Great beginner camcorder
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A bit cheaply built and not too heavy but the recording quality is definitely great. When the settings are maxed out and when you learn about the way formats work it definitely turns out to be a great camcorder. Great for YouTube.

Good quality movie
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It takes the best picture for going on vacations. The only problem I have with it is that it is bulky to be carrying around. My phone takea good-enoigh pictures, but not as good. For everything, there are strong and weak points. That's how I aaw it after owning one.

Shoots great video but mediocre pics
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I loved the zoom and stability of the camera. I tried other models in store and found that in full zoom, the Sony had the best stability even when I shook my hand a bit.

Great Prodcut for home videos
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was a great camcorder for us. We are starting a family soon and wanted to make home videos instead of always taking videos on our phones and never having all the videos in the same place and easy to play back on a tv in the future. Would recommend!

Very User Friendly
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We got this for our 11 year old daughter for Christmas. She opened the box, inserted the memory card and got it up and running right away. No problems whatsoever - and she has never had or operated a camcorder before. She loves it - makes all kinds of videos with it. And the price was right!
