The other three AVCHD recording modes record at 1,440x1,080 resolution, like last year's models.

In a most welcome step up from last year's SR7, the SR11, and SR12 offer full 1,920x1080 HD capture, thanks to its maximum 16-megabit-per-second AVCHD recording mode. An Active Interface Shoe (Sony's proprietary hot shoe) sits atop the camcorder so you can add one of Sony's microphones or video lights. I was worried that the headphone or mic-in jacks might not have enough room, but after trying several headphones with various size connectors, I was impressed that all fit amply. The doors are plastic and have nifty hinges and slides to get them out of the way while using the jacks. I did like the doors that cover the various connectors though. With a camcorder this size, Sony could have found room for a full-size connector.
The mini cables are harder to find and more expensive. My other main gripe about the body design is that Sony used a mini HDMI connector (Type C) instead of a normal-size connector. True, it's the only dial on the camcorder, but if you're going to label it the CAM CTL on the body, you should be consistent in the menu. Sony didn't call the menu item CAM CTL, instead it called it Dial Setting.
This wouldn't be the end of the world, but you have to dig pretty deep into the menu to assign something to the wheel.

It has a button on the front of it that lets you activate manual focus, exposure compensation, white balance shift, or shutter speed, though you can only assign one such function to the wheel at any given time. Just above that button is the CAM CTL dial. Thankfully, Sony included a small button up front, below the lens, for backlight compensation, so you won't have to hit the menus for that. The fingerprints can be distracting when recording, and if you try to change a setting while shooting, you'll likely end up jostling the camcorder while you make the change. The large size of the screen helps a bit compared with some other Sony models, but the screen is still fingerprint prone. Sony placed the controls well, however, you will have to use the 3.2-inch touch screen to get to some important functions, which can be an annoying way to use a camcorder. Plus, that drive gives you a nice grip, while some flash camcorders have awkwardly designed grips. It's about the same size as a miniDV camcorder, thanks to its hard drive. That body design is quite nice, though it does have some quirks and comes across as chunky compared with most flash-based models.
