    This is a fantastic camera for beginning vloggers. I usually have to take videos in low light, and this allowed me to make better quality videos than I would be able to make just using my phone!

    This camera is great but not for what I need it for. It will not last last 30 min of Continuous filming which is something I need. So I definitely recommend purchasing more batteries from Sony.

    This is a good camera. Easy to point and shoot. Sound quality is good as well. Auto focus is a bit slower than what was advertised but it's definitely better than the competitions version.
