Sony DCM-M1 Discam

Date of Review:  Mar 16, 2002
The Bottom Line: This camera is not for everyone but short clips it's great, in camera editing is king and stills are fun. I paid $500 US on ebay and it's worth it.
Review: With the huge volume of digital video cameras out there today is is hard to choose one perfect for yourself. The Sony DCM-M1 Discam takes a slightly different approach by saving all information to MD Data2 discs.
