Sony MHS-PM1
Previous: Part 13
Flip UltraHD ComparisonNext: Part 15
Photo GalleryConclusion
The PM1's performance was pretty good, but the low light sensitivity was terrible. The real disappointment was the still image performance, where the PM1 failed to live up to its 5-megapixel classification.
We weren't convinced about the ease of use, either. The PM1 is complicated and confusing, compared to the Flip series. Besides having too many options, and cheap buttons, the software is much too complicated for beginners. However, if you prefer to have more control over your settings and want a small and compact camcorder, the Sony MHS-PM1 might be the one you are looking for. Final verdict: unique, but it's not the Flip.
