Sony Digtial 8 DCR-TRV250 - A Good Beginner Camcorder

Date of Review:  Jan 29, 2004
The Bottom Line: This camcorder gives you good quality video and sound, as well as easy to use features. You can't beat the Price of this entry digital camcorder. RATED 3.5 STARS
Review: I currently own 2 camcorders, a Sony DCR-TRV38 MiniDV camcorder and a Sony DSR-PD170 professional camcorder. I do not own a DCR-TRV250, however, I am currently in Grade 12 and am taking quite a few art/media/advertising courses and have used the...

Surprisingly good

Date of Review:  Jul 29, 2004
The Bottom Line: Perfect for beginners or people who don't necessarily look for the latest model around.
Review: I bought this camera because of its price and of features. Given my experience with digital photo cameras, the fancier and smaller it gets, the more drawbacks it has. Did you know that the real world difference between a 540 k pixels (like this one)...
