Sony Handycam DCR-HC38 News Release Summary:
LAS VEGAS (CES Booth #14200), Jan. 7, 2007 – Sony has a camcorder to match your personal video-making style with its new line of DVD and Mini DV tape Handycam® camcorders.

“Our new models feature enhancements and sophisticated technologies across the line to deliver benefits to satisfy the varying recording, sharing and archiving needs of different customers, depending on their preferences,” said Linda Vuolo, director for camcorder products at Sony Electronics.

Exceptional Performance on the Digital Tape Front

With such a wide variety of DV editing software in the marketplace, serious video editors are drawn to mini DV tape camcorders. Sony is introducing three tape-based models with feature sets to suit beginners and advanced camcorder users.

Meanwhile, the new DCR-HC38 camcorder has a powerful 40x optical zoom and wide viewing angle, and an on-screen usage guide that explains the menu functions.

All of the new mini DV models deliver a combination of Carl Zeiss optics, Sony's high-resolution CCD imaging technology, and long battery life. For instance, the DCR-HC28 unit can record up to 14 hours with an optional FH100 battery, which is compatible with all of Sony’s 2007 camcorders and backwards compatible with select 2006 models.

The DCR-HC38 will also be available in February for about $330.

All of the new camcorders will be available online at sonystyle.com, at Sony Style retail stores (www.sonystyle.com/retail) around the country, and at authorized dealers nationwide. Pre-orders will begin online on Jan. 8 at www.sonystyle.com/handycam. Sony’s +R dual layer DVD discs are available now for about $12.
