Sony NP-FH100 Infolithium H Series High Capactiy Camcorder Battery

Great for holidays, 2008-09-29
Though this is quite expensive, I purchased it to go with my Sony - DCR-SR35 Camcorder. Fully charged, this battery gives over 700 minutes of recording/playback. This is great for holidays - meant that I didn't have to recharge it once over a 2 week trip.

Sony Sonic Serenity, 2008-02-15
After using a long list of cd/dvd blank discs, I finally arrived at the Sonys. These are by far the best quality playback discs I have used, and all of them burned with no problems at all........5 Stars from me, I will only use Sony from now on........

Sony T500 STUNNING!!!, 2008-10-15
I first purchased the Lumix TZ5 after discovering that it took HD video footage and soon found out it was a mere after thought as it definitely needed ironing out! First few problems where evident as it made a horrific grinding sound that was recorded every time you zoomed in and out not to mention the tortoise like speed of the zoom function whilst videoing. It also had Mono sound recording and most importantly you can only take 10 minutes or so on a 4GB Card whereas you can capture 50 Minutes of the same quality 720p video footage with the Sony and yes with very high quality stereo sound! This is due to the fact that the Sony is compressing the video whilst capturing it (V impressive).

Any way this is about the T500 and my goodness what a machine being able to do all what the Lumix can do bar the 10x optical zoom (Which wasn't great anyway) as the Sony has 5x Optical zoom. However the optical zoom of the Sony is very well hidden as the mechanism is hidden in the casing so no protruding lens to damage or knock. It is aprox 1/2 the size of the Lumix and packs a lot more power behind its punch too. It has a very simple to use touch screen which is very intuitive. I didn't need to consult the manual except for the battery charging times! The build quality is second to non comparable in fact with that of Apple or all the other Sony products. The metal casing feels strong and rigid. The Photos are sharp and very vivid still allowing you to use all the normal features including ISO ranges, macro etc etc. In fact even though the lens is comparably smaller to the Lumix at full zoom I preferred the accuracy of pixel attainment and color capture of the Sony as well. In conclusion the Sony is all round brilliant in all aspects I strongly suggest taking a look!

Just as a last thought a lot of the web reviews floating about say that the Sony has 4GB internal Memory this is not so and is in fact only 4MB which in no use to man nor beast so I would suggest a 4GB card, but most importantly a high speed one 15mbps or higher. I would suggest and in fact bought myself the Memory stick pro duo MARK 2 as it is quick enough for the HD video capture If you do not get a high speed card when you try to take HD footage it will simply say no space available, (When it actually means the card is not fast enough).
This is my first review of any product ever but this camera is worth a go so I hope it OK, Thanks for reading.

PS other review insinuates you need to buy a cradle this is not so everything you need with exception of the component (HD) cable is present in the box :-)

Why haven't you got one of these. It's the best bargin you'll ever get with 'Sony' stamped on it. Everything that the other reviewers say is true. It even fits my ancient, but excellent, 1980s SLR camera.

• SUPPLIED WITH 2 X EAR PADS

Great pair of bargain headphones, 2007-12-18
If you want a pair of headphones that won't affect the quality of your music whilst looking good and costing less than a tenner these are for you.

They produce a better sound than the 'phones provided with a Sony MP3 player and a louder one than those that come with an iPod.

Look at JVC 'Marshmellow' earbuds before buying these as they are slightly better but if you'd rather have a set that just sit in your ear rather than go in them these are a great buy.

One final thing, each ear wire is the same length, not one longer than the other which some people may prefer.

Solid Player, 2008-11-02
This is a very solid player that meets my needs well. I wanted an MP3 player for exercise - I do a lot of training in some pretty bad weather over long distances. So I needed something that was durable, flexible and not too expensive so it wasn't the end of the world if it broke.

The player is a nice size and slips easily into a pocket. It starts quickly and has intuitive, well positioned controls. You can send playlists to the player from your computer which is a fantastic feature. It allows me to have a great variety of content on the player without having to worry about skipping past talk tracks (for example) if i'm not in the mood for them.

The shuffle feature is quirky but works. The previous reviewer is quite right to a point. If you want a new shuffle, you will need to stop play and then play otherwise your player wil resume from where you left off playing last with exactly the same track order. A slightly annoying quirk.

The screen is useful and clear to me, however I can see it would be a problem to people with less than perfect eye sight. Still it provides all necessary information.

Battery life is the best I have seen for a gym player like this at 16 hours. Not as good as dedicated mp3/mp4 players but I would not recommend taking those sort of players out exercising with you - they will get battered and they will get wet & muddy which they will not take kindly to. If you're a more moderate exerciser than me you may well be fine going this more expensive route. Personally if i'm running through streams I don't like the idea of having a hundred odd quids worth of player in my pocket.

The sound of the player is very good and you can adjust sound settings if you are so inclined. I haven't used the provided headphones myself, I have sport specific ones that I use. I imagine they are as poor as most headphones that are provided with players.

It feels solid, works without any kinks and I do not feel worried when it gets wet, sat on or jangled around in my bag. It looks nice if that is important to you! The menu system is very clear and you can browse your music collection either via folders or via your ID3 tags (album, genre etc). The buttons are well laid out and it is an easy task to adjust volume, skip tracks etc when on the move.

A really good product then, slightly let down by a quirky shuffle function and small screen. This is more than compensated for by the strong battery life, good sound performance, playlist functionality and portability.

Incidentally, while the previous review was correct about the shuffle the same is not true of criticism of the volume. The sound goes plenty loud enough for me - I use it out on busy roads and have not had it on the top volume or even near to that. Volume on all mp3 players is limited by law - if you need to crank it up that high you should think carefully about how you're affecting (or have previously affected) your hearing. If your hearing is fine then look at the headphones you are using.

Sony DVD+R (recordable), 50 Pieces Spindle, 16x

I've tried lots of different brands of discs over the last few years, but for me, Sony discs lead the way for stability, endurance and compatibility. In the family, we use a number of different brands of dvd player, and not all brands play all discs, but this problem has ceased since we switched to using Sony discs (this review also applies to RW discs). I would recommend this brand, even though it is alittle more expensive, it is worth paying more for reliability.
