I'm very close to purchasing a Sony CCD-TRV62 Hi-8 Camcorder. Is there anyone out there in notes world that owns one of these beasts and can comment on it, either pro or con? I've also looked at the Hitachi VME-825LA, but am leaning towards the Sony. Another question I have concerns the small LCD display's and how bright light affects them. Can anyone comment on this? Do I need to plan on buying some kind of shroud for it when I'm using it in bright light? Thanks for your help..... Bob

I have TRV81 -- Hi-8. I like it very much. I have so far always used LCD panel(4") inside (theater hall etc) so I do not see any problem with display. | |||||

Bob, I purchased a TR3300E (PAL) 9 months ago. I had looked at the LCD screen models but decided to invest the money in a better lense zoom capabilitie i.e. 21 X Optical and 84 Digital, with the Super Steady shot it works really well. Also the colour viewfinder is excellent. If you have the equivalent model in NTSC maybe have a look at that?. Fred |
