DVGuru reports that Camcorderinfo’s review of the Sony HDR-FX7 has been posted. And it’s not a very glowing recommendation for the FX7. Here’s a few snippets to ponder:

“Sony has categorized the HDR-FX7 as a consumer camcorder, despite the very un-consumer MSRP of $3500…and Canon’s XH A1 makes a very persuasive contender at a mere $500 more…The FX7’s ClearVID CMOS sensors make a great impression in bright light, but under low light conditions the performance falls to pieces…The XH A1 has a ton of great audio features and the Sony FX7 doesn’t…We like the HDR-FX7 in itself…But in a comparative, competitive market, it simply can’t hold a candle to its main challenger.”
