The Endorsement Parents Look For

Go ahead and comment! Our bloggers want to hear from you.

When my first born son arrived, my husband and I made a point of capturing memories on video and keeping them. Little did we know that 3 short years later, our little genius would figure out how to erase all those precious memories with the touch of a button. Memories lost forever! The problem with camcorders today is that they have a large capacity to store videos without having to download or export them. So, like many people do, we kept adding to our video collection without ever backing them up!

I found with the new Sony Full HD Camcorder this step makes it easy to export because it has a built-in USB-cable that allows for easy transmission from camera to computer. As well as, a removable SD Card for simple sharing. These simple features would have saved my files in the past. The truth is, I like many, am lazy and do not have much time to sit and fidget with a device for hours. The most amazing part of this camera? Still remains, the projector feature. Another feature that Sony has come up with to make the lives of busy families a little bit easier! Less cords= 1 Happy Mama ;)

Simple memories like my boys playing Barbies with their father, are the memories that I will cherish forever!

Some key features to remember when purchasing this AMAZING Camcorder:
Why Chose a HandyCam?

The Best Video
When shooting an important moment that you’d like to preserve for the future, you need the best video and sound. Handycam® camcorders feature “Exmor R”™ CMOS sensor delivers great videos in low-light and advanced features like focus tracking, face detection and smile shutter, Up to 60x optical zoom – that’s 60 times more zoom than a cell phone, Optical SteadyShot™ with Active Mode lets you say goodbye to shaky video and Uncompressed Full HD 1080 60p video

True Audio
Sound is just as important as video when it comes to preserving your memories. Handycam® camcorders feature Sony sound expertise: 5.1-channel surround sound, S-Master audio, Built-in zoom microphone, Wind-noise reduction, and Optional wireless microphones for crystal clear audio up to 100m away

Better By Design
Handycam® camcorders are designed to shoot video without compromising other features: Long battery life (up to 11 hours), Large touch-screen LCD, Intuitive feature navigation, Shoot still photos while shooting video, and GPS with in-camcorder maps, geotagging

Share Easily
Sony has incredible built-in features to make sharing so easy: Built-in projector lets everyone enjoy on-the-spot sharing (image projected up to 60” diagonally), Highlight playback to enjoy video clips quickly and easily, PlayMemories™ software provides easy online sharing through sites like YouTube™ and Facebook™, Built-in USB cable for easy download and charge, Enjoy direct playback from HDD, One touch DVD burn (optional DVDirect), and HDMI cable included in the box for immediate sharing on an HDTV

Of course, there are also those memories that are much more elaborate that every parent wants to capture on film. Like, my son’s Junior Kindergarten graduation. Here is a snipet of the ceremony. Again, memories that with time will fade, but because they are captured on video, will now last a lifetime!

    Taping my son’s 1st experience on a beach when he was 18 months old, Franken-stepping his way between the big lake and small little runoff pool, giggling and laughing the whole time.

    10. Natasha McKee said on Jul 9th, 2012 at 4:54 pm

    My favourite is my daughter’s birth on video. I NEVER watch it, and that’s obviously NOT something I’d ever share with anyone, but I’m so happy I have it!

    My favourite moment on video is my oldest falling asleep standing up, its 5 minutes of him buckling and then cathcing himself and my hubby giggling in the background. The one moment I wish we had have caught were the first steps for both my kids, our video camera was in for repair.

    16. Melissa said on Jul 9th, 2012 at 5:44 pm

    My favorite video is when my daughter was having ice cream in front of the TV and whenever there was music she started dancing sitting down on the chair…it was really cute.

    17. Sayyeda Hussaini said on Jul 9th, 2012 at 6:09 pm

    My favourite video is of my daughters first laugh. The moment I wish I had caught was her birth.

    18. Elizabeth L said on Jul 9th, 2012 at 8:37 pm

    The best memory I have on camera is my Navy League Cadets preforming theyre first drill competition. I have no single moment I most regret missing, but regret missing several moments in my little brothers youth.

    My favourite moments are the early ones of my son on video. Wished I had more of my daughter but we went through a loss in the family after she was born and were busy.

    22. Tara said on Jul 10th, 2012 at 12:05 am
