Sony?s DCR-DVD200 DVD Handycam
 

Does anyone own one of these? This is not for professional use. I just want something for X mas and to record rugby games.

I've got the Sony TRV 33 Mini DV. It's a pretty sweet cam!

Yes...I have the same one...It's bad ass shit but you got to have filters and other equipment to augment it's overall usage....:2 cents:

Do you ever use it for stills?

Nobody has this toy?

The DVD Handycam is like a "Stone Soup". You can make one but it's not very practical.

i wouldn't recommend it, I'd wait a while.
stay with minidv for now :2 cents:

you can't rewind to a certain point and start recording. you have to erase the DVD and then start over again. it's nice if you want to shoot straight through and dont care to much about rewinding.

that would suck

Fuck, this thing looks hot. That does suck about rewind and shit.
