About the Sony HDR-CX220E Camcorder
The Sony HDR-CX220E is a compact, easy-to-use Full HD camcorder for family films, holidays and events. Its CMOS sensor records Full HD 1080/50i video, while the 27x optical zoom lens pulls distant subjects close without losing detail. Optical SteadyShot reduces shake for steadier handheld footage, and the 2.7-inch LCD screen makes framing and playback simple. Video and stills are saved to Memory Stick or SD cards, and the built-in USB cable makes transferring clips to a computer straightforward. It is a practical choice if you want a dedicated camcorder that is simpler and more comfortable to hold than a phone for long recordings.
