Get them while you can
The colors are great and accurate. Digital tape makes for the best archiving, and clear as you can see on any 1080 or 4K TV. Tape is cheap and will outlast Flash memory. Over time, the cards will eventually degrade and some of the inside parts will fail. Contacts will corrode or brake, and there comes a time in the future you will get the dreaded "file error". If stored properly, digital tape will be playable for 50 years. I still have analog VHS tapes form 40 years ago that still look good. So yeah, get these digital High Def. miniDV camcorders while you can. I have 2. Also HC3 and up have a nice HDMI to easily hook up to your TV. Remember, you can always drag tape across a playback head, but if your card gets a spark from static electricity, you're SOL.The colors are great and accurate.

EXACTLY what I wanted!
So I had a kind of complicated issue at hand. I wanted to make a movie out of all our old home video tapes for my mom for Mother’s Day. We had tried years ago to send them to a business that converted tapes digitally, but they had no luck. I bought a different camcorder first but once I received it I didn’t realize our old family tapes were shot in HD so the camera gave me a “wrong format” screen. Back to square one. So, I did a little research and found the exact camcorder we had at the time, which was this bad boy! So I ordered this one right away. It was sent out right away and I even received it a day early. Everything works perfectly and I can now show my mom videos from over 10 years ago that none of us have seen since then. Thank you so much! Definitely recommend.So I had a kind of complicated issue at hand. I wanted to make a movie out of all our old home video tapes for my mom for Mother’s Day.

Absolutely excellent product!! A high point in the Sony line.
One of the best models in the Sony HD camcorder line. I love this model so much that I HAD to buy this replacement immediately after my old one, which I had had for over 5 years, decided to go for a swim off the side of my boat.. These are superb cameras, the picture quality is amazing, and I am actually glad that the audio is simple stereo, not Dolby 5.1 like some of their other cameras, which is a pain to edit. I also like being able to just take stills, even whilst filming. The still quality is only 4MP, but that's fine for most uses. I have got some really nice shots. Because I'm a backup freak and the tapes are pretty cheap, I like being able to keep all of my original DV tapes, although I also back up the original raw footage to DVD/BluRay disks :) I prefer these cameras to ...

These DV tapes hold an hour of footage which is fine with me. I also prefer this model over those with built in HDs because it is too easy to put off backing up the contents to your PC, then you could lose everything if disaster strikes and you haven't backed up the video in 6 months. I would have been VERY unhappy when I lost my other camera if I'd lost more than a few minutes of footage since I'd just changed the tape.

Sony HDR-HC3E is the european version of the hc3
Sony HDR-HC3E is the european version of the hc3. Both produce stunning HD quality, however the hc3-e is a PAL camcorder, not an NTSC camcorder. The video produced on this version cannot be played directly on US tvs. Unless you have editing software that can convert PAL to NTSC ( Widely available on line & in upscale editing programs)you should not buy this version of the hc3 unless of course you live in the UK or the continent. Both versions create fantastic video in all lighting conditions, just be aware of the compatibility issues. This unit does play NTSC mini DV tapes The HC3 is my favorite series of Sony HD 1080i camcorders because it records in the HDV high definition format & not the AVCHD format used in the newer cheap HD home movie camcorders, a format which I personally do not ...

Excelente custo & beneficio.
Esta camcorder é exelente! A qualidade da imagem chega a niveis de Broadcast, a opcao de HDMI e Firewire facilitam muito na post production. Unica desvantagem é a falta de uma entrada para microfone externo, somente atravez da sapata para flash, a inteligent hot shoe. Os acessorios sao relativamente baratos e o fato de ela ainda gravar em tape oferece a vantagem do backup automatico do material original. O mecanismo dela é robusto, as fotos gravadas no cartao também sao de otima qualidade, levando em concideracao de que ela tem "apenas" 4 mega pixel...para o uso em uma grua por exemplo, ela oferece a entrada para Lanc, voce pode controlar todas as funcoes da camera por controle remoto via cabo.Esta camcorder é exelente!
