Digital camera reviews of Sony DCR-SR42 30GB Hard Disk Drive Handycam Camcorder with 40x Optical Zoom
Digital camera Review: DON'T BUY THIS IF YOU OWN A MAC !!!
Summary: 1 Stars
The enclosed software does not support Mac OS.
The only software for Mac the will work with this format is Capity Mpeg edit, a horrible program that will run you an extra $200.
The Capity package is included with the JVC HDD camera, you may want to look there.
I love SONY and the camera is nice but without the ability to put it on my computer the HDD is useless.
Digital camera Review: Great little camcorder!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is my first camcorder ever, and I love it so far. Yes, it can be a pain to have to hook it up to its docking station when you want to transfer videos to a computer, but, hey, it's not all that hard to do, and it's all very portable. I love the fact that I was able to use it "right out of the box" - and I can't wait to actually read the directions and figure out all of its other capabilities.Digital camera Review: Great little camcorder
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great camcorder. The size is perfect and its simple to use. The recording time great unlike the others that after 30 min or so you have to stop and replace the cd or tape. Its even easy to burn to a dvd with the easy one touch burn button. I would recommend this product to everyone.Digital camera Review: Good for beginners...
Summary: 4 Stars
Considering the price, function, and manipulation, it is good for beginners. But for advanced users, I would suggest higher level mini camcorder.Digital camera Review: You will need a DVD Burner!!
Summary: 4 Stars
I want to let everyone know that if you plan to make DVDs of your movies your computer needs to have a DVD Burner. It doesn't mention this in the description (nor anywhere on the Sony site)...it just says you can easily burn a DVD just by pushing a button on the Handycam Station. This is assuming you have a DVD burner in your computer. I'm having to take my computer in to have a burner installed...it will cost me about $70.
For people who aren't that computer savvy...i thought you'd like to know.
