    3 out of 5 stars looks good on tv but not on the computer   June 18, 2010
    S. L. Curwin (Calgary, AB)
    i thought this camera was fantastic when i was making a video for my brother. easy to use, small, pretty simple to figure out with a little exploring the options on the camcorder. i would take a peek at the portions i had recorded every little while on the tv, and they looked like a normal home video and sound was good. i was satisfied enough with the quality on the tv expecting it to look the same on the computer. but when i transfered videos to the computer to edit and make the movie out of them, everything looked poor quality and grainy. now, i do have a high def screen on my computer, so i tried my laptop (which is just a regular old good qulity 3 years ago), and had the same results.

    so overall, i was 150% satisfied untill i saw the end computer result. and where are you going to store all your old videos but on the computer? so if anyone has a fix for this problem, i'd LOVE to know! it would save me a LOT of time and effort and it would bring my review way up again.



    1 out of 5 stars Worst video quality I have ever seen on a camcorder.   June 6, 2010
    Ann Hunter (Tallahassee, Florida)
    One of the worst camcorders Ive ever seen. This just isn't good enough to match some of the better standard def camcorders like from Canon, and certanly is NO competition compared to the really good high def cams out today. This camera's video quality is probably the worst i've ever seen on a standard def cam. The only clear and vivid thing about this camcorder are the reasons why you shouldn't get it.
    The picture is very soft and the colors are very washed-out and under saturated. It does have a 60 gig hard drive, but it's video quality isn't worth it. Even on HQ mode the quality still looks bad. One extremely bad down grade from Sony's previous DCR-SR models is a smaller CCD. Instead of the usual 1/6" CCD, Sony decides to make it smaller and change it to a 1/8" CCD. They also claim that its an "ADVANCED HAD CCD" which supposedly gets you better video quality out of smaller CCDs, but I see no difference. In low light, this thing is useless! If you go into a dim lit room the only thing you will see is pitch black and little pixels dancing around on the screen. The menus on this camera are hard to navigate through. Just to turn on one function is really a hassel. To tell you the truth, the only reason this camera sells for $250+ is because it has the name Sony on it. I messed with the camcorder's settings for three months trying to get the best video quality I could out of it, but nothing worked. After three months of disapointing video quality I finally returned it. Im never buying a Sony camcorder again. This is clearly not the best camera to get.



    5 out of 5 stars Small, Light, Crystal clear image   March 23, 2010
    SSM (USA)
    This is compact enough to carry around and at the same time big enough to get a good grip.
    The 60 GB HDD is enough as I download the videos often.
    The clarity is amazing in outdoors as well as indoors and even at night.
    The only thing I do not like is, the LCD must be used all the times!
    Touch screen works well....even my 4 yr old can operate this on his own

    Zoom is excellent!
