Description

The Sony FDR-AX43 is a compact camcorder that allows you to record professional videos. Thanks to its handy size, you can easily take it with you to record in different situations. On top of the camera, you can find a built-in microphone with 3 capsules that ensure clear audio. In addition, white noise is reduced so you get high-quality sound recordings with your videos.

Stable handheld recordings

You can easily record handheld thanks to the Balanced Optical SteadyShot. This means that the camera sort of hangs inside the casing, a bit like a gimbal. As a result, image stabilization is about 13 times more effective. Your recordings are stable even if you zoom in fully with the lens, which usually makes camera shake more noticeable.

High image quality

This camcorder records in 4K resolution. It has a 26.8mm wide-angle Zeiss lens, so you can capture vast landscapes and large subjects. Want to zoom in on your subject? Use the 20x optical zoom. The camcorder also has 250x digital zoom.

Expensive Setback

  • LCD screen is a mirror

Makes decent film recordings. As far as I'm concerned, not a nice, tight image, but acceptable.
Better, I dare say, than the Panasonics in this price range. But still, I expected much more.
4K recordings are disappointing. In my case, I regularly see white dots in the image while playing a 4k film. Like the old days when they scratched into celluloid (celluloid, who remembers that?). The difference in image quality between 4K recording and the highest adjustable HD is minimal.
The zoom function of this Sony is reasonable if you are not too critical. But when the zoom is almost fully zoomed in, it is impossible to get a still image, even with a tripod. It waves and vibrates in all directions.
Then the fold-out LCD screen! This works like a mirror outside. Moving objects outside, especially in the air such as birds and planes, cannot be found and followed on the screen. All you see is a reflection of yourself (in 3D!), which makes searching virtually impossible. An LCD hood does not solve the problem either. This is a big flaw in this camcorder for me. It needs a viewfinder which you can actually expect in this price range.

Bought because of the positive product information and reviews.
But I think it is a lot of money for a reasonable camcorder and therefore returned because I am dissatisfied.
