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.

    Got a new puppy so I wanted to document all his special moments, this is a decent camcorder that can take still photos. It went on sale a little over two weeks after I paid full price with full geek squad and all the bells warranty for 3-4 years, fell my anxiety got the better of me and I over spent on this item (my fault not best buys)

    The cons: It does a basic job of recording. The picture is not the greatest. The zoom in and out button is very sensitive. The pros: it’s size is convenient to hold and carry around. It does a basic job.
