I had a sony CX 550v for 10 years , and loved it , it was time for
an upgrade , i like everything about the AX 53 except the built in
mic , The Mic on my CX 550 was better , it had a front and rear
facing Mic , the AX 53 is only front facing , so when the camera is facing away from me , my voice to sound as good, Other than that , The video quality is amazing , And now i use a sony lav mic , and everything sounds good again.

Bought this video camera to help shoot local football games. It has never failed and works great even during night games. The Zoom lens on this camera works great from the press box. Can read every players name on their jerseys.

This little camcorder is amazing. The picture is unbelievable. Small, light and well built. The image stabilization system on it does a great job of keeping it steady and honestly if you like walking around it it, it will be smooth. Very happy with this product.

We use this at church for capturing the service live. Does a very clean job of sending the feed to other viewing sources. Zoom is excellent. The menus are easily navigated.
The only challenge has been figuring out how to do the direct mic feed without getting static. The onboard mic is very good, but it sometimes picks up too much of everything.

This camera has been great so far. We bought it to replace an aging livestreaming camera for our church. This camera stopped down to 1080p has been fantastic.
My only issue is that you cannot adjust any menu items while streaming or the menu pops up on the stream.
We have used the time lapse features and filmed in 4K both have worked well.

I haven't taken much 4k video prior to buying this camera but since then have been finding excuses to video as much as possible. Video quality is great although you can't manually adjust more than one setting, which might be limiting. But for someone who just wants to record family and road trips, it's an easy, light, and simple camera that provides great image quality.

Found this camera as an open box item at my local Best Buy and got the unit for an extremely great price, but I do feel the regular sale price is really good for what you get in this prosumer camera. Won't get into super specifics but I have no regrets with the purchase. Simply just a great camera with great features for a great price.

The camera is lightweight, easy enough to operate. This requires separate purchase of memory card. You do need to read up on it to make some changes when using it freehand or on a tripod for the motion. When using the 4k video mode it does require the SDXC or better memory card. Only drawback is the video is very large compared to standard HD recording.
