I have after much hesitation ordered this part, because if you want to attach a video light and a micro, it's best for me to screw on the camcorder and connect the 3.5mm MicroIn camcorder micro with 2 adapters and attach the video light on a flash bracket with standard accessory shoe. There are also flash or C-rails where you can connect multiple devices, but were too bulky. So this adapter was needed. He is in my opinion extortionate even if it passes through the contact information on the Active Interface Shoe.
In practice, I found that but the best solution. I also have a video light with Active Interface Shoe. The fit now again. Why is developed at Sony a new shoe not clear to me. Probably more accessories to sell. The remote control with A / V R-port is no longer appropriate to the PJ650 VE. Here you need then a cable from "multi" (connection below the headphones) again goes to A / VR. This cable also costs about 30 Insert again and is not yet available at the time. Although the case has a PJ650 VE IR remote control, I do not but prefer to work with a wired remote control, because you can fix it on the tripod. The new connections only benefit people who want to stock up on the latest Sony accessories complete. And these are the least.
So somehow that's really outrageous, even if the PJ650VE is one awesome camera.
