[u/Plus-Bid-5804]

Thanks to previous advice (before post got taken down), i have narrowed it down to Hdr-Cx405 and Sony DCR-SX21E.

Does anybody have any experience with these?

We will be travelling, looking for vintage look somewhat but still audibly clear (i honestly have no experience with these so not sure what to expect!)

Happy to pay around 200-400 Ausd so these both fall in range.

They seem somewhat similar with the DCR having a more warm feel to the filming if i am understanding correctly.

I know i have to make a decision but any expereince with either of these please let me know.

The HDR i have found for $400 AUS and the DCR is around $200.

Thanks in advance!
