Sony DCR-DVD7 Caméscope DVD

Pros: Size, quality, and ease of use.

Cons: Recording time

The Bottom Line: I would recommend this to families that are looking for a lightweight camcorder and camera in one.

Review: I purchased this camcorder about one year ago and love it so far. It is extremely compact and lightweight, it weighs about the same as a full size digital camera. I decided on the Sony because I have had a Sony Hi-8 for many years and have never had ...

Pros: Great form factor -- small, light, easy to use. LCD Display Only

Cons: LCD Display only. DVDs are expensive.

Pros: size, rw capbablity

Cons: only constraints like any other dvd camcorder

Review: I recently purchased this machine on Ebay for about $250.00 I can say after a week of using it that I love it. It is so small and convienent. It burns to DVD-r or -rw +rw It will play immediately on your dvd player and you dont have to only ...

Cons: video shakey, horrible video dark or underlight environ, photo capability is lame,comp software is buggy

Review: Went to Italy for holiday and dvd camcorder was a must. The wife wanted video instead of pictures this time and I wanted to go w/ the latest cam tech. DVD cams are good (except the DVD-ROM only style) in the fact that you can burn a video to the mini ...
