Sony DCR-SX44 Flash memory Handycam Camcorder Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This camcorder does everything it should. For a palm-sized camera, 60x optical zoom is impressive. It comes with 4 GB of internal memory, and it takes Memory Sticks and SD Cards up to 32 GB. This makes its memory sources more versatile than any other palm-sized cam that I've seen.

This year's model, the DCR-SX44, comes with an LED Light on the front of the camera for added lighting in low-light situations. One of the biggest complains about last year's model, the DCR-SX40, was that it had nothing to assist with low lighting. Clearly, Sony addressed the customers' concerns, and I like that.

Other nice features: a switch-on lens cover (button on the side), zoom-in microphone (audio zooms with video), and nice color selection (red, blue, and silver).

It comes with everything you need in the box: battery, power cable, A/V cable, USB cable, and some optional software (which I have not touched).

Uploading videos online straight off the camera is easy. If you want to edit with Windows Movie Maker, you will need to convert video files from MPG format to WMV format. Simple solution: download WinFF file converter for free, and it converts movie files in a matter of seconds. Then you're good to go.

To those who criticized the video quality: Don't buy a standard definition palm-sized camera and expect high definition video. If you did that, then it's your own fault that you're disappointed. For a SD camera, the picture quality is FINE.
