Manufacturer's Description

DCR-DVD110 Shoot, eject and play. Enjoy great picture quality with all the convenience of DVD. Carl Zeiss lens with super power 40x optical zoom. HYBRID function records up to 5 hours onto optional Memory Stick. Face Index and Film Roll Index for easy browsing.

Recording Time Up to 2 hours recording on Dual Layer disc. HYBRID function adds extra recording time on optional Memory Stick.

1/8" Advanced HAD CCD Imager, 800k Pixels 1/8" Advanced HAD (Hole Accumulation Diode) CCD with 800K (effective) pixels provides stunning detail and clarity with exceptional video and still image performance.

40 X Optical / 2000X Digital Zoom The optical zoom helps to bring the action close up from far away. In addition, Digital Zoom Interpolation means that extreme digital zooming is clearer, with less distortion than previous types of digital zoom.

DVD Format Video Recording The DVD recording format delivers digital picture and sound quality comparable to that of MiniDV, but on DVD. Playback of these DVDs couldn't be simpler (depending upon the playback device used). After finalizing the disc in the camcorder, the disc can play back in most DVD Players (SD), computers, Blu-ray Disc players, and even PlayStation 3 video game consoles.

Professional Quality Carl Zeiss® Vario-Tessar® Lens Carl Zeiss® Vario-Tessar lenses® are designed specifically for compact camcorders, and utilize precision ground optics to maintain the sharpness and contrast found with larger lenses.

Super SteadyShot Image Stabilisation System An advanced version of Sony's SteadyShot Image Stabilisation system that controls an even higher range of shake and vibration frequencies, to achieve an even higher level of smoothness without degradation of video like some other image stabilisation systems.

2.7" Wide (16:9) Hybrid Touch Panel Clear Photo LCD Plus Display (123K Pixels) The 2.7" Wide (16:9) LCD screen provides exceptional viewing clarity (123K pixels). The display rotates up to 270 degrees for multiple viewing angles, as well as provides sharp, detailed images for monitoring or playback. The widescreen format makes shooting in 16:9 mode and composing shots even easier.

Quick On Missing an important scene can be frustrating, especially if the reason is because your camcorder is turned off. With the Quick On feature, the touch of a single button places that camcorder in Sleep mode. Another push instantly wakes the camcorder, so you’ll always be ready to capture special moments.

Face Index Face Index makes it easier than ever to find and play back the right video scene. Using Face Detection technology, Face Index indexes your video footage according to the faces detected in each scene. When it's time to play back video, simply search for what you want by selecting from among the detected faces displayed in the index.

Film Roll Index Like chapters in a book, Film Roll Index helps you easily find desired scenes in video footage. When using this feature, the camcorder previews the beginning of scenes and can create scene indexes set at specified display intervals (3, 6, or 12 seconds and 1 or 5 minutes).

STAMINA Battery Power Management System When using the Sony InfoLITHIUM Battery, the STAMINA Battery Power Management System helps the camcorder prolong battery life for extra long continuous recording times from a single charge.

Customer Reviews

Sony Handycam - DVD 110E
This was my first camcorder, and I wanted something that would be easy to use. This fits the bill. Easy operating instructions. Charged the battery and it was ready to go. Good results both indoors and outdoors. The only thing I would coment on is that it does not come with any form of recording media so you will need to purchase some 8cm DVD's and a memeory stick (for the still photos).
The other slight issue is with the software supplied for managing the recordings, its very slow to run.
All in all i am pleased with the results I have got so far.

Sony DCR-DVD110 DVD Handycam with X40 Zoom
I purchased this camera for my Mother to capture her grand-daughter, who is always on the go and never in the same place long enough for a still photo. I was very surprised as to how small and light this camera is, even with the battery. It's surprisingly easy to set up and use and the touch-screen on the flip-out viewfinder was a surprising bonus!

I've always been a fan of Sony products and this is no different. It's small, lightweight and easy to use. Perfect for anyone, of any age, to use. Although if you have large fingers, you may find the touch-screen capability is limited as the buttons are very small.

Overall, this camera is excellent value for money and I am confident that it will withstand the test of time.

Good, but there are better out there
The DVD 110 is by no means a bad camera and will serve most people well. The picture quality is not brilliant so if you really want a clear crisp picture that truly reflects the colours and depth you see with your own eyes then look elsewhere. The manual is mind boggling too... and confusingly there is also the DVD 115 model which has all the same features of the DVD 110 but 5.1 nicam surround sound recording for improved sound back on home theatre systems.All in all i can't say im dissapointed but the DVD 110 does leave you wanting more. Some nifty features however - ask to try before you buy, go into a high street electrical store and get them to demonstrate it it, if your happy get one from Amazon cheaper.
