I found the camera quite easy to use. This is my first pro camera having used four handy cams all being Sony's.

The eye piece could extend a little more. I found it quite tight to get it into viewing sight of subject. Half an inch more would have helped me.

Very easy to set up and use. Quality is impeccable both of construction and video quality

Bit on the heavy side. A start button on the left hand side would also be an asset - I find that when using on a tripod I am fumbling either round the right side or the top handle for the button. If the shoulder pad was made as a snap on, this could be...

good picture for 1/4" sensor. Inteligent auto mode. Design like big, professional camcorder.

no xlr inputs, no good zoom posibillities.

Battery life and internal hard drive capacity excellent

No sound monitoring available. Too much noise from handling picked up by on board microphone Only one channel sound input.

If filming a performance, when the lights go down after a scene then come back up, the auto focus seems to get confused and will not focus on the newly lit scene for a few moments.

VERY COMFY TO USE AND WELL BALANCED CONVERSION TO CARD SUPERB, QUALITY PROFESSIONAL. A PLEASURE TO USE BUT I RECOMMEND A PRO TRIPOD. ITS A MUST

I HAVE NOT FOUND ANY YET

this is an excellent camera for those new to professional videography.

absolutely none.

Looks the part

Bad in any other mode but shoulder mount. Does not like tripods ( bad balance) Viewer far too small > I have to attach a monitor, Too heavy in comparison with whats on the market. Single mike input bad feature.

Sony Professional HD Camcorder representing great value for the price. HD picture quality is fantastic. AVCHD format works perfectly with Sony Vegas editing software. Shoulder mount camera is not too heavy and feels comfortable. Integral hard drive...

more connections for external sound.
