Sony Handycam® DCR-SR82 Camcorder

Had this camcorder for a month now and it keeps amazing me. The image quality is excellent and it has more than enough features. The Night view facility is nifty and puts this model above the JVC equivelent. 40gbs storage is massive and I have yet to fill it. The only minor disappointment is the battery life, but it is upgardable (at a cost), although the battery meter on the camera accurately lets you know how long you have left.

You should never use your camcorder for still shots, they never compare to dedicated cameras, but this one does fine. Only 1Mp but I printed one off and they are not bad, the colour is excellent, if you want to enlarge a photo though 1Mp will leave you wanting.

Above all else this camcorder is tiny. Easily hand held but the image stability is great! It is a "point and press" model, not over complicated and exactly what I wanted and have come to expect from Sony Products. Highly recommended at any price below £400!
