Video camera advice/help - mrlayance - 08-10-2005

I have a question for you video camera geeks.

What do you guys think of the Sony CCD-TRV68 camera? I recently aquired one, needs a battery and cables etc. I can not really find any good info.

I'm not familiar with that camera specifically... but here's a PDF of the manual.

After a quick review of the specs, it looks like an OK camera. The only drawbacks that jump out at me are that it is analog, B&W viewfinder, and doesn't have a line in feature. Not big issues, it just requires a better video capture card to transfer to your computer, you can't transfer camera to camera, and you have to use the built-in camera mics.

My thoughts... please take them with a grain of salt as I seem to be pissing people off today without trying.
