Camara

I would recommend this to a friend A Solid Choice For Casual Recording
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Sony HandyCam CX405 is a great budget option for capturing those priceless moments. It IS limited to 1080p recording, which, in this day and age, may be a bit low in terms of resolution for some, but most will get a lot of mileage out of this little guy!

Great small camcorder
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great small camcorder, light weight but powerful. Takes sharp videos, the zoom is awesome, easy to use. Long lasting battery. The charger usb is hide on the strap pocket. I have to look a video to find it out how to charge it. You can charge it directly on the usb socket or plug it with an extension female usb cord.

Good camcorder
