Review: Sony HDR-CX700V

 

The HDR-CX700V is Sony's top-of-the-line consumer camcorder, and it's fair to say this sucker is loaded.

Also snaps 12-MP photos; 96GB of internal storage will let you record up to 40 hours of HD footage; advanced focus and exposure adjustments including zebra and peaking will make you feel like a pro; Touch tracking focus lets you lock in on your subject

The USB cord tucked into the hand grip looks and feels dorky; Night Shot mode lets you record in darkness but everything is G.I. Joe green; Sony’s video editing software is not Mac-compatible

Sony HDR-CX700V

 

New 60p and 24p shooting and a beefy 96GB drive on Sony's new flagship camcorder

60p and 24p record modes; 96 GB of internal memory

Disappointing low light performance; The custom control dial has issues

The Sony Handycam HDR-CX700V is close to being a fantastic camcorder, but its sub-par results in our low light test made it fall short. The camcorder has a wonderful set of features, including the new 24p and 60p record modes, as well as a good amount...

An excellent camcorder, good picture and sound quality.

Zooming and out could be smoother. Not so sure about the nightshot quality.

Compact Excellent HD picture quality

When it comes to deleting the pictures, there should be an option with one click to delete all rather than having to go through the entire file selecting all the images to be deleted

Inadequate battery supplied as standard. Why not the 100?

Sony Handycam HDR-CX700VEB

 

Compact in size for a product delivering such excellent image and sound quality. Also the eye viewer is a bonus in very bright conditions.

Nothing really serious as I have experienced movie filming from cine 8mm in the early 60`s and this is by far the best product yet. The zoom control is quick and sometimes difficult to operate smoothly when filming, also pressing the off button results...

Sony Handycam HDR-CX700VEB

 

Just replaced a big and heavy 1080i hdv camcorder with this fantastic small Sony HDR CX700 which is far lighter, superior in image quality for both video and photos. Excellent accessory range also. Very easy to use, superb internal memory size. The...

Battery power could be better hence because of the extra accessories used i.e. Sony external microphone with wind sock, hand trigger etc its best to buy larger batteries to match usage. Shame that optical zoom is not a little more in line with the...
