How easy is it to zoom in/out with the Sony t300? I didnt see a button for it on cam.?

Question

Also switching to video mode to record footage, is it quick enough?

Answer 1

Zooming in and out is a snap, there is a raised tab on the upper right corner of the camera, that is if you are pointing the camera at your subject, next to the shutter button.

Switching from picture to video mode is quick and easy once you get familiar with it, the menu is intuitive and selections are done thru the touch screen. Some people may find it annoying though, whereas in some cameras you only need to flip a dial to change modes, in the T300 you have to make 2 or 3 presses on the touchscreen to do the same.
