This way, you will have an opinion about their qualities. And more importantly, you can skim through some reviews that will make you more knowledgeable about these products.

Our Sony is about 10 months old, and has worked fine until tonight. I can't get an image to show up on the viewer, the LCD screen or on a recorded playback. All I see is a grainy screen. My son used this for a school project, and I'm wondering if he messed up a setting. I tried fiddling around with them, and also doing a "reset", but nothing has helped. Does anyone have any suggestions on what I should try? Thanks so much!

I am trying to burn DVD 's from my nieces JVC camcorder (mini DV tapes ) that she had taken of her wedding. My first idea was to buy a DVD recorder from QVC (Toshiba D-R400 for $80 ) but now I am having second thoughts as it is near impossible to figure out all the instructions in the phone book sized instructional manual !!! I did manage to do a DVD from an old VHS tape but I would like more editing options. My second option would be to download to my Dell computer which has a 80gig harddrive with 70% space available. When I ordered my Dell I asked for the Movie Maker and the Picture it programs. I assumed that if I got the Movie Maker Program the computer would also have a Firewire card to make it work. How can I tell if I have the card? Is it difficult to install a Firewire card if I need one? Whats a good brand ? And will these...

It is good underwater, including saltwater. It has a screen that is almost 3" and saves to an sd card. Have any of you seen or heard about this yet? They say it is around $300.00 and being that I like to scubadive, I thought it would be a good idea, but would like some opinions before dropping a couple of hundred dollars. Any info is greatly appreciated!

The camera is in great shape however the only problem is that it will not display the "video" on my TV. The audio feed goes to the TV just fine. Also, the video plays back on the LCD screen without any problems.... it just won't display on my TV. Here's what I've tried so far: I've tried it on three different TVs using the RCA cord that came with the camera and a brand new RCA cord. I've ensured all my connections to the TV and/or VCR are correct. All combinations of connections produce the same results... audio playback is good on the TV but still no video. Is there a setting on the camera that would make a difference or is this indicative of a "video output" problem from the camera? Again, the LCD playback feature is just fine, but it's not coming through the RCA output.
