Question

I want to buy a sony digital camcorder with at least 60 GB hard disk drive.Which modl do you prefer and why?

Answer 1

buy this one Sony 60GB Handycam Hybrid Camcorder

SON  DCRSR85 from circuitcity wonder full great deal hope it will satisfy your desire

Answer 2

That  is a lot of camera, but keep it in mind 60 gb is one heck of lot of memory, you can have to much memory to download when your trying to make a great movie but it is confusing to the newbies,

You can save yourself a ton on money, and a lot less c**p to carry around by looking a the Canon hdd x1 sd  card, all you need is a 4 gig card and your on your way. if you go to Steves camcorder review it will give you all the answerer's you can have when considering a camera i have a canon x1 it  fits in my pocket and it takes pictures outside like a pro, because it is so small remember to consider buying a hi speeds sd card anything less is garbage and only a ton of trouble. check\ with www.Steve's camcorder review you wont be sorry.

Answer 3

Sony DCR-DVD108 DVD Handycam Camcorder, Sony HDR-FX1 3-CCD HDV High Definition are very good.

Answer 4

I prefer miniDV tape based camcorders.

1) MiniDV tape stores in DV format (HDV if hidef video). This is nowhere near the compression internal hard drive based camcorders use. Digital video compression = lost data = reduced quality.

2) When you fill the miniDV tape, pop it out, lock it, put in another tape (ALWAYS carry extras). Keep doing this until you run out of power. Hard drive based camcorder - fill the hard drive - then???

3) With MiniDV tape, the tape you shot is the archive. With hard drive based camcorders, there is an extra step to copy the files to another hard drive or burn discs.

4) With miniDV tape, I can still use a hard drive - though it will be external...

... and it saves to DV or HDV format... not the highly compressed video of the internal camcorders.

5) If I drop and break a miniDV tape camcorder, I can get the tape out and use another camera. If I drop and break an internal hard drive camcorder, the video in the camcorder will be a challenge to get - I'd better set up an account with http://www.drivesavers.com or kiss that video goodbye.

so... If it HAS to be Sony, the HDR-HC9 (low end), or HDR-FX7 or HVR-V1U. High def and standard def, external mic jack, manual audio control, uses miniDV tape (or can use external hard drive as needed).

Answer 5

i think that it would be a better idea to buy Canon hg10 camcorder
