You are bidding on a legendary Sony TRV-900 3CCD MiniDV Camcorder 4:3/16:9 Switchable

This is the European PAL version. UK Postage only

These camcorders were one of Sony's greatest hand held achievements. I have witnessed these machines being used day in, day out, relentlessly for 5 years straight without mechanical failures or even bits breaking off. They delivery what you would expect from a Sony piece of kit. These retailed at over £1500 new and enabled budget film makers and the like to produce stunning quality videos with professional features at the touch of a button, such as manual white balance, gain, manual/ auto focus, manual/ auto sound levels, colour bars, shutter, exposure and so on. It also has a time-lapse feature which allows you to record a certain number of frames, over certain time intervals (called interval record by Sony). Sony had to back pedal with this model as it was stepping on the feet of the PD150/170 market, as it does everything the PD range does, but at a lesser price, so the advanced features were either slowly lost or made very difficult to use in the TVR950 then the TRV1000.

Benefits
Summary:
3.5 massive TFT Screen
3CCD Sensors
Firewire in/ out (
Ideal for editing)
Manually adjustable features:
White balance
Gain
Audio
Iris/ Exposure
Shutter
16:9 Anamorphic
Fully adjustable Interval Record

So what you have here is an ideal camcorder for a student or new film maker who wants to learn the ropes, but who doesn't have £2000 to spend on a PD170 kit. This camcorder has been well used, however still has a lot more to give. It accepts the massive capacity N series batteries used on the PD170, which can give it a life of over 8hrs! It has a massive 3.5 inch tft display and Firewire in & out (very hard or expense to find these features now). Ideal for using as a deck when editing. Also if you want even better sound, connect a Beach Box for XLR connections to make it even more professional.

What you will receive:
Sony TRV900 Camcorder
Carry Case
Power Supply
AV cable
Sony N series battery


Please bid with confidence, check my feedback. Good luck.
