At the same time, they are often looking to store a larger amount of stock in a given footprint, saving valuable floor space.

Sony HDR-CX7 camcorder
Globe and Mail – Jul 31, 2007
Yes, not being able to use any of your existing memory cards is unspeakably lame, but if you want to record high-def video on flash storage you’ll just have to deal with it. I tested the HDRCX7 with a 2GB Memory Stick, which was capable of recording about 15 minutes of video at the highest possible quality (Full HD 1080), 35 minutes of footage at the lowest HD setting, and 45 minutes in standard definition. Memory Sticks come as big as 8GB, which puts the maximum media storage capacity of highest quality HD video at one hour, roughly on par with a MiniDV tape. Of course large capacity memory cards are pricey (2GB Memory Sticks sell for $70, 8GB for $200), but they are reusable, never degrade, and are far more convenient than MiniDV tapes. Just pop out the stick, jam it into the multimedia card reader on your PC, and copy and paste files — a task infinitely preferable to the technical and time-consuming process of recording MiniDV tapes to a hard drive. Plus, they don’t have any moving parts, which results in a serious boost to camcorder battery life (I squeaked out nearly three hours of juice on a single charge) and no need to worry about skips when recording on the move. With great video quality comes great editing tribulation While creating and transferring HD video files is a snap, playing and editing these files can bring on a headache…

With great video quality comes great editing tribulation While creating and transferring HD video files is a snap, playing and editing these files can bring on a headache. To get the most out of the HD files generated by the HDRCX7, you’ll need a powerful, multi-core PC and a player and editing software that supports Sony’s AVCHD format. Without these puzzle pieces the only way you’ll be able to watch your home video in stutter-free HD is by connecting the HDRCX7 to your television with an HDMI cable and playing the video straight off the camcorder. The HDRCX7 comes with Picture Motion Browser and Player for AVCHD, a pair of apps designed for high definition video playback and simple editing tasks, but you’ll need a third party software package (like Ulead Video Studio 11 Plus) if you want to get down and dirty with post production processes.
