Capture the perfect shot with the Sony DCR-SR47 Handycam camcorder. A built-in 60GB1 hard disk drive offers extended, hassle-free recording and a professional-quality Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar lens delivers sharp, high resolution images and a powerful 60x optical zoom. Hybrid technology even allows you to record video to the hard drive or optional Memory Stick Duo media.
60GB hard disk drive: A built-in 60GB1 hard disk drive can record and store up to almost 45 hours of video footage in LP mode, or up to almost 15 hours in HQ mode. In addition, HDD Smart Protection gives you peace of mind by preventing any recorded video and images from being lost if the camcorder is accidentally dropped.
60X Optical / 2000X Digital Zoom: Ideal for sporting events, wildlife, or distance shooting, 60X optical zoom brings you closer to the action, so you can capture extremely tight shots, even from far away. In addition, Digital Zoom Interpolation means that extreme digital zooming (up to 2000X) is clearer, with less distortion than previous types of digital zooms.
Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar lens with SteadyShot image stabilization: The DCR-SR47 features a professional-quality Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar lens 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.
Hybrid Recording to HDD or Memory Stick Duo media: Hybrid recording technology delivers a new level of flexibility of capturing and transferring your video footage and digital photos from the camcorder to compatible viewing devices. Record to 60GB1 hard disk drive or choose instead to record to removable Memory Stick PRO Duo media (sold separately). You can even select from various dubbing functions to easily copy video or still images from the HDD to the Memory Stick media -- without using a PC.

Great camcorder, made the mistake of using the middle of line quality to save space on the hard drive when we went on vacation for a week, I could have gone for 2 weeks and still have hard drive space. Great zoom but, better use a tripod on max zoom. Holding the camcorder on full zoom resting on the rail of the Disney ship still made it shake to the point when viewing the footage all you can say is bummer. Still pictures are only good for email or facebook etc. You need to get a bigger battery, they still can be charged from the camcorder.
Great product terrible shipping ordeal

The product is excellent. Exactly what I wanted. However the UPS delivery, which by the way had nothing to do with Amazon or Electronics Expo, was the worst shipping experiences I have ever had. I ordered the product and upgraded the shipping to be at my home in time for a holiday vacation. The driver failed to place attempted delivery stickers and when I tried to track the package it was not updated and then suddenly one day it said 3 days worth of info saying they tried to deliver numerous times. Then on the last day I could possibly pick it up the depot was closed on Dec 31. Ups sucks, this product is great.

Handycam is working good,no major issues so far. i have a canon camera that takes pictures and videos. one thing i notice about the handycam,picture is not as clear as my canon. I should have not listen to that lady working at Best Buy and got the canon camcorder instead.

Features are good. I liked the zoom part. However the quality of photos taken are not so good. Battery life is good. Overall good deal.
