This product boasts an Optical Stabiliser, which it hasn't got. It has electronic stabilisation, which crops the picture, Optical Stabilisation is 15x more effective and the lens is mounted on a gimbal. It has a fixed frame rate of 50 fps in this country, yet it boasts much lower shutter speeds. The ideal shutter speed is always half the frame rate, so what happens? Does it maintain 50 fps and expose two frame per shutter movement, if set to 1/25th sec? I've always like shoulder mount cameras for their steady pictures in trying conditions, crowds etc. This camera has been on the market since 2013, yet little has changed since those days where AVCHD is concerned. The picture is as good you'll get with 2K and the macro shots are breathtaking. I like it for its simplicity, but the downside is, you won't see the screen in bright sunlight and if you need to access the menu, it's a bit difficult. The way out of this is to provide a joystick, thumb operated and view the menu via the viewfinder. Many have done this.Read full review
