    Best camera in this range for night vision. Looks great. The built in 5.1 microphone is fantastic. Google how to put it in 5.1. It’s not default. Love this camera!!

    I have been looking for a camera to video tape my sons sports. Needed something that had zoom incase he was across the field and I was up in the stands of a HS football field. The camera has not yet disappointed me. I can follow the action and works well.

    It was a good item however it didn’t work well with the no phone that I purchased, which was studio II. It would be better if it did since I paid 15% restocking fee to return

    The video quality on this has stood the test of time. Super close to what you get on the Sony A series, without the manual controls. I got lucky when I got this at $800.

    It's really good quality and easy to use. My only gripe is if you are filming someone their audio is great, but if you saw something while you're recording the audio only comes in through one speaker. So it sounds a little annoying when you play it back.

    I've been waiting to get this camera a while. Over the last few months I've had a chance to use someone else's and it was a blast. Videos are great and require no effort to light, and stills are so sexy. 10/10

    I can't get enough of this camera. Certainly hard to top it off. The only thing I wish it had a feature where I could completely mute the sound. Other than that, it's great.
