I ordered this camera because I needed something small and easy for a weekend trip and to shoot grandkid movies. It worked fine until I tried to download the movies to my Macintosh. Then I discovered that you cannot use this camera with Macintosh computers! So I have a camera full of movies, a $600 dent in my credit card (with accessories) and cannot even see the results. There is nothing in the Amazon description that says it is not compatible with the Mac system. There is a box on page 27 of the instruction book that talks about using a Mac, but once you get the information online from Sony you learn you can only transfer still pictures to Macs, not movies. You can probably pick mine up cheap on eBay or Craigs List as it is of no use to me at all, and because the packaging went out in the trash before the trip I cannot return it. I will NEVER buy another Sony product, ever.

I bought this camcoder on late of July 2009. The price was $445.
Less than one week later, the price drop it $431.
Who know the price is going to drop again in the following week or not.

THIS CAMCORDER IS AWSOME . FULL HD 1080 , 10X OPTICAL ZOOM , 8GB BUILT IN MEMORY W/ EXPANSION SLOT. AWSOME SOFTWARE AND THE BEST OF ALL , I GOT IT AT THE SONY STORE FOR $399.99 THANKS TO A 20% OFF COUPON SONY STORE ADVERTISED FROM MAY 15- MAY 17. I WANTED A CAMCORDER THAT HAD THE BUILT IN LIGHT AND A LITTLE BIT MORE OPTICAL ZOOM BUT I HAD TO PAY $200. EVEN AT $499.99 THIS IS A GREAT BUY.

I was very excited when I bought this camera but just figured out that it is not going to work with mac. Sony does not provide the software and the format produced by the video is not supported by apple. Their are workarounds to get it to work but that involves lot of steps.

The delivery is fast even I choose standard shipping.
My intention is to buy a HD camcorder. This one is the only I can find under $500. The video quality is not good enough. The static picture is not good as my digital camera bought 4 years ago but they called 4MB.
