Digital camera reviews of Sony DCR-SR85 1MP 60GB Hard Drive Handycam Camcorder with 25x Optical Zoom

Digital camera Review: Avoid Broadway Photo
Summary: 1 Stars

I cannot believe these guys. I ordered this camera, and when I would not buy the "package" with battery charger, bigger battery and filters for $650, he became very rude. I decided to at least take the larger battery, but he said no. I finally said if i can't buy the camera and a 2 hr. battery, that I would cancel the order. He said he didn't want to sell it to me. I said fine and canceled the order. One week before Christmas and they pull this stuff. I'll never ever order anything from them, you shouldn't either unless you enjoy arguing. It's a bait and switch.

Digital camera Review: Bad for Editing Movies
Summary: 2 Stars

Although this is a good price and good picture and has a large hard drive you cannot edit your movies which is why I bought the camera in the first place. Unfortunately we've had it for over a month before we discovered this. I am very disappointed.

Digital camera Review: Best camcorder
Summary: 5 Stars

This is my first camcorder and I selected this after a careful study of exisiting models across various brands like panasonic, jvc, canon. This was fitting my budget with lots of required specifications. I did go to nearest electronics shop and had a look at it before ordering it and comparing it other models. I used it extensively in my recent trip to smokies and it was fantastic. Lots of space..I need not bother about space. Four days of usage and I was hardly using 10 gb out of 60 gb. Clarity was good. Wish I could explore all the features of it. I would recommend this to any new comers into the camcorder world.

Digital camera Review: Bought again :)
Summary: 4 Stars

1. Awesome video quality and I mean awesome! No doubt there.
2. Battery charges very fast, very very fast indeed.
3. Drag - one fully charged battery only lasts for about 78 mins.
4. The lens shutter does not close automatically, causing stains.
5. Light weight, easy to carry.

Conclusion - I bought another one after using first one for 2 weeks!!

Cheers and happy recording.

Digital camera Review: Excellent Video Camera
Summary: 5 Stars

So far this camera is everything I expected it to be and more. It is very easy to operate and the picture is very good. The 60 gb provides plenty of space even at High Quality picture mode. I recommend that a larger capacity battery be purchase. Some expert reviewers have said that this camera does not have image stabilization and that is just not the case. Image stabilization works very well on this camera. The main thing I like about this camera is that I no longer need to use tapes. The software for uploading to the PC works very well. For the money, this is a very good product.
