User reviews:
Pros: Keeps in the Sony tradition of quality pictures and video. Haven't used the extreme features yet such as underwater photography, but the compact design easily fits in your pocket.
Cons: The software platform is cumbersome, the touch screen is clunky, and trying to upload videos to your computer sucks. Your videos are shot in HD video format and that file is unreadable by all major video viewing and editing software.
But, you may find it shoots AVCHD videos in 1080/60i, which is not the perfectly playable and editable format for video viewing and editing software like Final Cut Pro, Final Cut Express, iMovie, etc from reviews.
