- The highs and lows of digital camcorders: Flip Video Ultra vs. Sony Handycam HDR-TG1Unqualified TesterWhy print such a useless piece? Anyone who still uses a 27" CRT for anything is not qualified to review anything more advanced than a toaster.So what was your conclusion?I'm guessing that the 640x480 looked better...

- Sony Handycam HDR-SR1
- Photo gallery: Sony Handycam HDR-SR1A virtual twin of the Sony Handycam HDR-UX1 but with shiny black-plastic accents, the HDR-SR1 delivers essentially the same video but without some of the accompanying media headaches. It too uses the AVCHD format to record 1080i HD video, but on a 30GB disk rather than...

- Sony Handycam DCR-HC46
- It's hard to tell Sony's line of MiniDV camcorders apart just by looking at them. That's because the entry-level Sony Handycam DCR-HC26, the step-up Handycam DCR-HC36, and the midlevel Handycam DCR-HC46 all have the same basic shell and extremely similar feature sets. But inside, each has a different CCD sensor,...

- Sony Handycam DCR-DVD205
- One step above Sony's bottom-of-the-line DVD105, the Handycam DCR-DVD205 is essentially the Handycam DCR-DVD305 without the impractical extras: standard stereo recording rather than Dolby 5.1, no media slot for still photos--they're saved to the DVD instead--no accessory shoe, and no analog input for copying your old tapes to DVD. The...

- Sony Handycam DCR-SR100
- Sony may not be the first manufacturer to enter the hard drive camcorder market--that distinction goes to JVC's Everio models. But with excellent video quality and fluid operation, the Sony Handycam DCR-SR100 puts all but the more expensive JVC 500 series models--as well as Sony's own DVD-based models--to shame. Video...

- Sony Handycam HDR-HC3
- The Sony Handycam HDR-HC3 brings down both the size and the cost of HD video to more reasonable levels. It's still not an impulse buy, but the excellent HD/SD video quality, the good mix of automatic and manual features, and the passable still-photo capabilities will make you feel like you...

- Sony Handycam DCR-HC96
- At the top of Sony's consumer MiniDV camcorder line, the compact Handycam DCR-HC96 earns its place with excellent video quality, a full suite of manual and automatic functions, and above-average photo quality. However, its normally merely awkward touch-screen interface becomes downright frustrating on the Sony Handycam DCR-HC96's insufficiently large 2.7-inch...

- Sony Handycam DCR-DVD505
- Thanks to a large LCD screen and responsive performance, shooting with the Sony Handycam DCR-DVD505 is a pleasure; throw in its superior video quality, and the camcorder makes an excellent alternative to MiniDV models if you're looking for straight-to-player convenience. And paired with the optional Bluetooth center-channel microphone, its 5.1-channel...

- Sony Handycam DCR-HC26
- The Sony Handycam DCR-HC26 packs a powerful 20X zoom into an extremely compact, lightweight chassis at a very low price. But while this easy-to-use, touch-screen-controlled MiniDV camcorder won't break the bank, its grainy footage and poor low-light performance won't win any awards, either.It wasn't long ago that you'd have paid...

- Sony has been the public face of Blu-ray since the format's inception, and while most of the focus during the bitter Blu-ray vs. HD DVD format war was on the company's PlayStation 3, Sony has been making standalone Blu-ray players from the start, beginning with the $1,000 BDP-S1. Unfortunately, that...

- Coming from a company known more for its plasma HDTVs, the Panasonic TC-32LX85 is a pleasant surprise in the 32-inch LCD category. Attractively designed and well appointed with generous connectivity, it is also a good performer overall, although by no means perfect. I was particularly impressed with the set's color...
