I have years "photographically" care my family and DSLR and HD camcorders dragged their accessories. This was so annoying that I have not taken many days the equipment. I've often
regrets, because then I just could not picture taken great events.
With the DSC HX9V, this issue no longer presents. They did it and it escapes a nothing.
I would like to highlight:
1. Setting "superior automatic" (golden camera icon): The recordings are mostly great, barely Committee.
2. Sweep Panorama: simply awesome, especially even if there are people on courses: These are displayed even if they move sharply.
3. Many programs for special situations, if that is desired, otherwise governs the superior automatic.
4. The HD video recording: Simply brilliant. Video in high resolution via HDMI on plasma: perfect. In particular, the tracking focus. Before recording, you can mark a person / object is then asked constantly keen on movies on the. Even when shooting, the optical Image Stabilizer makes very positive impact. However, there is a limit of continuous recording time to 29 minutes (but who needs in everyday life for so long takes with no break).
6. The zoom 24 mm to 380 mm (small format equivalent) with optical Image Stabilizer: Perfectly
7. GPS function with localization of the shooting location and the direction in which you have photographed.
My conclusion: This camera is the ideal companion for all situations where you want to take pictures or movies. It represents the ideal compromise of compactness and quality and saves an additional purchase of a camcorder.
To the criticism of image quality in some tests and user reviews:
The quality of this camera is very good for the compact class! Of course, the image quality can not keep up with a camera that has a significantly larger sensor (bridge, system camera or DSLR). But these cameras lack the compactness of the HX9V. The recordings of the HX9V see on a 24 "monitor from super, as well on a 43" Pioneer Plasma HD via HDMI cable. If I choose the 100% view on the PC monitor, then aberrations significantly. One then sees only a fraction of the whole picture, for me so completely irrelevant. However, if "pixels Viewfinder" or for any other reason requires 100% Crops or constantly want herausvergrößern from recordings small sections, should look at the camera before buying one exactly. Surely he is (and sensor) better off with a larger camera. But he has to haul, to take photos. For everyone else, involving dartum capture beautiful moments easily the HX9V is photographically and movies Risch thoroughly recommended.
