Where video recording comes to ease
The Sony TRV480 Camcorder is a little bulky camcorder. It is quite difficult to keep this camcorder in your jacket pockets due to its large size. This solidly weighs 1 pound and 15 ounces but this weight is comparatively less for one hand video recording. The silver and grey plastic outer case gives a mere shooting effect while you record your special moments.
The buttons in this camcorder are very minimal. A record button above the LCD screen, a start/ stop button, zoom buttons and the mode switch button form the camcorders external operators. The camcorder is sanctified by touch screen LCD display. The operations on the touch screen are easy to use. The touch screen gives all the menu items clearly, and the menu appearance is customisable. You can set the frequently needed menu items to be displayed in the first few pages of the menu.
The easy mode in the camcorder automatically sets the presets and reduces the number of items in the main menu. The speciality in the Sony TRV480 camcorder is that, it is able to play 8mm Hi8 tapes. The camcorder has a 2.9 mega-pixel CCD sensor for taking better quality videos and still photos. The photo capturing is nourished by digital image stabilisation for withstanding the external vibrations and jerks. A maximum of 20 x digital zoom is supplied for capturing the longest object in perfect sharpness without blurring effects.
While taking still images, there are eight presets like Sepia, Solarize and some in-built shade effects. The infrared Super NightShot Plus feature in this camcorder holds out a great deed in dark situations. There is a built-in LED video light that aids in shooting in the dark. The auto-focus function in this camcorder holds good value in times of video recording.
When you plug in a USB cable to this Camcorder, you can use this camcorder as a Webcam for your PC. For storing your photos and videos, a Memory Stick Pro aids you in storing images and MPEG-1 movies. The videos that you take are stored in the 8mm Hi8 tapes. The battery in the camcorder holds a reasonable battery life for nearly one hour. For long hours of shooting the power AC adaptor lends it hands for battery recharging.
