Advantages: Easy to use - Extremely Compact - Great Picture Quality Disadvantages: We couldn't get the software to work
...We knew we wanted a Sony and this machine was right within our price range of £400. All the reviews we'd read about it were favourable, so we decided to go for it and it has proved to be a very good choice.
I will not bore you with any technical details and specifications as these can be easily found anywhere online and I would just be copying them anyway. Instead, I'd just like to share my own personal experience with this camera, hoping to help ... ...connection. We have a Sony RDR-HXD710 (one day I'll write a review on that one too!) and I can simply copy the DV tapes onto DVD discs with a touch of a button. Honestly, it could not be easier! Be aware though that the iLink cable is not supplied with this camcorder. The good news is that you can buy one for under £10 now. They do supply a CD, which is supposed to help you record onto your PC via a USB connection, but we couldn't manage to make ...

Advantages: Touch screen, Easy Disadvantages: A bit lack of quality
...it has issue that all sony cameras have - image is a bit gray. The picture is not so colorful as other manufacturer's. If you will watch your video that is captured in quiet environment, on TV you will hear camera's engine hiss. It's nothing horrible, but still unpleasant. If you will film in louder place, like city, the hiss will obscured and you will have nothing to complaint about sound. I don't recommend using night mode or infrared night light, ...
