Sony has announced a new compact Handycam featuring a single 3.3Mega pixels CCD - and what it claims to be a world first for consumer camcorders. Aimed at the semi professional or home video enthusiast looking for the next leap in quality, the DCR-PC330 is designed to deliver what Sony describes as the "best colour reproduction in the world" of consumer video. The DCR-PC330 is equipped with a Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonnar T* Lens for perfect images with almost no distortion and a new CCD filter technology for highly accurate colour reproduction. With up to nine hours battery life as standard and the ability to record in true 16:9 widescreen mode, the DCR-PC330 is set to take the lead in the consumer camcorder stakes. Minimize

Sony DCR-PC330 Camcorder April 2004 Review

Author's Rating: 4/5 stars

Pros: Color Quality, Carl Zeiss Lens, Size And Battery Life.

Cons: 3 Megapixel Photo Quality And Speed, Customer Support And LCD Screen Control Panel.

Amazing Video Quality. The Carl Zeiss Lens Is Precise And Clarity Is Superb As Is Color Definition. Yet, The 3-Megapixel Still Images Are Minimal At Best. Read More

Produce a jewell and sacrifice it bec. of missing control buttons : pc330

Author's Rating: 3/5 stars

Pros: great video and photo pixels (though possibly increased artificially) in a jewel size

Cons: we have our fingertips help controls while filming, and Sony:(( doesn't seem to realise.

Bottom Line:
Can you both follow your topic and meanwhile read the instructions on the lcd and press the buttons displayed simultaneously? (and miss the action while adjusting ) Read More
