Review on Sony HX400V Compact Digital Camera: Capturing Brilliance with 50x Optical Zoom in Black by Agung Rusindarto ᠌

The camera is very comfortable, pleasant to use, has a wide range of settings. Lots of scenes and artistic filters. Intuitive menu, hint system, built-in help - ideal for beginners. The form factor is close to a DSLR, but the weight is much lighter, you can carry it on your shoulder all day, it doesn’t interfere. The grip is comfortable, the handle is rubberized, does not slip. The zoom is quite decent, coupled with digital zoom gives simply amazing results. For me, the camera would be ideal in all respects, if not for one "but" that crosses out all the pluses - very "soapy" shots at any settings. On the small screen of the camera, the pictures look perfect, but once you start to enlarge them, and when transferred to a large monitor, “watercolor” and a complete lack of detail immediately pop up. The size of the matrix is ​​to blame for everything, and even the Carl Zeiss lens with enlightenment does not save the situation. For filming in the country, at a party and outdoors on everyday topics, it is quite suitable.
