameras, or other cameras you'd recommend?

I have the Hero 11, and there isnt a downside to it, but you need a good pc for the higher quality videos. (4k+)
@a3dannisytuber That's good info! What's your definition of a good pc?
I did hear some things about the hero 11 overheating. Have you experienced this?
no, I haven't had that happen to me
like a good graphics card, and something that runs smoothly
Understood. What type of content do you shoot with it?
also going around to places id recommend the gopro because you can attach it to a head or chest strap
main riding fourwheelers, fishing, and playing football
no trouble
with the gopro during any of these
Makes sense. Have you recorded any footage inside issuing the go pro?
i recorded running around when i first got it
i mean
not really though
hero 10 is good too
i got a deal 400 dollars on the gopro website with the premium pass
Premium pass? Is that the subscription?
yes
I did see the subscription thing. $50 a year for unlimited cloud storage and discounts on products.
its worth it
Do you have any attachments for the go pro?
my dad paid some of it, as im still a teenager, but he said if i wanted to continue the subscription i would pay for it.
That's nice of him
i do, a head strap, an extra battery, a tripod, and a clip
and another storage hardrive
Cool. Are there any attachments you want but don't have right now?
the chest strap
nothing else i dont think
Cool. Thanks for the info!

you should get the regular zv1 not the F as the zv1 has a 24 to 70 f/1.8 to 2.8 the zv1f has a 20mm f/2 I have the regular zv1 it's great and the zv1 can go to iso 12800 vs the f at 6400 max
The go pro doesn't have manual exposure like aperture shutter and iso and no zoom lens the zv1 has more creative control and has a 2.9x optical zoom
