  • Very first HD camera from Sony but still amazing in 2018

    Having used video cameras for many years I remember when these came out new, I was in my teenage years and could never afford one of these beasts! Now in 2018 when people just don't have the time to copy tapes to computers as in a work environment you can't be waiting an hour to copy tapes over to your computer these are so well priced! I have this one and the Z1 and both cost me £400 or just under... So happy to own it! :)

  • SOny HDR-FX1E Camcorder

    Excellent camera, supplied with 3 large capacity batteries and 1 small battery. I use mini DV tapes mainly and this camera will greatly improve my ability to edit my video collection. Camera is old fashioned but gives excellent results
