 Proprietary formatting makes this worthless!Jan 05, 2010
In this day and age, when everyone (except Sony, of course) is moving toward universal standards, I am disgusted to find Sony's camera produces video based on a proprietary formatting. In order to retrieve the video, you must use THEIR software... which SURPRISE!... is only provided in a Windows format. Therefore, as a Mac user I am unable to download the videos to my computer for movie creation. Sure... I can purchase "Parallels" and "windows" for a sum of about $200 more, so I can install their software, but why should I have to install that ridiculous operating system? And there are some extremely contrived work-around processes for me to get the video moved from one format to another, but I have yet to find one that actually works. If you are a Mac user.... DO NOT buy this camera; it's not worth the hassle!

It's a great camera.
The only thing I'm still getting used to is the lack of a viewfinder. It's compact, lightweight, and records great quality footage, even with adverse conditions. i.e: Rain, Snow, Fog.

CMOS Sensor Not Good on CameraOct 08, 2009
I had the camera for about 6 months of it working excellent. The quality is good, the navigation is good, and the touch focus was especially good. But after about 6 months of having the camera, the CMOS sensor started to cause the camera to have a distorted image. It was as if it had a wavy or shaky image. And it was very noticeable. It does not stay, but the only way to make it stop is by letting the camera rest. At first this only happened occasionally. But now, after dealing with it for about 4 months, it happens all the time, after only using for about 5 minutes. It is very time consuming and I am planning to get a new camera.
Once again, the camera does the job with excellent quality. But with the distorted quality, it takes the job forever.
I LOVE SONYFeb 06, 2009
I had waited two weeks for this camera on Back order from Sony. Couldn't take it anymore and purchased from Amazon. VERY Quick delivery of ONE excellent product. I believe there is a newer version of this camera out now, but this one is ABSOLUTELY the perfect match for my small hands. I love the minimal amount of details and knowledge needed to operate this camcorder and produce optimum videos. The pictures are SO clear and the camera is SO easy to use. I recommend this and ANY other products from Sony.
