Tv is just ok but first let me start off by saying one of the issues I have with this purchase is that a week after I purchased it I got an email from Best Buy saying the tv was now $30 cheaper. Unfortunately I could not make it in that day and came in a couple days later and they would not honor that pricing.
Now for the tv. It's just ok. The picture is fine, about the same as all the others in its range the real problem is it's smart tv functions and menu controls, basically they both are awful and very frustrating. I had a SONY for years and was use to the simplicity and ease of its functions, This Samsung falls short. I have nothing but issues now with the Netflix app as I constantly have to delete it and reinstall it. Netflix blames Samsung and Samsung blames Netflix. Its really hard to figure out how to do most normal functions and some are available at times and other times they just don't work. It's difficult to navigate through the menu setup and the remote is simply awful and makes it even more complicated. Thankfully the remote that came with my Bose system is able to control the tv and it saves a ton of frustration. Unfortunately this tv lacks ease of functionality and other functionality is either missing, incomplete, or difficult to get to work. Also I dislike being marketed within the smart tv menu. Just let me watch my tv in peace stop trying to constantly sell me something.

This is a great camera that offers a lot of customization. I currently have a canon 7d, 70d, and 5dmkii and overall I am very impressed with this camera. There is only one glaring issues I have had with it is the auto focus. I actually took the first one back because I thought it was defective. The autofocus system is very fast, that is after you are actually able to get it setup perfectly. It is also extremely finicky, Of all the cameras I have used this has been the most difficult one to get results with. Once you get it set right the results are incredible but it can be an extremely frustrating road to that point. If you can find the Sony a77ii 4d focusing book online it is helpful, you have to search as it is not readily available through Sony, strange huh? Funny that they had to make a separate book just for this and after reading tons of reviews I can see the trend that this is a very common compliant with this camera. Once you get that nailed down though like I said incredible results.

Purchased this camera after reading many positive. reviews and it definitely lived up to them. The speed and quality of the camera were great. Unfortunately it did not completely meet our needs. Being in professional video and film I was looking for a camera I could use but my wife who isn't as experienced could also use. This camera fit her end but not mine. I was left wanting a bit more professional level features. It's a fantastic camera for the average person to just pick up and shoot with you wont be disappointed if that's what your needing. My biggest negative about this camera, and others in the sony mirrorless line if that the led screen is not fully articulating, This seems like a no brainier at this level of camera and pretty frustrating sony left that off. If I'm filming myself I can of course hook up one of my external monitors to see what I'm doing but how much easier to just flip the screen? Also since these cameras post directly to web why not have the ability to post higher quality selfies etc? I ended up returning this and purchasing the sony A77ii which is a bit more robust for my needs.

Headphones are decent quality and sound ok, average I would say. The clips that hold the earbuds in place come off very easily and get lost very easily. Mine were gone I the first couple weeks. Without them it's slightly annoying to use these. Battery life seems about average as well. All in all a decent buy for the money.
