I have bought 4 of this style of camcorder. The main reason being that they have a zero lux night vision facility which is ideal for paranormal investigation in total darkness. These camcorders are well made, easy to work and give very good results. Used models can be picked up quite cheaply. An excellent product all round and highly recommended.
As expected both now in pieces waiting further attention.

Though this DVD camcorer is a few years old it is well worth the purchase. it is both small but packed with good features. It uses the mini dvd disks and you are best to stick to the sony brand as its got some chip inside wich prefers the Sony disks to give best quality atc. also you would be best to buy one of the biger replacement batteries which give twice the charge and are very handy for keeping as a back up. Image quality is good though you might have fun with low light conditions. Like everything there are drawbacks such as it not having a built in light. however there is a night vision setting thats not too bad as long as you are close range. Very Blair witch and the dogs eyes light up! ?works on infra red beam I think. The screen is great and is touch sensitive so watch out not to get it damaged. The disks can be taken straaight out and played in most modern DVD players. it also goes into PC drive with no problem and I have been using it with Nero 9 software without any problems. Once your work is done you can format the mini DVD and off you go. its small size makes it dead easy to carry around and I fitted mine into a standard camera case with strap for going on holiday. The optical zoom is great but the digital zoom gets a bit odd when you start taking shots at extreme distance. No problem there as its about 400x magnification so you are bound to get picture degradation and a bit of wobble. The picture stabilisation on optical zoom is fantastic. Standard hand shake is almost gone with this and you really have to shake it about to get the auot focus upset. For a handy sized DVD camcorder which is now available qutie cheap on Ebay etc it is well worht the money. Yes there are better models out there but you will pay lots for them. All in all I am very happy with this little Sony and hope to be able to use it for a long time to come. Look after it and it will give you good service and hours of footage for when you are old and crumbly and can't remember what the hell you were doing when you took the origional shots.Read full review

I previously owned a small camcorder operated by batteries. It was ok but far from perfect. I purchased the Sony handycam because it was compact and the small screen showed all the features you were filming. It is easily held and simply operated. It also shows battery power left. The seller also supplied leads to show dvd on laptop or television. He also supplied several Sony DVD RW discs. I obviously was wary that I could be buying a faulty machine, but found it to be the contrary. I have no dislikes for the Sony Handycam. I can copy a disc and send it to anyone in the filming. (used at birthday party for 100 year old aunt) Although there are many more modern camcorders I find this machine perfectly adequate. K
This camcorder is brilliant, easy to use takes great video and could play it back on my dvd player straight away. You can even video in the dark perfect for filming my daughters dancing at a party when lighting not great. Small compact size and light, all buttons within easy reach. Great value for money cannot say enough about this camcorder. Didn't get instructions but found it pretty straight forward to use.
i love about this camcorder is that you record straight onto dvd as well as before i hat to copy the tapes to dvd
