A very high-quality product, I take it not for the first time.

Today, the camera is obsolete, there are many other worthy cameras for this price tag with the presence of a log, I personally have it as a second and as a reportage, after BMPC I can’t take it to shoot some artistic and staged scenes, BUT! The camera can go to people who are fond of cinema, for shooting some short films or even a full meter, the picture is cinematic and with straight hands, you can pull out a good result.

Pros

- Best 5 axis stabilizer - Compactness - Swivel screen - Good 4k - Build quality - Convenient menu - Built-in time lapse, stop motion, HDR - Shooting in 1080p 50 fps - The battery, many people write that the batteries do not last long, which I disagree with, one battery holds two hours of continuous shooting in 4k with the stub turned on and this is a huge plus - Ergonomics! Very comfortable to hold in hand, unlike the Sonek 6000 series

Cons

- A very noisy matrix, even at the lowest values there is noise, the maximum working ISO is 800, I would attribute this to the features of the camera if there were no artifacts in dark areas. - Very poor autofocus, it’s definitely not suitable for those who like to focus on the machine, it searches for an object for a very long time and constantly smears, focus only with handles! - Cannot be set below 200 iso - The whale lens is just like a plug, in daylight on the street you can use it as a reportage, indoors in artificial light or in the dark on the street the picture is terrible, worse than on the phone . - There is no way to connect regular headphones for sound monitoring, although this model is positioned primarily as a video camera
