Transcript of Featured Review

Hi I'm Sonia and today I'm going to be reviewing the Sony Hi8 Handy camcorder and this is the 20 times optical zoom. This is a great camcorder it has hi8 video and Hifi sound recording system. So you are going to get clear pictures and crisp sound. It has a fix inch CCD imager and 200 pixels and the display screen is right here and it's a 2.5 inch swivel LCD display screen. Like I said it has 20 times optical zoom lenses but it also has a 900 and 90 times digital film as well. And one feature that we really like on here is the night shots plus and what that is is it is an infra red system which allows you to take video at night and be able to see it clear when it is recorded that is a great great feature. Some of the things I wanna show you here is the panel display with all of your functions on it like forward reverse rewind pause stop whatever you wanna do is on this panel. Back here lithium battery over here start stop record is red up here is your night shot mode it's off right now on off underneath the camera is where the cassette goes in. So you will just ___ out like that put one in take one out close it you're ready to go nice handheld size palm size it comes with the lens cover strap and ___ hand protection right here. Easy to use I would highly recommend it that is my review of Sony hi8 handy camcorder thank you.
