Product Information
Take control of sound and vision with the DCR-VX2100. With its new Advanced HAD progressive scan CCD technology, illumination is improved dramatically, delivering superior low-light performance without the use of infrared technology. By increasing the CCD's sensitivity to light, clearer, brighter video with more lifelike color can be captured, even when recording in dimly lit environments. Its 58mm aspherical lens and duel-position neutral density filter minimize distortion from standard spherical lenses and compensate for varying lighting situations such as studio lights or direct sunlight. Additionally, the VX2100 includes a built-in lens cap to protect the enhanced optics package, manual audio control and PCM Digital Stereo Audio in 12 and 16-bit modes, a manual focus and manual zoom ring, built-in color bar generator, 16: 9 wide screen recording capability, intelligent accessory shoe, both 12x optical and 48x digital zoom, advanced optical SteadyShot picture stabilization and up to seven hours1 of operation with the optional NP-F960 InfoLithium battery.

    Sony VX2100

    I'm very pleased with this purchase. I like the Sony quality of cameras. Very Sturdy, and reliable. I bought this camera complete with everything. I previously owned a VX2000 and loved it. This one is a slight upgrade. The only drawback is that it has a previous resolution of 640p and all the latest cameras are on 1080p. I'm hoping they do not discontinue the Mini-DV tapes anytime soon. Other than that this camera is great to use with lots of features and manual tricks.
    I mainly use it to film surfing, and commercials. I did a wedding on it already and it turned out great. It has good low light capabilities with a variable exposure control or iris.

    One of a kind camcorder , as Sony will never make such a camera again .

    Yes, I would recommend this product to a friend.

    One of the very best camcorders I ever used . Especially good in low light situations , better the most of HD cameras . Easy to use and handle , just amazing camcorder . I sold both
    of my newly acquired HD cameras , and came back to my trusty all time favourite SONY VX 2100. Berry Graff .

    Good stuff

    The Sony 2100 is a very good camera I will recomend it. I love the way it works because I have been using it since 2000 and I have had no problem. It is very good in adjusting when there is light and when there is none.

    Great Camcorder

    The Sony VX2100 is a really nice camcorder. Works well in low light. Easy to use. Purchased it used but works like a champ. Works well with Microsoft Vista. Video transfer and editing a snap..
