Digital camera reviews of Sony DCR-SX40 Palm-Sized camcorder with 60X Optical Zoom (Silver)
Digital camera Review: Best Little Camcorder~
Summary: 5 Stars
Written by my daughter, whom received this camera for Christmas~
This is the best video camera I have ever handled. I was a little disappointed by its small size. It literally fits in a -largish - pocket, or your palm! But, when I began taking videos, this little camcorder spoke for itself. From about 50 feet away, I could zoom all the way up to the glass decorations on my door, and it was like I was standing right there. One of my favorite parts when I was taking videos for this Christmas was the zoom-microphone! I thought it was such a neat idea, and it really works! The only cons I have to say about it is that there is no pause button (you just stop the video, but it doesn't really matter..) and the pictures (not the video) are a little poor, but tolerable. You can see the pixels, but it still takes cute pictures anyway :) Everything looks very realistic. When you're taking a video, it's hard to notice any shaking at all unless you zoom up very far. I can't wait to make more videos as time goes on~ If you're considering this as a gift, get it! It's highly worth the money, and very easy to use!
