Video reviews

In the arsenal of the Sony HDR-CX625 camcorder, the only thing missing is support for recording video in ultra-high resolution UltraHD. It is unlikely that significant claims can be made against the remaining parameters of the model.

hot shoe

The ergonomic shape of the camera fits comfortably in your hand. The only part of the case that can theoretically be covered by the palm of your hand during video shooting is the hot shoe. But the very fact of its presence already refers to the pluses of the model — through this interface, you can connect an additional light source or an external microphone. Audio is also recorded using the built-in stereo microphone or through a special port for connecting a third-party audio recording device.

Features

Videos in FullHD format are written by the camera in excellent quality both in daylight and at night. Shooting using the semi-professional XAVC S codec will help to pull out more details from the video sequence, which opens up wide features in post-processing of footage. In parallel, the camera records video in MP4 format, which is more familiar to a simple layman.

Stabilization

The 5-axis stabilization system, which has found application in the design of the video camera, ensures maximum smoothness of the video sequence. Of course, with active running, the stub will not be able to fully compensate for camera fluctuations, but when slowly descending the stairs, it fulfills its duties at a very high level — obvious jerks of the image are cleaned up.

Functionality

A high video recording bitrate (about 50 Mbps) sets certain requirements for the speed characteristics of a memory card that is suitable for installation in a camcorder. It is advisable to get a flash drive not lower than the 10th speed class. In addition to the main function — video recording — the camcorder can make time-lapses. In addition, the functions of the camera can be controlled remotely (from a smartphone or tablet). As a result, the Sony HDR-CX625 will serve as an advanced amateur solution with a little potential for moving to a higher semi-professional level of video shooting.

Reference. A time-lapse is a video created from a series of photographs taken with a stationary or smoothly moving camera over a long period of time.

Additional features camcorder Sony HDR-CX625:
  • Parallel video recording in two formats — XAVC S or AVCHD and for better quality in MP4
