- Good, not as good as hoped
I bought this while living in Hawaii and sold it a little before moving. The whole process of getting it from dv to file format was just too annoying for me. The quality of the video was pretty good, not as high as hoped. The slow motion capture was a nice feature, but was pretty restrictive.

The compact size was great and it was relatively easy to handle on the go.

I'd definitely say at this point to avoid DV even at some quality loss and go with something that is recording ... Read More

- Works quite well
This camera works

With ideal conditions, the camera can capture very impressive HDV footage,but with less light... it can be, well... not so good

I got this camera for home use, I own professional Sony HD cameras, so Sony is always my top choice.

For home use, its ok

Note: The deck transports are very good for a camera this cheap, and the lens is above average.

see ya!

- Outstanding camera
I am extremely pleased with this camera. I have been shooting and editing video as a hobby for about 10 years and am thrilled with the image quality of this lens and the processor. If you are going to buy it, my only recommendation is to make sure your computer can handle editing HD video. It is MUCH more data than standard "Mini DV" or Digital Video and will be extremely taxing on your computer's processor.

As compared to similar products in the same price range that I tested in stores, ... Read More

- This Sony camcorder gives great high definition video for an affordable price
This Sony hi-def camcorder (filming in 1080i) provides a lot of value for the price. The key to "home movies" is always going to be the quality of the media on which you are putting your recording, and on to that end, this camcorder delivers very, very well for a relatively inexpensive price.

I bought it for about $1,000 in NYC in March 2007 just before a family trip that was to include the Grand Canyon. When I came home and played the recordings on my HDTV, I felt like I had just produced something ... Read More

- HDR-HC5 Review
So far I have found this to be a great camera. Here are a few of my observations so far.

Video Quality: The video quality this this takes is great. However, there must be sufficient lighting. In a dimly light room, for instance, the video accumulates a fair bit of grain. But by adding a few more lights, or taking it outside on a nice day, your videos will rival that of broadcast HDTV.

Sound: Like most all camcorders the sound is very average. And the only mic's available are proprietary Sony ... Read More
