febrile says "Nice picture" about Sony - Handycam HDR-SR1 Camcorder

The camera shoots excellent film and it is very easily transferred to PC for hard copy to disc. There is a lot of difficulty in keeping the native hi-def format due to file requires several DVD dsiks to record a small hi-def film. This reviewer is very eager to own a Blu-ray writer to accommodate the hi-def files in a better way while saving the hi-def memories. It is not easy to share the hi-def files via internet either due to file size and limited mediaplayer support....

mopsie says "HD quality, no more buying tapes!!!" about Sony - Handycam HDR-SR1 Camcorder

This camera is wonderful! The quality of video is second to none, and the best thing about it is that you don't need to keep buying tapes! Everything is recorded onto an internal hard disk drive (this one has a 30 gig HDD, but newer models have even bigger drives). At the highest quality HD, you can fit about 5 hours onto the hard drive. At a lower quality standard definition, you can fit over 20 hours before having to transfer everything to a computer.
The camera is a little big compared to other digital camcorders, and for someone with small hands (like myself), it can be tough to reach all the buttons and dials. The camera is also heavier than other cameras, but not so much that it affects anything.
I would definitely recommend this camera, especially since everything will be HD in the near future!
The touch screen is great, but I'm not sure how someone with really large fingers will manage. I haven't had any problems yet, though!
