Best yet camcorder--excellent hard drive, zoom and pc transfer...and compact...only setback...low pixel on still pics. However, still a great buy!Digital camera Review: DCR-SR45
Summary: 5 Stars
I was looking for a inexpensive camcorder with Night shot and stablization for our Paranormal investigation group. I also wanted a hard drive so we wouldn't have to change DVD's or tapes every hour. I found this display model SR45 for a little more then $200.00. I was really pleasently surprised by what I got.
I found that I could record on HQ for almost 6 hours and on standard for over 10 hours. The night vision was perfect, and the cameras internal Mic picked up sound just as well as out top of the line olympus DVR. The FH100 battey powers the camera for 5 hours(battery was extra) When you attach the camera to a wall plug in, on a tripod, and with a large IR emitter you get the best night shot video I've ever seen. Later we transferred all the video's to a DVD via a DVD burner....the group was very impressed. For an older model Camcorder we couldn't have found anything better at 4 times the price.
Its light , easy to handle, instructions are simple, easy to transferr videos, and you can also do videos or stills on the memorie card.
If your looking for a low budger Video camera we recomend the SR45
Digital camera Review: DCR-SR45 camcorded
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great camcorder. Easy to use with touch screen. the clearity of picture is fantastic, even at full zoom. A tripod should be used for this purpose. By using a svga adapter I am able to transfer execellent digital picture dirrectly to dvd via dvd recorder. If you don't have a lot of money to spend and want quality video this is the camcorder for you. Would suggest you purchase an additional battery.Digital camera Review: Decent, but not as good as expected
Summary: 4 Stars
After much research trying to decide between this one (the price/value performer) and spending about $350 more on the JVC Everio (HiDef), I chose this one for the price and for the user-friendly touch screen panel. I haven't purchased a video camera in over 6 yrs.
I've only had it for a couple days, but the picture quality is not as sharp as I expected indoors. I trust it looks fine outside. I shot videoclips of my 1-year old in the living room at 5 pm, and much to my dismay, it was a bit grainy and dim (not extremely, but more than I'd like). The optical zoom however is excellent.
I did some more research but after seeing the others in the price range, i know i got the most bang for my buck. I'm almost thinking about shelling out another $300 to get a Hi-Def to hopefully get better quality res. on my HD TV screen when I'm watching our clips. I guess you get spoiled if you're a flat screen HDTV watcher!
Digital camera Review: Easy to use
Summary: 4 Stars
The camcorder is easy to use and sync with the computer. Picture quality is good. Compact size is very convenient. The only complaint I have is that there is no flash.
