Sony TRV240 Digital8 Camcorder -- Hi-Value Digital Video

Date of Review:  Jul 18, 2002
The Bottom Line: "For a small increase over the cheapest model, the TRV140, you get a big increase in useful features."
Review:

You won't find a better deal for the money in a digital camcorder than Sony's Digital8-format DCR-TRV240.

If you don't need a digital camcorder, you can get a fine analog camcorder for less, such as Sony's Hi8 CCD-TRV108 which...

DCR-TRV240 vs. DCR-TRV140

Date of Review:  May 2, 2002
The Bottom Line: The TRV240 is a very good digital camcorder at a reasonable price. The TRV140 is also very good if you don't need backward compatibility.
Review: I own two of the Sony Digital 8 camcorders, the DCR-TRV240 and the DCR-TRV140. Since the DCR-TRV140 isn't listed here on epinions, I will try to make some comparisons of these two camcorders for those of you trying to decide which one to buy.
