Customer Review: Sony DCR-HC27… Top Quality…
I am going away in October 07 for 3 Weeks to Thailand, I am sick of looking at “Still Image photos” so I decided to get a New Digital Video Camcorder, I have looked at various models “Samsung, Jvc, Hitachi, plus more” but the Sony DCR-HC27 sounded the best one plus the reviews on Amazon really helped me to choose the right product for me.

When the Package came it was a big box because I orderd other thing’s with it, a Spare Battery FH-50 it’s not as strong as the Battery which comes with the Camera (FH-70) but great to have as a Stand by Battery if the other runs out of Charge, it comes with a Charger to plug into the Camera to charge the Battery. I also orderd the Bag which you can buy together with this Item at the moment on Amazon’s page, the Bag is fantastic I can fit everything inside it.

The camera is really small and very comfortable in the hand. I’m sure this will take some great Video Shots of my Holiday to Thailand,

Thank you Amazon & Reviewers for helping me choose the right product

Fantastic Camcorder… Buy one, Plus AMAZON is the cheapest place for a Brand New one

AUGUST 9.2″ Digital Freeview and Analogue TV with Sharp 16:9 TFT LCD Widescreen
August DA920A is high quality digital and analogue TV designed for you to watch Freeview TV where the signal is strong (a rooftop aerial should be used in some regions) and meanwhile guarantee to receive traditional analogue channels everywhere. It should be an ideal TV for Kitchen and bedrooms. With an optional external battery box (supplied separately with 10×2500mAh rechargeable AA batteries at ?22.49), you can watch TV while boating, camping, at beach or in your garden. It can transfer Freeview TV to a larger screen TV as a set-top box, display pictures as a digital photo frame and also be used as a high quality monitor for a video player and game console. Please note that there may be difficulty to receive freeview TV signal by the included portable antenna in some areas where the signal is not sufficiently strong. This is due to that the freeview service (www.freeview.co.uk) in the UK does not fully support portable TV antenna at present. The reception will be improving along with the progress of Digital Switchover Program (http://www.digitaltelevision.gov.uk). A signal amplifier or booster may improve reception capability in regions where the signal is marginally strong. (Please note that reception capability may also be affected by various factors such as proximity to freeview TV/digital radio transmitters, tall building structures, thick walls, ceilings and etc.). A rooftop TV aerial may be required to watch freeview channels in regions where the signal is insufficient for a portable antenna.
Customer Review: Brilliant TV!
It is a brilliant TV, I am really pleased with it. It can tune both analogue and freeview TV channels. Sharp picture quality, smart and slim design, perfectly for my caravan.
Customer Review: Beware sound quality
The sound quality is rather poor - very ‘tinny’. Also, I haven’t yet figured out how to turn off the teletext sub-titles without putting the menu language into something other than English - the process in the manual for turning off sub-titles doesn’t seem to work.

Used Price: ?117.97
Customer Review: Pretty good but where’s the HDMI?
Thanks to reviewer ‘Ricko’ for the advice on setting up. Got it working fine pretty quickly. It is slow to start up but once going is very good. I use the synchro record feature for transferring from Sky+ to HDD then onto DVD. Best to transfer overnight when Sky+ is not being used though. Not sure what the HDMI interface in the manufacturers review is. I expected an HDMI output on the machine but there is not one. Buy something else if you want to connect to the TV by HDMI. Picture quality is good so maybe is something built in to the machine? Other than that I’m still getting used to all the features but out of the box set up is fine for most.
Customer Review: Sony DVD Recorder
I must agree with the other reviewers. Sony manual is rubish. The recorder works well and is fairly straight forwards to use, but we have found some annoying limitations with it when used with SKY. The programme guide does not work with only a sky box - even though the manual implies that it may work. We can’t pick up terrestrial TV due to surrounding hills. We bought this as an alternative to SKY+, but without the programme guide, the system is complicated to use - my wife hates it. Also if the kids touch the sky box - after you have carefully set up the set to record - ie turn the sky box off or put a different channel on during your recording - then you will endure the frustration of having only half the film recorded. In summary if you enjoy a challenge, don’t share your sky system with anyone and want the flexibility then this box will work well - else pay the ?[...] for Sky +.
