Pros Small size. Good ergonomics. Screen on back. Still photos. Compact tapes & batteries.
Cons Expensive. MicroMV format may or may not equal MiniDV. Lens could be more wide-angle.
Recommended it? Yes

I wound up buying the new DCR-IP220 just before leaving for a vacation that included a few days visiting historical sites in the gloomy midwestern U.S. (Missouri and Illinois), and a week on sunny Grand Cayman in the Caribbean.

For my second trip to Hawaii I wanted to have some sort of waterproof camera that I could easily take with me while climbing through bamboo covered hills, wading through streams, and snorkeling.  Unfortunately, most water-proof cameras were not getting very good reviews.  The PlaySport...

This is a very early review on a camcorder that I recently purchased for my daughter for her highschool graduation.

As we were planning on going on a cruise later this year, my daughter wanted to have a nice camcorder to record the trip with.  Since cruises often go to places where... Read full review »
