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).

    Great camcorder, record's well while on the move. Needs a micro SD card instead of those Sony cards so that's a plus.

    My delivery was stolen from my apartment building and so I never got to try the camera, but I'm sure its fantastic. Great for people who don't want extra tech like Wi-Fi.
