User questions & answers

Question:	Can you get an external charger to charge the battery, or can you only charge the battery via USB while it is in the camera
Answer:	Surprised someone is still asking about this and not really sure what you mean but...If you mean how many hours I ran it or its reliability I used it hundreds of hours over years and many drops and bangs and last I checked it still worked. If you mean battery life I think it was about 30 hours maybe 40 with radio or no song skipping.It was a great player and I using it heavily without fail through most of the ipod revolution. It wasn't until I got my ipod classic 4th gen 80 gig that I retired the sony. The ipod for double the price or so went from 120 songs to thousands. Fully shockproof, smaller more pocketable and better rechargable battery. The sony may have lasted longer though technologically as it was only a few years before I went to streaming through pandora. Still use the ipod where there is no data. Even then I miss directory forward/ back buttons of the sony. Ipod jog wheels suck especially when driving.
Question:	How long does it take to charge the battery
Answer:	are you referring to "rewritable" CDs as in a CD you created? Yes, it does play them
Question:	How superior would you say this is compared to a 14mp camera? (I currently have an Olympus
Answer:	I honestly don't know. The batteries in this unit last for a long time and I never needed one. I can go through about 100 cd s on one change of batteries. That is a guess because it could be more.
Question:	What are the included items
Answer:	It has an ear phone port and that's what I use on my phone to connect to the car Aux port.

User questions & answers

Question:	I love the camera, but I cannot get it to capture still photos while recording a movie. Can somebody tell me how to do it
Answer:	Hello Harry, Please explain what you mean you cannot get still shots while recording. Do you want the camera to display still photos when you take them and you choose when to continue taking video. Or you cannot find your still photos after you take them, you only see the video. As I explained, possibly not clearly, when you are recording a video and you press the shutter button to take a photo, the camera do not interupt your video recording to display the picture. after completing your video you press the play/review button and then you will see the photos and the video when going in reverse order. if you review from begining you will see video first then your pictures.
Question:	I want to make sure I have everything I need to start shooting on day one. What accessories come in the box with the camera
Answer:	I would suggest at least ordering 55-mm UV filter (acts as lense protector so you should never have to wipe/clean the coatings on your expensive lense or worry about scratches). May want to consider a circular polarizing lens (linear polarizers supposedly don't work on sensor cameras). You will also want to have an SD, SDHC, or SDXC UHS-I (letter I vs an UHS-II interface) memory card that is at least Class 10 (C with a 10 in it), UHS-1 (number 1) or UHS-3 speed class which is U with a 1 or 3 in it. I suggest at least 16 GB, with 32 GB being better. I like videos, so I got 64 GB. A case to protect your camera would be nice. I also favor a better shoulder strap and a hand strap grip. One end of the hand strap should screw into the tripod mount and supply its own tripod mount hole to allow mounting to tripod without removing the strap.
Question:	can you use filters with this camera and if so what size does it take
Answer:	You can use 55mm filters with the Sony HX400V
Question:	can the camera be operated remotly with the smartphone for to take photos and make focus with wifi or another wireless methods
Answer:	Yes this camera can be operated remotely with smartphones. You can take the picture and zoom in and out. You can see the subject being photographed on the phone. It updates every 2 seconds.

When using the electronic viewfinder, the LCD can be used as a Touch Pad AF to shift focus smoothly and easily, simply by sliding your finger across the LCD screen.

10 fps4 with fast AF

During still photography, the HX99 can acquire focus in as little as 0.09 seconds, and can shoot continuously at up to 10 fps4 for up to 155 shots5. Continuous-shot images can also be displayed, deleted and protected in groups.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is there a memory chip I need to buy to store photos
Answer:	You have to buy the memory chip separately. It does not matter how many GB, as far as as quality is concerned. If you are just an average photographer, you are not going to store thousands of photos in your camera.
Question:	Help!! i needed this camera asap but it won't go pass the language screen. screen stays all fluid to touch. what am i doing wrong
Answer:	Hi madmc, for starters, turn off the camera, remove the battery and wait for 1 or 2 mins, then return the battery. Turn on the camera and follow onscreen steps for the initial setup. Use the wheel button for navigation. This Sony camera is NOT a touch screen. -Ely
Question:	How do I upload pictures to my computer with this camera
Answer:	Hi, when trying to download or import picture files from this camera to your computer, first is to connect the supplied USB cable from this camera to your computer.

