Customer Review

Beau camcorder that yours well in hand, in a black / gray mat nice. It is easy to use, no trouble finding the button 'Photo' or zoom quickly with the right hand, the touchscreen responds rather well and the menu is easy to understand without having to peruse the instruction manual.
I bought 2 years ago camcorder Canon Legria HF M306 Full HD Camcorder Memory Card 15x Optical Zoom 3.3 Mpix was slower to react and had especially a battery that was running very fast!

What is very painful, and this applies to all brands is that manufacturers now provide CD-ROM or software to install to be able to transfer photos to computer and do editing; in the case of this camcorder which requires installing the software 'Play Memories Home' need to upload to the site [...]. And this is where it gets less funny: it's Windows format, and I work on a Mac! And how can I do now? This was also the case with my previous camera, yet a Canon, the brand that is supposed to be Mac-friendly ... No response in the record, no customer service website ... The manual refers to a Japanese site! When I put my SD card in my Mac, I can get photos without a problem, but the videos do not appear ...

The GPS function is more a gadget, and only works in open spaces (not inside). Personally, it does not interest me too much. I would have preferred that the brand provides a bag to carry the camcorder.

Consider buying an SD card with at least 16 GB quickly or at the same time as it is not supplied with the camcorder! I advise this one, that works perfectly: Lexar - LSD16GCTBEU400 - Memory Card - SDHC - 16GB - Speed ​​400X
