i was browsing my options doin a little online shopping for a camcorder.....the one that caught my eye is the Sony DCR-TRV70..... are their any suggestions as to what is good and bad?? i have to have mini DV of course and im look to spend around 1k.

 

hi i'm looking to have one too... last year i bought a Sony DCR PC 101 that is a pocket model mini DV and i can say it is a beautiful camera ( i saw it in action compared with other kind of cameras of other constructors and i can say that Sony have something more than others....)
now i'm gonna buy the 120 model (1.55 megapixel, so i can make good pics....)
let me know...
see you
Loris

 

sony is

 

went to the local Fry's electronics store.....and played with their nice selection of cameras......i tested em all.....i first considered the cannons because they have 16x optical and 320digital zooms......but who needs to see the year on a penny an eighth mile away.....so i decided on either the sony DC TRV 70 or 80 models....both are nice and not much diffence except price......now i just have to come up with the $K to get it..
