Digital-Camera Reviews

Canon made for the EOS 20D. Expensive camera, so why risk using cheap batteries? The battery has a long life use.

My original Canon battery that came with the camera has a distressing habit of dying after ~250 pictures (I have a 1 GB memory card that can take many more), so I had to figure out a way of charging it whereever I went. I had thought that a non-Canon battery, almost by definition, would be worse than the original. But, no - this one is great. It lasts longer - I havent formally tested it to see how long it lasts, but it lasted for >320 pictures on one occasion, so is clearly better. Carrying this is better than carrying a charger with you on long trips.

Very compact and quick charge. Excellent product

works great with my hdr-hc3. at a full charge it says 190 minutes compared to 120 minutes with the standard battery. also note that this battery is exactly the same size as the battery it comes with but it just lasts longer. if i didnt already get this one, i would get the even longer lasting battery

i am very happy with this camera. i get some frizzy picture once or twice but all most every picture looks shape and clear.

There is an old story about the engineers at SONY who were told to develop a transistor radio that would fit in a shirt pocket. When it was time to show the first working model, the engineers had shirts made with slightly larger than normal pockets.

Since then, Sony has become the experts at putting lots of features in a small package. The T-series continues the "shirt pocket" design philosophy, and the T-9 brings much extra functionality.

I was particularly impressed with the movie function, in the FINE mode it can record 12 minutes of high quality 640 x 480 video on a 1 Gig memory stick. My first digital camera, the Sony MAVICA, took 640 X 480 stills! I found this a great feature in the discos, where the lighting is extremely intermittant, I just shoot 30 seconds or so of video, then pull the best still frames for my website using SONY VEGAS movie editing software.

Another advantage for me is the large image size. I can crop the huge 2816 X 2112 images significantly and still have native 800 X resolution for my web galleries.

I also like that an external charger comes with the camera, although not as cool as a docking station (which came standard with the T-1, and is an available accessory with the T-9) is more convenient because having a standby battery in the charger can allows me to charge one battery while shooting with the other. The octopus cable is a bit unwieldy, but makes it very simple to playback movies and stills on any monitor.

Be sure to buy at least two 1 or 2 Gigabyte memory sticks and one or two extra batteries when you buy your camera, only one battery is included.

My biggest problem so far has been getting my finger in the picture, this is because of my style of holding the camera in both hands. The T-9 is so thin that it is very easy to get a picture of your digits. (hence the term "digital photographs")

The only real gripe is that the manual does not repeat the information in the Quick Start paper, so you do not have a single reference book for all functions.

There is an underwater case available. I would recommend this in any beach or boating situation, not just underwater. A SINGLE DROP of salt water can completely destroy any electronic device if it gets inside. The other danger is leaving in a hot car. Our personal experience: 1 camera (a casio) destroyed by a drop of salt water, another (a sony) blinded by being left in a car in the Las Vegas Sun.

I highly recommend this camera.

This is my second digital camera, so, I had some idea of what features to look for,but, I'm not a professional photographer. I wanted, I thought, a lot from this camera. It needed to record good enough data to be reproduced on my laptop drive on promotional literature for my customers and myself. At the same time, I travel by plane every week,and, smaller and lighter is better. Therefore, it also had to be small enough to fit in my shirt pocket. This is where you're starting to ask a lot. Then, I found out about image stabilization and realized that, as small as this camera is, this would be an important feature. Small cameras move in your hand easily. I decided that to produce quality enlargements of the size I intend, I needed minimum 6 MP. Now, when you make a list that says 6 MP, pocket sized, image stabilization, minimum 2.5 inch LCD screen, and plenty of available accessories, you eliminate most of the cameras out there. I went down to a camera store and handled the Casios, Olympus, etc., and as soon as I handled the Sony, I knew. The fit and finish is superior to the Casio and Olympus, in my opinion, and, since I've had the camera, about a week, I've been pleased and surprised at the quality of the camera and the photo's it takes. The T-30 is now the latest in this model-line, but, is much larger in the hand. The Casio and Olympus are both less expensive and about the same size. But if you want a true pocket-sized camera that takes excellent photo's, and, you are willing to pay a little more to have something that continues to impress you each time you use it, I recommend the Sony T-9. I like mine a lot.

My wife and myself did a research for almost 3 months before deciding to buy Sony DCR DVD 405.
We went through comparing Mini DV Camcorders with Mini DVD ones and then in Mini DVDs brands and finally in brands the model. My requirement was an easy to shoot quality videos and download on to computer without much hassle and sony 405 proved to be better than my expectations and need.
I would strongly recommend this for guys who do not want to spend too much time in getting their special moments downloaded on to computer and then convert into DVDs. Sure gives quality picture and downloading and editing is easy and fun.

This handycam is very easy to use and takes great video's and still pictures.
I would have loved a little more zoom, but this works just fine. It is a bit pricy though !

