Black Sony ZV-1 camera with red strap
Description
Yesterday around 3pm I was filming along Riverside Ave near the Sundial Bridge in downtown Redding and now I can’t find my black Sony ZV-1 compact camera. It’s in a gray neoprene case with a red strap that has a white Sony logo. The camera itself has a small dent on the top-left corner and there’s a blue sticker with my initials 'PK' on the bottom edge. I keep a 128GB microSD card and a spare battery inside the bag, plus a little wear on the case from travel. This camera is my main tool for freelance clips, so it really means a lot to me to get it back if anyone happens to spot it nearby.

How to safely get your item back
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the finder before meeting
- Ask them to describe a detail not shown in your listing, such as an engraving, scratch, or contents.
- Request a clear photo of the item from an angle you did not post.
- Do not pay any release, shipping, or storage fee.
- Do not share your full address until you have verified them.
Meet in a safe, public place
- Police stations, café entrances, transport hubs, and shop foyers all work.
- Meet during daylight hours where there is CCTV and foot traffic.
- Avoid private homes, car parks at night, or isolated locations.
Bring someone with you
- Tell a friend or family member where you are meeting and when.
- Share your live location with them during the handoff.
- For high-value items, consider contacting your local police station for advice first.
Keep communication on lostandfound.io
- Use the in-app message thread so there is a record if something goes wrong.
- Do not move to WhatsApp, SMS, or email until you have exchanged a verifying detail.
- Never share bank details, government ID numbers, or copies of your ID.
