Pros: Tons of Fun! Great audio! Excellent video!

Pros: Small, takes still pictures, it's miniDV, good video and sound quality.
Cons: It is really expensive and has a short battery life.
Summary: I don't actually own this camcorder. I was in need of one for a project, and borrowed this from a friend to use for two weeks. Over that time, I ended up using the TRV11 quite a bit, and found a lot of features on it that I almost couldn't have lived ... read more
