Article sold by amazon, received the next day, perfect as always with amazon. not tested, charging battery (140min). One detail that is important: this camcorder takes the MICRO cards (SD, SDHC or Memory Stick). compatibility not verified by Sony for more than 32G (sdxc). After a doubt I called Sony France who assured me that the camcorder accepted non micro cards (ambiguous on their website), which is FALSE unfortunately I just got in aprecevoir, so pay attention to the choice of memory card MICRO MANDATORY.
