I saved up and bought this very model. The results were crystal clear shots and impressed me. It is easy to use and if you like to experiment (as I do ) you will find it is a quality product with a fantastic lens. I will post a video as soon as the weather gets better, try all the functions out too. First impressions are great..

@WVMUSIC_NL6 жыл бұрын
Abhishek Jathar i have the hx60 and that is the smaller version of this camera and it has full manual mode which i always use. At 1:35 in this video you see the camera in topview and you see round button left, there is a M mode on that dial button. M is the full manual mode. Changing aperture and shutterspeed is very easy. In my camera i scroll the wheel on the back of my cam. I expect it to here quite similar, or maybe you have to press buttons, but menu is the same on both hx60 and this camera.

This camera is the best superzoom out there, if you want an all in one camera for a budget. This and the Panasonic FZ300, if you need more video capability than zoom reach for photography. Both have an outstanding ISO performance for such low budget cameras. The focus is simply crazy, this camera almost reads my mind.

Very nice video! I have a question though: Does this camera suffer from the rolling shutter effect when the light levels suddenly change while filming? (For example when recording lightning or close by fireworks). And if possible could you answer the same question for the HX90V? I have the HX20V and that one definitely shows the rolling shutter effect when playing back a recording of lightning or close by fireworks. Even on normal speed which is a slight bummer :\ I have read about manufacturers trying to address this problems with CMOS sensors so I'm curious if they managed to fix that.

I recently bought this for a travel camera, landscapes on the fly - literally, from the back of a motorcycle, as well as stills. Love the zoom, and I was looking for a good built in zoom and quality photo with 20 mp. I am very, very disappointed with the quality of photos from this camera in this type of use. Blurred, zoom blurred, not handling motion, not stabilizing - and tons of white-out photos that bleach out the background. I did a video riding down the Million Dollar Highway which I have done previously with great results from Olympus, or even my cell phone! With this camera, the whole darn video was bleached out an virtually useless, ruined! Can't be redone, either. These are in the moment shots while traveling. I bought this because Olympus is not currently making the built in zoom cameras they previously made, and I don't want to carry around a bunch of lenses. Or even one other lens. I want the built in zoom. I want lightweight. I want ease. It's on the go. But I am ready to return this to Best Buy with great disappointment. I came here to see if there were settings I was missing and need to adjust - no answers here. This guy just runs through the menu - this is NOT a tutorial by any means. I don't need a menu run-through. I need a tutorial that explains each menu setting and whether and how to get rid of bleached out photos and, well, what can you do about the VIDEO? It's crap! I can't zoom on the fly and get landscapes, which I could always do with Olympus. So I may have to return to Olympus, spend a lot more money, and have the extra zoom. Sony has failed to deliver. And they can't even manage a tutorial to help consumers. We don't all know the technical ins and outs, guys. By the way, it's not pricey. I thought it was cheap, and wondered what I was getting for so little. Now I know. Pricey is Olympus and other high end models of your competitors. Pricey is $1200 and up. This was less than $400 at Best Buy.

So much in doubt between this and the P900. This one is such an all around camera, but the P900 has that big lens. I wish you talked about the manual focus ring, that is such a big deal for many people, including me. Those zoom cameras can be very slow to focus and being able to give a helping hand can save more pictures than having more zoom many times.

Great review, quick questions. Do I need to transfer the files to my computer through Play memories? I've been just plugging the SDHC memory card and plugging it into my iMac, and I'm wondering if that causes downgraded image quality of any kind? Certain modes ex AVCHD 24p 24m(FX) says it can only record to blu ray. So if I record on that mode and run it through Final Cut Pro and export it, will I have any issues? Also can you mount ND filters on the lens as well? Thanks
