30 Oct 2008Great camera when it worksWe bought this camera right when it came out in spring of 2007. It worked great for a little over a year.

Only problem I have had is if I put it on a tripod and try to leave it to...–Irene Spargrovefrom Amazon.com
"At a press event last summer, a Sony product manager told me that some consumers still find hard-drive camcorders confusing and prefer DVD camcorders instead. Of course, that didn't stop Sony from introducing five new hard-drive camcorders at CES this year: the DCR-SR200, DCR-SR300, DCR-SR42, DCR-SR62, DCR-SR82."
