Sony Handycam HDR-CX100: Test Footage
A review for this camcorder is pending (as is also the case with the DCR-DVD300), not sure when or if I'll be able to finish it, work has been keeping me busy these days, which is why I have, once again, not been able to maintain a consistent schedule. Oh well.
Like the test footage? Have your own opinion on the HDR-CX100? Be sure to leave a comment or engage with other commenters, just be kind to each other, please.

Sony Handycam DCR-IP5/IP7: Test Footage
มุมมอง 5262 หลายเดือนก่อน
Part of Sony's lineup of MicroMV camcorders, the DCR-IP5 and IP7 offered the interesting styling that the MicroMV units were known for, this particular flavor being a pistol-grip type (Arguably the least unique of them, however). This unit, in spite of being sold at a premium in 2001, was lacking a number of more important features, like NightShot, or a touchscreen, or a means of navigating the...

The early 2000's were a time of electronic innovation and experimentation, especially within the realm of video recording. Analog formats like VHS and Hi8 were becoming antiquated, and brands like Sony were in hot pursuit of something new. Enter the DCR-DVD300, released in 2003 with its sisters, the DCR-DVD100 and DCR-DVD200, Sony's first units to record directly to DVDs. Can these units stand ...
Sony Cybershot DSC-S600: Test Footage and Pictures

TEST PICTURES: imgur.com/a/sojYjv5 Portable, pocketable, but capable, the DSC-S600 was released in 2006 to positive critical response. The video is, naturally, acceptable for its time, being 640 x 480 at 30 FPS, it's about on par with competition from Canon. Granted, a camera like this wasn't necessarily bought for video purposes, that ended up being more incidental with the rise of video-shari...
Sony Handycam DCR-DVD405: Test Footage

The Sony Handycam DCR-DVD405 was part of the company's 2006 lineup of Handycam camcorders, along with it came the DCR-DVD805. The DVD405 and DVD805 are identical to one another. The units featured a 3.31 megapixel image sensor (with a effective pixel count of 2.05 megapixels for 4:3 video recording, and 2.06 for 16:9). The lens on this unit (paired with its 1/3-inch CCD image sensor) has been q...

The Sony Handycam DCR-DVD108 was released in 2007 alongside the DCR-DVD308, DVD608, and DVD708. These models were of the last few release years of Sony's standard definition DVD lineup, only being superseded by 2008's DVD610/DVD710/DVD810 and 2009's DVD650/DVD850. Overall, the video is painfully average for standard definition, with a lens that doesn't do too many favors. It's possible to make ...
JVC Videomovie GR-AX810U / AX910U: Test Footage

The line of camcorders dating back to the mid-80s, with an iconic debut in Back to the Future! Does JVC's GR-AX810 and GR-AX910 camcorders stand up to their predecessors? In case you're wondering, the only difference between the GR-AX810 and the GR-AX910 is that the 910 has a color viewfinder. I have one of each of these models (hence the intro in which the camera films itself). I had used the ...
Sony Bloggie MHS-FS1: Review and Test Footage [720p60 mode]

Sony's rocky start* in the pocket camcorder market, with the NSC-GC1 camcorder, cemented an unfavorable position for them amongst the point-and-shoot video consumers. Their reiteration of the idea with the Webbie, the MHS-CM1, ultimately, did not help their case. Sony tried once more with the release of the first Bloggie units, the MHS-PM5 & MHS-CM5, which, unfortunately, still did not quite gr...

    The 16:9 is squished to 4:3 because NTSC camcorders tend to record both aspect ratios at the exact same dimensions and probably stores the real aspect ratio in the metadata. From my experience, video editors such as iMovie, puts them back to their original aspect ratios in post.

    I had one of these. That was the camera that made me fall out of love with making videos because it shot things so boringly. I liked my miniDV camcorder and this was supposed to be an upgrade. Turns out i like video because it distorts reality and capturing it with more realism ruins everything enjoyable about video for me. Not to mention i wasn't a cgi nerd and hd made it impossible to hide the fishing line i was using on my models.

      I don't intend to make those public again. The only thing that would ever change that is if I managed to make a sequel show, which is not anywhere remotely close in the foreseeable future. Editing my comment to add the following: I'd also love to re-edit them as well, especially if I wanted to add older footage to whatever a future sequel would require, but the HDD, in which all of my raw footage from Storm Watchers resided, has since died.

  • @vwestlife
    @vwestlife 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I found the best way to import video from MicroMV is with an older version of Sony Vegas. When you plug in the FireWire cable, just tell it you have an HDV camcorder, and then it works perfectly, and cleanly splits up each scene into its own file, with no corrupted video at the beginning and no audio/video synch problems. Older versions of Sony's Picture Motion Browser work as well, but with MicroMV I repeatedly encountered a weird bug where the video it imported disappeared from within the PMB software, even though the video files were all still there on the hard drive. p.s. The DCR-IP5 and IP7 are from 2001, not 2005.

    • @FatCatTech
      @FatCatTech 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I had been under the impression an older version of Vegas may be of help there. I use Vegas 13 to edit videos, unfortunately that's apparently too new for Windows Vista, which is installed on the only PC I have that has firewire (I'll probably be dual-booting that with Windows 7 anyway, so I'll get back to you on that part). Also thanks for catching that, I probably should have put the description through a couple more drafts before I uploaded, reading through it again haha

      @FatCatTech 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Software for importing MicroMV is certainly few and far between, that's for sure. I just used essentially the same process that I've done for MiniDV and Digital8 though. Windows Vista's import video wizard supports MPEG2 capture, so all you have to do is plug the camcorder into the firewire port on any Windows Vista PC, and open the import video wizard (from within the program files, it will not autoplay with these camcorders), or you can open it through Windows Movie Maker by clicking "Import from a digital camcorder".
