Sony DCR-DVD201 Handycam DVD Camcorder - High Price, But Not Performance

Date of Review:  Mar 30, 2005
The Bottom Line: I still don't quite understand why somebody would pick the DVD-based camcorder over the tape one. Yes, the discs look shiny and more...
Review: Friends do that. They ask you for an advice on which camcorder to buy and then buy something you told them not to get. Based on my recent experience with Sony DCR-DVD101 mini-DVD camcorder, I recommended my friend to stay away from DVD-based...

Nice camera, tough price

Date of Review:  Jun 24, 2005
Review: This dvd camcorder is full of features and will satisfy most people. The movie quality is great, yet I do agree with other reviews that some noise is visible in low light condition. This was a major flaw to me considering the money paid for this...

Looks Nice, Easy to Use, Not for Budget Minded

Date of Review:  Aug 31, 2004
The Bottom Line: Still undecided. Less resolution than competitors, but much higher pixels. Looks real good, but expensive. DVD-RW is a good recording format for DVD players. Sleek looking.
Review: As a quick correction to the epinions product listing, the Sony DCR-DVD201 does not use the mini DVD-RAM discs. It uses the mini DVD-R/RW discs.

Customers of mine coming in to browse the camcorders often linger around the mini DVD...

Technology just not there yet

Date of Review:  Feb 5, 2005
Review: I am an avid movie maker and was excited to move to this new technology which would eliminate the long process of moving my movies over to my computer for editing. I loved the idea of just popping in the DVD and editing. The big problem with this...
