  • Sony XR-550 The Best Camcorder!

    I've owned several of these SONY HDR XR-550 Models since they were first being made... In 2016, they are still the BEST in its class. You can shoot all day or all week or all month without having to worry about Video storage space. And, you DO NOT have to purchase extra SD Cards that could run out on you in the middle of a shoot. I wish SONY would reintroduce a similar model with even a larger hard drive. The Wide Angel lens is just the Perfect Lens for shooting in virtually every environment... close up or distant. The XR-550 is the BEST!
