Sony DCR-HC28 MiniDV Handycam Camcorder with 20x Optical Zoom Reviews
I am not that much of a snob that I need to have the DVD type. My hc21 was excellent for the video quality I took. I have a hc21 camera that my son dropped and broke. Mostly vacation vids and kids videos.
I actually like this idea better because I admit I have not researched the dvd type recorders, but I know that DVD's always seem to get scratched around my house and if my only video was on the dvd and its scratched then your stuck right. I was not thrilled with the mike in windy weather, but if I covered it a bit it was better. If this is as good as the other camera I had its way worth 99 bucks. I cant find that one any more, I assume this is the upgrade or the replacement in the line for that one.
You don't have that problem with a tape. Go get yourself one today like I will. Anyway this is only 99 bucks at circuit city and the batteries for my 'old' one fit it so I don't need to buy anything new.
This is a great little camera for the money. I would highly suggest it to anyone on a budget.
Fun. I have a Toshiba laptop with a built-in 4-pin firewire port and I purchased a generic firewire cord for all of $5 including shipping. Perhaps after a few months, I may upgrade to the DCR-HC96 but for now, I'm happy as a clam. I took some short videos of my boyfriend eating breakfast and within minutes I had them uploaded to Windows Movie Maker and had a ball editing them. I love this little booger. I did my homework. Seriously, for the price I paid, I'm very pleased. I would have liked a microphone jack, an accessory shoe and AV Input but didn't want to spend over $300.
I LOVE MY NEW CAMCODER. I USE IT TO RECORD MY KIDS AND IT'S VERY LIGHT AND VERY SMALL. I HAVE NO COMPLANTS.
I love that you can record in widescreen and full screen. Nightshot Plus. Pros:. Cons:. Sound.
Playback Clearness.
Touch screen.
Size .
And being able to flip the screen so that you can see your self while taping.
I only have one.
Love it got it a week ago and have great fun with it.
Battery Life.
it doesn't come with a firewire cable though.
Easy to use.
