The lens cover has to be opened manually. An SD card (microSD) to be loaded, no problem. Here it: According engraving can be inserted the card with contacts facing up or down, but neither one nor the other does, a pathetic squeaking sounds and the firmware trying to tell a mistake I can not read because within the window tenths up and snaps shut.

With LED - illumination grumbled the device first "little light", then made even videos (depending on the illumination of the respective object and zoom level) and was quickly irritated by rapid change and less contrasted motifs. Significant Zoom noises on the film.
That's enough for me already to exchange: 10 years ago there were already consumer devices that would not assimilate Zoom noises - the movie sounded like a scratch orgy on a school blackboard. The rest of the "performance" I do not want to see.
How Sony can offer the package for 350EUR seriously is beyond me. Cheap, old-fashioned and inefficient - since even good for the surprisingly good Beamer (2nd star) nothing. For 150 euros more you get an Xperia Z3 from the same manufacturer - great materials, sophisticated software, similar performance values and calls also goes (/ irony). Incredibly, both of Sony comes.
