    I’ve been using the Sony-Hx300 camera for the last 3 weeks mostly on manual mode and it works great, it actually allows you to start using some professional camera settings, low light performance it’s not the best but with the correct settings you can definitely have great quality pictures. Great option to use it as a travel camera

    Hi! Good review! one question,,, is it good in poor-light conditions? like sunset, or shots at night (city landscapes). thanks!!

    • @JohnSisonPhotography
      @JohnSisonPhotography  9 років тому +5

      Laura B. tabari For sunsets it stills performs damn good but at night scenes it may struggle a bit but the good is that you can use multi frame noise reduction where the camera will take 2-6 photos and stitch them together to get a noise free image (best to use on stationary subjects).

    In this particular case, I bought for example the HX200V for travels and stuff like that. If you are an enthusiast photographer you will be very pleased with the camera, giving you options and tools to take the pictures you want. The low light shots aver great, the 10fps option is great also for speedy conditions and you have also the antiblur scene, wich I suppose is in the HX300 too. Oh, and the video quality of the camera is AMAZING. AVCHD 1080p 60p to be precise.

    This video helped me a lot about buying a super-zoom camera.... Out of the 3 super-zoom cameras they have in store today the Sony HX300 impresses me more with the amount of zoom and megapixels.

    Yes you can control the focus manually. There is a switch on the side of the lens which allows you to change from manual focus to manually zooming in.

    It depends what you want most out of your camera. If you prefer having a longer zoom, the HX300 would be the better choice. If you value image quality and low light performance, the a58 would be the way to go.

    • @Blamedonnie
      @Blamedonnie Місяць тому +3

      Yes, it's worth it. I still use mine and it's a fantastic camera But it has huge limitations compared to what's new on the market.
      1: fixed narrow lens
      2: handheld stabilizer is trash
      3: video traps out at 1080p
      4: no external mic jack
      5: The shutter is slow and only gets slower when you do a burst of pictures.
      I've learned to work around these issues and use it accordingly.

    I have had my Sony DSC-HX300 for almost a year now and I absolutely love it. My only problem is that I still need to learn a lot about it and I don't know what else to do. It has been one of the best purchases I have ever made and I highly recommend it to others. If there is any way that you could maybe help me learn a little more about the camera that would be a big help. But overall I love it!!!!!

    It is now an older model, but yet I bought another one yesterday from an individual. It was not used much at all.
    I gave my last one to a good friend as a thank you for some help on a project. I also have an HX400v so I didn't really miss it.
    I bought the one today because I know that my HX400v is not going to last forever and if it breaks I want a backup in hand.
    I also have a Lumix FZ80 which has higher specifications like 4k, touchscreen, 60x zoom, etc. But the Sony just works better.
    It's like Toyota vs. Nissan. Or Toyota vs. Infinity even. Toyota wins all day every day.

    My h300 does not look like this..

    • @JohnSisonPhotography
      @JohnSisonPhotography  7 років тому +1

      Your model is slightly different. The H300 is the entry level model to the HX300 which is the higher end version.

  • @JohnSisonPhotography
    @JohnSisonPhotography  11 років тому

    The reason is because the a57 has a larger sensor than the HX300 despite having more megapixels. Megapixels mainly count if you're printing large photos but sensor size plays a large part in image quality.

    You can get good footage and photos with the HX300 as well. Just have to shoot in good lighting conditions and once you know its limitations, it'll be easy to work around them.

    There are two on the market which are highly rated and that is the HX300 and the SX50. I haven't used the SX50 extensively so I would probably suggest trying them both out at a camera store.

    I suggest you try both of them in a camera store because I haven't used the SX50.

  • @JohnSisonPhotography
    @JohnSisonPhotography  11 років тому +1

    Despite the increase in megapixels, I found the HX300 to be just as good in lowlight, if not slightly better.

  • @JohnSisonPhotography
    @JohnSisonPhotography  11 років тому

    Unfortunately there is no accessory terminal like the NEX-5N on the HX50V and I doubt there would be one on the NEX-7N. The FDA-EV1MK is the viewfinder that can be used on the HX50 which is the same one as the RX1. As for the mic you're going to have to get a new one too.

  • @JohnSisonPhotography
    @JohnSisonPhotography  11 років тому

    If I was on a budget, I would probably go for the HX200 but if you really need the 50x optical zoom and a slight increase in megapixels then the HX300 is worth saving just that bit more for.

  • @JohnSisonPhotography
    @JohnSisonPhotography  11 років тому

    I haven't used the HS50 so I can't give you a proper opinion on it but I suggest trying them both out at a store.

  • @JohnSisonPhotography
    @JohnSisonPhotography  11 років тому

    WIFI allows you to use an internet connection to transfer images, GPS allows you to tag your photos on a map of where you've been, RAW capture is digital negative that allows you to edit your photos in post without much loss in quality. DSLR stands for Digital Single Lens Reflex. Take out the Digital part and its that SLR acronym. The HX300 is still a cyber shot but just a different type. Its a superzoom camera. You might want to check out the WX300 since its slim or even the TX30.

