Sony DCR-SX83 Flash Memory Handycam Camcorder


No cons on this one5

I have had a VHS camcorder a $1500 Hi 8 camcorder and this is the simplest most compact highest quality recording camcorder I have ever seen. It slips into your pocket turns on when you open the viewfinder the viewfinder is a touch screen. My searches found that the biggest con on camcorders was low light. With Sony's new Exmor sensor the only low light I have found is inside a closet. Stills are as good as my A40 took. Viewing on my 58 inch 1080P is outstanding. And that is from the DVD I recorded. I could have bought four of these with what I paid for my Hi8 in 1994.

I am 82 and have tremors but you cannot tell it from my recordings. I did buy the FV70 battery which adds tons of recording time the cheap travel charger (battery is recharged before the OEM battery runs out) the 30mm UV protector lens (so I don't have to keep opening and closing the lens shutter for protection) the cheap handle which makes the camera easier to handle and less prone to dropping and a 25 watt LED flood that runs four hours on two AA batteries (which I haven't found a use for yet). It is just an overgrown LED flashlight. I have eight computers five that I built and I have never seen anything that is so sophisticated so easy to use so small and so cheap in my life. Oh I still need to get a lens cap.More detail ...
