Comment on Sony Camcorders-which one is better? Please give advice.? by Iridflare

It’s the same camcorder, just different colours. The MPEG-2 PS video format is a bit unusual – I’d find out what video editors will work with it before buying one. Don’t rely on the supplied software.

Comment on Panasonic HDC-SD9D is £450 but 1080p. Sony SR12 is £900 but is 1080i. Does 1080p mean the cheaper camcorder? by cityguy_jay

The Panasonic HDC-SD9 D is the same as the HDC-SD9 ( the D means its sold by the dixons group Currys, Dixons PC world)

The HDC-SD9 outputs at 1920 x 1080 (1080p)

the Sony HDR-SR12E can ALSO output at 1920 x 1080 (1080p)

The reason you’re paying more for the Sony is that it has a 120GB Hard-Disk for storage…… and the Sony has a bigger Cmos Sensor size..

Panasonic 1/6" x 3 (3 CCD or 3.979 x 3)… = 11.937 mm sq

Sony 1/3" CMOS x 1 (17.280 ) ………….. = 17.280 mm sq

The Sony will give much better image quality, and less noise than CCD, less power consumption then the Panasonic, and because CCD/CMOS Sensor are very expensive to produce, you pay the premium for a bigger sensor.

Both Camcorders a very good the Panasonic has 3 different sensor for producing RGB colours, is smaller lighter, both use SD cards.

Comment on how do u put a video on you- tube with an old old sony camcorder? by da pctuner

plug the cable that came with camera into your VCR RCA (in) ports, This way all is analog. Or get a 8mm to VHS converter tape for your VCR. On the TV select line-in and channel 3/4. While your at it put in a blank VCR tape and record it.

This camera does not have mic input, and looking at the picture, does not appear to have a photo accessory shoe either.

I ran the camera …
I ran the camera for over an hour last night using the extra batteries, and it only depleted about 25% of the battery.

Next weekend I might make another trip to radio shack and get some D cell battery harnesses and extend the life even more.

You could try …
You could try attaching the battery packs to the camera, or lengthening the wires so you could wear the battery packs.

In my case, the extra batteries are fastened to the tripod that the camera sits on.

It’s not convenient by any means, but it’s a method that can be used to extend the battery life for about 10 bucks (provided you already own a soldering iron and some solder).
