Canon DC220 review

Canon's mid-range DC220 is a feature-rich DVD camcorder. Controlled with a tiny, well-located joystick, you can choose from program, shutter-priority or night exposure modes and a wealth of white balance settings. With a 35x optical zoom lens and strong image stablisation, this camera impresses Read more

Sony Handycam DCR-DVD205 review

If you're shopping around for a low-end DVD camcorder without too many superficial features, the DCR-DVD205 could be the solution. While it's lacking in some basic connections, such as USB, and its image quality is no more than mediocre, it does offer widescreen video and reasonably fast autofocus Read more

Canon DC10 review

Canon's DC10 has an almost identical design to its sibling, the DC20 -- the latter benefits from a higher resolution CCD for stills photography and a night mode. If you're used to MiniDV, you might find the DC10's footage disappointing, but casual users may well find the convenience of straight-to-DVD recording more than compensates Read more

Hitachi DZ-BX35E review

Like most low-end camcorders, the Hitachi DZ-BX35E, which includes a 25x optical zoom lens and sub-megapixel CCD, isn't loaded with fancy features, but it's intuitive to use and ergonomically sound. Its image quality isn't the best in its class, though, and you can get a better Hitachi for not much more money Read more

Hitachi DZ-GX3200E review

The DZ-3200E offers only two megapixels, compared to its big brother DZ-3300E's three, but with its video almost as pleasing and at £100 less, this could be the budget choice for those looking for a compact DVD camcorder with 10x optical zoom Read more

Hitachi DZ-GX3300E review

Hitachi's DZ-GX3300E won't blow you away with its middle-of-the-road image quality, but a quick start-up time and the ability to edit video in the camera might appeal. Similarly, the camera's 10x optical zoom, 3-megapixel CCD and fairly standard feature set will neither wow nor disappoint Read more

Canon DC20 review

The DC20 offers a f/1.8, 10x optical zoom lens, coupled with a single CCD whose image quality leaves something to be desired, particularly in low light. However, as with most DVD camcorders, what you sacrifice in features you regain in simplicity and hassle-free operation Read more

Hitachi DZ-GX20E review

Hitachi's DZ-GX20E offers speedy start-up, solid video quality in a variety of lighting conditions and the ability to edit video in-camera. With a 10x optical zoom, a 2-megapixel CCD, a basic set of features and decent overall performance, it's not a standout. But it's worth considering if you want the convenience of DVD recording at a reasonable price Read more
