Sony DCR-SR55e, exceptional camera! I initially intended to buy the Sony DCR-SR35e with the 30gb hard drive, then I saw that the 55e had the optional accessory shoe which allows you to purchase better microphones and lights etc. The quality is excellent for what I need, and the touch screen is a handy extra! For under £300 this is an extremely good camera and I would highly recommend it to others. Plus points include the crystal clear LCD, 40gig hdd, docking station, included remote, one-touch DVD burn feature and the touch screen.... more info
Perfect for capturing those family moments After lots of research I settled on the SR55. The reasons for this were 1. Sony products are normally good quality.
2. 40gb hard drive meant I didn't have to carry lots of DVDs as with other camcorders.
3. Small size meaning easy to carry round on holiday.
4. Not overly priced. What I have found about this camcorder so far is that it is very easy to set up and use. A novice could easily pick this up and be fully conversant within an hour. The docking station is very effective... more info
EASY PEASY WITH GREAT RESULTS Got this little Sony Camcorder very recently and have never had one of these before, luckily I have a good friend who knows about this stuff and recommended this SR55 along with the Canon FS10. So very easy to use and got the hang of it within minutes plus the results are superb, really good feature that swung it for me was the low light sensor that is so good that you can almost go ghost hunting!!! A 40GB hard drive is huge for the type of stuff we will use it for, only bad thing if there is one... more info
Better than the Panasonic I had to make a choice between the Sony SR55 and the Panasonic SDR H40. So I went for the Panasonic as it was cheaper. OMG what a load of rubbish that was. So that went back and replaced it with the SR55. It is 10 times better. picture quality is far superior and working with the finished file was also easier as it is in mpeg2, something that was much harder on the Panasonic. All in all it is light, small, sturdy and a good quality home movie camera. Had a lone of a HD Sony and it was really nice but HD... more info
