3 Months of casual Use -ìt's Fantastic!
This Sony was recommended to me by a professional Wedding Photographer. She said it tracks faces and focuses quickly so it is ready to point and shoot the image stabilization is better than a go pro because Go Pros actually crop the frame to achieve their stunning stabilization. So, you are losing about a third of the actual frame size. This camera gives you the nearly the full chip capacity and uses a built in Gambrel to help keep the image upright. It takes great still shots at the touch of the button and it's easier to transfer images, especially Videos, than from my Canon M-50. The M-50 stops recording video after about 30 minutes. That sucked on My Sons 2nd Christmas with set it and forget it I lost it! I have more money invested in the M-50 with extra lenses etc than this cost. Thinking about long term additional costs vs the slightly greater up front cost for the "Platform." The only thing I wish were better was the low light capabilities but I don't often have that problem just know the 4th of July party comming up is going to be limited to pre-fireworks time.

Reliable and high quality
I do storm videography and photography for a living. This is a great camera for me. The built in stabilization, autofocus, video quality are all great. And compared to the other cameras I have this one does the best in low light. Though audio quality is not great. You can easily attach a microphone to it. Over great camera for high quality footage.

Not worth the money
we have a 5 year old C@non camcorder. It's overall service is better. This one does give a better picture when you are in still shots. However while panning with the speed of a race car it is sub par video quality and goes out of focus.

Pros: #1 easy to use #2 can last for more than 1 hour Cons: #1the material with lots of plastic #2 no internal memory #3 the recording in 4k format needs to be compatible with your video editor
