  • "terrible video quality"
    2.0 stars
    on by driandsouza

    Pros: hard disk convenience

    Cons: terrible video quality, ineffective steady shot feature

    Summary: I owned a DCR TRV 110E which recently packed up and, being satisfied with previous sony products, (I have a vaio laptop, sony music system & digicam)I decided to go for the relatively more expensive SR42E. Big mistake. the video quality is pathetic. Also, the'steady shot' feature is not very effective as the picture keeps shaking (much more than with my previous TRV110E). Extremely disappointed with Sony. I am left with the feeling that I paid much more for much less.
