Sony DCRTRV510 Handycam Digital Camcorder

This camcorder features the new Digital8 video format, which records digital video and audio for outstanding digital quality with up to 500 lines of horizontal resolution. Handycam camcorders play back virtually any 8mm or Hi8 tape, and Sony's seven Program AE modes will make all of the necessary adjustments to the shutter speed, aperture, and focusing for a variety of indoor and outdoor situations. These AE modes consist of portrait, sports lesson, spotlight, beach and ski, sunset and moon, landscape, and low lux. With Sony's NightShot system you can capture video even when shooting in total darkness (0 lux) up to 10 feet away using the built-in infrared system. The camcorder also features eight picture effects: slim, stretch, mosaic, solarization, monotone, sepia, negative art, and pastel, and five fader effects: black, mosaic, bounce, monotone, and overlap. The new analog recording capability allows you to record from an analog source and converts to digital video through AV inputs.
