    Super camera

    I bought this camera as a second camera for my SONY RX-100 mk V, because this camera (HX99) can zoom up to 720mm.
    As a 2nd camera, this is super and only recommended. You can set almost everything yourself (ISO, aperture,
    lighting time, white balance, etc.). Also for beginners a super camera.
    The picture is very good and sharp, but only in good light. Since the sensor is very small (which allows the large zoom) the light sensitivity is not very good.
    The stabilization is not the best, especially at high zoom.
    The video quality is surprisingly good, but it is recommended to use a gimbal.
    Amazing zoom!

    So as a second camera for an RX100 or larger mirrorless/ DSLR camera or if you want to upgrade from a cell phone highly recommended.
    Also recommended as a skin camera if you don't have too big demands.
