Hi there is a website that states compared to the ax53 the ax43 has a new built-in gimbal stabilizer and better sound, is that true? Also what are the other differences between them besides the missing evf like the lcd dot quality, night mode shooting and user interface?
Asked by: Hel
I'm an ax33 user and love it. To me the big step up is 20x zoom vs 10x (but ax53 has 20x). The bigger step up would be 4k 60. And no viewfinder or manual ring is a step down.

Asked by: Meladee
I shoot at the highest resolution 4K and find that a 128GB card is perfect. Lasts about two hours which is about as long as the battery lasts.

Yes. The Sony FDR AX43 will allow you to record to an SD card while outputting a clean HDMI signal to an external monitor simultaneously, without affecting the record process of the SD card.
