The DCR-PC350 comes supplied with a Handycam Station for convenient battery charging and easy video transfers to a TV, VCR or personal computer.

	MiniDV Format The MiniDV format offers more precise image detail and color accuracy than previously possible with analog camcorders. The superior quality of digital video results from: Higher Resolution -- up to 530 lines of horizontal resolution, on select models for sharper picture detail. Component Color Sampling -- preserves three times more color information than analog VHS and S-VHS video, for brighter and truer colors. Time Base Correction -- stabilizes the picture, eliminating video jitters. Error Correction -- fills in missing video data, providing seamless, professional-looking video.
	2.5" Hybrid LCD Monitor High resolution 211K pixel design helps provide excellent viewing and image playback clarity. The Hybrid system consists of a transmissive LCD combined with a reflective LCD. By turning off the LCD backlight, it will capture more ambient light virtually eliminating "wash-out." Images will be visible in the LCD even in the most challenging outdoor lighting conditions.
	Professional Quality Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonnar T Lens Carl Zeiss T lens coatings are among some of the most advanced multi-layer coating systems in the world, resulting in even less glare and flare with increased contrast. This results in vivid image brilliance, true-to-life color saturation and perfect renditions of subtle tones.
	Easy Handycam Button Using a camcorder can be intimidating for some people, so with a press of the Easy Handycam button, most of the advanced functions of the camcorder are "locked out" leaving only the buttons essential for recording operational.
	Battery Information Battery information is momentarily displayed without having to power on the camcorder. Quickly access the battery's status by pressing the Battery Info button. The Recording Time Available is displayed in minutes on either the LCD screen or in the viewfinder.
	i.LINK Digital Interface Don't be content with life as it is. Improve your memories with digital video editing on a PC or digital VCR. Sony's i.LINK DV or MICROMV interface gives you true digital-to-digital editing, without the "generation loss" of analog editing. And the i.LINK interface is compatible with a range of Sony digital VCRs, Sony edit controllers, and Sony PCs with editing software.
	MPEG Movie EX Mode Unlike earlier MPEG1 Movies, MPEG Movie EX will allow you to record 320 x 240 resolution MPEG movies uninterrupted up to the capacity of the Memory Stick Duo Media. These movies are perfect for emailing to friends and family.
	PictBridge Compatibility Connect your PictBridge compatible digital camera directly to a PictBridge compatible digital photo printer via a USB cable to allow for simple photo printing without the need for a computer.
	USB Streaming Stay connected with family and friends by broadcasting live video with audio, via the Internet with the USB interface. You can even playback your favorite recorded scene stored on tape. It's like having your own web camera or video conferencing system.
