Customers are saying

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.

    I find this a decent camcorder for the average consumer but I use it in my business and the video quality sucks on closeup. I purchased it 2 weeks ago and used it for 2 hours and boxed it back up. I’m returning it today
