Sony HDR-UX10 4MP DVD High Definition Handycam Camcorder with 15x Optical Zoom

This is my 4th cam corder all my previous camcoders were CANON and never had any problems. This is my first cam corder from SONY. I am really disppointed. Sony offers only 90 day warranty. They offer flat rate repair for $520..I don't recommend to any one this camcorder.Sony HDR-UX10 4MP DVD High Definition Handycam Camcorder with 15x Optical Zoom

This is a friend of mine's new camera. He is not real computer literate. So he asked me to get the video out of it so he could show some of it on YouTube and the like. And with my Mac I had done this several other times with other video cameras. But this camera is horrible with a Mac. I downloaded the manual and it does not help either. I Googled the internet and saw ALL the steps to do it. And I am getting it done now but it takes FOREVER and FOREVER.... I will not do do it with this camera again.





This is the ONLY info I have on this camera, since I did NOT shoot with it. The downloaded manual did not help me at all and to use with a Mac is ridiculous!

The camera is great when it worked. Stay away from this model. You will be recording then it will tell you that it can't read the disk an anything you have recorded is lost.Sony DCR-DVD108 DVD Handycam Camcorder with 40x Optical Zoom

Actually, it probably is outdated. The DVD format is not the most efficient way to go. But the quality of the shots I've gotten with this camera are awesome for the price I paid. I'm willing at this point to get the quality and do a little extra work in the post-production phase to convert the video.





It took a bit a bit to figure out the best way to get the video, in either SD or HD format off the disks and onto our editing machine. We used Any Video Converter (Free) to convert the files to a more editable format.





The quality of the camera when used with proper lighting is amazing for a single CMOS camera. It does have issues with poor lighting. It will become grainy, especially when working under red lights (like what we had in our haunted house).





The limited time that can be captured (especially under HD) per disk can be a problem if you just want to shoot all day long and not worry about changing disks. If you want to make webisodes/independent movies its not really that big of a problem if you manage disk space adequately and use DL disks.





There are also plenty of 37mm lenses that can screw onto the front of this thing but once it is attached BE CAREFUL. Its not a solid mounting system like you'd get with a prosumer/professional camera and I could image a good wack on the lens breaking the camera threads, lens and camera housing quite easily.





The two biggest things that I don't like are the lack of any support on Canon's website. I would have liked to have seen a firmware update available by now that would make increase the battery life, add additional presets, or improve focus detection. Not that any of those things are terrible now, but firmware updates can always make those things better.





The other problem that I have with the camera is that to capture pictures you'll need to buy a miniSD card. Not SD, SDHC, or even microSD...but miniSD. A dead format for cards. So if you buy this camera don't think that the plethora of SD cards you have laying around will cover you. You'll need to buy a miniSD card or two from Amazon at the same time.
