5 out of 5 stars Excellent.......2007-03-08

This was my first Camcorder purchase. It is just the right size and the features are worth the price. Most important the picture is clear and sound records crisp. This will be a good investment.

5 out of 5 stars Excellent value.......2007-02-01

I am still somewhat in awe of the accelerating technology which puts such a potent camera in one's hand. It does everything that one can hope for or expect, just select the 'easy' mode and point and shoot...and voila! How can it be so easy? Videos permantly on DVD - easy to play on any computer or player - also easy to copy to regular sized DVD's and sent to friends or whomever. A great buy, user friendly consistantly delivering a quality product.

4 out of 5 stars Nice product.......2007-01-10

I am happy with the quality of the video of the Sony DVD Handycam. It is easy to use and basiclly easy to record to a regular DVD. I wish the picture taking capability involved a memory stick. This is easier.

2 out of 5 stars Not impressed with this Sony camera.......2007-01-03

I bought this camcorder and have exchanged it three times. The first one I bought before I even had it a full week broke and had an error message I called sony and they informed me I would have to send it in to be fixed! Uh, NO, I think I'll take a new one, thanks! made the mistake of exchanging instead of just returning! the second camera had audio problems which, come to the third to find out that this is just the sound "non"-quality of this camcorder. There is an everpresent frog croking noise in the audio of the recording from the camcorder that I was informed is the gears from the dvd and is supposed to be there, they turned the mic level down in hopes of it not picking the noise up, didn't help. I would buy a different camera or just get a cheap mini dv since they seem to make these things to be replaced every two years!

5 out of 5 stars Handycam is very Handy.......2006-11-12

First of all, I am not a expert when it comes to camcorders. I am a mom with two adorable children that I chase after 24-7. In my opinion this is a wonderful camcorder for the price. I recently bought it to replace a Samsung that was dropped and broken. I did a lot of research on Camcorders before choosing this one and one thing I learned is that most of the bad reviews given to lower model cameras come from people who are what I call ametuer professionals, who should be looking at buying more expensive cameras than this one. Anyway, things I like about this camera include has easy it is to transfer it to regular 8 inch dvd. Just pop it into your computer and use the nero software. Second I love that it takes snapshots. Sure with this model they are only 1 mega pixel but most of us have another camera for taking pictures with anyway. If you want one to do both I would highly reccomend the Sony 405 that takes 4 mega pixel pictures. I also love the optical zoom, although I do wish it would zoom further. All in all this camera is an excellent choice for busy parents who are not trying to make motion picture films. A really great and handy camcorder.

      Product Description

      An essential tool for extreme sports and dramatic action shooters. The .43x Super Fisheye Adapter offers an extreme fisheye effect and a high degree of barrel distortion. It exaggerates depth by pulling nearby objects closer and causing distant objects to recede into the background. Advances in high-index / low-dispersion optical glasses, new barrel materials, and exotic anti-reflection coatings, along with the latest in computer-aided-design / computer-aided-manufacturing, are combined to produce lenses of unprecedented quality. Diamond-cut from crystal-clear, water-white optical glass, Opteka lenses are ground and polished to a precise precision. Because all Opteka lenses are designed and manufactured with the highest possible degree of consistency, you can swap lenses mid-shoot with no discernable variation in color or effect. The unprecedented purity, color saturation and repeatability of Opteka lenses virtually eliminate the need for lab color timing corrections caused by other lenses. This puts more creative control where it belongs - in your hands. Opteka lenses stand up to the most rigorous demands on the stage and on location. Opteka's hard anti-reflective (AR) coating offers protection specially formulated to resist flaking, peeling and scratching. This proprietary AR coating also reduces light loss and flare to less than 1% per surface, compared to untreated glass which has a light loss of 4% per surface. Opteka lenses allow you to shoot with total confidence!
