Sony DCRDVD810

 DVD & 8GB Flash Memory & Memory Stick Hybrid Handycam

Hybrid Plus Technology – Record video to 8GB Flash, DVD or Memory Stick!

DCRDVD810 Gives you the choice of three recording mediums! Record high quality video direct to the Handycam's internal 8GB Flash memory (or Memory Stick) – and then export the final movie to DVD.. in camera! Up to 5h 25min can be recorded direct to the built in 8GB Flash Memory and can then be copied to your computer via USB2.0, eliminating the need for any media at all. The DCRDVD810 will ensure you will never run out of recording options!

Zoom Microphone
The built in Zoom Microphone automatically "zooms" the lens and microphone at the same time. Zooming in on one person in a large crowd will increase the cameras sensitivity to their voice, while other sounds will not be as prominent. The Zoom Microphone closely resembles the natural human experience, where moving closer to a particular object increases the sensitivity to the sound coming from that location.

Quick On
Pressing the "Quick On" button enables "Stand By" mode – perfect for conserving battery power during shooting down time. Simply pressing "Quick on" again will wake the camera up, and let you start shooting in only 1 sec!

Film Roll Index and Face Index
By enabling Film Roll Index it is possible to preview the beginning of scenes and create scene indexes set at specified display intervals (3, 6, or 12 seconds and 1 or 5 minutes) – perfect for seeing what was recorded in a long take. This Handycam also features Face Index, allowing you to begin playing scenes simply by pressing the human faces detected during shooting.

Easy YouTube Upload
The supplied Picture Motion Browser software makes uploading your footage to YouTube (or your favourite online service) easy! PMB automatically converts footage to a smaller file size and assists you in uploading clips to the web.

2.7" Wide Touch Screen LCD
The Touch Screen interface makes using this Handycam a simple and enjoyable experience. Powerful features such as Spot Focus and Spot Metering allow you to adjust the focal and exposure points of your scene at the touch of a fingertip.
