Tractor Posted May 25, 2010 Report Share Posted May 25, 2010 I have a Sony CX100. It works good, but I'm no expert in video and I bet if I had any clue what I were doing it would be even better. Hehe so I guess it takes HD video of my daughter which is why it was bought. We still don't use it that much because I prefer my still pictures.

KennyFKINPowerz Posted May 25, 2010 Report Share Posted May 25, 2010 I have this one sony hdr-xr200v. I bought mine from a friend back in January for super cheap. When I looked at them in Jan, they were still 899.00. I found some on the internest for 525.00. Some places are still selling it for around 750-790.00. This thing is awsome and it pretty small and light. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CRAWDAD Posted June 27, 2010 Report Share Posted June 27, 2010 so what did you end up getting? I am now in the market for one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farkas Posted June 27, 2010 Report Share Posted June 27, 2010 With HD camcorders, it's especially important that they have Anti-shake or the like... it's much more apparent with these cameras. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JuicedH22 Posted June 27, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2010 I had a $300 gift card to Crutchfield, I ended up buying the Canon HF R100. I figured internal memory was a waste (R10 has internal i guess). I am really glad with my purchase so far. Seems to be a great camera.
