Sony DCR-DVD810 DVD/flash memory/Memory StickĀ® camcorder

The DCR-DVD810 is Sony's most versatile standard-definition camcorder yet. It lets you capture video and photos on mini DVD discs, a built-in 8GB flash memory, or optional Memory Stick® Duo™ cards. And a host of shooting features let you get the best shot possible — whether you're recording a baseball game at dusk or your child's first steps in bright daylight.

Plentiful recording options, including in-camera dubbing
Capture videos straight to mini DVDs for quick playback on most newer DVD players or PC DVD drives. Record photos and movies to the camcorder's built-in memory, which can hold up to five hours of video footage depending on your recording setting. Or use compact Memory Sticks for additional storage. You can even create mini DVD copies of movies stored in the cam's memory, without having to connect your PC.

Sharp footage and wraparound sound
This camcorder features a high-quality Carl Zeiss® lens, and its 25X optical zoom brings faraway subjects closer. Image stabilization smoothes out shaky footage. Widescreen recording mode lets you capture video and photos that fill the wider screen of an HDTV without stretching or distorting the picture. You can also record your movies in full Dolby® Digital surround sound and play them back on a home theater system to experience full, engaging audio. And the 'DVD810's high-speed USB interface gives you a convenient way to transfer your videos and photos to a PC.
