Sony DCR SR100

LaptopMag has a review up of the Sony DCR-SR100 and writes, “Performance is initially promising but ultimately inconsistent. When the camera and subjects were relatively static, our footage looked exceptionally crisp with excellent color fidelity. Low-light performance was also admirable, with noise and grain not significantly marring the image until light levels dipped below 20 Lux. … As camera movement was introduced, however, limitations of the DCR-SR100’s MPEG-2 encoding became apparent. Artifacts appeared on contrast lines and at the edges of moving objects. When camera movement was combined with overly detailed frames or complex textures, the artifacts were severe enough to be distracting.”
