Sony Brings the Bling with Swarovski Photoframe

Sony DCR-HC96 Review

8/10

The quality of the clips was good without the digital noise found on many DVD camcorders.

Buy it Now:

Highs: Solid; easy-to-use camcorder that takes decent stills

Lows: Tape-based; LCD should be improved

The DCR-HC96 not only takes MiniDV videos but snaps 3-megapixel (2016 x 1512) stills, making it a reasonable two-in-one digital imaging capture device.

Summary

DVD camcorders get all the buzz in the camcorder world. Poor MiniDV is now the forgotten stepchild
