  • My Sony Camcorder

    am happy with this camera because it has what I need. I needed a camera that takes crisp and clear video with nice vibrant color. There are limitations to the camera, such as the Sony handicaps that won't allow universalism, and the constant changing of modes when you wish to do utilize the other options. With the camera's capture capabilities, and the accessory microphone that I picked up, for me this is a great camera, and will last years in my house. I have compared this camera's video to that of DVD cameras, and I like the video capture picture of mine a lot better.

  • Handycam HC40

    I believe this camcorder is no longer in production. There are two main reasons why I purchased this unit: 1) Its compact size and 2) the "LANC" feature. So readers must take that into consideration. I needed a small enough unit so that I can carry it while doing adventure sports (snowboarding and mountain biking). The LANC feature allows me to stow the camcorder in a backpack and operate it remotely with a LANC remote cord that can be purchased separately(esentially start/stop record function). The times I've used it for this it did an awesome job! However, there are many other features I enjoy about this camcorder. The swivel LCD screen turns 360 degrees forward so that I can watch myself record of all things..myself! The digital effects like "old movie" or "slow motion" recording are ...

    +long battery life +design is excellent +picture quality is good +easy to use +easy menu -below average performance in low light -poor still picture -motor noise

  • Wanted to keep my DCR-HC40 alive a bit longer!

    This has been a great little camcorder. We bought this one to help with a problem in our original DCR-HC40. It has stopped charging the battery. Now that we have this one, It has been determined that the problem is in the camera not the battery or charger. The price and included parts make this a really good way to extend the life of a fairly dependable product from Sony. We have enjoyed the performance of this handy little device. Ebay has come through for us again!

  • sony dcr-hc40 mini dv camcorder

    I purchased this camera because I need a camera with a color viewfinder,so I can video deer in the wild. They are much more easy to find in the bush with a color viewfinder. The small size of the handycams make them very portable while outdoors. An added bonus of the 40's is the doubling of megapixels. The only regret is that the optical zoom is just 10X. I purchased my hc-40 on e-bay, used, but in excellant condition, for a very resonable price.
