This camera works okay if all you do is shoot family (or porn?) videos at moderate latitudes such as Japan, continental US or Europe. Its battery circuit failed twice on moist climate (once in Tahiti and once in Hawaii), rendering it unuseable for what...
Works okay on Northern latitudes only - Japan, USA, Europe
Doesn't handle moisture or lots of tropical light or booming bass signals too well

My DCR-HC40 camcorder is about 14 months old and is still recording in good quality. I have not had the problems that some others seem to be experiencing.
Quality video camcorder. Ability to capture still photos. Good low light capabilities
Camera must be removed from the tripod to change tapes which are only 60/80 minutes

My Sony Handycam DCR-HC40 is an upgrade for my family from a JVC SVHS video camera. My JVC was OK while it lasted, but it needed to be repaired more than once, and when my warranty expired and the same problem arose and it was to cost over $150 to fix...
Crisp video, great sound, nice options for upgrading
The still digital photos are just OK, Sony refuses universalism

This is a consumer friendly camcorder that records a digital signal onto a tape medium. It has the usual features like an LCD screen, playback, as well as simple editing. You can download your data to the computer from either the memory card or the...
Easy to use, Digital, takes photos and video, touch screen LCD
Not comfortable for big hands, poor resolution, digital camera quality is poor

When I set out to buy a camcorder last summer ('04) to record our first child, I did a TON of research - partly because no clear "winner" quickly emerged among the Mini-DV newer camcorders. Being the type of person who wants to get all possible...
Easy to use, Sony, still capability, long battery life
Stills are grainy, hand-strap too thin length made for big hands (not many cons)

As time goes by, consumer electronic products get smaller, lighter and cheaper while adding features at the same time. Unfortunately, nothing is free.
Easy to use in auto mode, excellent video performance, features
Difficult to access and use manual controls, price, still picture performance

"I need to replace an old camcorder that I have from years ago with something new."
Easy to use, compact, touch-screen LCD
Expensive, weak on manual controls, rival manufacturers offer very competitive products

I bought the HC40 for a variety of reasons. I wanted a small sized camcorder, and sony has the best reputation, I have had a good experience with other sony products. Though the sony products tend to be more expensive than similar products from other...
Small size, great body, video quality all the required connections
Poor still images, battery life, expensive accessories

This is a very nice digital camcorder. Its got all the do-dads, and gee wiz stuff. But when looking for a camcorder the one reason you should be looking in my opinion is how good a video does its shoot. DISCLAIMER I didn't buy this camera. I looked at...
Sony quality, good video, small size
200 more than other very nice sony models
