Comments about SONY DCR-SR47 60 GB Hard Drive Camcorder- Silver:

This camcorder was purchased as a Christmas gift for my grandson. However, based on published reviews and examination of the unit, it appears to be a well-made, sturdy, compact, versatile unit. All I know for sure is that I have a very pleased grandson! Battery life seems to be a complaint.

Comments about SONY DCR-SR47 60 GB Hard Drive Camcorder- Silver:

I use this product as my personal use when I travel or when I am with my family and friends. It is portable easy to carry anyway you go and also easy to use.
The battery life is only 30- 40 minutes so I think having such a good product with like this effect may reduce the product rating. If the battery life is good then the product is absolutely the best then which we get in the market.

loved the small size, lightweight and easy to carry. Operates easily one handed and with touch screen capability, and was a great asset to our recent vacation. Particularly loved the easy switch from video to still shots, and was great to only carry one camera for all our needs. Would definitely recommend this product to friends and family.

This is another GREAT video camera made by Sony. I have been buying Sony video cameras since they produced Betamovie (Betamax Format) back in 1985. This camera offers great durability and usability at a very competitive price for quality.
