There are better Cameras out there (DCR-TRV 820 is better)
, Dec. 30, 2002

While many people think this is a nice camcorder, there are better one's out there for cheaper. It has a small zoom, no night shot, and several other features that many people deem necessary. The smallness on the camcorder can be good or bad. Ypur choi

very nice camera with bells and whistles

This camcorder is lightweight and easy to use. The only problem is that it needs a cable to connect to PC to download images. Other than that, the battery power is great, and the images clear.
