Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Sony ZV-1F is significantly lighter (42g ) than the Sony RX100 IV which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX100 IV nor Sony ZV-1F provides any type of weather sealing in their bodies, so you have to give extra care especially when you are shooting outdoors.
