I´m an underwater videographer and bought this camera when I flooded my older mini DV.I turned catastrophe into a chance to take the leap to HD shooting.Even inside an underwater housing the camera is very compact,provides excellent image quality and sound and colours.Could perform a bit better in low light conditions,and the supplied NP-FH 50 battery only lasts about 60´(I bought a non original NP-FH 70 and will last about 190´)but I am overall very very pleased with it.The customisable front knob/button is very useful to manually control either exposure or focus.I use it every day and my customers are amazed at the quality,it turns every dive into a beautiful one even when the visibility is not at its best.I would definitely recommend this camera, the 60GB drive is more than enough,but memory can be expanded via Memory stick (I normally use the stick to store photos). The only really annoying thing is that you can edit the AVCHD (.mts files) only in sony vegas or Adobe premiere CS4 at the moment. Now go out and buy one !!!!

Sony's step-up from the SR10 is the aptly named HDR-SR11E Hybrid HDD/Memory Stick High Definition 'PAL' Camcorder. This remarkable HD hybrid camcorder proves itself worthy with a 5.6Mp ClearVid CMOS image sensor that features Exmor technology and a BIONZ processor. Capture stunning video and 10.2Mp stills with this top-of-the-line sensor. The Exmor technology provides high resolution and high sensitivity for incredible detail and rich, natural color.
The BIONZ image processor multi-tasks by reducing camera response time, eliminating noise from the image before it is converted in RAW and is the power behind the Dynamic Range Optimization process all while prolonging battery life. The HDR-SR11 features hybrid recording to the 60GB hard drive and to Memory Stick PRO Duo and Memory Stick Duo media (sold separately). You can dub from the hard drive to the Memory Stick Media for easy transfer of video and stills to your PC or other compatible device.
The roomy 3.2" wide touch panel XtraFine 1Mp LCD displays your images indoors or out with accuracy, giving you extraordinary recording and playback visibility. Rounding out the major features of the SR11 would be Face Detection technology, which ensures that all your favorite memories with family and friends will turn out clear and natural-looking every time, no surprises.
