Remote control for Sony DCR-TRV255 E camcorder?

Question

Does anyone know if this Handycam can support a remote commander?

I´ve seen reviews saying YES, but I can´t find which model fits the camera.

Should anyone who owns it or who is sure, please let me know it. Thanks.

Answer 1

I went to the support area of Sony.com and did a search using "DCR-TRV255". Apparently, in North America there is no such model - and I didn't got to Sony International... but there is a DCR-TRV250...

Anyway, the reason to do this is to download the manual.

Refer to page 9... Sony, as with most other manufacturers, has the things included in the box in the first part of the manual.

If you need a replacement, Sony would be a likely source for a Sony remote for a Sony camcorder.

This page shows two part numbers RMT-814 and RMT-708... so go here and order one:

From what I can find - with little effort), is the RMT-708 is part number 146757423 for about $25.

If you go to the sony support site there will be a link to buy accessories for your model. If not try eBay!!
