Really like this camera
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.WE bought this camera to replace our old existing tape camera, and after a couple times using in (during our cruise and to tape some family events) it works so great. Easy to use, easy to hold, really a good product. Have loved our previous Sony products (televisions, walkmans, etc.) but this one goes to the front. Even easy to download our videos online, so other family members can access it. Definitely happy I purchased.

You get what you pay for
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this to livestream our Wednesday night service that doesn't take place in our main building. We have to zoom and the lighting isn't that great, as a result the picture quality of this camera isn't spectacular. But that's to be expected since this camcorder is around $200. AND! I knew that purchasing this camera. Just needed something to get the job done without breaking the bank. When it comes to livestreams (churches mainly) sound quality is going to be more important the visual (if I had to choose). So if you're looking for something to get you started, this is a good camera to start with. I should note that I'd imagine that the video quality would drastically improve IF I didn't have to zoom in so much.

Good for the money
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I feel like it’s a nice camcorder for basic recording and for those on a budget. There are things my older camcorders had that I wished was on this one but this one gets the job done for a good price

Good all around cam
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased this to film youth football games. Camera has sufficient zoom to film from one goal post to the other. Resolution also allows for video editing and close ups without losing picture clarity or pixelating. Easy to use and has MP4 option for easy access without converting. Very easy to use 3 button control (zoom, record, photo), simple to navigate menus, and battery easily makes it through 1.5 hr continuous recording.

Great Basic Camera for most purposes
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am really glad the sales associate recommended this camera. Not only was it reasonably priced, but it serves all of my needs... The only thing I didn't like is that the instructions were not real clear... So many foreign countries are providing "picture" instructions and you can't always tell what the picture is representing, so I had trouble figuring out how to use it at first... but I'm fine now...
