Cracking camera, no tapes, no fuss (Sony Handycam DCR SR75)
Member Name: thejazzyj
Advantages: Great quality video, ease of use, chic design Disadvantages: Sound sometimes not perfect, longer battery would be great! I purchased one of these beauties for use at work, since then itr has found it's way home and gets used for all sorts. I was unsure of whether to go for a hard drive camcorder or stick to tapes but I found this available for a shade under £260 and decided to go for it. I think it was a great choice, this camera is so user friendly. The manual that comes with it is comprehensive and has always answered any little issues I have found. Battery life is about 90 mins of recording time which I think is pretty decent. The hard drive is huge, 60 Gb is going to last me a long time. i filmed an entire rugby match which consumed a mere 3Gb of space! The supplied software is good and synchronises my files with my laptop and also handles DVD making which is a nice touch. the zoom is impressive with 25x capabilities, admittedly at this length you really need a tripod for stability. It is quick to startup and also has a good still picture feature. The night vision works well and I have used to shoot wwildlife at night with good results. It is a comfortable camera to hold and the hand strap keeps it secure, even with gloves on. Overall an excellent buy. Summary: Delivers at every level, night vision is also useful!
