Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Sony DCR-SR62 30GB Hard Disk Drive Handycam Camcorder with 25x Optical Zoom (Handycam Station Included)
Customer Review: Decent enough, some shortcomings
Summary: 3 Stars
Bottom line: get something newer. This model only shoots standard-definition 720x480 interlaced MPEG-2 video (aka 480i). While you can burn that straight to a DVD, that it shoots interlaced video is a massive shortcoming, and frankly has kept me from using the camcorder much because of all the work I need to do in postproduction just to make the video acceptable by my (admittedly high) standards. It's a BIG problem if you want to pause and go frame-by-frame.
Decent battery life and size. The image stabilization stinks, as does the zoom control and mic pickup. Don't even bother taking still photos- who the heck wants 1MP stills anymore?
