Your Comments/Opinions

I bought the Sony DCR SR72 Hard Drive Camcorder several Ieks ago and although I've not much experience of other systems I've been very impressed with the size, Iight, quality and options of this unit. It only took an hour or so to master using it. The picture and sound quality are very good and the touch screen system is quite easy to get used to. The night vision option on the DCR SR72 is very good, not sure how much I'd use this but worth having! I only have a few negatives with the DCR SR72, the photos it takes are only 1 Megapixel which is nowhere near the quality like you get with your digital camera. In addition, the lens cover is manual so its easy to forget to close it when you put it away. Finally, there is no standard flash on the Sony DCR SR72 Hard Drive Camcorder, although you can buy one. Having said that, these are in my opionion only small negatives, I am very happy with this Sony DCR SR72 Hard Drive Camcorder and Amazon Ire so so os much cheaper than all other sites/shops. You can also get cashback from Sony if you buy it soon. This Sony DCR SR72 Hard Drive Camcorder is so easy to use, I learned how to use it very quickly in less than an hour, and the quality of the videos is fantastic. I would agree that you need to buy the longer lasting battery if intending to take this camera on holiday-which is what I did and I never ran out of battery as long as both Ire charged every couple of days at the hotel.Ill worth the money, and the spacious hard drive meant instant recording without worrying about discs/tapes or running out of space. Software supplied does not work with apple macs and this is a bit of a problem for me because I do prefer to use my mac. The software works fine on my Windows machine, and I will report back if I can get in going with my ubuntu linux setup.
