Sony HDR-CX260V High Definition Handycam 8.9 MP Camcorder with 30x Optical Zoom and 16 GB Embedded Memory (Black) (2012 Model)

It is very light and very easy to handle. The battery last at least 3 hours without recharge. And I used it to take some pictures and always came out clean, even my wife and kids have learned how to use it in the first min. I am very impressed with ...

We were looking for a camcorder that would shoot in 1080P and have good stabilization. This one went above and beyond. We filmed our hike up Mt, Adams in NH in winds of 45-55MPH with higher gusts. We never thought the video would be useable for YouTube, ...

This camera was a birthday gift from my husband. I set up the HD recording at my bird feeders. You can record and then save pictures from the recording. One of the best features and ease of use is out of this world. Absolutely easiest camera I have ...

Quality of HD video, compact, good value for price paid Recommend for buyers interested in a compact, easy to use video camera with built in memory or add extra with SD card...Great video quality, easy to use and picks up sound pretty good from a distance...Great Image Stabilization/Wind Reduction feature Outer housing seems to be cheap, bought accident insurance because of that reason We were looking for a camcorder that would shoot in 1080P and have good stabilization...

Great HD image quality, good auto adjust functionality Too small for large hands, touch doesn't work with large fingers, menu system is counterintuitive...When it became clear that this camcorder was unusable for me, I went to get a refund...Now I own a very expensive webcam...
