Description
Sparing treasured moments should never cost a fortune. With the Sony CCD-TRV128 Hi8 Handycam camcorder, you get most of the squeaky-end features you would expect from a top-of-the-line camcorder, such as a 2.5" SwivelScreen LCD unfold, a huge 20X optical zoom and NightShot Plus infrared recording system, all for an unbelievably low bonus. It even includes the new Easy Handycam feature, which automates most of the camcorder's processes and makes videotaping a click.Customer Reviews
Sony CCDTRV128 Hi8 Analog HandycamI bought this camera curtly after it came out. I owned a Sony Handycam prior and had it for a long time before it died on me at least 5-6yrs. This one I in use accustomed to a little over a year,my oldest was in an auto accident life keep so I was not using it for some time come 2yrs later around Christmas I go to use it and it would not play tapes or annals. I would allow me to put the tapes in but not working so disappointed. My warranty was over by then even though it was used very scant the warranty had expired what a waist of money!
Another well made output by Sony
Well, everything considered this is a discontinued item I won't go in to great detail. Sony products may be a little more expensive than comparable items but you can always off on them to work well and this camcorder is no exception. Have owned it for 4 years with absolutely no problems and still use it.
Disapointed
Only familiar a few times before started not working. Keeps saying reinsert strap. If I take the battery off for a few minuets it works some times but never know when or for how long!
No Directions White Balance
This Camcorder is ineffective. Has alot of extras but when working on a video for my AV class I when to set up the white steady and found that it's auto. When compared to one with manual WB this camera sucks. Pictures are all several colors from blue to yellow. Manual WB is a basic standard on all camera and camcorder so why was it hand off this one? I would give or suggest this camcorder to any one, I'd look for another, just in case you plan on editing your go red don't change from shot to shot. This is a worthless camcorder.
Very Portentous
I have had this camcorder since October of '04, and I have only complained about one emotional attachment: not being able to hook it up to a computer through USB. Other than that, this is a very cool li'l camera that shoots good worth images. I shot video at a party for a music video with it once, and am currently using it to carry out a film I wrote. This is a very handy camcoreder indded, and I would recommend it to only anyone who wants to capture some fun times. I only recommend that you buy lots of tapes--it's lawful fun to waste tape on recording random crap sometimes!
