Just super, the product is made wonderfully, very satisfied.

The Sony W350 served me for two years, but then the child took it and dropped it from a height of about 40 centimeters - that's all. Repair is worth as she herself. I bought an anti-shock-water-dust-protected one, I hope it will last longer - all the same, the strongest according to Europe 2022. (I won’t write about the alarm clock, voice recorder, clock, flashlight)

Pros

It seems to be well made and brutal. Before it was the Sony w350 - the quality of the pictures is not much worse (mostly worse in dark frames, well, in Sonya and the optics are brighter), but the automation (oddly enough) in metering and focusing works much better and faster. For the first time I see a convenient auto ISO lock function (such as only 125, 125-200, 125-400, etc.) The video shoots up to 1920 * 1080 * 30, and in 1280 * 720 * 60 - the colors are juicier and the pixels are smaller, although the size of the matrix seems to be the same)), but there is a minus - WHEN VIDEO SHOOTING AT THE MOMENT OF APPROXIMATION OF A FAR OBJECT, FOCUS ON IT DOES NOT WORK (IT IS BLURRED), although you can stop recording, focus on it and continue recording. There are interval and accelerated photo-video shooting. Accepts HDXC 64 Gb format cards.

Cons

No autofocus when shooting a movie on a subject farther than the subject of the movie. You need to stop recording, focus on a distant object and continue recording.

I bought it for my child, but sometimes I use it myself. I took it with me to the sea. It is surprising that at such a price, the video is of high quality, which of course pleased. Interesting design, there are many small and useful features.
