Sony PXW-X70 Professional XDCAM Compact Camcorder (PAL)

Used to live stream church service
This camera was purchased because we needed a great picture and 3G-SDI output. We have only used the camera a few times, but so far, we are very happy. The picture is everything we expected and the output is fantastic even over a 75 ft cable.

do not buy this
You can find a similar explanation at @ under reviews for this same camcorder. I have tried eight different video processing programs including the newest sony vegas 13 (keeping in mind this IS a sony camcorder) and none of them can read or capture the XAVC HD video. This includes taking shots with adobe premiere elements, vegas, powerdirector, corel pro x7, windows movie maker, and two software programs that are supposed to capture XAVC: Aiseeso... Show More

good performer with poor support
We're still giving this the test - but so far some observatins. Very good in low light - excellent picture quality all around. Some drawbacks: no direct lanc connection - you need an adapter cable which seems unnecessary. Worse of all - Sony hasn't released a functioning Final Cut plugin for transferring the higher res XAVC files. We will order 12 of these cameras if and when that happens - but we were terribly burnt by Sony's complete lack of su... Show More

Great picture a Great control
This camera does it all, has it all and is priced right! Can't wait for the forthcoming 4K upgrade.

Great camera for the price
Had my eye on this camera for over 3 months as I transitioned from just being an editor to shooter/editor. I like the small form factor and the quality of the footage and the fact that there will be a 4K firmware upgrade sometime next year

For the side of this camera it is impressive how this camcorder record , so many friends are selling the Sony Ex1 because the specification of the sony PXW-70 it seen to be better . I personal have this camcorder for few weeks & the Sony Pmw -Ex1 is much more better for wedding videos also low light.Sony Pxw-x70 it is Extreme good for the price, overall wait for the new replacement Pxw-x70 maybe 1 year DO NOT SALE YOUR EX1 FOR THIS CAMCORDER.

Nice action stabilizer
I'm giving 4 stars only because I haven't fully tested this yet. I just got it in the mail and turned it on. I can say the quality is all there. The camera has a super solid feel all around. The lens is pretty awesome too. I do a lot of run and gun, so my immediate concern was the stabilizer. The standard setting wasn't doing the job, but when switching to action stabilizer, it performs beautifully. I walked around with it and the shot looks super smooth. I will not need to get a steady cam!

Must have
I purchased from B&H and have this camera on hand the next day. Have used it over the weekend. I still have problem with the audio record in both internal mic or external mic (Sennheiser MKE 600). It does not have audio play back on any of the software I have on my PC including the VLC Media Player nor the Adobe Premiere CC. But it does have audio playback on the camera it self. One other thing I am very surprised to know is that in order to reco... Show More
