Its a great camera for the money. However, I was surprised that there is no carry-case with it. The auto power off is a good feature to save battery, but if you have a tape inserted and you wanted to use it as a PC camera . . . its bit annoying that it shuts itself off after few minutes! If a power cord is plugged in, and the camera definitely can sense that, then why not keep an option of deactivating auto power off! And the 700X digital zoom, sounds great, but I haven’t been able to use it properly yet.

Well. . . the DCR-TRV330 was purchased for company use, we purchased the demo-model from CompUSA and paid [money] + tax for it; This seemed to be a great bargain since the DCR-TRV340 was selling new for [money]and seemed to have the same features. The decision to purchase it came from the high quality appearance of the unit (not a single scratch or smudge) and everything seemed to be in great mechanical working order. It also has the full warranty from the mfg. The sole intent of purchasing this unit is so that we can record video on our manufactured products, copy them onto our PC via the “fire-wire” and then burn the video onto CD-ROM media to be sent out to our prospective resellers and potential customers, to aid in the sell of our products. Thus far the unit seems to offer that capability but we still yet have to actually go through all the motions to see if it works out as we expect and intend. I will add that this forum of customer input has been a huge help in aiding our decision on purchasing the unit, in addition we did not really want to spend more than [money] on a unit because it did not really seem necessary based on what we really needed it for. Therefore I’m giving it a 4-star based on our visual inspection, standard features, ergonomic design and suspected capabilities. A 5-star will follow if it meets our expectation and a lower star will appear if it does not. Two notable things that I’m not particularly fond of its: #1 the zoom button is located on the top of the unit, making it sort-of-uncomfortable for a person with short index finger to manipulate the zoom comfortably. #2 I can’t figure out where the 25x zoom will come in handy if it’s going to display a grainy image when recording, but either it’s not really that big of a deal.

My review is for the Sony DCR-TRV340, but the picture and features of the 330 look awfully close. My wife and I were dragged kickin’ and screamin’ into the new and scary world of technology and I must say this Sony product has made it easy. We approached the camcorder counter with trepidation urged on with the primal need of expecting parents to capture a new life inside a TV box and I must say, Sony has made the experience rather pleasant. We’ve had this camera for about 3 months and I think have only begun to scratch the surface for what it can do. This may mean that there are way too many features here for what the average camcorder user may need. Here are the features that I like. . . the 25X digital zoom works like a charm and allowed us to film El Capitan in Yosemite and zoom into the rock climbers on the wall that was absolutely indiscernible to the naked eye. I also like the stop-photo feature that allows the camcorder to double as a digital camera. If you need photo quality digital imaging the resolution may not be enough, but it serves our needs to e-mail stills and post them to the web. Which brings me to yet another thumbs up feature: it is USB and firewall 1394 cable capable which makes it a home video producing machine when matched up with our DVD writer (it scares me that I know what those terms mean). Word of warning, with any digital camcorder purchase you have to buy a lot of accessories. Account for an extra couple hundred dollars to the cost of the camcorder alone. A salesman talked us into an extra memory stick, which I still haven’t found a good use for it yet. I suppose the Sony memory stick is handy to save JPEG’s directly to, but the firewall cable connection seems to be working just fine. If you don’t need the memory stick, you may opt for another Sony model to keep the price down. This model could easily omit the memory stick and frankly at this point, I can’t say I’d miss it. Pretty phenomenal camera and has been reliable so far. Well worth the money spent. Now where’s that slobbering poop-filled diaper wonder so I can get me some 25X zoomed in shots of his creative endeavors. . . ohhh I can even shoot it at night with the Sony Nightshot IR feature.
