Customer Review

There's a lot to say on this camcorder. I try to mention the most important thing. A bit of self-discovery, I would also urge trigger the reader but, so I will not go into every mini detail.

What falls at this camcorder on first? In addition to manifests handy, lightweight camera, it is primarily the super simple, intuitive operation running. But before you get started, you need to perform the basics. Insert the small battery behind a (easily clicked together), plug the attached charging cable to the power so that the good piece gets juice (I have charged it overnight, but it takes no longer than 3 hours), then insert the Micro SD Card A (I use currently the SanDisk 32GB) and tada, the little mouse to .-)

What is striking again? Super simple overview. Fold on the camcorder and the menu is on. Nothing complicated, super easy. You see that is exactly 7 photos 7 and thus options on the small, folded monitor. These are:
1. Aufnahmemods (here they decide it tap if you want to take pictures or movies), then
2. Camera / microphone (here you put everything in terms of image exposure, sound, ect., More on that later), then comes
3. Picture Quality / Size (they rarely use them because they set a fundamental there as a high recording quality, file format, etc., as I said, to play once in it around and has it then behind him), then comes the point
4. "wireless" (here it is funny because you can connect the device to other devices such as a smartphone with this feature, in fact with all that has wifi function), then they have as
5. The re-transfer function. You guessed, noting it already, it's easy. This option gives you full access to the image and camera files and can view everything or drain.
6. The sixth point on the "desktop" is "Edit / Copy" and the
7. "Installation". (It's all about connections, HDMI settings etc.).

These are the 7 options, among which you can choose on the screen. How you use these options? Via touchscreen. Want to just tap on the screen to what you have, and try to adjust.

Once you have made your basic settings, you can start at last. Select the item "Camera", press the red button and off it goes. The picture quality is stunning and this is mainly due to the Balanced Optical SteadyShot. To put it to say in German: Here nothing wobbles. The images only slide along. In fact, especially by this feature a real sense of "professional camcorder" brought to the user. I hate nothing more than this miserable loose documentaries on Youtube that I have to finish a few minutes, because one of the camera work is bad. This happens to them hereby nothing. (Unless you disable this feature, which is also possible.)

The illumination of the camera I had set to automatic, like almost all the other properties also. The sound is great, the sound quality as well. They have among the settings to select among other things the possibility of whether the speaker should be heard behind the camera or not, whether wind noise to be reduced, etc. Here we are talking of a real high-quality camera with which they can turn serious films , Speaking of movies rotate: With the included battery you can film definitely more than 2h. I recommend the one for the quality of the records not only a min. 32 GB card, but also, if necessary, a replacement battery. The original from Sony is expected to cost around 70 euros. Can you make, but you do not. There are already replacement batteries (for the much filmmakers among us) that can be had for 24 euros. The Patona PREMIUM Battery NP-FV 70 is one. Only a small tip on the edge and is compatible with this camcorder.

What else is important? Total much, but I do not want to take the joy of discovering itself and details. There are, for example, the usual settings for the camera as Vintage, Black / White, Black and White with color in the details. Here's totally a lot of choices and you have real fun at finding and Rumfriemeln. What stands out here again and again, in my view, the ease of use, because now it comes: I have never in my life held a camcorder in hand, let alone uses, but this makes you feel good here and I find that he is absolutely awesome especially for technology-Frightened. But I do not get out of hand at this point ...

You can, while you shoot, make the way easy photos. For example, the small silver button is directly to the camera (Photo is plan '). I find awesome and I have already tried more than adequate. There are in the camera also the function that you take pictures automatically with smiling faces. You can even determine the degree of smiles (easy, normal, hard), or simply turn it off. Personally, I do not need, without exception smiley images. Is also funny when the camera when shooting still knippst between.

Did I mention the zoom? Ridiculous 60 x zoom are available. The service is also super for intuitive, because right there where the just described Photo button is, you have to control for the zooming in and out. That makes so feetz you believe anything. The camera zooms starkly intense, the resolution is also the absolute zoom very well. (There is also the way the network has abundant visual aids and also on the HP Sony You will be linked to Youtube on. Just daily who want visual imagery.)

This is all well and good, but ... nope, I'm not finished yet. The part can still much more and that brings me so a little pee in the eye. It can ... project images on the wall. Yes, yes, exactly. What a projector, makes this sweet little part anyway. Did I mention the ease of use? How do you do that? Easy. If the camera has been dropped open, then you will see on the right side a face with a man and speech bubble next to it Projector. There's a button and there you press on it and voila: Anything you see on the screen, you now have on the wall. The degree of sharpness can be easily moved by the slider on top of the small monitor. From 0.5 meters spacing them projected this little superpatches their photographs on the wall ... or wherever you put off it. The quality is really surprising. You see everything clearly and sharply.

Did I forget something? Yes. Before I get to the terminals, a word about the networks. You can namely, as already mentioned above, connect the camera via Wi-Fi with other devices. Search Please do not be dead, as I have done it. Please Just install the app on their device "PlayMemories" of Google. So you can then operate the camera for example via a smartphone. (You never know what it will be good times ...)

There are to my shame a single function, which I could not test, and I say this openly and honestly that. You can associate namely simultaneously with this device up to 5 items and about filming a position of a maximum of 5 different angles. (For example, with an Action Cam, which is for compatible.) Personally, I think this feature already for absolutely advanced, as well as for an absolute fun element. I have since but unfortunately the other cams missing. But there is worse.

To terminals. It is next to the charger cable when a HDMI cable. So that you can easily connect the camera to your PC, notebook or laptop and transfer the data.

They have, as usual in these cameras, below a device for screwing a tripod. You can also connect a microphone and / or a headset. On top of the camera there is a holder for an additional camera light. Sony recommends special lights. In this respect, maybe you should stick to it, because very few devices with those of Sony are harmonious, saying they can not simply connect each lamp, because not compatible.

Additional recommendations from Sony are these here:

Tripod: Sony VCTVPR1.CE7 tripod with camera control
Light: Sony LED Battery Video Light, HVLLEIR1
Microphone: Sony ECMGZ1M.SYH Gun Zoom Microphone with Multi Interface Accessories
Compact Case for Sony HDR-PJ410 and PJ620 Handycam HDR

Did I forget what now? Yes: Have fun with this camcorder. I no longer give him out of hand. No shaky images, ease of use, great quality. Those looking for his first camcorder or not very good is to cryptic technology and its use, here is more than rewarded. Just beautiful!
