Sony HDR-CX100 AVCHD HD Camcorder with Smile Shutter & 10x Optical Zoom (Black) Decide Now

I love this Sony video camera! I received it as a Christmas present (thank you Amazon wish list for making it easy for my husband to get "just what I wanted"). It's incredibly compact, easy to use, simple to hook up the HDMI and watch on an HDTV, upload to a computer (much faster than the mini-DV I had before) and to create an AVCHD to play on a blue-ray or Playstation 3 game system. The picture quality is amazing for general outdoor use. Some indoor use is a bit grainier, however it's still better than I expected from other reviews I've read. The frame-by-frame quality is impressive too. I've recorded my horses in action and can see all the nuances of their movement. Same goes for my boys at swim meets. Being able to zoom into their expression after a race from clear across the pool is priceless. I could go on and on even though I still haven't used all the features yet. I love new technology!!! I paid less for this video camera than I did for each of my last four video and digital still cameras. I certainly would recommend this to anyone looking for a great video camera at an affordable price.Get more detail about Sony HDR-CX100 AVCHD HD Camcorder with Smile Shutter & 10x Optical Zoom (Black).
