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.

The vast majority of our reviews come from verified purchases. Reviews from customers may include My Best Buy members, employees, and Tech Insider Network members (as tagged).

    There’s no power button, it doesn’t tell you what time video was obtained, it takes a micro SD card which means you’ll have to buy an adapter unless you already use a camera that requires an adapter then you won’t have to worry about it. It doesn’t show time stamps for your video. If you’re a PI, this is not for you. It does take nice video though! It’s extremely lightweight. I REALLY want to return for another Canon, but it’s open box & I don’t think you can return or exchange open box. Oh well, my loss.

    Sony Camcorder review

    So far it is a good little camcorder. It is replacing a 10 year old Cannon I had. I wish the shutter was automatic instead of having to manually open and close it. I have yet to burn a dvd, but I hope it will be easy to use and user friendly. over all a pretty good product, but I'm not sure if it will last 10 years like my old Cannon did.
