Sony Handycam – Ebay Auction
I’ve recently been looking for a digital camcorder. Since this is my first video camera I decided that I would buy a used one off of Ebay. I did my research and decided that the best format for me to use would be mini DV cassettes. I got away with a really nice camera for cheap. The retail price on a Sony DCR-TRV70 Handycam was ~$1,000.00 new, and the reviews that I read on it were all 100% positive. I just won the auction today with a final bid of $180.00 plus $25 shipping. Only downfall about the whole auction was theres no AC Battery charger included, but I found a generic AC charger that is compatible on ebay for like $5, so I ordered that as well, just hope it works.
Here are some pictures off the auction site. I will post more pictures and a review of the camera once it comes in and I have time to play with it.

Camera works great..stills are OK, nothing too great, but decent…Video quality is excellent. Battery life is meeeh, soso.. I get 2 hours on each battery. I had to buy a battery charger from Best Buy for like $75 but I’m returning it because i found the same charger on ebay for $5. Weird.
