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 this one on sale so it was an affordable purchase;however, did not meet my needs as it was a little to stripped down in features so took it back for something with a little more bells and whistles.

    I bought this to use as the primary camera for our church’s livestream and it works well enough. My only gripe is that the hdmi output is under the monitor door so that you have to unplug the cable before you can shut the camera off.

    This is a handiest little Camara I've seen yet. It's a little on the small side. No steady stream though. You can move around to much. Just have to so small things. It's a easy cam to work. Great for beginners such as myself.
