My bro the digicam nut sez these are readily available retail at 600 w/ full
warranty, etc.  I haven't found it so.  OTOH, he's in NYC, the home of the
lowest and highest prices in the world on anything you care to get.

So, is the below a reasonable deal?

Thanks...

 What this camcorder will do:
1.Record Video in complete(100%) darkness
2.This one has a extended Battery for about 8 - 12 hours of Recording time.
3.Record Digital videos on a 8mm or Hi8 tape(at least five times cheaper
than MiniDV tapes.)
4.Beam you movies to your tv set with the wireless transmitter
5.Records CD quality Audio
6. 500 lines of horizontal resolution
7. The camcorder allows you to store hundreds of still pictures on the tape
8.SteadyShot stabilization for smoothvideo recording(takes away the
jerkyness out of the video)
9.450x Digital zoom (Best Zoom on any digital camcorder)
10. Its a Sony :-)


Sony DCR-TRV120 is a Digital 8T camcorder. It means that you can save
money on tapes: Digital 8 camcorders use regular 8mm or Hi-8 tapes instead
 of MiniDV.
