Is that a € 1300 camera? Impudence.

With good contacts to Saturn staff, I was able to take this camera a closer look and to test extensively. I work professionally with many different cameras and had just got on this product, it's the successor to Sony PJ780 is very popular.

I had both versions there also the 4K version.

What immediately struck negatively, the fact that both the focus is super slow (ok, because you can not live with, unfortunately the manual zoom is just as slow with this camera) and one wonders is: Was it a problem for Sony incorporate faster motors or wanted to save money?
As nächtes is the focus: Much slower than the zoom, not even fast enough to keep a person in the focus slowly comes to the camera - it's even Sony? Is that a camera?

If you move the camera at an object, you wait like good and has set up the focus on the object laaaaaaaaaangsam 10 seconds - it if it makes since. Often the focus remains hanging in the background, even if the object fills 90% of the average image.

As nächtes quickly notice that the picture in actually well-lit room is very noisy and very colorless. Especially the new sensor you would have a great picture expected instead just washed colors.
Here me the 4K version has much better surprise, a clear picture with nice colors and good contrast.

I tried everything to find the focus to solve a problem, it is not. The motors are too slow, the software is not mature. Each camera has a 200 100 times better focus.

I'm really angry with Sony because I have long saved on this camera. The NightShot function, the ND filter and the new sensor, everything could have been so good.
But what brings me a camera without a functioning focus? The Canon 70D is even better and faster! Sadly, what Sony has touted here as a new Flakschiff.
