Sony Handycam DCR-SR68 (Silver)

A tidy, capable camcorder from the tape-free era — the Sony Handycam DCR-SR68 in silver. A Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar lens, a huge 60x optical zoom and SteadyShot stabilisation make it a fuss-free grab-and-go video camera.

The dead internal HDD is disclosed up front and reflected in the price — pop in the included card and it shoots away happily. A lot of camcorder for the money.
