Summary: The reason I got this was so that I could make VCDs. I tried on 2 different computers, one computer was 2 months old, one was 1 year and it would not copy to my hard drive and it would not recognice the CD-R in my CD burner, and my CD burner was also made by Sony. I called for technical help and they said they did not support my sony burner, or my samsung. I bought third party software for $70 and still having problems

It also includes features you would expect from a camcorder twice its price, such as Super NightShot Plus zero-light video recording, digital photo mode on Memory Stick DUO media, and Super SteadyShot image stabilization. Why settle for less when you can have a Sony.
