Sony DCR-TRV460 Handycam - Good Inexpensive Digital8 Digital Camcorder

Date of Review:  Dec 14, 2004
The Bottom Line: Inexpensive and capable, the Sony DCR-TRV460 is a good choice for somebody who wants a camcorder that can play 8mm/Hi8 tapes...
Review: If you want a digital camcorder that can play your old 8mm or Hi8 tapes as well as record in digital format and cost less than many MiniDV camcorders, the Sony DCR-TRV460 is the ticket.

The TRV460 uses Digital8 format - it records on a Hi8...

Sony TRV-460 Delivers More for Less

Date of Review:  Jul 19, 2005
The Bottom Line: For families who want a low-cost, no-brainer with great quality, for people who seek good solid mature technology, over bleeding-edge technology. Not for those where size matters.
Review: Now that I am on my 5th digital camcorder, and 4th digital camera, I have some standards to weigh against. Admittedly this is a biased review because 3 of my last 5 camcorders were Sonys, including this one.

What's in the box: The usual...

Economic, feature-rich, but flawed - compared with old entry level Sony camcorder

Date of Review:  Dec 6, 2004
The Bottom Line: Buy for price, not for versatility. If you do lots of long shootings on tripod or under tricky conditions requiring manual exposure/focus, avoid it. Beware of quality issues.
Review: [Broken in 2 years - See latest upgrade at bottom]

I'm upgrading from my (really) old CCD-TR818, Sony's entry level Hi8 camcorder. So Hi8 playback is important. (Was looking at TRV260, which doesn't read Hi8 - and the price difference is...
