Having seen a test by Chello regarding the Zoom QH video recorder, saying essentially the sound quality was not up to scratch.
So i looked at similar products that are essentially a point and shoot system capturing good quality video and Sound.
Initially the reviews were mixed because Sony had not incorporated a swivel picture viewer and the screen was not touch sensitive.
Fortunately there were better reviews which captured the Sony`s real intentions
Looking at a demonstration, i noticed it was being used at a gig and they were raising it above their head to record.
Now i understand why they didn`t have a swivel screen as it would become intrusive, also why they didn`t make screen touch sensitive
as it could alter settings whilst recording
The Sony is small, fits into your hand and has good battery life also comes with a hardcase
The video quality is good, but the sound quality exceeded my expectations
Overall a very good quality sound and vision recorder for £200
