TestSeek's Expert Reviews Summary   

This camcorder is marked for its superior video recording ability along with a 120 GB hard drive that provides sufficient room for storing the captured videos or stills. The gadget is designed well and has a pleasing appearance. Though pretty heavy, the camcorder can be easily handled and the weight reduces shakes. Built in gun metal and in black colour, the camcorder looks very attractive and is durable.

Editors really appreciated the superior technical advancements brought about. Various quality assessment tests proved its capabilities.With the launch of this device in April 2008 that outstands in various criteria’s, Sony has established itself as the leader in camcorder industry.

The camcorder features a 12x optical zoom. The menu keys are arranged well to ensure easy use of them. The richly featured device is not cheap in terms of both price and quality.

This model targets the upper section of consumer market. The 120 GB hard drive is sufficient enough to store high resolution video recorded for about 15 hours. The Velcro strap ensures the grip and can be easily held out for videography. The touch screen is quite good in sensitivity and offers easy switching between menus. The 3.2-inch 16:9 LCD display is another prominent attractive feature. The colour rendering feature of the device is accurate as to provide vibrant lively displays.
