A bit disappointed Sent: 13 December 2008 I have been making movies for about 4 years with the video mode on my ordinary cameras, I wanted to be able to zoom in further on wildlife, as above I am a bit disappointed with the shakiness of the footage, you definitely need a tripod to zoom in to digital x2000, there is no stablization as there is with my Fujifinepix camera. I would recommend you do like I did and download the manual from the Sony website and read some of it first, order a Memory Stick from amazon at the same time, you will need the PRO Duo with "Mark2" or without.SONY MEMORY STICK PRO Duo with Adapter 4Gb. You can record both movies and stills to the card no problem then use movie making software to edit and compile. I use Serif Movie Plus5.Magix Movie Edit Pro 11 2007 (PC)(this is similar).There are plenty of free ones available in a search.
To get back to my review, I think this Handycam is well worth the money, sleek, stylish and small enough to carry around wherever you go.
No remote control Sent: 16 October 2008 Page 19 of the Operating Guide (Step 1: Checking supplied items) states that the Wireless Remote Commander is supplied only with Models DCR-DVD310E/ DVD410E/DVD710E and DVD810E.
Great price Sent: 22 August 2008 I love this. Haven't quite figured out how to use all the features yet, but I can use it and I like it very much. For the price it is now (I paid £178) it is a steal, although you have to add the cost of DVDs, carry-case and memory stick if you are using one. The discs (once finalised) slip straight into the PC and DVD and play in my case (although strangely one of them will not play on the DVD for some reason). Niggles: the accompanying CD turns out to be just tips for good filming. Nothing about software/editing the footage so where is that?! Took the Handycam on holiday recently and was very careful to put it in standby or turn off when not using; however, on return was surprised to see an inordinate amount of filming of the floor, feet, and the inside of the carry case. Before you blame me, as I was being very careful, I can only assume it slips into recording mode rather too easily for my liking. However, a great buy for the price.
