Not a GoPro - Dont Buy

 

Bought this camera as a cheaper replacement for a go pro hero 3 that was stolen. To be fair, I must disclose I'm a videographer with over 25 years of experience. This camera was not able to reproduce the color and clarity of the go pro's showing a lot...

HD video is superb, and still photo is amazing

Best Purchase in the year

Alost Happy

 

I was thrilled until the 2nd time I used it. On my third time, the red record button got stuck and when I called Sony I found out that although the camera is still under warranty I can not have it replaced as the warranty only covers repair. I was...
