About this product
Product Information
The DCR-TRV820 is Sony's top of the line Digital8 camcorder. Sony Digital8 records a digital signal onto standard 8mm or Hi8 tapes. It is possible to record up to 500 lines of resolution on a Digital8 tape. This camcorder allows you to digitally transfer your video to a computer using the FireWire standard, just like MiniDV. The camcorder comes with a 4-inch Liquid Color Display (LCD) screen and a color viewfinder. A nifty gadget that comes with the camcorder is a color printer. The camcorder has a large 25x optical zoom and a 450x digital zoom. It allows for analog input so you can transfer old VHS tapes to DV. The camcorder includes Control L, which allows usage in a standard and linear editing system. Still pictures are captured and stored on Sony's memory stick media, so you can proceed to print out those still pictures. Sony's LaserLink system uses infrared light to make a wireless connection from your camcorder to your television. This camera will provide up to 14 hours Stamina recording with optional NP-F960 battery.The TRV820 is a great and inexpensive camcorder. If you've worked with 8mm or Hi8 before and want a good Digital8 Camcorder, the TRV820 was created for you.Product Identifiers

Great camera and plays back my high 8 video perfectly

better than my old Sony
Back about 14 years ago I bought my Sony and everyone including myself loved the night view function. Because of that, I was very upset when the video heads went on mine. 5 years later I started searching for the exact model for my functions and to play our family videos. I found this model and was amazed. Before this, I never heard of a camcorder that prints pictures. Thank youVerified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
