after looking into a lot of cameras and camcorders, for what we needed this not only fit the price but had a lot of features we wanted. I have had the ax43 for about two weeks now and i am still loven the camcorder so much that i want to get one more. The only thing that would be better is the 6600 for the XT4, witch cost more and at the time are not out yet.

We use this camera at our church and it has been amazing! The picture quality is excellent. We use it to record livestreams for Facebook and YouTube.

It does what it's supposed to! Quality footage and images with multiple shooting options.

This Camcorder is perfect for me on the go with the kids and the dog. The fact it can double as a camera and takes excellent pictures. In fact because of the optical stabilization it takes great pictures without a tripod and a nice optical zoom it makes it really cool. I've included an example of a picture taken in a poorly lit room from a distance of my keyboard. Did a nice job. I like the fact it was also easy to pair with my phone for remote control of recording/pictures and send them to the phone. Otherwise taking videos of the kids was really easy and have been coming out great even as they move and run. Also it had a mode to take stop motion, which I've always wanted to do and that was cool. Basically this is a cool camcorder with better image you can get from a phone and easy to use. I do highly recommend you follow the recommendations for an SD card for recording. The battery seems to last enough to get me through what I need. I honestly admit I haven't stressed it trying to get 160 minutes of video in one shot, but getting a bunch 10 minute videos/pictures I can get through the day without issue. I've been very happy to carry this around to capture memories of my kids and the video looks great that makes the grandparents who are remote being able to enjoy it on the TV with great clarity. It is really easy and if you need a camera to capture pictures and take videos this definitely seems to be the one.

The price and the quality of the videos are amazing, I recommended for Hunting video.
