taking out the sd card to transfer is both safer and faster.

you never unplug your shit during a transfer. that's your own stupid fault. its not the camcorder, it's your stupid ass thinking things work a certain way when they don't. next you're gonna say you've done it tons of times before and then i'll tell you that all the times you've done it you haven't unplugged your media halfway into a transfer. chances are if it froze, its either:
A) the cable you used to plug your camcorder to the computer
B) it was not tightly secured on either end
C) the hardware on either device was damaged due to any number of reasons which caused a jerk in the connectivity which threw the file transfer into that frozen state. if you wanna do video don't listen to all the fags that are gonna recommend sony alpha whatever the fuck stills cameras that have 4k eat my ass resolution. no one gives a fuck about that. get yourself a panasonic hc-w580. look up reviews or whatever. for the price, it is amazing and you won't be disappointed. it has an SD card slot so you won't have to use a cable for file transfer and eliminate another disaster from happening.

Yes, well I've learned that the hard way. I'll never, ever use internal memory on a device again.

No, I've never done it before. I don't understand what the advantage of MTP is over mass storage and why companies would use it. Is it just a Sony thing or what? Why can't I unplug during transfer? And I'm guessing there is no way to retrieve the files? None of the programs I've used seem to be able to view MTP based storage.

Well, I've tried virtually every file recovery program under the sun with no luck. MTP is a fucking joke.
