Are the good for taking Videos?

Kinda... Because the iPhone automatically zooms in when you turn it to record you can't really tell when it's on the fish eye lens. The macro is cool when recording and I'm not sure about the wide lens, but I'd assume it is. For sure not the fish eye though.

It's more for taking photos than videos I believe. I'm happy with the photos it takes.

this would be a great camrea just for that. it will take great shoots, but team that up with a good speed flash and you got a killer camera.

Sorry I just use for my photography. I have not used my camera for video. I have old Fuji 5 mp that takes the best video of anything I have ever used even new sony. I still use the old xd Fuji.

Yes, you can record videos - and for a longer time than I used to be able to do with older cameras.

I have a high speed hd card. But if you dont mind lower quality videos you can use any sd card. Mine was under 20 I believe and holds a ridiculous amount of pictures.

You can take video, stills & stills during video...my pics are always clear.

It does a good job with video, as it's HD, at 720p. However, it doesn't seem to adjust focus well, if you change the telephoto setting while filming. It's better to stop recording, adjust your teldphoto lens to where you want it, then re-focus before recording again. I have not uploaded to YouTube yet, so I can't comment on that, but it should work OK.

No, its a cinema camera, so it only takes video. For pictures could just buy something from cannon's Eos line, Panasonic, Nikon (most dslr's will work fine plus some can shoot good video). But if you want something that take good video and photos look at Panasonic's GH line, especially the GH4 which is becoming quite popular right now.

Hi Macloud, It would depend on the quality and duration of the videos you would like to shoot. It is recommended for you to have extra batteries and cards for back up. The compatible battery is the NP-FV70, the card is a Memory Stick Pro Duo. Thanks_Mitch

Most video devices will require a card of these specs to capture best images. When comparing specs this Sony, is a good buy for money.

It is good for YouTube videos under most circumstances. For the price, it is a good deal.

This is a good camera for taking excellent photos with a massive array of available Pentax lenses. Video is not one of its strong points, and I do not recommend it for video. Buy a cheap video camera for video and use the K-30 for photos. Even the less expensive video cameras still surpass the video capabilities of most of the latest and greatest DSLRs.

Yes, it takes great video. Very user friendly. Just be aware that it automatically turns off every 30 minutes. Not knowing that screwed me up big time the first time I used it for video.

this camera is great for a lightweight professional kit, as a compliment to a more expensive camera or as a tool for the independent blogger. However, if you're looking to start making videos, there are plenty of cheaper options. Get a decent (sub$400) canon or sony consumer camcorder, and invest instead in stuff like lighting, a tripod, and a field recorder like the zoom h4n if you want better audio. Spend your savings on something like Lynda.com (tutorials) and a subscription to Adobe CC (creative software suite) to teach you everything you need to do to make your videos look their best.

NO. This camera does not take video. This is a really old model that is over 10 years old. It's a great film camera, but your question implies you want a modern digital camera with video capabilities. This is not that camera.
