Negative Positive
Title: Poor reliability
Review: The camcorder is nice, with accpetable picture quality. However mine started giving error c:31:42 just after 7 months, though I haven't used much. I checked the mannual and it states that the error codes starting with the letter 'c' can be fixed by users.I followed the possible solutions but wasn't able too fix the problem. I called sony they told me that it needs service and they will charge US $216 for labor.This is totally unacceptable for a camcorder which is worth around $330.I just can't believe that a company like sony is charging 2/3 of the original price to fix an error which according to their own mannual can be fixed by users. I would now think twice before buying any sony product.My advice is to buy an extended warranty when you buy a sony camcorder or look for a differnt brand like samsung etc.
