I just received my Sony Camera HDR-CX110. The main problem is that this camera has not an internal memoryt, so you have to expend additional USD 100 for a decent flash card 32G memory, despite the fact the camera has good image quality, it only have 3.1Megapixel for still images, what a disapointment. For only additional USD40 you can buy a Sony HDR-CX150, 25x optical zoom with internal memory of 16G; even the older version of Sony HDR-CX 100 is better, internal memory of 8G and 4 Megapixel still images. I felt robbed by Sony with this “new version videocamera of HDR-CX100″ DON’T BUY IT, SONY SCAMS YOU WITH THIS MODEL, I will go for a CANON, at least they don’t scam you!!

I usually do not write reviews. However, after I have been looking for a “perfect camcorder” I think this one deserves a review. Note, this is not a perfect camcorder, but Sony got it close enough to make most consumers happy.
About a year ago, I decided to go “high definition” . I decided to get a Canon which has so many features, internal light, internal memory, many adjustments. I realized that all the specifications for almost professional looking movies did not make Canon’s picture any better than this Sony one. Canon was bulky, heavier, and had less zoom.
Sony packed a very simple camcorder. No option to plug a microphone, no place for accessories like light, not that many manual adjustments. Just a good picture and a very small body. If you want a good picture, portability and convenience, this is for you.
The features that this camera has are the ones that I am going to use: good zoom, transfers videos to portable hard drive and , YES, I can not only use the memory sticks but also SD cards. Thanks Sony. People would avoid some Sony products because they do not want to buy another type of memory.
My only complain about this camera is that it looks cheap! The plastic with Sony logo looks horrible! Otherwise, it is a good buy.

I purchased this camera a couple of weeks ago after someone I now had also picked it up. It was to replace my old Sony Hi-8 camera that recently quit working. I must say right off the bat that anyone looking to buy a starter, entry-level, low price high definition camera – this is the one for you! At under two pounds, it’s extremely light, compact, and portable. (Having longer fingers I almost have a hard time working the trigger and zoom.) As an entry level camera, you must be prepared for the fact that things like memory cards, cases, HDMI cables, and other bells and whistles will not come with this camera – hence the low price.
What you do get is an incredible 1080 24bit HD picture that will blow you away. My first outing was to our local Desert Botanical Gardens to view and film the colorful wildflowers, cactai, and butterflies. I used the HD FX (highest quality video setting) for video, as well as taking 3meg pictures. When I returned home and viewed the footage and photos, my jaw dropped at the clarity and vivid, rich colors in beautiful 1080 on my 52″ Sony TV. The details were very crisp and no artifacts were present in the movies. It was amazing.
The camera was easy to use and operate with the simple touch screens, as well as the I-Auto feature to help with the proper contrast and exposure. It was great to pick which scene you wanted without having to fast forward or rewind ever again!! The only drawbacks on the camera that I don’t like are the low life battery that comes with it, as well as having to purchase your own HDMI cable separately. All in all, this is a great camera for the price!!

We have only used it a few times but really like it. It’s easy to use, small enough to fit in a purse, and light weight. You almost miss it when sitting on the tripod.

We had a death in our family recently and there was going to be a lot going on. Family that had not been seen in 10 years or more in some cases and some that had never been met. Also video taped part of the military ceremony…
It’s been a while since I’ve used a camcorder, but this turned really well. I only wish the view finder would open automatically when the camera is turned on and close when turned off automatically. That seems like a no-brainer.
