Good for the price
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Ok so this is not 4K Nd far from the best value but for under two hundred dollars you can make it work well. I bought several items to improve the audio since you can’t hook a mic to it. You can hook it up to a 15ft micro usb to allow for tripod usage with out using the battery. When you buy this do yourself the favor and buy the Sony charger and extra battery also buy no greater than 64 gigs byte cars because anything bigger does not work. Again if you are recoding in HD beware 74gig card is the biggest l.

Great compact lightweight camcorder
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got this as a gift for my daughter. She wanted a lightweight camcorder for use in horse training, without the 'bells and whistles' of an action camcorder. Relatively inexpensive, and it does everything that she wants from it.

Great entry level camera
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This camera is great for shooting simple videos for family and friends. It has everything you need to get started. It doesn't have the ability to use an external microphone, which would be nice. The zoom is great and it shoots good in low light.
