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.

This summary was generated by AI based on customer reviews.

    I originally got one that was "out of box". That camera did not focus good. I went back and got a new camera, and I am very satisfied with this one. It has great focus and good quality pictures.

    I bought this recorder because my right arm and hand don't work. I am able t o use it as long as I don't need to point it above my head. The kitten is now to fast for me but I can still take stills even if they are only 9mega pixels. That is fine for me. I am very happy with the camera except that it is always in the wrong room when I want to take a picture that isn't the cameras fault. I am able to hold it much better than my other camera.
