Although the Sony Handycam HDR-SR12 is a very good HD camcorder, it costs far more than HD camcorders that deliver similar quality and features. The key question for potential buyers is whether massive storage capacity and great-quality video hold jus...
Sony’s top-end hard drive camcorder has a 120GB hard drive that can store up to two full days of HD video. Add in superb low light performance, a Carl Zeiss 12x zoom and automatic Face Detection and you’ve got all you need to record a reality...
No one really wants to spend the best part of a grand on a movie camera these days, although you can feel every penny in the build quality, especially the 2.7-inch touch-sensitive LCD. It’s a bit cheap of Sony not to throw in a HDMI cable at this pr...
