Sony Handycam HDR-XR520V

I bought a sony hdr-xr520v camcorder. This is the best camcorder I have ever owned. The 240gb hard drive and pro duo reader is all the space you could need for whatever you plan to film. The HD recording is awesome and the 12 megapixel camera is one of the best around. You also get slow motion, night shot, and gps. It is a little high on price but you get a lot of tech and space for your buck.

Everything is perfect and to my satisfaction. I decided to buy it just for personal use and record videos.

This is the best digital camcorder I've ever had. It has great features, big hard drive, GPS, etc.
I prefer this one compare to Canon brand digital camcorder.

Love this video camera. I am also using it as my camera too. It has great picture quality and very easy to use.

I was very impressed with the product. I got more than I was looking for at a bargain price. Thank you.

It's a great camcorder, the super steady shot makes the film look like you shot with a tripod. When you watch the what you recorded with HDTV, everything looks so clear, just like a picture when you pause it. I am satisfied with this camcorder!

The package arrived quickly but was missing a part. Though it was Sony's fault, Jersey Photo sent a replacement as soon as as they heard it was missing.

This camera is so easy to use, we never even had to open the instruction book. I love the option of the power going on/off whenever you open the viewfinder. It has a huge storage capacity and the hard disk drive is a must on vacation. We took this camera to Greece for 6 weeks and we barely scraped the surface of the storage capacity. Recharging was a breeze as well. The charger can be used with a simple converter for charging in Europe. I can not say enough great things about this camera. It even takes super still shots at an amazing 12.1 MPixels. Worth the price.

Great quality of pictures/video, large disk space, the only slight limitation is when you connect external lens (2X or 0.5X) you can see it in the boundary (black) of the taken video/pictures

Still learning, but this is a GREAT camera. Very good quality, and the price was right. A newer model comes out in the fall of '09 so expect the price to drop even further.

The results of this Handycam are outstanding. I have been using movie cameras for about twenty years, mostly Panasonic and Sony. This one so far has been the best when it comes to picture sharpness (Truly High Definition) and sound (Crisp clear sound). I decided to buy this XR520V because of its reviews, its features, the "SONY" name, and the humongous storage it has (500GB Hard Drive).

It even automatically enhances the light when you zoom in from a lighted area to a dark area.

I had real fun playing back the fireworks recorded on July 4th. The results were as equal as the physical presence itself.

Going through the e-bay deal made me really happy as I got a very good deal, saved money, and got my delivery on time.

Fast Shiping, Great Price, with awsome package. I record my etire Euro trip with it, and very happy yo get it.

I'm a novice with camcorders, but the picture seems very high quality, touch screen is super cool! Pretty easy to figure out.

una muy buena camara de filmar, excelente precio y rapido entrega. muchas gracias!!!!!! +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
