    We bought it for the holiday as our old sony miniDV camcorder is too old. It’s very slim, compact; indoor quality is good too. We all like it very much!!!

    I got Sony HDR-CX500v Camcorder from Amazon 4 days back. Last night I tried to use Remote Control/Commander supplied in the box but it didn’t work. I changed the battery but that didn’t work.

    I called Amazon customer support and she gave me 3 options-

    1. Return and get refund

    2. Return and get another one

    3. Take 15% discount on whole amount and buy a remote from local store

    I am confused what to do. How come new set will have dead RC or does it happen sometime?

    For now I have taken 15% discount and ordered for another remote on ebay. Will update once I get the new RC.

    But my doubt is in future will there be any issue in camcorder too if the whole unit was bad. As of now camcorder looks good.

    The camcorder overall is good and I can’t imagine a better than this at price I got it. But dead remote of a new camcorder stops me rating it 5/5.

    Update: I got a new remote last night and it worked perfectly. I am happy now. The camcorder is really amazing and deserves 5 out of 5. Since my remote was not working I had rated this 3/5 otherwise it’s 5/5.

    This camera has better low light performance compared to any of the Canon’s (HFS10 etc),

    and it has amazing image stabilization.

    We’ve used it for a month now, and are happy with it.

    Perfect choice for a family 1080P camcorder.

    I bought this few weeks ago and took it to Lake Tahoe, CA last week, The video and the picture taken were awesome

    and very clear even in low light snowing conditions. I have been waiting for this Camera/Camcoder combo that can

    take good quality pictures (12MP) as well. The smile detection is pretty cool, my wife loved it bcos she always

    complained that I never took such a natural smile of her :-) .

    The GPS location feature is a plus and the software that comes with this is pretty cool and fast in transferring

    and converting the videos. It worked on Win7 as well even though they didn’t mention it.

    The touch screen is nice but have some nail to tap it to be precise. The menu settings structure took a bit

    to understand and modify the defaults. I wish the red-eye setting is ON by default, but it forced me to learn

    their menu settings and turn it on.

    Overall its pretty good buy for those who dont want to carry camera and camcoder separately.
