The Sony Handycam DCR-VX2100 combines Handycam design philosophies with professional hardware resulting in a user experience that’s frustration free while producing stunning results. Adding to the camcorder’s versatility, Advanced HAD progressive scan CCD technology improves illumination dramatically, delivering superior low-light performance without the use of infrared technology. With its CCD's increased sensitivity to light, the DCR-VX2100 can capture clearer, brighter video with more lifelike color, even when recording in dimly lit environments. Minimize
