    Arguably one of the finest 3-chip cameras around even though it's more than 5 model years old. The picture quality of this camera will blow the doors off of any single chip camera. The Sony has many wonderful features like Super Steady Shot, an extra large flip-out screen and fantastic picture quality. Although it's big for a hand-held it's balanced nicely and when used on a tri-pod the top-access of the tapes is a god-send! Other nice features are (optional) manual control of exposure (perfect for shooting theatre), focus and sound (mike) level. The combination of the '900, Azden's ASGM-1 "shotgun" microphone, VZ-ROCK's Rocker Zoom and my Bogen tripod with fluid head make it a fantastic tool for shooting just about anything.

    My one gripe with the camera is I could wish for finer adjustment of manual exposure. It appears to step in 1/2 F-stop increments which is regretably quite noticeable. They're fixable in post-production but...

    Make sure the camera is not worn out though. Replacing worn-out heads is likely a $$$ proposition. Camera's that are being sold by their original owners and show well in pictures with little rubbing wear or scuffing are probably better bets. Look for cameras with cases too since that's often the sign of conscientious owner. Buying from pawn shops can be a bit iffy since they know little about the use or condition of the camera.

    When my camera I bought off this guy came in it had gliched heads, and audio drop outs. The overall outside condition was good though. I got a great deal for it, but I ended up needing to get a 200 dollar repair. He did not tell me that it had that problem when i purchased the camera. So watch out.

    Very good camcorder, very well maintained, high quality recording, many accessories, in very good shape, great features to play with, on recording and playback.
    I need a better camcorder than the average family camcorders, and this one was used but the previous owner keep this one in very good shape, and I got it with a lot of extras, so far I'm happy with this purchase.
