Video Quality Test of Sony DCR-SX22E against Sony HDR-CX260VE, Nikon Coolpix 120L or Nokia Pureview 808 clearly reveal that video made through Nikon Coolpix 120L or Nokia Pureview 808 has better quality and bright colours. But, Video from Sony DCR-SX22E and Sony HDR-CX260VE has better audio qualities and ultra portability. We can record video easily at maximum zoom of Sony HDR-CX260VE or Sony DCR-SX22E.
Our Review
Positive Point :
This camera is very light with the battery. It has ease of controls, even though its with a joystick but it can be better to have 3 inch Touch LCD screen (Like Sony DCR-SX45E). The display of this handycam can be rotated 180 degrees vertically. It has provision to set it up on a tripod. The audio quality of video shot by Sony DCR-SX22E is satisfactory.
Negative Point
The zoom of Sony DCR-SX22E is good but at the extremes the video gets very shaky. The clarity of video is good but the videos look slightly faded. It requires proper lighting at dark conditions. This camcorder does not charge of USB cable therefore charging and data transfers do not occur simultaneously. The ports for USB is in the inside at LCD display area, hence the LCD screen of this camcorder has to keep the display open while data transfers through USB Port.
Overall it is great product for price and gives better result for this price product. (Entry level Handycam)
