Not having a large budget I compare and I fall on this camcorder midrange that seemed okay overlooked features that it offered me.
- An optical zoom with a magnification of 30 times (it's huge and really great)
- A wide angle lens (something very rare at this price)
- A battery provides which allows me to shoot more than 2:50 without interruption
- An ability to shoot my films simultaneously in MP4 and AVCHD full HD 1080i which allows me to directly to my surroundings on a copy after filming mp4 on USB key or laptop hard drive for example.
- It can also shoot a movie in super high resolution is 1080p
- Best of all, it has a small projector with high contrast that makes it a mobile cinema or I can project the movie I've just about any flat surface. (Including with sound thanks to its built-in speaker)
What to say about its use globally?
This is a very intuitive camcorder! After the 5 minutes you will have no problem in hand!
The video rendering is to go in any mode of shooting! (1920 x 1080 / 50p (PS 28 Mbit / s), 1920 x 1080 / 50i (FX 24 Mbit / s, FH 17 Mbit / s) HD Video: 1440 x 1080 / 50i (HQ 9 Mbit / s, 1440 x 1080 / 50i LP 5 Mbit / s) SD Video: 720 x 576 / 50i (9 Mbit / s); 1280 x 720 25p MP4 (6 Mbit / s)
The optical zoom is great I get to see more than 400 meters of the details that I could not see with the naked eye
Moreover thanks to the steadyshoot function (stabilization by Sony against tremors) you can zoom to the maximum without risking the shakes. (It works great)
What I did not like in this camcorder:
- The photo taken.
You can with the camcorder to take pictures, I invite you to forget this option! the quality is really disappointing, I do not understand how Sony could make a camcorder that movie as well as an option with disappointing picture worthy of a webcam.
My Bad:
- Wifi for part I do not really see what it was going to serve me when I see the weight transfer of the videos, he preferred to use the cable provides this will go faster when wifi.
- The digital zoom is what it is I wonder given the super optical zoom The camcorder has!
I advice you to buy:
The cover that goes well with the LCS-U11:; redirect = true & ref_ = oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00
Map microSDXC 64 G0 let you shoot 7:20 (1080i) or 5:20 (1080p) with uninterrupted:
