It's very cool but with two HUGE drawbacks not included that are found
on Sony Mini DV Camcorders:

No IEEE 1394 Firewire Link, therefore, no way of transferring MD Discam
Digital Video to any kind of digital tape for making copies or
assembling MPEG2 quality movies of longer than 20 minutes in length
(assuming you use the variable bit function and it records the longest
possible video on disc-otherwise, anywhere between 10 to 20 minutes.)
Totally useless for semi-professional or professional purposes except as
a still image camera.

No ability to dub a second audio track in. You can add an audio track in
later but you can't add it to your original audio track without erasing
it, no two track audio-and you know it should be able to do this.

Another drawback about this camera, found on most Sony Mini DV and
Digital 8 camcorders, but not the MD Discam: No Nightshot.

Come on, Sony, you can do better!
