Sony DCR-TRV900 Camcorder -- Beginning to See the Light

Date of Review:  Mar 18, 2001
The Bottom Line: An expensive camera by consumer-level standards, but very high quality and packed with useful features. Another milestone on the road to widespread, affordable, broadcast-quality video movie production.
Review: When Sony gets a product right, they're often content to sit back and leave it alone. Such was the case with their very-popular DCR-VX1000 three-chip MiniDV camcorder, released in 1995 but not updated until the 2000 release of the DCR-VX2000...

Sony DCR-TRV900: Pro Picture, Pro Features, Compact Size... Awesome

Date of Review:  Feb 13, 2001
The Bottom Line: This is a 3 ccd camcorder with a gorgeous picture, medium to excellent audio, and compact and intuitive body. See if you can get your hands on one.
Review: I bought this camera almost one and a half years ago. At the time the cost was much higher than it is today. When I first started using this camcorder I was more than impressed. I have owned many cameras before (8mm, Hi8, and Digital8), but I never...
