Easy to use and full of functions
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Nice little camera. Videos are clear and quality is good enough for the price of the camera. My only concern is the plastic body and durability, and the limitation of only 32 GB sd card.

Easy to use
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This video camera was very basic and simple to use. Average person could take it out of the box & begin enjoying it. Only complaint was the box did not indicate type of memory card. I needed to exchange the SD card with the correct MicroSD card.

Beginner Camera

I'm not a beginer but wanted an inexpensive camera
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Still getting used to the video camera. The one feature that I do like is that you don't have to flip a switch to go from video to pictures, you just press a button. Haven't figured out how to view videos yet.

Great camera, easy to use.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this camera to take videos of family at Disneyland. Ease of use was excellent did not have to worry about any difficulty for others to use either. Had great time and enjoyed family without worrying about having to use a difficult camera.

Terrific Christmas present

excellent camcorder
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is used for at least one hour of recording time and i can say the battery does last without having to be plugged in. you will however need to buy a camera stand if needed since it doesn't fit most. However, good value buy

Great entry level camcorder
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Needed a basic camcorder to record in HD. Performs very well. Easy to use. Each format uploads easily with supplied USB cord. This is the second camcorder of this model I have owned. Other broke due to a fall while attached to a tripod.

Nice camera

Sony - Handycam CX405 Flash Memory Camcorder

Do yourself a favor and purchase a memory card to increase the amount of filming capacity.

Good entry level camcorder
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got this to record my sons sporting events. Needed something with a good optical zoom and at 30x this works. Can easily make it all the way across a youth soccer field. Picture quality appears to be good also when played back in 65” hdtv. While this is just an entry level camcorder it serves the purpose. I would have gotten something better by Sony but there just isn’t a lot out there right now between this and the $1k cameras that don’t offer the same zoom capabilities.

I love this camera
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I would had given this camera a 5. However, it has no remote control capability. I need it to do SELF videos to put online. However, the zoom is spectacular in fact I want to give it a 4.5 but don't know how .
