Sony HDR-SR10 40GB (40 GB) HDD Camcorder

This Sony handycam is superb! The picture quality is second to none, the face detection is fascinating, how does it know that it's a face??
It's small and lightweight, no aching arms from long stints of filming with this camera!
The touch screen is easy to use once you understand what all the symbols mean.
It has a one touch burn button so that you can download directly onto disc from the camera, fantastic idea if you need to empty the camera before doing more filming.
I'm loathed to mention any bad points as I think it's my lack of experience that made me find the downloading so difficult. I found that the instructions were not user friendly, there was not enough detail about how to download on to a PC, it also didn't explain that once you'd used the one touch burn you couldn't download it again.
Also when you download to a DVD you can't watch it on a normal DVD player it has to be suitable for HD.
The software didn't load properly the first time, which I didn't realise, I found it really confusing and frustrating as it wouldn't download or play the video, but once I reloaded the software it worked fine.
It is an expensive camera but well worth the money. I've only had this camera a few weeks so I haven't used all the features yet but I'm looking forward to trying them out and taking some wicked family footage!
