Based on price and filming outcome, it is a really valuable camcorder, which provide you high quality video and audio. I have used it more than 3 years for wedding and events.

Rated 4 out of 5

I have only filmed one sporting event with it so far, but have no real complaints other than the viewfinder.

Replaced my Sony DV tape camcorder with the Sony HXR-MC2500 camcorder. I like the larger camcorders for recording sports, because of the size it's easier to follow the action. The Sony HXR-MC2500 is actually lighter than the previous camcorders, so following the action was even easier. The reason I gave it 4 stars and not 5 was because of the viewfinder has spots and white outlines that make it hard to follow your subjects at a distance.

Sony HXR-MC2500

All I can say is - well satisfied. Everything I need for live streaming, recording and camera does very well in low light setting.

a good buy

I bought this camera as I was launching out into videography and sony brand has always known to deliver and I realize that most media house uses them. Based on my research this was the camera that came up on my radar as it has a lot of features and really nice for a beginner. Am still going through this baby as there is a lot to learn. A,m a but disappointed on the battery life. I only Got about 3 hours of recording time from the battery that came with it. overall its not bulky nor heavy to carry around, pretty light for the size. A little pricey though. Still a good buy.

Great shoulder-mount camera ...

Comfortable shoulder mount. NPF550 battery lasts a long time. Custom white balance is a snap. Good picture (not 4K mind you) and face tracking works well. It's hefty, like the older tape models, but it feels like a serious camera. But by no means lite. Speaking of light- the built-in one is convenient. 32GB internal memory, plus another SD card slot. Has a shotgun mic included but it's of little quality, so if you use another one you'll need an adapter for the mini stereo input. Not a big deal but that's why I rated it 4 stars out of 5. Overall, it's a basic shoulder mount camcorder that can be a solid workhorse if you shoot long-form events.

Sony HXR-MC2500 AVCHD Shoulder Mount Camcorder, 1/4 Exmor R CMOS HD, SD AVCHD

I have used this camera in our church to stream the service using Telestream and it gives me a super picture even when I have it 70 feet from the platform, and the lighting is not good either. I also used it to record a wedding which turned out very good even though they requested very low light in the room. I would definitely recommend this camera to anyone looking for a good low cost camera.

Not as good as my HXR-MC2000U

I had a HXR-MC2000U which had some problem with video signal, but its specification is much better than this new model HXR-MC2500. First this one is made in China, something I don't like it at all. Its view screen is not touch control, and the button that I use most is: PLAY is not there anymore. You have to browse using a button with some clicks to find that "Play" button. I don't have a chance to use it yet, so I don't know if it is the same quality like my old HXR-MC2000U or not. My old one has 64Gig internal memory, this one has ONLY 32Gig.

Excellent Camera.

Iam a still photographer and now I started to take video. After a 2 weeks long research with couple of cameras, I have decided to buy this. And Iam really happy after buying this camera. It is really a perfect camcorder for a beginner.
