The best price for such a product, I will buy more!

According to YouTube tests, the picture is brighter and richer than that of Panasonic 4K classmates. I recommend ating the firmware to 1.02 (on the Sony official website, it is ated in the camera in 20 minutes), so that stabilization on a tripod does not turn off. It was 1.01 and when installed on a tripod table, the green tripod icon lit up, now it doesn’t. Due to the new stabilizer, there was a greater stability of the picture. In the dark, it shoots no worse than the previous Sony 1080p. 

Pros

4K. Suspension of the lens lens on an active stabilizer (like DJI OSMO) inside the case, without a rigid mount. The lens now seems to be following (moving) the subject.

Cons

Sony changed the tripod cable connector for the third time. Unfortunately, the bundle: Sony vct-50av tripod - Sony FDR-AX53 4K camcorder did not work via the Sony A/V R VMC-AVM1 (JJC Cable-MULTI2AVR) cable adapter. Operates: Sony RM-VPR1 / Sony RM-S1AM type shutter remote control with tripod mount.
