This camera has a great design and is easy to use. Good picture quality and reasonable audio. So why do I pan it Poor quality. I owned mine for 2 1/2 years, treated it well, and a visual component is now making noise. The noise shows up in my videos and it's very annoying.

One correction should be noted. the sensor is 1/2.3", not 1", but that never mattered to me. I have had this for nearly 2 years and have taken it to reenactments, encampments, airshows and vacations where a lot of walking was required. Sony's BOSS stabilization is fantastic.

I purchased this for creating videos for my YouTube channel and, although I haven't used all of the camera features, it does a great job. The picture quality is excellent, sharp with good colour and the image stabiliser works wonderfully.

I bought this model because my earlier (non-Sony) camcorder lacked a separate microphone input, something I needed when shooting drama/comedy films at my local videomaking club, and missing on so many other non-professional cameras.

Bought this a few weeks ago and really glad i did. Great product easy to use with some excellent features e.g. slow motion. Once I got the correct memory card to record in 4k the picture quality is just unbelievable!! Would definitely recommend.

This camera has manual audio input levels... Perfect for recorded loud rock bands...

i brought originally the AXP33 liked it so much 12 months later i saw the AX33 was almost half price i had to get another one for my production team . you wont find a better camcorder at this price offering 4k that comes close to these specs trust me i do this for a living .the boss image stabilizer...

Great picture very easy to use wifi works great also would recommend

Great picture very easy to use no problems setting it up and using the wifi works great would recommend

None I can see

I own the Sony HDR-CX405, although this camera is a big step-up from the previous Sony Camera, I own. It has amazing picture quality, image stabilisation and a decent built in microphone. Also what's great about this camera is that it has external microphone input.

It is all that I was looking for and more. was very easy to read the manual. Got some good pictures and vidios
