    • So Far So Good (updated)
Just a few notes on: As a refurbished, came in a sony box with little padding, but with all accessories They stated warranty for 90 days Everything looks new A separate cable purchase is needed to use video out through minijack to Rca There is an hdmi short cable to connect to hdtv While in 4k the camera stops displaying through hdmi on an hdtv when it records but it does so in standby Has WiFi to transfer photos and mp4 videos to enabled phone , works with galaxy s3 so far and play memories app also works as remote on phone Recorded nonstop about 2 hours in 4k in a 53 gigs file on sony sdxc card purchased separately, watch for card speed for 4k as it needs 60megs per second or better write speeds The wide angle feels plenty enough (28mm equivalent on 35mm scale?) but that's the only time it gives f 2.8, as zooming in it changes automatically up to a minimum f4 and beyond depending on settings Was able to set manually and separately (separate buttons on the camera and not covered by the lcd) exposure, shutter speed, gain (in db rather than an iso numbering) audio levels for 2 channels - it has meters for 5 but didn't try that mode yet (the meters can show on screen but tiny) Installed play memories software on pc, only works with vista or newer, not working with xp and older, xp would not recognize camera or sdxc card, not even with proper usb2 card reader that otherwise works fine with windows 8.1 - (the footage can also be accesed without play memories installed but not in xp) The software once camera is connected through usb launches and finds camera and new photos, videos, and can either import them automatically or manually BUT BE CAREFUL AS I THOUGHT I DID IMPORT AND REFORMATTED THE CARD ONLY TO DISCOVER THE VIDEOS WERE MISSING FROM THE DRIVE SO CHECK AND BACKUP! The touch screen sometimes needs more than one tap to execute With all functions displayed it's somewhat hard to see what's being recorded but a push (or two) of a button makes all but the video frame being recorded go hide. HOWEVER THE BLACK BUTTON IS ALMOST IDENTICAL AND VERY CLOSE TO THE BLACK POWER BUTTON AND SUCH YOU MAY FIND YOURSELF SHUTTING THE CAMERA OFF The camera turns on automatically when the flip out LCD screen is opened or when the viewfinder is pulled out. The power button is covered by the lcd when closed and so is the card compartment THERE IS NO WAY TO PULL THE CARD OUT WITHOUT TURNING ON THE CAMERA (Opening the lcd) UNLESS YOU REMOVE THE BATTERY There is also a license for Sony Vegas Platinum 13 included in the box and the program can be downloaded and installed and activated (on windows 8 32bit or better, check for system requirements on line) in order to edit videos shot with the camera. I was able to shoot in low light using just a 60 watts regular bulb in a room with little gain added The DOF is all right but not as spectacular as on my Canon T2i with the nifty fifty 50mm lens at f1.8 There are zebras for overexposure and they can be setup manually in 5 step increments such as 70, 75, 80, 85, 90, 95, 100 The manual ND filters are great when trying to shoot at a set f stop or when there is way to much light There is a button to switch between manual and auto focus, black and flat, so while the lcd is open it takes a bit to find it as the lcd blocks it from view THE FLAT BLACK ROUND BUTTONS ON THE BLACK BODY LOOK COOL BUT THEY SHOULD REALLY BE BUBBLY AND OF DIFFERENT COLORS AS TO STAND OUT EITHER VISUALLY OR BY TOUCH AND BE EASIER TO FIND AND ACCESS. The zoom 2 button toggle on the body has a fixed and rather fast speed so smooth and slow zooms have to be dialed manually by turning the ring around the lens, ring that can be assigned either to zooming or to focusing manually. The lens feels parfocal, an expensive and rare feature in dslr lenses, as it seems to keep the subject in focus through the zooming in and out even with manual focus on - the way to test is by zooming all the way in than focusing, then locking focus, then zooming out... the subject should remain in focus - however, f4 or more should be chosen otherwise if lower it will change with the zooming in For those with pro audio demands: my Sennheiser 416 combined with the good ol' Beachtech XLR to stereo minijack adapter and with camera audio on manual gain provided clean and loud enough levels in my tests The multipurpose shoe mount on top of the camera has a lid that feels weak when open and it needs an adapter (under 10 bucks on ebay) to give the user the good ol' shoe mount folks have been used to for years and years on still and video cameras, yes the one that all accessories used to be made for... The viewfinder has adjustment for diopters and also can swing up on an angle, once open, for proper viewing - great when there's to much light to watch the lcd or if the shooter doesn't want to disturb people around HOWEVER IN ORDER TO TOGGLE THE CAMERA FUNCTIONS DISPLAYS ON AND OFF THE SCREEN THE LCD NEEDS TO BE OPEN AS THE BUTTON FOR THAT IS COVERED BY THE LCD DOOR. It may be a way around as there is an assignable button available but that is yet to be explored.(checked but only exposure or white balance features can be assigned) So far so good... ... show more

    • Commercial 4K quality for a fraction of the cost of REDs
This is one of the best video products that Sony has come out with. I strongly believe that Sony could have charged double, but brought this camera to market for the purpose of putting more 4K content within the reach of consumers, with the ultimate goal of selling an even greater amount of 4K LED televisions. Because of this, the video quality is excellent. This Sony camera far outperforms the Panasonic AG-HMC150 3CCD that I had been using. The larger pickup in the Sony makes for great low-light performance. While I have been shooting in 4K, for fast motion scenes I use the 1080P (50mb/s) setting of the camera, because the 4K frame rate is too low for action. To help insure the highest resolution and video quality, you MUST use a high-quality CLEAR lens protector (not a UV filter), such as the "HOYA PRO1 Digital 62mm MC PROTECTOR." Hoya 62mm DMC PRO1 Glass Protector. I can trick this camera into using the cheaper HD cards by simply reformatting them as HDXC cards in my Windows 7 MSI laptop workstation. PowerDirector 12 video editing software handles the 4K format with ease and downconverts the final output into many different formats, including burning DVD and BD. I've found that I can get BluRay quality on DVD by using the AVCHD format, which many disc players can handle. The Wasabi Power Battery (2-Pack) and Charger for Sony NP-FV100 cost me about $35, and includes 2 batteries and a charger for the extended-life batteries. The charger is important since no external battery charger is included with the camera. If you buy a spare battery by itself, you must charge it in the camera.Wasabi Power Battery (2-Pack) and Charger for Sony NP-FV100 and Sony DCR-SR15, SR21, SR68, SR88, SX15, SX21, SX44, SX45, SX63, SX65, SX83, SX85, FDR-AX100, HDR-CX105, CX110, CX115, CX130, CX150, CX155, CX160, CX190, CX200, CX210, CX220, CX230, CX260V, C... I would strongly recommend the Sony ECM-XYST1M Stereo Microphone (fits in built-in shoe) for outboard audio for higher quality audio. The price was $129 in April 2014, but is now $99 in July:Sony ECM-XYST1M Stereo Microphone (Black) In summation, this camera appears to outperform virtually all 1080P cameras, and does a better job (in my humble opinion) than most BlackMagic devices, and gives RED production cameras a run for their money. This is a perfect camera capturing more video detail than you could ever imagine, and dollar for dollar, puts everything else to shame. ... show more
