Jay thank you for the review since i realized i have the intro model camcorder.I still use this camcirder for practice use.I hardly had time using it since i have college classes.I know that some people don't like to be recorded so it is hard to record videos.
Namaste jay Rule. I am sridevi from India. My husband friend gifted this sony HDR CX240 handycam. I am searching for demo videos for this handycam. I found your video. I extremely happy for your detailed discription about this product. Thank you so much for detailed video💐Namaste🙏srideviramesh from Chennai India
I agree with you on the review.It's a good product.Not the greatest product since the audio playback seems cheap.The video quality is good.I've used some camcorders from 10 years .Camcorders 10 years ago were made wtih high quality audio and more better video playback.Not sure why the quality of products went down hill during the years.I noticed phones have better audio play back when recording videos.Some of these companies need to step up their game with more high quality intro model camcorders.
hey man, i actually legit just bought this camera today, my goal is to start uploading videos on to youtube and to start vlogging. anyways, i bought it at wal mart and they gave me the wrong type of memory card so i need to get a micro SD one.
You can use a HDMI cable www.walmart.com/ip/Sony-HDR-CX240-Camcorder-HDMI-Cable-5-Foot-High-Definition-Micro-HDMI-Type-D-To-HDMI-Type-A-Cable/772079160
Hey man, I just got a brand new Sony HandyCam HDR-CX405. I love my camcorder. How about this one, I mean the differences? If you replied, that will be much appreciated. Thanks.
Funny you mention background audio because now I'm starting to include that to make the video more enjoying. I usually lower the background audio to the lowest so it doesn't make it hard to hear what I'm talking about.
Can I ask you a few final questions. You now have the camcorder for a while. Are you still happy with it? Also I have seen a few videos of long range focusing, like focusing on the moon. There seems to be some break up in quality and grainy images. Have you used any movie making software like Paint Shop Pro movie maker? Thanks again for getting back.
I see a new Sony HDR-CX405 sells for $284 on Amazon. This review was about 10 years ago. You will have to weigh the positives and negatives as I can't decide for you. I personally prefer to just use my phone which is a Samsung S22 Ultra.
@@Jay_Rule I thought camcorders and especially professional TV cameras have better lenses than phones so that they are better than phones even if they have less pixels, and that they are especially better than phones when it comes to video quality when you zoom in, but that's not the case here?
I believe Mpeg4. BTW, I returned that unit shortly after I bought it because I felt it's better to just upgrade my phone to a iPhone 6 and not have to carry 2 devices everywhere I go.
I purchased one of these cameras a few days ago and ive been pretty happy with the picture quality. but somehow the audio doesn't sound great. im just listening to yours and the audio has a decent level of bass. but on my recordings the audio sounds very tinny, its all treble and no bass. am I missing something on the options or have they just put a shoddy microphone in my camera?
I was going by the demo you did outside. it sounds like a decent bass level when you speak. on my camera everything sounds fine until I start talking and then it sounds like all the bass has been sucked out of it. it's kind of a treble sound to it. maybe I don't have my settings right or maybe even need a better SD card or something. just wanted to ask you how you found the sound so far? and did you use any specific settings when you recorded?
Just wanted to say you can get videos from that camera to an iPhone using a lightning to an sd card reader, but for some reason the quality is horrifying
+Avenger Owen It should work for that but it's been a year now so there should be a newer model now. What kind of phone do you have? I just use my iPhone 6 for my RU-vid vids.
+Avenger Owen honestly and seriously this a camera to get if your on a budget while granted micro sd isn't the best in my opinion the camera performs exceptionally well and should do good for vlogs i used it to record my tv once upon time by setting it in front of the screen on a tripod and it looked like i was using a capture card. so yes good camera i would recommend
hey I got for $199 at bestbuy it is pretty good but I know their are better quality cameras i started using this cam for my youtube videos, I did enjoy this video, you were very detailed showing the featured i had this cam for over a year I am looking to get another cam maybe a canon thanks for this great review :-0)
