 ... the tape to PC. You need firewire card and cable to transfer video to PC. Software which comes with camera is great and will keep your videos organized in calendar or file view. Picture quality is very good for such a cheap and simple camera. Replacment batteries are expensive as Sony did something that only their original baterries work. There is a workaround and some manufacturers produce baterries that work with Sony - take a look at eBay. Probably not for professionals but for home video users great buy....more

Software which comes with camera is ...  Read the complete review

Express Review on Sony Handycam DCR-HC37E

NICE ITEM, EASY TO USE AFTER A WHILE. ALTHOUGH IT HAS A USB PORT YOU HAVE TO USE A FIREWIRE TO CONNECT TO YOUR PC IF YOU WANT TO DOWNLOAD FROM THE CAMCORDER. NIGHT SHOOTING MODE IS A GREAT IDEA ALSO.
WISHED IT CAME WITH A CAMERA BAG AS THEY ARE NOT THAT CHEAP TO BUY EVEN ON THE WEB.

I had been filming my son growing up on an old camcorder handed down to me from my mum and dad but as I had a few pounds given to me over Christmas I bought myself this Sony handycam in the January sales for what I thought to be a very reasonable £185.99, it truly is a handycam very compact and light too. At first when I got home and eagerly unwrapped it from its impressive packaging I thought to myself I will still be trying to learn how to work this next January but I was pleasantly surprised by the ease of use once you have read the very straight forward instruction manual. Although the first look at the manual will frighten you as it did me by its shear ...  Read the complete review
