I glad that I'd purchase this HD video camera for my vacation trip & the photos you see are at the dead sea & over looking Nazareth in Israel or course & I'm look forward to using it again for the next event. Works well in low light.

Light weight, projector a plus & editing software excellent

input/output for headset

This was a great investment. Excellent quality for the price. I bought an extra battery so I wouldn't run out. This is simple to use once you get the hang of it. And even this gramma could figure it out without any help. You won't go wrong with this camcorder.

love the quality of the video and the projection capability

figuring out how to use the various features was a little inconvenient

HELLO MY NAME IS MR LEROY LAPOINTE AND IM FROM LORNE NEW BRUNSWICK, IM CONCERNING ABOUT THIS CAMERA HERE ACCORDING TO ALL THE FEATURES AND THE FULL 1080P WELL ITS ALL TRUE I USE A 16 GB DANE-ELEC 200X CLASS 10 SDHC MEMORY CARD, NOW WHEN YOU DO VIDEO WITH THIS YOU GET CLOSE TO 7 HOURS OF RECORDING IN

THE BEST COMPACT VIDEO CAMERA

WORTH WHILE THE PURCHASE

When my previous camcorder was stolen (a Sony Handycam) my insurance replaced it with this amazing l

Light weight and easy to hold; Built-in projector.

No built in hard drive; No night shot feature like previous Sony camcorders

I like so small and light. I chose this product for the projector that has surprised me much on purpose as it is very good the image projected. I recommend the camcorder for your projector which is very good.

Because its sony and nnd built in projector.General think is good.Just i dont like the memory card cover..Its looks like so weak and can be damage easier.

This camera is packed with great features. Took the camera to a concert and the sound and picture quaility is great. Even in low light it recorded and took still photos without skipping on any good shots. The last camcorder we purchased was in 1995 so I'm having to get used to this compact camera.

Good quality HD camcorder, its very handy with projection capability, very small and ease of use.

Only major problem it has with zoom in and out motor that makes noise to the video.

Comfortable to Operate; Great Picture Quality; Projection; Simple Controls; Versatile
