Product Description
Who says you can't afford digital? Sony's DCR-TRV260 Digital8 Handycam camcorder gives you digital recording at an analog price. It features a huge 20X optical zoom lens, a big 2.5" SwivelScreen LCD display and the NightShot Plus zero-light recording system, all in a stylish, ultra-compact design. It even includes USB streaming capabilities, which transforms your camcorder into a webcam. Best of all, it records digitally on inexpensive 8mm and Hi8 video tapes, making it the perfect camcorder for anyone stepping up from analog.

1 out of 5 stars BUZZING SOUND   October 9, 2005
 2 out of 11 found this review helpful

When I tried this out there was a buzzing sound that was picked up by the microphone and therefore it would not playback withou a buzzing sound. I sent it off to Sony, as you said it had a 90 day warranty for labor and a one year warranty for parts. I need a copy of your original invoice when you purchased this to send them or the cost to fix it is $269.00.

1 out of 5 stars Don't Buy a Sony product   February 16, 2005
 8 out of 29 found this review helpful

The camcorder was purchased as a Christmas present. We took it on a cruise in early January. After only a few days it gave us a moisture message and stopped working. Sony claims we dropped it in water and wants over three times what we paid for the camera to repair it. We did not drop the camera in the water, we do not have films of our vacation. We are just out our recorded memories and $300. We will never recommend a Sony product to anyone.


4 out of 5 stars Great camcorder for the price.   December 24, 2004

This camcorder is a great deal for the price. It has excellent night shot capabilities as well as a built in light that works great outdoors. It's lightweight and fits nicely in the palm of your hand. Great buy!


5 out of 5 stars Web Cam Review   December 6, 2004
 11 out of 17 found this review helpful

I bought this to use solely as a web cam and that's all this review pertains to.

It works perfectly. You can use it with yahoo messenger or anywabcam.com, etc. It's exactly what I wanted.

One thing though - some messenger programs, while they work with the camera, don't allow you to change the contrast and brightness settings from within their program.

If you have any issues setting it up as a webcam you can e-mail me at nick.staff@comcast.net.
