First consumer HD camcorder

Date of Review:  Sep 17, 2005
The Bottom Line: If there are important memories that you want recorded in the best possible quality, this camera is for you.
Review: This camera is really your only option right now for consumer HD video recording. The price is fairly steep due to the lack of competition, but it isn't unreasonable. The camcorder records video in 1080i HDV format on regular miniDV cassettes.

Hi Def Camcorder

Date of Review:  Aug 8, 2005
The Bottom Line: If you can afford this camcorder, then buy it!!
Review: Just purchased this camcorder from Best Buy on 8-6-05. It is the best camcorder on the market. I have owned three other Sony camcorders; this one is worth the investment. When I hook up the camcorder to my hi def Sony TV the results are awesome. I...

The Bottom Line: but this camera because its nice
Review: I just bought one yesterday and I am impressed. But, I am not an expert on video. The image quality is good. I am extremely impressed by the SUPER EASY operating system, which I learned through experimenting for a few minutes. I put in a tape and...

MiniHDV Marvel

Date of Review:  Nov 7, 2005
The Bottom Line: A great cam, at a good price, cheapest route to HDV, but some silly minor flaws
Review: INTRODUCTION

It's worth pointing out how small the HC1 is, I would...

A must-have toy if you have a HD tv set

Date of Review:  Sep 5, 2005
Review: I am very impressed with this camcorder. It does not come cheap, but it is very, very nice considering how new this technology is. I cannot imagine why one would buy a camcorder these days if it is not a HD? What exactly is new in comparison to your...
