I believe there is a newer version of this camera out now, but this one is ABSOLUTELY the perfect match for my small hands. The pictures are SO clear and the camera is SO easy to use. I had waited two weeks for this camera on Back order from Sony. I love the minimal amount of details and knowledge needed to operate this camcorder and produce optimum videos. I recommend this and ANY other products from Sony. Couldn't take it anymore and purchased from Amazon. VERY Quick delivery of ONE excellent product.
Simple and compact.Sound and Video quality is damn good. I like this model.
Unlead (despite what they say) is far too complicated, cumbersome and in many ways not compatible. The video picture images are nothing short of amazing. As much as I love the appearance, build quality, size and comfort of this unit, I can not give it 5 stars. Further, I hate using the dock to connect to my lap top. Overall, the camera is very good once I figure out the software it will be just short of perfect. The only issues that bug me are first and foremost the suckie software. I even tried "Ulead Video 11" after trying over and over to work with the stock software.
I don't use it much, but I'm used to having it and I know I would miss it. Buy with confidence. I've had this camera for a few months now after upgrading from a tape based Sony pistol-grip style camcorder. Get a mini-hdmi -> hdmi cable and the camera works as a terrific player on any hdtv (w/ an hdmi in, of course). This is a terrific camera. Aside from the wacky avchd codec that is not particularly standard, this is a nearly perfect fusion of form and function. I did debate between this and the TG1, but in the end I decided I couldn't live without Nightshot.
Sony should have included this but it's not that expensive to buy one. Still pictures are outstanding and the look and feel of this camera is awesome. The only thing I would suggest is to get yourself a cable to go HDMI. I bought this about two weeks ago and couldn't be happier. If you are looking for a video camera that is portable and easy to use, this is definitely the one. Playing it on my 50" HD plasma you can't believe your eyes. My first experience, I took it to my daughter's dance and took some outstanding HD videos. It is as you are watching a broadcast sports event.
