Nice Camera
2004-01-06

I've had this camera for almost a year now, and it's the first movie camera of any kind I've ever used. I have a digital still camera (an olympus 2100cz) so I'm not a neophyte. I'm finding it easy to use. I use to film my wifes speaking engagements. So i've used this camera in a small room with only 5 or 6 people in it, or in very large auditorium with 200 or so people in it. It worked beautifully. The remote helps a lot when using a tripod. It does an especially nice job picking up audio even at distance. I had to get a special cable to do transfers to my Macintosh, but once on the mac everything gets really easy. I guess it doesnt have all the bells and whistles of the more expensive cameras, but if you look over the stats in the discription above, you should be able to figure out this one is for you. |

| This camera was given to me for Christmas a couple of years ago. It has good video quality, and the ability to play back the tape using an S-video jack. The fade options are limited when compared to other Sony products, but for an entry level camera it is a good value. I recommend this camera to anyone who just wants to record special occasions and for playing around. If you are a serious shutterbug, I would recommend something with more bells and whistles. Overall this camera is a very good quality at a reasonable price. |

| I was very impressed with all the things you can do with this camera. It takes a while to figure everything out but it takes great shots. It is a lot of camera for the money. I was surprised. |

New Owner and very pleased !

I visited several sites, and looked at a lot of product reviews. But after reading some of the reviews here, I decided to take the plunge! I purchased mine for ... less than the stated price here, even though I'm not pleased with the customer service I received from the store I bought it at, I VERY please so far with MY NEW Sony DCR-TRV130! I also brought the infrared unit and can't wait to try it out! I going to get the upgrade for my PC, and I will be set. OOPs almost forgot, both the DV Camcorder kit, and the ULEAD will require updates you can find on their websites to work with XP and they're signed.Thanks again to all those who took the time to write a review. You, and Amazon.com were VERY helpful in my deciding to make this purchase. Ok..upgrades in place, and BOY was it a chore! But I'm STILL VERY PLEASED with this camcorder. I got a 1394 Firewire (Home DV Editing Kit) made by SIIG, Inc., which is supported by XP. and increased memory to 512MB. Why was it a chore? Because I let COMPUSA do the upgrade. I must say they did offer to assist me in getting my camcorder to work with the new upgrades with also included a NVIDA Geofore 2MX 100/200, but BELIEVE me...save yourself the hassle, and do it yourself! In the end I did just that! All I had to do once I got everything set up was make sure my camcorder was turned to VCR BEFORE connecting it to my pc, and before opening any editing programs. I have ULEAD VideoStudio, and MS MovieMaker, and Windows Media Player, all work well together. I was able to make stills, and a CD with ease! This camcorder is GREAT no matter what anyone says! I still give it a four because it was a hassle to get to work with my PC. I almost gave up, but glad I didn't. You will need to get patches for the 1394 kit, and ULEAD from their websites to work with XP. Both are digitally signed. Also don't put an antivius program to the 1394 ports. |
