Sony Handycam HDR-PJ790V Review

 

With its built-in projector and 96GB of internal memory, the PJ790V may be too much of a good thing.

We won't argue the fact that the HDR-PJ790V is a great camcorder, but the lack of improvement when it comes to performance is frustrating. If you have a Sony HDR-CX760V, HDR-PJ760V, or an HDR-PJ710V from last year, then you shouldn't bother upgrading....

96GB Full HD Camcorder with Projector

 

I just bought it last week. Was so excited to use for my wife school awards ceremony. First day open, the lenses was out of focus when record. Lenses itself keeps running like trying to focus subjects... then go blurry!!!

Great camera so far

 

I've only had this camera for a day or two but so far I just love it. The quality is the best I've seen in a while, really easy to use too. The projector is great and one of the best qualitys is the anti-shake feature in the camera. The camera...
