Sound and vision allows you to capture the full range of life with the DCR-SR200 Handycam(R) hard disk drive camcorder. The ClearVid(TM) CMOS Sensor gives you realistic images and 5.1ch surround sound lets you record the sounds as well as the sights. You can leave the tapes at home, thanks to the internal 40GB hard disk drive that stores up to 20 hours of amazingly clear video (LP) with up to 520 lines of horizontal resolution. An industry leading Carl Zeiss(R) Vario-Tessar(R) Lens captures incomparable detail while the dual recording feature allows you to capture 2.3 megapixel still images at the same time as you`re filming video. And with the included Handycam(R) Station, you can immediately share your footage with the one touch disc burn feature.
 | 2.1 Megapixel (Gross) ClearVid(TM) CMOS Sensor 1/3 ClearVid(TM) CMOS Sensor with 1990K (effective) pixels provides stunning detail and clarity with exceptional video (up to 530 lines of horizontal resolution) and still image performance. The megapixel technology enhances your digital videos and digital still (3980K) photography performance. |
| 10X Optical/20X Digital Zoom The optical zoom helps to bring the action close up from far away. In addition the digital zoom interpolation means that extreme digital zooming is clearer, with less distortion than previous types of digital zooms. | |
 | Professional Quality Carl Zeiss(R) Vario-Sonnar(R) T* Lens Carl Zeiss lenses have an advanced optical multi-layer coating that offers less glare and flare with increased contrast. This results in vivid image brilliance, true-to-life color saturation, and perfect renditions of subtle tones. The additional T* coating on the lens further reduces unwanted glare and flare. |
| Dolby(R) Digital 5.1ch Recording The DCR-SR300 will record in Dolby Digital 5.1ch surround sound with a built-in microphone. By recording in 5.1 channel surround sound you can now experience your home movies with active sounds coming from all directions. Enjoy your personal home movies the way you experienced them while recording. | |
 | 2.7 Wide (16:9) Hybrid Touch Panel Clear Photo(TM) LCD Plus Display (211K Pixels) The 2.7-inch wide (16:9) LCD screen provides excellent viewing clarity with improved resolution. The 211K pixel LCD screen rotates up to 270 degrees for multiple viewing angles providing sharp, detailed images for monitoring or playback, and the widescreen format makes shooting in 16:9 mode and composing shots even easier. |
| Smooth Slow Record By increasing the record rate from 60 fields per second (fps) to 240 fps for 3 seconds allowing you to capture 3 seconds of fast motion and play the video back in 12 seconds. This is great for analyzing a golf swing or a viewing a bird in flight. In addition, record an audio track to narrate what is being seen in the video. | |
 | Memory Stick Duo(TM) Media Slot Capture still images up to 2304x1728 resolution, directly onto Memory Stick Duo(TM) Media for easy transfer to PCs for e-mailing, printing or sharing with other compatible Memory Stick(R) media compatible devices. |
 | Super SteadyShot(R) (Optical) Image Stabilization System This advanced form of Sony's SteadyShot Image Stabilization system that controls an even higher range of shake and vibration frequencies. This optical stabilization system achieves an even higher level of smoothness without degradation of video like some digital stabilization systems. |
| Active Interface Shoe The active shoe provides a location directly on the camcorder on which to add optional accessories while providing power and two-way communication to those accessories. |

"I have used this camcorder for a month now. The use has been all indoors. The recording quality is not so bad indoors (provided you have good lighting). In low lighting areas, there is a lot of graining. I did cut a DVD. The video quality is good but was a little disappointed with audio. I am hearing lots of background humming noise in the recording which kind of ruins the whole experience. The battery hanging o..." Read Full Review »
