Well I received the DCR-TRV520 I tried it out right away, you never can tell. This camera was everything and more. Yea it belonged to someone else and I took a chance on the buy. It looks and does the job asked. Very good equipment! I have them on my best sellers list. What else can I say!
I was informed that I had won the digital video camera (one of three in the auction) only to be informed that a mistake had been made, and there was actually only one camera. I figured I must have won it since my bid for $150 was about two days before the 2 other bidders, was informed that I had not won, my money would be refunded as soon as they had enough in their account to refund it, and there was no particular method used to designate the one winner out of three $150.00 "winning" bids. The early bird does not get the worm in this scenario.
The purchase made on this camera was the easiest and most enjoyable way to purchase things. Great product with prompt service and very professional seller. Thanks again
Have used the Sony Handycam DCR TRV520 both on land and underwater (used in a underwater dive case) and find this handycam both excelent for the job. The pictures are sharp, clear, and the movement stabilization I find great for some of my underwater movies. It might be old but does out do some of the smaller and newer handycams out there.
I have 2 others like this camara but this one does NOT work !!! I am not happy with this camara !!! It will cost me as much to fix it as it did to buy it :(
had an earlier model of the camcorder and it was a real workhorse that lasted about 7 years. did much videoing and downloading/editing for videos. this was newer and had a bit more features and i needed something to view and download many previously recorded videos....
