Playing around with this particular camera has got only better my view of Sony's handycams. The video and elements are brilliant and the aesthetics of the camera are first rate. However enjoy Sony cameras I picked up over 4 years prior to this one's release it is likely to give the condensation oversight (which for those who look online you will see hundreds of posts about that but very little permanent steps) as well as broken bend cables. So this reveals Sony can be too busy releasing cameras to fix well know issues that are re-occurring. With all that aside, if you get this sweet baby in a bargain price range it might be hard to pass by but may well seem it's less expensive to just go along with something else if you aren't willing to face the Sony challenges.
