    I own an SD Sony VX Triple CCD camera (prosumer) and bought this camera as firewire connections to new MacBook Pro laptops are none to be found and I had an urgent need. The quality of the video is excellent and the camera was super easy to use. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a good quality camera at a reasonable price.

    Excellent entry level 4k camcorder

    This camcorder first released in 2016 still holds up quite nicely. It has pletha of settings to adjust, and allows for steaming the recording via wifi straight to your phone or computer. The battery packs are easily swapped and last a decent amount of time. The only downside I found is that in low light conditions the recording seems choppy when set To 4k but fine if set to a lower resoluton. Overall at the current price point and with its feature set this is a great choice.

    Excellent deal. You can really see the difference in quality vs. 1080p. I use it mainly shooting Soccer videos. Recommend you buy an extra backup battery and memory card is 4K does require more power and storage capabilities.

    Great overall camera. Auto focus works great in full light although I wish the camera operated a bit better in lower light conditions without nightvision. I am happy with the purchase so far and look forward to continue recording with this camera.