If using Mac computer, after connecting the camera to your Mac computer. Double-click the newly recognized icon on the desktop - the folder in which the image you want to import is stored.

User questions & answers

Question:	I purchased a Fuji Finepix S4300 that gives me dark and yellowed photos when taken indoors. How does the Sony DSCW830/B rate for taking photos inside of an office
Answer:	The pictures are great! They come out nice, whether taken outdoors or indoors. I love that the camera can take panoramic pictures. My son and daughter have similar Sony cameras that they have had for awhile so I bought one because they recommended it.
Question:	How long of a lag time is there between shots? Does this camera have something like a burst mode; taking a rapid series of shots
Answer:	It does have a "burst mode"; however, it is not as you would expect it to be. It is a bit slower than the traditional DSLR/SLR. Thus far, as per my usage, it has been satisfactory. Suffice it to say that if you are looking to capture a hummingbird in perfect detail and in multiple shots, this camera will fall just a bit short.
Question:	Does the camera come with a memory card
Answer:	No. According to the help guide, "Using internal memory: The camera has approximately 27 MB of internal memory." You can purchase other media cards to store data on as well.
Question:	I am looking for something for my 80 + Mother so it needs to be simple, would this camera work for her
Answer:	Frankly, I would not recommend it. I bought it to replace an earlier Sony digital camera I had, which was truly a "point and shoot"- always gave great pictures. This one has an impressive list of features (I never use 99% of them) but I'm still having trouble simply "taking pictures". It's possible that it might work fine with the right settings, but I haven't had success. Example of the complexity- I printed out (from the online manual) the definitions of all the icons that can appear on the camera's screen- it's about four pages worth (!) of tiny nondescript icons which no "normal" person could memorize. Yeah, I'm old (75) and old-school, but I suspect your mom might not get satisfaction from this camera.

