Review:
This camera can withstand a lot of abuse. I have accidentally dropped it on concrete and filmed in the rain for an hour without a cover, and it still keeps on trucking! Although, the rain did make it so the touch flip-screen only works in certain positions (usually tucked away and flipped out, as seen in the video). There are a few cracks even in the plastic, but that does not affect its performance. One thing that is rather frustrating with the HC1 model is that the DV tape ejects from the bottom, so it is difficult to do work with a tripod. Also, it is rather big compared to other models (note: the battery is after-stock). But other than that, it is a powerful and tough Sony camera.

You do not make more video with police forces? Too sad... :(

[AuntBee09]

I understand your disappointment. I have had a few subscribers share similar feelings with me in the past year or so.

All I can say is that I am honored you liked my news videos so much and I thank you for your support.

[dvamateur]

This is nice. It's like the HVR-A1 without the XLR adapter.

[PurpeCrayon]

[alphabeets]
