The camcorder from the Japanese company Sony is ready to compete with smartphones in video shooting. The quality of the videos obtained with its help is many times higher than the result that the cameras of most mobile gadgets are ready to offer.

Control

Only the essentials were included in the equipment of the model — it was even deprived of the possibility of touch input, which is why changing the video recording parameters is carried out using a 5-way joystick to the left of the display. You will have to get used to it well, but on a frosty winter day, this control method provides solid advantages compared to tapping on the screen.

Video recording

In good light, the camera delivers rich and colorful images, especially when shooting using the XAVC S codec, the consumer version of the professional XAVC video recording format. The maximum video resolution is limited to 1920x1080 pixels, the recording speed in it can reach 50 fps, and the bit rate is 50 Mbps(paired with high-speed SDXC Class 10 memory cards). With the deterioration of the quality of lighting, the detail of the video sequence drops significantly and the picture becomes very noisy.

Equipment

An optical image stabilizer is installed inside the camera, which helps to compensate for camera shake and make the picture in the frame smoother. The built-in microphone is responsible for sound recording, and there were no wireless data transmission modules familiar to the class of amateur video cameras on board the camcorder. Their absence had a positive effect on the overall weight of the model — in the equipped state, the camera barely outweighs the scale needle over the mark of 200 g.

Long battery life

A small protrusion protrudes from the body of the camcorder — this is how Japanese engineers implemented a built-in USB cable for connecting to a computer. In the stowed position, the tip of the "tail" is hidden in the sidewall of the handle. In addition to the pleasant impressions of the "baby", it is worth highlighting its long battery life — continuous video recording on a single battery charge in AVCHD format with a bit rate of 18 Mbps is carried out by the camera for 2 hours. This figure fully satisfies most needs in amateur shooting scenarios.
