Sony HDR-PJ200

 

The Sony HDR-PJ200 is an entry-level digital camcorder with a fun and easy-to-use projector built right in, but video quality lags behind competitors.

Built-in projector. 25x optical zoom.

Soft, grainy video. Mediocre low-light performance.

Conclusions In the end, the Sony HDR-PJ200 delivers mediocre video performance, especially for its price. If you're going to watch the video you shoot on your big-screen HDTV, you should consider another model. Sure, you're not going to find true HD...

Built-in projector, great performance, light weight

Average stills resolution

Sony HDR - PJ200E Handycam is ideal for people who are not on a large budget and need a camcorder for daily family use. It is a great performer and gives you the convenience of shoot and project without having to spend on an additional projector.

Handycam with Projector a little disapointing

Great film and images

No special effects of earlier Handycam models, projector wastes battery life

WOW!

 

Right out of the box I was amazed with this camera! The menus are VERY easy to manuver on the touch screen and the quality is just incredible. The projector is the coolest thing I have seen having it built into the camera. After shooting a quick movie,...

Too many pros to list

Only "Con" I have is that this model has no internal hard drive
