Camcorders > without Image Stabiliser Camcorders

Advantages: Easy to use menu displayed on screen, good quality picture, has optical zoom rather than digital
Disadvantages: a bit large on size somewhat heavy, no viewing lens just a screen

This is generally a good all round camcorder I have read reviews that the LCD screen can get dirty with fingermarks etc, but that can be easily cleaned with a damp tissue, it has excellent quality of picture and colour when you view the tape back, its a good buy if you want optical zoom rather than the digital that is offerred nowadays, as optical zoom allows the zoom on the whole picture not just digital enhancement. You can also find the manual ...
...The menus are aesy to navigate through and it has quite a few photo features, i still haven't figured out how you can take still shots on it, but I was told that you could. The only downfalls I would say are the size and the fact that the battery cannot be charged unless it is in the camera and the camera is not being used, there is no seperate charger. I would recommend if you want a decent product but not if you want one of those tiny flashy camcorders ... Read review

Advantages: small compact, view screen
Disadvantages: not DV IN without an extra widget

I bought a dcr-trv10 last year, just before my 30th birthday. The main purpose was to record the celebrations. We took a trip across to Dublin for the St. Pat's festival. My stories from their can be read in another of my opinions. One of the best features of this small digital camcorder is the view screen, and this proved to be of great use on the first night. Whilst in the middle of a large crowd and not having the best view of the stage, out ...
...within a minute of starting I had about twenty people watching the screen rather than attempting to watch the stage. This happened again during the Parade on the 17th. On our return to the UK this camcorder then allowed itself to be connected direct to my PC and download the coomplete contents of the tqapes recordings. These were then edited and 'downloaded' back to VHS tape without any loss of quality. This download was only possible after the ... Read review

Advantages: Very easy to use
Disadvantages: Batteries for this camera are expensive

I have one of these camcorders at home, and being a disabled person I find it lovely to use,, and also very comfortable from the point of someone that from time to time uses a wheelchair, It handles very comfortably,, and that is the most important thing about a good camcorder or camera. And the end product is excellent. Just recently I had this camera at a Centre for people with disabilities over the festive period, and most had a go with this product ...
...Most of them wanted to take it home with them to film thier families!!!! They really loved it! I find the actual shape of the camera makes it very easy to handle, and comfortable to work with, especially the times I have been sat in the wheelchair. With it being almost square in design it gives me something comfortable to grab hold of properly. The smaller slim-line camcorders I find I tend to be more prone to dropping them, as they are so finely ... Read review

Advantages: NICE PICTURE, EXCELENT OUT PUT AND COMFORTABLE TO USE.
Disadvantages: LOW BATTERY LIFE.

...reduced fingerprints LCD screen produces sharp pictures and it is quite user friendly on screen display. Two fade modes are also made available together with the normal fade mode. In the case of additional features, it has clock timer, title generation and on the other hand digital image sterilization so what do you really think of this camcorder. It has a display format of LCD display –TFT active matrix-3”- colour and with 89,856 pixels. FEATURES. ...
...The sharp camcorder has dodgy menu buttons but with excellent out put and packed with features. This is capable of zooming as far as you can think of and the most advanced of all is that it has automatic zoom adjustments. My thought. The camcorder is capable of easy shooting in various lighting condition and this means that it can still adjust in various lighting conditions whether lighter or darker and still produce good quality video image. ...

Advantages: Handy model & takes less space to keep on the Desktop
Disadvantages: Service is not assured & Model is not applicable for all OS level

Hi All, I have purchased this model for my internet webcam purpose. I found, it's many features are not at all working in reality. See, I had attached it with my laptop, as it was said simple and plug & play mode only. But, it was not working. Amazing, I called a service provider, and he said, it's not for all OS level. Means, it's not at all suitable for WIN XP system. After doing a lot, I ultimately reinstalled my OS (changed from Win - XP to backword ...
...resolution was not that much professional as said into operation manuals. This model is not very much lucrative at all as it was marketed with a great manner. The fingure tips of the switchs are also not very much soft tip. Too much fingure tip pressure is required. Again, I had enough experience about this. after complaining it's authorised service provider, I received a call saying that, they already stopped providing service for this model. Because, ...
