This was Sony’s first full-frame prosumer camcorder and I love this thing. Easier form factor to work with than an A7/DSLR and takes e-mount lenses. Offers the benefit of being able to shoot video without limit (no 30-minute limit as there was on earlier DSLRs). We have been using it just as a camera for coverage of the drums when performing and wanting a video angle to cut to. Great camera!
