Sony ZV1 vs Fuji X-t200 Vs Somy A6100 - better choice??!?!

Active area of the sensor on NX500 in 4k mode is roughly the same size as 1" sensor in ZV1. ZV1 being newer and optimized for video should mean that it produces better video. Plus you get a standard zoom range without the crop.
Not a camera for me (eg. I use flash heavily and film myself barely) but it's a very nice package for its target audience.
Have fun using it
Thanks! I'm not sure in the target audience either as I don't Vlog..
But I do shoot a lot of video and rely on autofocus and in this respect it seems to tick the boxes. Having the fast lens of the older RX100 versions is good for me, as is the ND filter to be able to keep the shutter speed down.
It's early days but I'm impressed so far.
For me I'm still thorn between the Zv1, and the Sony A6100, or the Fuji X-t200, mainly because of low light, and shallow DOF.
My conclusions are:
The Sony A6100 is a better camera, it has better low light, but it is larger, and the articulated LCD is not as good. Plus is more expensive, if you buy a better lens... and has no HFR video.
The Fuji X-T200 has better low light, better LCD, but terrible AF.
So points towards de ZV1, great IQ up to 1600 ISO, great LCD, more compact and has HFR. I heard the 240 fps is great (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v8qIu1n_luw&ab_channel=StephenJReid) . My only concern is low light, and the fact that I love Bokeh in video. Why buying a mirrorless camera, if it wasn't for bokeh?!?
I just wish the Fuji has HFR, and had good AF for video...
Also, I wanna shoot mainly in 1080p out-of the box, I just wish there was a comparison between these cameras in 1080p. I know that 1080p on Sony cameras are really soft. Do you know if the 1080p is oversampled from 4K? Like the new Sony A7s III?
By the way I know you have the RX100, are the HFR, in 470fps, and 960fps, any good? Do you have examples? Can we enhance it, somehow? Even the new Sony A7S II don't have those modes.
Thanks
Here is a great review of the Zv1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BLK1j3uiNgo&ab_channel=iPhonedo
