Benefits: 

  • With balanced optical SteadyShot to rival gimbal systems, high-resolution 4 K film recording, and high-quality sound with a particular mic, this Handycam brings professional production and easy movie sharing within everyone’s reach.
  • Stable while walking-The unique, balanced optical SteadyShot stabiliser, with an internal gimbal mechanism, is around 13 times more potent than any other optical device that allows for shake-free shooting while walking.
  • Stable even while moving- Balanced optical SteadyShot’s internal gimbal system and image processing algorithm delivers such regular shooting that you can even shoot steady movies while moving.
  • A standard at full zoom- The stability of the Gimbal and the balanced optical SteadyShot algorithm helps you to film endless movies even at full zoom, where the camera shake is most noticeable.
  • A state-of-the-art lens and image sensor improves the spectacular 4 K resolution information with improved sensitivity for capturing high-quality low-light movies. High-bitrate recording in XAVC S format clearly captures even fast-moving, complex scenes.

Downsides: 

  • Limited physical controls
  • Disappointing battery life

Verdict: 

The AF algorithm optimises contact between the lens and the image processor for extra-fast AF. At the same time, the state-of-the-art AF range prediction technology helps ensure that even moving objects remain sharply centred. Excellent sound, a lot less noise. Three microphone capsules capture clear sound and minimise noise, allowing high-quality sound recording with clear stereo separation. Shoot the selfies, high and low-position at will. Build the ideal setup for vlogging with an optional grip or a microphone. The tilting LCD and grip make selfies, high and low-position shots simple.
