Sony HDR-XR150 Full HD HandyCam

Before year 2010 ended, I was fortunate to purchase the Sony HDR-XR150 Full HD handycam. This baby was nice since it can produce Full HD 1920x1080 high definition quality video in AVC format. Although you need to download a specific codec on your pc so the video it produced can be played in windows media player, it is still good to have this gadget on my sony arsenals. Its portability was very convinient since it only measures about a Dimensions of (Approx.) : 2 1/4 x 2 3/4 x 4 1/2 inch (57 x 67 x 114mm). It can be easily put on any pockets of your jackets or pouches whenever you bring this baby on your adventures.

It has a rotating touch screen lcd screen which is very nice and even the battery last for two hours of shooting time. It has a face detection and smile shutter features where in it can also act as a 3 megapixel camera if you want a still image picture aside from the clips. Its 120 non removable hard drive can store approxiamately 30 hours of High Definition Videos. You also dont need to worry for the safety of your videos, this handy camera has “HDD Smart Protection” which gives you peace of mind by helping to prevent any recorded video and images from being lost if the camcorder is accidentally dropped.

For convenient storage and sharing of your images and videos, the camera accepts Memory Stick Duo™ / Memory Stick PRO Duo™ / Memory Stick PRO-HG Duo™ media (sold separately) and SD/SDHC/SDXC media (Class 4).

for file transfering, A USB 2.0 interface provides an easy way to connect your camcorder to a compatible PC for fast transfer of video and still images for editing on your desktop computer.

Overall, I was very satisfied on my first handycam. This baby will be my great comapnion on my ventures outside.
