Sony DCR-HC96

CNET has a review of the Sony Handycam DCR-HC96 and writes, “the Sony Handycam DCR-HC96 delivers excellent video quality in both dim and bright light; it’s very crisp, with rich detail evident in materials that many other cameras have difficulty with, such as hair, grass, and cloth. Overall, color was very realistic, with only bright greens showing any signs of unnatural saturation. Outdoor shots showed no graininess or artifacts. … Photo quality is also better than a camcorder typically produces. The DCR-HC96’s 3-megapixel images look sharp and detailed, with accurate color reproduction and a low level of noise. However, the images are somewhat soft, and with a lack of detail when magnified, they don’t stand up well to significant cropping. Also, shooting moving subjects is unpredictable–while some shots look great, others are blurred.”
