Sony DCR-TRV530 Digital8 Camcorder -- Like the TRV330 with a Bigger LCD

Date of Review:  Jun 18, 2001
The Bottom Line: Moving up in the Digital8 line, this camcorder adds a larger (3.5-inch) LCD screen to the feature set, and $100 to the list price of the TRV330.
Review: As with many consumer electronics products, buying a Sony Digital8 camcorder is a "One from Column A, One from Column B" type of decision. The camcorders in the Digital8 line are physically almost identical, all being encased in the same plastic...

Sony DCR-TRV530 Digital8 Camcorder / Still Camera For Those Who Like Large LCDs

Date of Review:  Jun 10, 2001
The Bottom Line: This model is a good choice for those who want Digital8 compatibility and value and prefer large LCDs.
Review: Modern digital camcorders divide into two categories: the ones that use MiniDV tape and Digital8 ones (Hitachi has a camcorder that uses DVD-RAM, but it?s an exception rather than the rule). The Sony DCR-TRV530 is a Digital 8? camcorder with still...

Good Compromise for those who want digital quality and 8mm

Date of Review:  Aug 29, 2001
The Bottom Line: 8mm capability plus digital sound and picture and 3.5 inch screen at a reasonable price point make the 530 a great buy for the money;
Review: Sony's hybrid 8mm/digital camcorder line puzzled many experts when first released a few years ago. Why would consumers want to stick with the old 8mm format when they could simply convert to pure digital? But Sony recognized a large consumer market...
