Sony HDR-CX430 with Space Optical Image Stabilization

8.9-megapixel HD AVCHD Handycam

Around this time, "space optical image stabilization" began to be incorporated into some models.

When the video is tilted to the right, the lens moves to the left.
When the video is tilted to the left, the lens moves to the right.
It works the same way vertically.

The camera body works as if it's floating in space, moving the entire lens and sensor.
This model achieves powerful shake reduction even when zooming or walking while filming.

The biggest advantage is its outstanding effect on the telephoto side.
It captures distant subjects without blurring.
It was quite impressive.

Nowadays, you can easily take photos with your smartphone, but for events like entrance ceremonies, graduation ceremonies, or sports days, where there's a certain distance, I still think video cameras are more convenient.
You can zoom in and keep the subject in focus.
This is an important point.
There's a limit to how much you can enlarge photos on a smartphone later.

I also attached a filter after purchase, so it operates comfortably without any dust getting in.

A protective film is applied to the LCD monitor.
