Very easy to use. Very easy to access menu for any changes. So far used it on holiday and had excellent results just as a point and shoot sort of camera. But there is a whole host of other facilities to use
Not found any so far. Still shots are rather poor being only 1 mega pixel but I bought it as a video . I have a still camera for those images

Good image quality, for a tape-based camcorder, when the light is good. Sound reasonable. Works on an apple mac
Image quality deteriorates in low light, with marked 'noise' and artefacts. Auto-focusing slow

Simple and affordable DCR-HC62E is perfect for video fun. It offers Megapixel quality movies with powerful 25x Carl Zeiss lens. A touchscreen LCD and a high-quality widescreen color viewfinder make it easy to use. Widely available DV tapes make a great choice if you're into editing your own shots. DCR-HC62E also features DV (i.Link) input function for video editing with connected PC.

MiniDV camcorders dominated the market for many years, so Sony has had ample time to tweak its designs. Because of this it's not surprising that the DCR-HC62E is compact, simple to use and comfortable to hold.

Excellent touchscreen interface, Thin, lightweight body, Impressive video quality, 1-megapixel still photos
Slightly underpowered 25X optical zoom, Requires Memory Stick flash cards
While both the Sony Handycam DCR-HC62 and JVC GR-D850 are almost equal in terms of video quality, the nearly $70 price difference between JVC's model and Sony's HC62 can be attributed to the latter's advanced LCD touchscreen. Consumers need to decide...
