Why This Camcorder Rocks

Such an amazing camera

Date of Review:  Jun 20, 2006
The Bottom Line: So take it from my experience and check out the Sony DCR-DVD405. Well worth the money.
Review: The first surprise is that with all it's capability and quality, this camera is still very small and lightweight. I suspect that it's use of a mini-DVD for recording helps, as they are very small, thin, and light-weight. Use of a mini-DVD in the...

Why This Camera Sucks

Date of Review:  Apr 11, 2007

4/5 stars
