60GB Hard Disk Drive
A built-in 60GB hard disk drive can record and store up to almost 30 hours of video footage in LP mode, or up to almost 10 hours in HQ mode. You'll also enjoy peace of mind with HDD Smart Protection which prevents any recorded video and images from being lost if the camcorder is accidentally dropped.

60X Optical/2000X Digital Zoom
Ideal for sporting events, wildlife, or distance shooting, 60X optical zoom brings you closer to the action, so you can capture extremely tight shots, even from far away. In addition, digital zoom interpolation means that extreme digital zooming (up to 2000X) is clearer, with less distortion than previous types of digital zooms.

Hybrid with Movie Recording on Memory Stick
Hybrid recording technology lets you record video directly to either the 60GB hard disk drive or removable Memory Stick PRO Duo™ media (sold separately). You can even select from various dubbing functions to easily copy video or still images from the HDD to the Memory Stick® media—without using a PC.

Memory Stick PRO Duo™ Media Slot
Capture still images and video directly to Memory Stick PRO Duo™ media (sold separately) making it easy and convenient to transfer or enjoy your video and still images on compatible Memory Stick PRO Duo device.

Easy Dubbing with New DVDirect®
DVD Burner

This camcorder supports a direct connection with the VRD-P1 DVDirect DVD burner (sold separately), which allows you to burn DVDs directly from your camcorder without the need for a PC. And because the VRD-P1 is powered by your camcorder, you don't need an additional AC power cable.

Easy On by Opening LCD
Power on your camcorder by simply opening the LCD display.

Dolby® Digital 5.1 Surround with
Zoom Mic.

Capture audio the way it's heard in real life—from all around you. This camcorder supports 5.1 channels of surround sound so that playback on your home theater will sound as realistic as possible. The built-in zoom mic records the audio of your faraway subject as you zoom in on them.
