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

This camcorder is simple to use. The feature i like the most is the touch screen LCD which enables you to access your videos very fast. The battery is decent but if you want to have more than 2 hours to shoot a video, you should get a back up one. I'd recommend this cam to any one.

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

I used this weekly to shoot video and pics of my kids. It's the best camcorder we've owned and I receive compliments on it's size, look and capability frequently. The only and I mean ONLY complaint I would have is that it's almost too small. I have big hands and it's a little awkward to use.

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

Takes great video. The still picture quality is good unless you need to print large photos. It is fine for me. Play back volume is a little low but maybe it'll be better as I get more familiar with using it. Just been a couple weeks now.LCD screen is hard to see in bright daylight but pictures and movies still turn out great.
