Customers love the Handycam CX405 Flash Memory Camcorder's video quality and ease of use, frequently praising its lightweight design and compact size, making it ideal for travel. While some users noted the need to purchase a memory card separately and mentioned limitations in low-light performance and features, the positive feedback on image quality and user-friendliness outweighs these concerns.

Great Camera!!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great Camera, Far superior pictures from an I- phone. Filming is steady and stable. Used it in Florida and then the snow in New York worked well in both! Really clear photos and fits in a coat pocket.

Great camera for a beginner.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is my first video camera. Not too shabby. For the price, you can't go wrong. Now, if you have experience with camera and cash go for a better resolution. This is great for beginners.

Very good camera for the money. Easy to use
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great telephoto ratios, able to pick up details at distance though a tripod is necessary to prevent jiggle. Full 180 degree rotation of screen makes it easy to shoot from various positions.

Simple to use

Great camcorder
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After years of dealing with cassettes, I needed a camcorder which wasn't limited to an hour of recording per tape. This camcorder with it's ability to take various size cards has been great for me as I record events.

Low Price Great Videos
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.While this camcorder can't do what the expensive camcorders can do, given the price it is fantastic. Easy to use and it picks up sound extremely well and the videos are great.

Nice little & light camera.. Takes great video
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Perfect for the kids sport games... I bought a second battery to have on hand . The 64 GB disk haas plenty of storage, but the battery only lasts about 2 -3 hours worth of gametime. Good camera overall

Good Cam
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love how light weight this camcorder is and the zoom helps you to see things really far without distortion. The menu is easy to navigate. You don't need to buy any other cords to hook the camcorder up your HDTV or computer; it comes with all of it! The battery is good for over 7 hours and will automatically shutdown after 30 secs of non-use, or after closing the window. My complaints are unless the person you are recording is close or speaking slightly louder than their inside voice the recorder will not pick up their voice, but if you have loud speaking friends or family this should not worry you. These are minor issues. The biggest problem I have is the USB charging wire attached to the camcorder. If that wire brakes there is no other way to charge the camcorder... Even with these complaints I would still recommend buying it. 4 stars because of the attached USB wire.

Great for beginners and for streamers
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am using this as a streaming cam for pinball. And for that you need at least an 720p @ 60fps. This was the only affordable camera that does it well.