  • @JohnSisonPhotography
    @JohnSisonPhotography  11 років тому +1

  • @JohnSisonPhotography
    @JohnSisonPhotography  11 років тому

    If you want good very good low light performance and image quality, I'd say go for the a57 and get a zoom lens to go with it. Perhaps the 18-250mm lens, although it will be large kit you'll have.

  • @JohnSisonPhotography

    • @JohnSisonPhotography
      @JohnSisonPhotography  6 років тому

      Minimum focusing distance is 1cm at the widest focal length. Really good for macro shooting! Low light shooting is good but given how old this camera is, there are better options now for low light. Although, I will say this is still capable of getting good shots.

    • @JohnSisonPhotography

      i guess i turn to 3rd parties on this, its a truly excellent product, i enjoy taking photos with it, what other cameras aside from the HX300 offer a built in help guide on board them for the type of camera it is?

    • @JohnSisonPhotography

  • @JohnSisonPhotography
    @JohnSisonPhotography  11 років тому

    If you purchase this from the US which looks like you are, the max is 60p which is good for slow motion. In Australia its $100 more.

  • @JohnSisonPhotography
    @JohnSisonPhotography  11 років тому

    The NX1000 and the HX300 are two very different cameras as the NX1000 is an interchangeable lens camera with a larger sensor. Its supposed to give you better image and video quality than the HX300. However, they're sensors aren't that good at the moment compared to other manufacturers. A lot of the footage that you've seen depends on how the person uses their camera too! The HX300 can go up to 1200mm and with the lens you suggested with the NX1000, can go to 50-200mm. So very different there.

    Can you manually adjust the shutter speed? Can you manually adjust the F Stop? If so what are they're ranges? I have a Lumix LX7 and I can adjust the shutter speeds and the f stop. The shutter speeds can be as slow as 4 minutes to 1/20,000th of a second. I can adjust the f stop using the dial on the back of the camera or using the aperture ring. They're ranges are F1.2 - F8.0

Because I'm looking for a camera like that , and not expensive and I found this one . Does it focus good? I need focus a lot for my videos . I have a Nikon CoolpixL320 ( 26x Zoom ) and it doesn't focus that good , and the quality ( hope I wrote fine ) is worse without zoom than this camera with 50x zoom on . I hope you can respond me .

    Is this camera only good outdoors? When does it become grainy? Can we use this at night time? How does the shot looks like when capturing a neon light?
    Is this camera decent enough for a beginner photographer?

    • @RockDrum3r
      @RockDrum3r 10 років тому

      The "grainyness" is all going to be factored by your ISO/vector/aperture. As long as you know your way around the settings (when used in manual mode) you can avoid grainyness in almost all scenarios. It's good for a beginner, just know that it wont take you above and beyond in the photography world. It'll take awesome photos, but the lens is built in, so if you ever get far enough to want new lenses you'll have to look elsewhere.

    Hey, would you suggest this over Nikon 3200 with 200mm lens for birding!!

    • @JohnSisonPhotography
      @JohnSisonPhotography  11 років тому

      It depends on what you value more. If its image quality, then the Nikon D3200 would be the better choice but if you prefer having more zoom, the HX300 would be the better choice.

      For birding I guess I zoom place a role but still i need a fair image quality aswell! So I am confused!

      Santosh G P The HX300 still delivers good image quality, you can always wait for the RX10 but that's going to be a high priced camera.

    So with this shutter speed will it be possible to do light painting ?
    And out of this Sony Cyber-shot DSC-HX300 Point & Shoot and canon sx50, which do you suggest.??

    Hey John,
    Can you do a review on how to change shutter speed, color change, iso, and such like that? Thanks I am thinking about getting this camera and would like to know how to use it.

    Hi John do you think is good for wedding videos?

    • @JohnSisonPhotography
      @JohnSisonPhotography  8 років тому

      +PHOTOSHOOTS BRENDA REYES Not the best option to be honest. I would probably go for something that is better quality with more manual controls and features.

    That's the point, the features that Sony is implementing in their cameras are awesome. For this kind of semi-professional cameras I don't have ANY doubt that Sony is winning by far, but people always seems to go for the sure thing, like Canon or Nikon. It sounds reasonable, but don't hesitate. It's not a Alpha DSLT, but it's works incredible well. The grip is AMAZING compared to both N and C, it weights nothing. And it's really EASY to use. You'll need 2 days to get used to the camera's menus.

    I ended buying this stony today. I was also thinking of getting the canon t3 or nikon 3200. Would you take back the sony for either dslr?

    • @JohnSisonPhotography
      @JohnSisonPhotography  10 років тому

      It really depends on what you prefer more, image quality or a lot of zoom. Because the sensor size is a lot smaller than a DSLR you won't get as good image quality or low light performance compared to the T3 or D3200 but since those sensors are so large you won't ever get the amount of zoom that you would get in a small sensor camera.

    Hi! Which camera you recommend? This (HX300) or it's predecessor, the HX200? The price difference btw these 2 models is ~30% in advantage of the HX200. Does this new model worth it's (extra) money? (I have an old Sony - DSC-H9, and i was very pleased of it, this would be an upgrade, which one you recommend?). Thanks, Ati.

      Unfortunately you can't. You can do this on the newer model, the HX400 and download the stop motion app.

    You just need to press the viewfinder/lcd button on the top of the camera, just below the power button.
