Product Details
If you're looking to upgrade to a camcorder that provides semi- to full-professional video quality without spending a fortune, the Sony DCR-VX9000 is for you. This shoulder-mounted digital camcorder's ergonomic design allows for comfortable use long after you've exhausted the 95-minute regular battery life. ..The full-size DV tape deck increases potential recording time substantially, up to 184 minutes with a DV180ME battery, compared to the maximum of one hour with a mini-DV tape. The mono viewfinder is a completely separate component and provides superior focusing capabilities and better contrast assessment using the VX9000's Zebra Pattern Generator. Several focus options, including full manual, full auto, infinity and push auto, give you greater flexibility when shooting a variety of situations. The DCR-VX9000 also provides complete control over the camcorder's functionality and includes a host of creative tools such as a slow shutter speed mode, digital fade, digital overlap and digital zoom.
