The Sony DCR-VX2100, a upgrade of the DCR-VX2000?

Date of Review:  Apr 5, 2004
The Bottom Line: The Sony VX-2100 is a camera which breathtaking video quality and unsurpassed capability is ideal for a professional videographer or an individual who desires for nothing but the best.
Review: The Sony DCR-VX2100, is simply an upgrade from its once popular 2nd generation Sony DCR-VX2000. The Sony DCR-VX2000 was introduced in summer of 2000, and was a dramatic improvement from the 1st generation Sony DCR-VX1000. Sony improved the VX-2000...

Sony's Wow! VX-2100 great video camera!

Date of Review:  Jun 8, 2006
The Bottom Line: I highly recommend this video camera to professionals, or people who take videos seriously.
Review: I want to give a rave review on the Sony's VX-2100. I've had it for over a year now, and can say it's definitely one of the best dv professional camcorders out there. And for about $2200 it's really got great value!

I've made a lot of...

Amazing camera, very versatile and tough

Date of Review:  Feb 16, 2006
The Bottom Line: This is an awesome product. The price can be scary but you get your moneys worth in the picture/sound quality, and the DURABILITY.
Review: I purchased my DCR VX-2100 used from a buddy and we have filmed countless hours on this thing and it looks and sounds as good as ever, and i did i mention its tough as hell. We dropped it lens first onto pavement out of ford f-150 with a 6 inch...

Good enough to make TV commercials

Date of Review:  Oct 1, 2006
Review: Generally an excellent camera for almost any use. At full zoom - use of tripod stand is a must. Long battery life, quick and easy to shoot with and excellent quality pics, and in auto mode is very forgiving if you tend to shoot towards the sun or...

pro level video as slightly less than pro costs

Date of Review:  Sep 19, 2004
The Bottom Line: those looking for something more than family videos will find this a good match. Also look at the Canon GL2.
Review: This unit is a "pro-sumer" unit... not quite what the pros use, but well above the consumer level unit.

The 3ccd senor captures colors in rich vibrant definition and images are crisp and clean... none of the typical "squiggles and lines"...

Excellent camera

Date of Review:  Oct 13, 2004
Review: I have been using the Vx-2100 for nearly 1 year and am happy to say that I find it easy to use but yet full of feature options to allow me to configure and customize the settings. I love every part of the camera and I just bought my son a Vx-2100,...

Sony HandyCam DCR-VX2100 in daily production

Date of Review:  Jul 26, 2005
Review: I am using it for "pro" production. It is way better than the Sony DXC327 that I have used for last 20 years. The DXC looks more the part, but the DCR-VX2100 delivers. My big hands are pretty clumsy with the DVmini tapes and certainly with all the...

Excellent low light performance, awesome LCD, not quite a dsr250

Date of Review:  Nov 11, 2004
The Bottom Line: Highly recommended as a B-roll or backup cam for event videography.
Review: I own a Sony DSR250 and Canon GL2. Here is a quick comparison summary. I brought the VX2100 3 months ago and used it on 5 weddings. I am pleased with it.

Things I liked:
1. The low light performance is MUCH more superior to the GL2...

Great wedding/event camcorder!

Date of Review:  Nov 11, 2006
Review: I'd rather have a PD170 which is essentially the same camera with XLR inputs and separate controls for audio channels, but at the time the money difference was bigger. We own two VX2100s and we do about thirty weddings a year. These cameras are...

A great camera, but little improvement over the VX2000

Date of Review:  Sep 21, 2004
The Bottom Line: A great camera for the pro-sumer. Excellent low light performance, outstanding picture quality, great sound.
