Pros + Best image quality is at the limit of FullHD
+ Many manual controls
+ very sharp under good lighting
Cons - fiddly operation
- too small wide-angle
- No Zebra
- Manual focus very poor
- lowlight
- no manual aperture control
Conclusion In this price class currently no rival offers better image quality and more controlsHowever, compromises must be made in terms of wide angle and in the handling, especially the focussing.Compared to the SR11 this cheaper modell has a smaller hard disk, no control ring, a less sharp display, no view-finder a a smaller image sensor resulting in worse lowlight pictures.Many users will prefer paying additional 300 EuroMovie makers will look for manual aperture-control - which is only to be found in competing models.Holiday videomakers who trust automatic controls and don´t want to shoot in the dark will be satistied with good image quality for a good price.
