perfect

By dawnz

this is really perfect for me who loves adventures, this handycam makes my life easy to capture all the moments i want in life. very easy to use and the quality is very good

Small in size, big on features, the ultra-compact DCR-SX65/S Handycam camcorder features 4GB of embedded flash memory, which can record up to six hours of video as well as a professional-quality Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar lens, which delivers sharp, high-resolution images. A powerful 70x extended zoom lets you capture extremely tight shots, even from far away while built-in LED video light makes it easier to capture low-light situations.

Sony DCR-SX65/S 4GB SD Flash Memory Camcorder, 70x Extended Zoom, 3.0 inch Touch-Screen LCD, SteadyShot Image Stabilization, LED Video Light, Silver Features

  • The built-in 4GB embedded Flash Memory can record up to 2.5 hours of footage (LP mode)
  • The 3.0" touch-screen Clear Photo LCD Plus display provides exceptional viewing clarity with 230K pixels resolution. The display rotates up to 270 degrees for multiple viewing angles, as well as provides sharp, detailed images for monitoring or playback
  • The built-in zoom microphone focuses audio recording on your subjects with the camera's zoom lens, helping memories ring true with clear dialogue and crisp, discrete sounds
  • The high-speed, built-in USB 2.0 cable allows for easy connection to your computer without having to remember separate cables. It also fits conveniently into the hand strap so it's out of the way until you need it
  • The automatic lens cover protects the Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar lens from scratches during transport or while not in use by closing the lens cover automatically when the camera is shut off
  • Extended Zoom works in conjunction with 60x optical zoom to get even closer to the action while maintaining image quality
  • Steadyshot image stabilization with Active Mode allows for a greater degree of image stabilization over the well known, Sony developed, SteadyShot stabilization that has been used for years, giving you more stable video even when on the move or in low light circumstances
  • Face Detection technology recognizes faces and optimizes camera settings for both video and still images, so faces are captured more clearly and skin tones look more natural
  • Store your memories in a whole new way with the ability to copy videos from your camcorder directly to an external hard disk drive1(sold separately), all without a computer
  • Your camcorder can also access videos stored on the external hard drive for playback on your TV, allowing you to utilize the camcorder's handy playback features
  • With Film Roll Index, the camcorder previews the beginning of scenes and creates scene indexes set at specified display intervals (3, 6, or 12 seconds and 1 or 5 minutes). Face Index indexes your video footage according to the faces detected in each scene
  • The professional-quality Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar lens is designed specifically for compact camcorders. Precision ground optics help maintain the sharpness and contrast of larger lenses and SteadyShot image stabilization helps reduce blur caused by camera shake
  • Intelligent Auto mode goes a step beyond traditional auto modes by analyzing your shot and then automatically selecting the appropriate settings from seven distinct scene modes (36 different combinations possible): Landscape, Backlight, Twilight, Spotlight, Macro, Portrait, Tripod
  • The DCR-SX65 features an LED light that can assist in low-light situations giving you more flexibility when capturing your video
  • Sony Picture Motion Browser software offers a simple, intuitive way to transfer, sort and view your video and still images on your compatible PC
  • For convenient storage and sharing of your images and videos, the DCR-SX65 accepts Memory Stick Duo / Memory Stick PRO Duo / Memory Stick PRO-HG Duo media and SD/SDHC media (sold separately)
