    Reviewer: Amy Mattson,
    I love this camera. I do a lot of videography for local bands, so I'm in low light conditions most of the time and the color picks up very well. The other thing that impressed me so much was that the on-camera mic is even better than a (inexpensive) boom mic I bought. I continued to use the camera's mic because of the stereo quality when a line-in isn't available. Totally recommend for anyone starting out in film/video.

    100% reliable, great quality

    My wedding cinematography studio purchased this camera just about a year ago. We love it! The quality is outstanding - the 16:9 is so beautiful.
    Easy to learn. Good weight and feel. The LCD is HUGH!!!! We are planning to purchase two more early next year!
    Superb!!

    Sony HDR-FX1 3-CCD HDV High Definition Camcorder w/12x Optical Zoom

    Just one word of warning, the camera can get heavy, especially if you use the standard battery it makes the camera very front heavy, but oh well.

    This camera is totally customizable in which it is either all auto, manual or some of both. It has 5 presets that are customizable. The cool features about these presets are that you can get a 24p, 30p (cineframe and cinetone), and 60i modes. The 24p and 30p refers to the "film" setting. You can record in true 16:9 widescreen or standard 4:3 letterbox. The high def mode will only do 16:9. I wouldn't listen to anyone who says the widescreen is a stretched 4:3, because its not. You can also hook in headphones, and an XLR adapter. This comes with a 2-hr battery. There are just 3 things I have beef with about this camera. One is the fact that it doesn't have XLR inputs - you'd think that after spending 3K on a camera you'd get some. 2nd: It records in 1080i. Not exactly terrible. 1080i is not true HD, but nor is 720p. True HD is 1920x1080p. But, recording at this high of resolution means spending more money. 3rd: This thing can't record in 24p.

    I'm a video production major and I love this camera. It not really just a consumer camera, but a professional consumer camera. I highly recommend it, its well worth your money. Yeah it has come cons, but I think every camera will. This is by far one of the best on the market.
