I bought myself the HX5 camera about 1,5 years ago and have been quite happy with it. However, what bothers me really is the sound quality. Just as you confirm with some of your tests from 2010. I will attend an important concert in few weeks. Could you recommend any solution how to improve the recording audio as much as possible? Thanks a lot and have a cracker! ;-)<br />PS: Will the possible replacement of HX5V with HX9V make me much happier, ie. will I see better quality pictures and videos with better audio quality?andre99https://www.blogger.com/profile/01449782955094875615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8454169405531020653.post-64896174098636072932012-01-12T01:15:03.705+00:002012-01-12T01:15:03.705+00:00Pierre, if you want to make money with the photos ...Pierre, if you want to make money with the photos the NEX 5, 7 or A55 /A65 are the better choicesJoehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07125134089284632898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8454169405531020653.post-12306048756945451152012-01-11T06:48:16.386+00:002012-01-11T06:48:16.386+00:00I'm trying to decide between the HX9V and the ...I'm trying to decide between the HX9V and the NEX7.

This camera..the H70 is a piece of crap for the price! I can't wait for the store to open in the morning to get a refund or swap for something else. The H70 has no iris - just a two stage min/max like the cheapest crappy camera you could buy. You cannot adjust sharpness (only apply USM of unknown degree). There's no b&w, color, jpeg fine/normal etc. It's utter bullshit for the price tag. The Jpegs are crud from ISO 400 and up. I hope someone in the market for a decent pocket camera reads this and makes a better purchase.

I know you can get the 7V as a bundle at the local shopping wharehouse. The 9V is a good $100. more by the time you purchase the case and card. I have been disappointed with my canon, because it took lousy pictures in the school auditoriums in low light and 4X zoom is certainly not enough.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8454169405531020653.post-88707117542464564502011-06-25T22:00:55.829+01:002011-06-25T22:00:55.829+01:00But I do have the money for the hx7v, is there a m...But I do have the money for the hx7v, is there a main difference between the 5 and 7?
