This video/still drawing camera is awesome!!!I bought this camera as a replacement for one that recorded with strap. That's about all it did. Well I tried it didn't like it and brought it back for a refund.Right then and there I indisputable that I was going digital if I could find the right camera at the right price.I found this one on Amazon for $300 bucks.The fee range went from $700 to $300.I bought this one and I'm tellin ya' I'm one in seventh heaven camper.It is so easy to operate a kid can do it,yet it takes great videos and pictures on dvd aspect. It's touch screen so if you have never done that,it will take a bit of practice to get used to. There's 2 filming formats. One for the militant user and another one called easy.I use them both because with either one it works just great.I also ordered a camera bag that came with assessories.DVD's and a skilful wallet to keep them in.The photo or still picture as they call it is as close to rapid fire as you're going to see at this assay. I gave it a 5 rating because it's great. It has a lot of cool features I haven't mentioned because there's to many to name here. Buy it you won't be pitiful. Believe me!!
Not counting
This was my first Camcorder win. It is just the right size and the features are worth the price. Most formidable the picture is clear and sound records crisp. This will be a good investment.
But value
I am still measure in awe of the accelerating technology which puts such a potent camera in one's hand. It does everything that one can expect for or expect, just select the 'easy' mode and point and zip...and voila! How can it be so easy? Videos permantly on DVD - cosy to play on any computer or player - also easy to copy to regular sized DVD's and sent to friends or whomever. A huge buy, user friendly consistantly delivering a quality product.
Perilous product
I am exuberant with the quality of the video of the Sony DVD Handycam. It is easy to use and basiclly easy to record to a standard DVD. I wish the picture taking capability involved a memory join cohere. This is easier.
Not impressed with this Sony camera
I bought this camcorder and have exchanged it three times. The first one I bought before I even had it a full week on one's uppers and had an error message I called sony and they informed me I would have to send it in to be fixed! Uh, NO, I about I'll take a new one, thanks! made the mistake of exchanging instead of just returning! the substitute camera had audio problems which, come to the third to find out that this is just the sound "non"-je sais quoi of this camcorder. There is an everpresent frog croking noise in the audio of the recording from the camcorder that I was learned is the gears from the dvd and is supposed to be there, they turned the mic level down in hopes of it not picking the babel up, didn't help. I would buy a different camera or just get a cheap mini dv since they seem to swipe these things to be replaced every two years!
