Editorial Reviews:

Sound and vision allows you to capture the full range of life with the DCR-SR200 Handycam hard disk drive camcorder. The ClearVid CMOS Sensor gives you realistic images and 5.1ch surround sound lets you record the sounds as well as the sights. You can leave the tapes at home, thanks to the internal 40GB hard disk drive that stores up to 20 hours of amazingly clear video (LP) with up to 520 lines of horizontal resolution. An industry leading Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar Lens captures incomparable detail while the dual recording feature allows you to capture 2.3 megapixel still images at the same time as you're filming video. And with the included Handycam Station, you can immediately share your footage with the one touch disc burn feature.

Review: The product came new in the box and has been used and is great. Delivery time was as promised. Not the best price but close to it. I was a satisfied customer.

Review: Just bought it before the Labor Day weekend and used it to film my 1 yr old son for a half day trip to Fioli Garden. I then imported the all clips to my computer and used the Sony picture motion to burn a DVD. My wife and I were very happy with the quality of the picture the color came out brilliant.
However, there's a problem I haven't figure out yet why the film was skipping frames and my son appeared "jumping". I guess I have to play around with it some more and see how it works out.
And another thing I didn't like was that the battery sticking out too much make the camcorder looks less attractive than in the picture
I gave 4/5 rating

Review: After comparing several different models, I chose the sr220 for several reasons: High capacity HDD, High-end resolution, and the Sony brand name.

Well, I'm sure it must be a great camera, judging by all of the glowing reviews. But,to date, I have not had the chance to actually USE IT!

I purchased the sr220 from Dell for a little over $700. I also picked up a 'Bluetooth' wireless microphone ($150) and the VMK1000 AIS remote mic adapter($153)

I read the manual and checked out the camcorders features shortly after it came in the mail. However, I did not get a chance to use it until AFTER the 20 return period.

The first time I used it, it DID NOT record. I was taping for 30-45 minutes, yet nothing was stored on it.
Thinking it must be user error, I re-read the manual ( as well as the more detailed instructions that come on a Cd Rom.

The next opportunity came several days later. When I tried to record, I got an error message 'cannot access hdd.'

So, my review of a brand new $700 camcorder is this:
My Sony DCR sr220 camcorder has the EXACT same capabilities and picture
quality of a bar of soap. Each will record and playback EQUALLY.

A little harsh? Maybe. But, when someone shells out over $700 for something, it SHOULD WORK!

I had to send it in for repair and have yet to hear ANYTHING.

I'll probably sell it on EBay and go with a different brand.
