Sony Handycam DCR-SR45

The Sony Handycam DCR-SR45 has a good design and reasonable feature set for its price, but the video quality doesn't measure up to the rest of the package.

Sony's 2008 Handycams are flash

Sony's rejigged 2008 camcorder line-up has more cameras than are in attendance for a Paris "oops I've slipped over, how silly of me" Hilton event. We give you a run down of each new model to help you sort the wheat from the chaff.

Reviews

  • Sony Handycam HDR-SR7

    If you've got the prerequisite high-def hardware in your lounge room and are in the market for a camcorder, this is the one to get.

  • Sony Handycam HDR-SR8

    Sony breaks through the 100GB barrier with this range-topping high-def camcorder. Like its SR7 twin, it is highly recommended.

  • Sony Handycam DCR-SR42

    Given its mediocre video quality, the Sony Handycam DCR-SR42 seems overpriced for what it delivers.

  • Panasonic SDR-H250

    The H250 has a lot to offer today — notably a great lens, flexible storage and usable manual features — but it'll soon look as quaint and outmoded as VHS.

  • Sony Handycam HDR-SR1

    A very attractive high-end consumer camcorder, this is easy to use out-of-the-box, offering great features even if video quality could be better.

  • Sony DCR-SR40

    Sony's DCR-SR40 is a solid, midlevel, hard-drive-based option, though still-image buffs won't be impressed with this camcorder's submegapixel snapshots.

  • Sony Handycam DCR-SR100

    For those who want to do away with tape and don't want to worry about manual controls, this might just be the easiest HDD camcorder available -- but check it works with your computer first!

  • JVC Everio GZ-MG77

    The small size and massive video storage capacity of the JVC Everio GZ-MG77 make it a tantalising choice, but poor video quality keeps this hard-disk-based camera from being a tape- or DVD-killer.