User questions & answers

Question:	What is acceptable status means
Answer:	THIS IS A GREAT CAMERA AND THE 50X ZOOM IS PERFECT!
Question:	What is included with the camera
Answer:	I see the two answers here say that the camera comes with a battery charger. Mine did not, nor was it listed as something that it was supposed to come with. It did come with a battery, and an AC adapter to charge the battery directly through the camera. I purchased two "Wasabi Power Battery (2 Pack) and Charger for Sony NP-BX1 and Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX1, DSC-RX100, HDR-AS10, HDR-AS15" for $18.99 each, giving me five batteries total, and two battery chargers. I can't possibly take that many pictures in one day, the batteries work as good as the Sony one, and I now can charge the batteries outside of the camera, which has to save wear and tear on it.
Question:	Does it come standard with GPS and Wifi
Answer:	No GPS or wifi. Great camera!
Question:	How would u compare it with the following cameras panasonic DMC FZ200, NIKON COOLPIX P520, SONY DSC-HX300 AND CANNON POWERSHOT SX 50HS
Answer:	I currently have the the HX300, but have previously tried (not just in a store, but purchased) the Nikon, Panasonic, and Canon (as well as the Fuji FinePix S8200) and the reasons I went with the Sony are: 1) ease of use 2) telephoto lens magnification 3) sensor resolution, 4) single lens (AKA individual shutter) 3D function, and 5) panoramic sweep function.Now, the Panasonic certainly had the brighter lens, but @24X, it is less than half of the Sony's 50X (the Nikon is 42X, the Fuji is 40X and the Canon is also 50X) and the Sony also has the highest resolution sensor of the group @ 20.4MP vs 12.1MP for the Panasonic, 12.1MP Canon, 16MP Fuji, and 18.1 Nikon).As far as ease of use, the Canon and especially the Nikon, are needlessly complicated when it comes to many common settings. The Sony's user interface is far superior to the rest of the field, but if the other cameras actually had comparable specs, this would not be that big a deal for me. The biggest reason this tilts the purchasing decision in Sony's favor is because I won't be the only one in the family who will use this camera, that's where ease of use becomes a big deal and it also relates to the other areas I listed.All of the cameras have a single lens 3D feature, Sony's, although it is hit or miss as far as depth is concerned, is the easiest. There is a dedicated spot on the dial for 3D on the Sony, all of the others force you to go through menus to select 3D. It is also implemented with one press of the shutter button. On the others, you have to shift the camera then press the shutter button a second time. This would be preferable if the camera gave you some guidance (as Olympus does - too bad they don't have a bridge camera that competes with the other specs of these cameras...), but without guidance, you can attempt to make 3D pictures that are completely off. For example, on at least one of Sony's competitors, after the first button press, you get to see the current view on the LCD superimposed as a less opaque image over the top of the 1st image, then you decide when you've created enough stereo depth to snap the 2nd image (which is then processed into one .mpo), but there's nothing to stop you from turning 180 degrees before taking that second picture. That's what's nice about the Olympus' guidance, you simply align two dots and it automatically takes the 2nd image.As far as the panoramic feature goes, again, the same is true for Olympus' guidance that allows you to stitch 3 images together. The Sony and the rest use a sweep motion. I found the Sony to be more forgiving of the sweep speed than the rest. The Panasonic often failed to capture an image if I didn't sweep across (or up and down) at just the right speed and length of time. The Canon, Nikon, and Fuji were almost just as bad.Finally, the combination of LCDs on the Sony are the best of the bunch with as good a resolution as the Nikon on the 3" LCD (though Nikon's is 3.2") and the best Electronic View Finder (although you have to press a button). Canon's LCD is half the resolution and only 2.8". The Panasonic's is also half the resolution (but the same size).Also, once you become accustomed to the fact that it is actually there, Sony's (power) zoom ring is a really nice feature. CONS: 1) The Panasonic, Nikon, and Canon all have LCDs that can be flipped to the side and rotated, whereas the Sony's can only tilt (the Fuji's is fixed). 2) The Nikon has GPS for geo-tagging. This is a useless feature for me, but someone else might not feel the same way... 3) compared to the others, Sony's, "selective color" feature (where you are basically taking a black & white picture except for where the selected color is present) only allows one to choose from only 4 colors, whereas the Fuji has 8 and the Nikon, 16 (or the other way around - regardless, the Sony has the fewest color choices of them all).

Question:	Do the batteries go bad quickly? Lost charger, bought new one, but won't charge. Battery or did the camera go bad
Answer:	Hi Amazon Customer, to check if there is a problem with either the battery or the camera, I would suggest trying to charge the battery in-camera using the supplied USB cable and plugging it in to a computer or a wall socket with an AC adaptor. If the battery is charging, then the issue may lie on the charger itself. If not, replace the battery with a fully charged one. If the camera still won't turn on, the camera may need service. Thanks_Mitch

A bright 2.7" Clear Photo LCD 230k-dot monitor at the back allows you to clearly view your photos and high-quality 720p HD videos.

For more zoom, a 10x digital zoom function doubles the camera's reach and Sony's SteadyShot Image Stabilization with Active mode compensates for camera shake to help provide clearer images with minimal blur and low noise, even while you stroll around. For shooting at an even wider angle, try the 360? Sweep Panorama, which allows you to press the shutter button and sweep your camera around to gather in your entire landscape and take many high-resolution images and automatically combine them into one photograph.

Taking pictures has never been easier. Use the camera's Easy Mode for simplifying your menu and the camera's internal guide to answer all your questions without carrying around the instruction manual. To avoid missing those smiling faces in your shots, simply turn on the Smile Shutter Technology, which takes a picture whenever a smile is detected, based on your preferences. For convenient charging, USB charging is available with the camera allowing you to charge your device right from your computer.
