The Sony Handycam HDR-HC3 is a very appealing high definition camcorder, recording directly to MiniDV tapes to ensure easy editing and high-quality results. The HC3's compact size will make shooting your subjects a very comfortable experience, and the superior video quality of the 1080i videos cannot be beat. The camera can also be used in "DV" mode, which allows for standard resolution recordings.
