I opted for this camcorder, although to purchase any reviews templates, but mostly I then find my way. I have so far tested the camera in any lighting condition and am thrilled. Even with weak interior lighting the images are still acceptable. With my previous camera (Grundig) the shooting in low light were unusable. The quickness of the focus adjustment when zooming in or out is also acceptable. So far, I can not assess negatively to the camcorder. A downside was that no description an indication was to be found on the memory card, so hat verifiable initially ordered an SD memory card, but then had to switch to a micro-SD card. The return of the card to Amazon as always without any problems. Positive also the HDMI cable that is included as an accessory and the optimum cooperation of the camera with a Sony Bravia TV. Conclusion: I would buy the camera again.
