Advantages: Quality is unbelievable, handling and control is amazing Disadvantages: None i have come across so far, I guess you could say cost!
...that the improvement in recent sony products has been amazing. In the past sony have just been an expensive name with inferior quality. It seems that they have stepped up to fix this problem with the latest models, and this camcorder is a fine example.

I must say that I found the colours to be far superior to others similar products I have ... ...Definition. It has a built in micro phone and the surround sound makes a delightful change from lesser models on the market. While recording you can take still shots as well and if you are not the steadiest or most confident person in the world then there is no need to worry as the Supersteady Shot takes care of that for you, so you can now impress all your friends with top quality recordings. The battery lasts about 5-6 hours. Top product. ...
