Sony DCRTRV260 Digital8 Handycam Camcorder w/20x Optical Zoom

When I tried this out there was a buzzing sound that was picked up by the microphone and therefore it would not playback withou a buzzing sound. I sent it off to Sony, as you said it had a 90 day warranty for labor and a one year warranty for parts. I need a copy of your original invoice when you purchased this to send them or the cost to fix it is $269.00.

I am happy with this camcorder. It is easy to use and the price was fair. Thank you.

The camcorder was purchased as a Christmas present. We took it on a cruise in early January. After only a few days it gave us a moisture message and stopped working. Sony claims we dropped it in water and wants over three times what we paid for the camera to repair it. We did not drop the camera in the water, we do not have films of our vacation. We are just out our recorded memories and $300. We will never recommend a Sony product to anyone.

This camcorder is a great deal for the price. It has excellent night shot capabilities as well as a built in light that works great outdoors. It's lightweight and fits nicely in the palm of your hand. Great buy!

I bought this to use solely as a web cam and that's all this review pertains to.

It works perfectly. You can use it with yahoo messenger or anywabcam.com, etc. It's exactly what I wanted.

One thing though - some messenger programs, while they work with the camera, don't allow you to change the contrast and brightness settings from within their program.

If you have any issues setting it up as a webcam you can e-mail me at nick.staff@comcast.net.
