Body + Waterproof Case 09/08/2017 by DJ123
We have been using this for approximately a year and it is great. Our only issue is with the software, we have had to download a different programme in order to merge videos, think Sony need to work on their software.

Good action cam
Body + Live-View Remote Kit 11/05/2016 by Jerry P67
Great cam. After watching on YouTube comparison of those small Sony action cams I realized that that one is the one the best fits what I want. Would be nice if there would be available lens caps. I made some out of silicon DIY because I didn't find any on market. Test it and happy with it. It has the FOV of 170° and reasonable resolution I like. The wrist remote control is just awesome with it's small monitor on it. I don't know but maybe Sony has always something better than others doesn't have. That's why I has chosen Sony. Small detail which make big difference.

Great camera, great price,
HDR-AS200V / HDR-AS200VB / HDR-AS200VT / HDR-AS200VR 10/02/2016 by MyNicknameWasTaken
The package sold is the AS200VR model. This includes the Live View Remote worn on your wrist to control the camera - this is handy if the camera is mounted to your helmet/bike. For the price that is great value. It's compact, shoots good quality video and the image stabilisation keeps things reasonably smooth. To use the highest video setting, ensure you get a card which is fast enough. I got a 64GB SDXC UHS-1 (48MB/s) which works fine, but check the R/W speeds, they're not all the same!

Great new camera for action filming!
Body + Live-View Remote Kit 05/02/2016 by Edoo
Through all of reviews and suggestions from colleagues, I've decided to buy this model of action cam, and haven't gone wrong with any of choice. Films great even on 720p/120fps, all filmed videos feels great on any other media replay as well as brings great material to continue to work with. Great ability to choose from 120 to 170 degree video filming. One thing that really missing is small zoom.

It is a very sad piece of equipment! Worked for one day with good quality videos & on my second day discovered that all my skydives were not filmed & when I searched for help I discovered that a lot of people had the same issue!

Produces nice footage. Long life.
Body + Live-View Remote Kit 05/10/2015 by Deema
You get the sony quality, slick profile (for paintball marker mounting) nice battery life (of course replaceable with additional power pack) 1 button recording. Image stabilizer via 120 degree FoV (170 deg. FoV without stabilizer) Vivid colors - is a Must. Bought the VR version - remote control and lcd screen is a pleasant bonus for little extra money. I wish only for more precise and crisp image recording starting at a distance 20 meters and more "in action" it is the Action Cam, right? (paintball stress test)

Body + Waterproof Case 25/09/2015 by smurf2002
I do a lot of motorcycle track days and had a few other camera's. All of them suffer from severe video vibration, I must say the Sony as200v is the best I have ever seen! Stable with GPS and speed tracking what more do you want! It is small and the variety of mounts make it easy to mount anywhere as you can change the angle of the video recording :) Any if you like to show of your track god status get one of them!

Body + Bike Mount Kit 31/08/2015 by Paul C
The AS200VB is the bike accessories version and comes with most things you need to get going. The live veiw remote is easy to use and setup with the camera. An extra battery is required if you need to video more than an hours worth of footage. Turning of the gps and wifi does extend the battery life and the camera is easy to use on its own without the LVR. A better anti vibration mount would make video smoother but I have yet to try all the recording modes so will have to wait and see. However, the footage on rough down hills is very shaky when using the HD MP4 settings. All in all I'm pleased with the camera so far.

Fantastic HD Camera - not so good accessories
Body + Live-View Remote Kit 15/06/2015 by NixRSV4
Bought the AS200V a few weeks ago, my main aim was to allow me to put it on my motorbike and record some ride outs with friends. Unfortunatley Sony dont make any decent (strong) clamps to allow you to safely and securely fit it to a high speed motorbike, the only option is the adhesive mounts, which i am loathe to stick to my fairings as they may damage the paintwork. I have had to resort to using a GoPro adapter (alumimium) and a Aluminium clamp for a Wasp Cam, as the plastic clamps and mounts that Sony and GoPro produce are to flimsy. If you are not a Biker and intend to use this camera for other, less high speed, activities then i am sure the plastic mounts would suffice. As for the camera, it easily beats the top of the range GoPro, fantastic picture quality, though do bearin mind that you will need a very high speed class10 card to get the most out of this camera. All in all a brilliant product let down by lack of good quality mounting options. Sony, if your reading this, MAKE ALUMINIUM MOUNTS :)

3 test runs and I'm impressed. Used for mountain biking and mounted firstly using Sony mount which is too bulky and vibrates a touch. Now use KEdge mount which is better. Battery life is quite poor though. Still a superb gadget

Has amazing video quality and is great for what i need, however the gps does not seem to work in the movie creator even though in play memories it says it does have gps information. I do not know if this is the camera or the softwares fault however it would be good to be sorted.

My First Action Cam
Body + Live-View Remote Kit 11/04/2015 by Peam
Having pondered for ages whether or not to buy an action cam, I finally decided to take the plunge. For me their were only 2 cams in the running, GoPro Hero 4 Silver and the Sony HDR AS200 and from the multitude of reports and reviews I read I chose the Sony for the following reasons, in no particular order. Price, image stabilisation, ease of use, familiarity with other Sony products and battery life to name just a few. I have a big programme or half marathons, triathlons and, mainly, cyclo sportives this year so this camera will come in useful to record all this. I've had it for a couple of weeks now and haven't hit any problems. I haven't used the HD recording yet, but the MP4 mode is excellent. Battery life is good but GPS and WiFi do run it down more quickly, I bought a couple of spare batteries which is probably essential for longer events. For mounting on my handlebars I bought a K-Edge Go Big Pro mount and adapter - a REALLY good but expensive mount. I also bought the Sony Universal head mount kit, it is very versatile and includes everything you need to put the camera on your bonce :) The Live View remote works well and is great for framing your shots, I find it more convenient than using my Xperia mobile for this purpose. All in all, so far, I'm a satisfied customer.

HDR-AS200 - My first Action Camera
Body + Live-View Remote Kit 16/03/2015
After placing an order for this back in January it finally arrived in March. I've been using it mainly on my DJI Phantom and I'm pretty happy with it so far. Good picture on video and single still shots are ok.What is disappointing about the camera is when using in 'Interval' mode, the still pictures taken are only low res (approx 2mp) and not the full resolution. As I wanted to get some great aerial shots from above this is a major shortcoming of the camera and as the range of the live view is limited I can't remotely get the camera to take single shot pictures at full resolution/best quality. I purchased a range of mounts and accessories and these are of good build quality and i'm very happy with these.
