According to our camcorder expert
The Sony FDR-AX53 is a camcorder for advanced videographers. You can record realistic footage in 4K, thanks to the combination of the Zeiss Vario-Sonnar lens and Exmor R CMOS sensor. In Full HD, you'll record at 100fps so you can decelerate videos to make slow-motion recordings. The microphone suppresses white noise and picks up sound from 5 different directions. This allows you to make recordings with natural sounding audio. The AX53 has 20x optical zoom, so you can zoom in on your subject without losing image quality. The 64GB memory card offers space for about 18,000 photos or 640 minutes of Full HD movies. With a write speed of 60MB/s, you can capture about 6 frames per second. As a result, this memory card is suitable to record on Ultra HD settings.

If you only film in 4K, save up for one that does that in 50p. But they are very expensive.

I've had the camera for 2 months now and have enjoyed it immensely. the picture quality at 1920 x 1080 50p is truly stunning. the only downside is that you can't record 4K at 50 fps, but that's what the price is for. the optical zoom is excellent, but you do need a good tripod or a steady hand for that. furthermore, the stabilization of both lens and sensor is fantastic. for close-up images, you hardly need a tripod anymore. You also have the option to choose from different settings which you want to manually put on the manual ring so that you can easily adjust it while recording your video. I did buy an external microphone with deadcat after the first time filming for better sound recording.

The device makes beautiful images, so-called shocking images, which I have read of some, I do not have. I am not a pan zoom tilt freak anyway, but if I have this device on a tripod for a quiet pan or tilt shot, I switch off the stabilization, otherwise it will work against each other and yes, shaky images result, logical .
Boss is really boss, (stabilization) I was filming and deliberately shaking this camera and it can be seen minimally on a 65 inch 4K TV, just impressive. Very often and in many cases I use a tripod for composition and to make nice tight images. I don't want to get seasick from what I make and I certainly don't want to do it to someone else who looks at it. But, with this device if you hold it normally and film along normally, you don't need a tripod. I do take the tripod with me when I travel, but I'm pretty sure I don't need it with this device.
I plan to film everything in 4k or UHD I need 1080p a matter of downscaling. Think of the SD cards. With a card of 32 gigabytes you are filmed very quickly in 4K, especially if you are not able to transfer it to a laptop or other device at the end of the day.
As you can read the only downside, the Sony menu system. If I set something manually and press ok I want to continue in the menu but that is not possible, you have to start all over again, too bad.
Otherwise a nice camera and not expensive for what you get.
