Good camara

Ah, it's ok
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Pretty decent, clear footage, nice pictures, dual recording formats, mic is clear, also what I like, you can set it to capture snap shots with just your SMILE while you are shooting a video. What I HATE is there is no pause button, videos have to be later pasted together using a editor app. More HATE When the battery dies, oh boy, you can't use the camera while it is charging - the power cord is only for charging. or I haven't figured how to do it yet. I do food videos, we wanna EAT! so I don't always get to shoot the final footage after the battery dies - and that sucks. My battery does not last the 115 minutes the information says it does. 9 Days after the expiration date to return, I realized, it was NOT for me, I NEEDED MORE CAPABILITIES. Therefore I Strongly recommend you use it frequently within the 15 days, so you are sure its for you.

Great camera for the price
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was surprised at all the features of this camera based on it's price. The 60x zoom is no joke either. I can literally read licence plates from over a block away. The files it makes are really easy to upload to my YouTube page also.

Little Camera Big Result like Pro
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.ok guys, before make a purchase I read reviews always from 1 stars. Just wondering why people make 1,2 or 3 star. some of them say very light, too little and cheap made. finally I bought this camera because the price was so low on blackfriday, and still thinking want to return it before opening the box.one day my phone was no more space for video taking, then we took the camcorder out to snow play with our daughter, the quality of video & picture make all of us can't stop to talk bout how good the quality of camera. Only $129 on blackfriday but quality was so amazing HD.

sony cx 405 reiew
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.All good... this is easy enough for the not tech savvy to figure out. record and play is similar to models that have preceded up to 20 + years ago. have actually felt it out and watched file sizes.... reduce picture quality, or start making DVD's from downloaded files without changes That's all inside menu... all good.... I was told no better picture quality than other models.. all good here! This is cool for still photos also... Like real photos and not the the cheesy phone pictures you ever try to print! That ate skinny and useless. to reprint. for normal camcorder this is great! No over kills, works why waste hundreds more when items outdate so fast.
