In the past week, Sony announced one of it's latest releases, the HDR-AS50 Action Cam. They've listened to the suggestions and complaints from consumers to create a top of the line, user-friendly, feature-rich action camera that's built for capturing quality footage on your most exciting adventures.

Cruel camera with good image. Having used both for downhill skiing and diving (18 m). Completely hassle. The battery lasts a few hours of skiing. With the camera in the accompanying house sound disappears almost completely. Super good ...

In response to the comment of the case not having holes for the mic., well, it wouldn't be waterproof if the case that allows the camera to be waterproof had holes...don't you think

I've had this Sony Action Camera for about a week and use it motorcycling. Getting used to it, its options, and trying different mounts. I think I'm going to like it and the videos look pretty good. Over coming vibration is a challenge.

Sony's Action Cam range is pretty diverse, ranging from the entry-level AS20 all the way up to the 4K-capable X1000V. The HDR-AS50 sits just above the former, but it's still firmly at the cheaper end of the line-up.

Long battery life; Still image quality is good; Decent companion app; Removable battery; Solid construction

Mediocre video quality; Only one adhesive mount included; Heavy in its waterproof case; So-so low-light performance

I Bought this a month ago and man this cam is awesome on all my adventures this camera takes the best shots and the waterproof housing is also the best.Best cam for this budget

The HDR-AS50 I bought has lived up to all the expectations I had after reading many reviews. I was looking for a low cost quality action cam to take video of good quality. Mainly skiing and other cultural events in our locality. I am also very impressed with the quality of time lapse capture in 4k.

The Sony HDR-AS50 is an affordable action camera. It has an 11.1 megapixel back-illuminated CMOS sensor paired with a Zeiss Tessar lens, and features advanced SteadyShot image stabilisation.

Would highly recommend

i bought this for my son for our holidays ,i like it very much i made a good choice its better than mine ,really pleased with it i am sure my son will like it .
