Model overview based on user reviews  
The Sony NEX-VG900 is a compact, full-frame camcorder that offers the advantage of interchangeable optics, allowing the use of any full-frame lens. It features a high-resolution CMOS sensor with 24.3 megapixels, although some users suggest that a lower megapixel count could enhance performance by improving aperture ratio and reducing moiré and aliasing. The camcorder is designed to function as a full-fledged photo camera, marking a new era in photography. However, proper autofocus is primarily achievable with native lenses, which can be expensive. The grip may be uncomfortable, especially with large telephoto lenses, so using a rig or chest support is recommended. Overall, the Sony NEX-VG900 is a good model that has impressed users with its capabilities.
Pros

Cons

good model, I liked it
29 November 2016 
The grip, of course, is not comfortable. Especially when using a large telephoto lens. It is advisable to use a rig or chest support.
Compact, full-frame, interchangeable optics.
1) Multipixel photosensor. If it were made to 2.1 MP, everything would immediately come alive: the aperture ratio would increase, moiré would disappear, aliasing would be reduced, and detail would improve.
2) Proper autofocus is only possible with native lenses, which are very expensive.

The sensor is FF, and the video camera was specifically designed as a full-fledged photo camera.
The ability to use any FF lens immediately catches your eye.