This camcorder works exactly as specified by sony. We had no problem getting it started within a few minutes of opening the box. Touch screen controls work very well.

We also love the camera on it. It still has a 2 second delay after pushing the button to snap the picture that our last digital camera had but it is very easy to operate and switch back and forth from camera to camcorder.

The discs are a little bit short on time at around 23- 28 minutes maximum depending on how many times you stop and restart recording. But they are so easy to fill up and take straight to the dvd player or computer that it makes up for this shortcoming.

We love this camcorder and highly recommend the purchase. Amazon shipped it out quickly and we had a great experience buying this item.

If you see this product in your country, check if it is the same model (even if they say BC-TRP). The Argentina version comes with an AC cable instead of foldable plug. If you want to save place in your bag, better get the USA version and an adapter for the plug otherwise you have to carry the cable.

The same happens with model BC-TR1.

As a new owner of a Sony Handycam 26 this was a must have accessory! NO cords, just plug directly into the wall and have it readily accessible the next time you need a powered up battery. The unit is no bigger than one of those plug in air freshners, it stands flush to the wall and has a ready light easily visible. The swivel prong plugs are super feature if you are using the bottom outlet for something else and need to swivel the unit sideways instead of up and down. The prong plugs also fold flush with the unit when not is use! This helps to make the unit even more compact and also no sticking out prongs to scratch the covers of your mini DV's or camera itself! The charger stores super easy because there's no cord to wind or bulk up in your travel bag! YEAH! Super design, super compact, and easy to use.

RECOMMENDED!

I must admit, you get ALOT for your money when you buy this mp3 player. I have several videos already loaded on which were very easy thanks to the media converter (included cd) screen is excellent- bright and large. Video and sound quality is excellent, although when a song starts off quietly, you can hear a rattling and electrical sounding in the backround which you can't hear when the song gets louder. very sleek and thin design, yet not too fragile like the nano. Scratch resistance is EXCELLENT- a major problem in the nanos.
the problems i have had with mine:
when i press the right arrow to go to the next song, sometimes it takes 2 or more seconds to show what song is playing and can freeze up. mine has frozen up 3 times. in whicih i have responded by updating the firmware. the firmware is nice because it doesn't make you delete all the songs off your player.
ONE BIG PROBLEM I HAD- one time i went to the music menu to select a song from the "songs"section when i had chosen my song, it COMPLETELY FROZE UP. i could not press any buttons, not even the power switch. I tried connecting the usb to my computer but nothing worked. the player didnot turn off until the battery died. (overnight)
the next day i charged it up and it worked fine- no problems since.
the chargeable battery is good. it is easy to charge it- just connect the usb and leave it alone for a good hour and a half.


it is a good choice to buy this player, but, DO NOT BUY unless you buy a warranty. you will end up losing alot of money.
i have a 2 year unconditional unlimited warranty, and i will be returning this product for the SAME thing. i think mine might be defected. but i will remainloyal to sandisk as I have in the past. (this is my 5th sandisk mp3player)

good luck and i hope you have great success with this great product!! :)

This player is quite good with a good deal of space for the price and is expandable which is a good thing. A few bugs in the firmware that are supposedly being addressed.

It's cheaper than the iPod I used to own, has many more functions, and has really high quality for its price and size.
It takes extra microSD's so in a few years when 2 GB might not be enough I could get extra memory.

This kit is great. Came with the leather case which fit the camera great, extra battery which is always a plus, and the neck strap which is very handy for me and works VERY WELL. The only issue about this was the leather case only fit the camera and nothing else. Wasn't able to hold a extra memory card or battery.

Good item for your Canon SD camera. There are times when I would prefer something more rugged, but when not dressed casually these items look better. As others have said, it would be nice if they had figured out a way to have it hold an extra battery or extra memory.

Works with Rhapsody To Go. This was the main reason why I purchased this model. Sound: pretty good, however not as good as players from Creative Labs. Screen: Not very ergonomic, but readable. I would like to adjust scrolling speed, but not possible. Equilizer: 5 standard settings + custom. Works pretty well. Tuner: Pretty sophisticated, with auto scan. Mirophone: available, but I haven't tested. Battery: standard alkaline AAA lasts for me about a week, NiMH 900 mAh lasts forever. Cons: a) looks ugly, b) battery cover loose and must be fastened with Scotch tape from day one. I checked other players owned by friends; all have the same problem. Summarizing: EXTREMELY good value for the monies assuming that you are not obliged to show up with most expensife, fashionable and up-to-date gear

received an excellent deal and the player works great and has 2 gigs of storage

I have had this mp3 player for several months and I love it!! I haven't had any of the problems mentioned in other reviews. It is very durable. I have dropped it several times, even spilled a soda on it and it still works perfectly.

As far as the problems with playlists go, the easiest way to set up a playlist on this player is to set it up on your music service before you sync it up. Then just go to playlist in the menu and find your artist or album.

I would definitely buy this again
