The only current Handycam model is ending production; Sony says its successor is undecided

Sony’s only current Handycam model, the FDR-AX45A, has been marked as production ended due to parts constraints.

Sales will be phased out across the Sony Store and other retailers.

Sony says the Handycam brand itself is not ending, but a successor has not been decided.

The move underscores how dedicated camcorders are being overtaken by mirrorless and vlog cameras.
