Digital camera reviews of Sony DCR-SR82 1MP 60GB Hard Disk Drive Handycam Camcorder with 25x Optical Zoom (Handycam Station Included)
Digital camera Review: so-so
Summary: 3 Stars
I purchased this item in exchange for the sony dcr-42. I thought that the 82 would be better but actually it was not. The video images was scratchy and seemed botched at times. It would go in and out of focus causing the botched scenes. the camara part is ok. I really don't recommend it. sorry.
Digital camera Review: Outstanding camera - if it works
Summary: 3 Stars
I purchased this videocam to record the birth of my first child. Unfortunately, when it arrived I had to return it. Straight out of the box, I encountered "buffer overflow" and "data error" messages after less than 3 minutes of recording. Reformatting the harddrive did not work, and Sony customer service was less than helpful. Eventually, I managed to return the camera and secure a working model - which I have used successfully.
However, in the dark corners of my mind I will forever worry that the same errors will crop up in the replacement unit. For peace of mind, look elsewhere.

Sony DCR-SR82 1MP 60GB Hard Disk Drive Handycam Camcorder with 25x Optical Zoom (Handycam Station Included)
Pretty good camera for the price. Video quality is pretty good, but still images are not of good quality. I'm not worried about that since it's meant for recording videos, not for taking pictures. It has very good zoom.
Pros:
-Hard disk drive. Very convenient to record and transfer to computer
-Good zoom. Love the optical zoom! Nice digital zoom too, but ofcourse there will be a loss of quality in digital zoom.
-Video quality is good, works better in bright light.
-Compact, easy to handle
-Pretty good battery life
-Night vision is impressive.
Cons:
-I feel that it pixelates while panning or while capturing motion
-Absence of eye piece
Touch screen display could be pro or con depending on the user.
