 SONY HDR-HC9 IS REALLY GREAT March 2, 2010
S. E. MILLER (OLNEY , MD)
I been looking for a camcorder for 5 months and I did lots of research in that time, I was in favor of a Canon at first ( S D ). As I read more reviews then you can imagine the cons of low light recording and the noise of the unit( mini-tape ) was a major concern.
I found a web sight that had a video which a man explain everything you need to know about formats & media plus editting on a computer, for me a novice it was invaluable. I went for the Sony HDR-HC9 over a Canon that was similar and cost much less and I'am happy with my decision. The Sony ( H D )is super and I only did a sample recording in the house with only light from the outside and it was very good and the touch screen is nice for rewinding the tape to view what you just shot. Highly recommend this camcored.Amazon is great place to buy anything if you like the price. Stanley of Olney, Maryland ( 5 STARS not the 3 shown )

Specs Correction USB1.1 Not 2.0 November 24, 2009

I'm on the verge of buying this camcorder after much research. It has most of the same features of my superb 10-year old Sony DCR-TRV10 mini-DV digital camcorder, with the addition of USB connectivity - but note that I've posted to Amazon two links to specs for this item (one directly from Sony Style) that state it's USB 1.1 not 2.0. Hardly a show-stopper but not irrelevant. (Go to [...], type in the camcorder ID in the upper-right search bar, ENTER, click the picture link that appears, ignore the No Longer Available and click the QuickView to see the full spec list).
Good Camera ... but where's the cinema mode ? October 8, 2009

I just got this camera yesterday, and I love the image quality, but I'm extremely disappointed that this does not have an inbuilt cinema mode as advertised. Canon vixia hv40 has cinema mode mentioned in the user manual, but the Sony hdr-hc9 has something about a cinematic effect. Does this work ? Does it really record in 24p, if not, does anyone know how to get that cinema effect ? Please help. If its not possible, I wonder why I did not buy the canon Vixia hv40.
I love these Sony cameras July 10, 2009

I have owned a HDR HC1, HC3 and now this camera. They have served me well. My HC3 has taken over a thousand hours of video. I use it for semiprofessional shoot at ballet performances (HD) on a tripod with three other cameras. I drag them with me when I am snowboarding, hiking or traveling in Europe. My cameras are dented and dirty but the video they shoot is still stunning. I still like archiving to tape.
