i bought mine(a mini dvcam) at sydney duty free shop last 2004 "dcr pc105e" when i got home i found out that the usb port was busted it couldnt transfer my still shots to the pc brought it to our service center here in the Phils and found out that my waranty was exclusive for aussie and nz

right now the viewfinder lcd pag naiinitan lets say you brought it with you outdoors for extended periods total black out sya

well that was 75k well wasted
should have bought a cannon still dslr insted with that amount

totoo yan sa singapore i was able to "test" side by side sony and panasonic mini DV videocams...talk about night and day

advance ang technology ng panasonics...

sony dvdcam prices are dropping (singapore $ 640=Php20K) its a bigflop daw sabi ng sales agent sa sing.

**BoEinG_747** · October 22nd, 2005 03:58 PM

kaya pala dami sales ng mga Sony products ngayon

particularly doon sa mga video cam,plan ko pa naman kumuha this december..

so guys ano brand suggest ninyo na maganda ?

**kimpOy** · October 22nd, 2005 04:17 PM

yup bagsak ang sony videocams lalo na ang DVDcams
miniDV format still lords it over although mabili din ang mga tapeless camcorders

boeing,
i bought a panasonic videocam ibang iba kasi ang pagka klaro nito versus sa sony lalo na kapag sa gabi ka nag re-record.
meron din zoom ang sound ng panasonic, so imagine zoom 50X tapos recorded din ang pinauusapan nila...

i got my panasonic 21K sa singapore dito roughly nasa 36K

also, might want to check out the sanyo C4...4megapixel and records mpeg 4.
pinagisipan ko rin ito kaso may digicam na ako.

**nemo's friend** · October 22nd, 2005 04:23 PM

i have a DSC-P32 ... will they be recalled locally in Phils, or point of purchase?

help naman po

**BlueGirl** · October 23rd, 2005 08:42 PM

ang nasira sakin yung memory card hindi yung digicam(SONY)..nawala lahat ng pics ko nung graduation hindi pa naman napaprint/upload nun..sayang...

**Jiggs** · October 23rd, 2005 11:02 PM

well, I've only found it out just 2days ago when I brought my cam (Canon A-70) sa service center. The lady in the center just told me to comeback after 14working days and there will be no charge if it was only the CCD problem aside from it will be charge accordingly. Okei naman service no question asked was so anxious nga kase I bought that cam sa Singapore, sa warranty kase it was specified there that it not applicalbe yung warranty sa outside Singpore though...ala na rin naman sa warranty date eh...more than 2years na sakin b4 it went kaput. buti na lang These companies readily acknowledge their fault.

**j_avonni** · October 24th, 2005 08:56 AM

So far, hindi pa naman nagluluko ang aking camcorder. Thanks for the advice.

**boybi** · October 26th, 2005 11:55 PM

sony din ba ang nagsusupply ng CCD sa Canon? nagblackout kasi yung CCD ng Canon Elura50 ko and brought it to Canon for repairs. out of warranty na sya, but when i called them to followup on the repairs and to inquire about the cost of repairs, wala daw bayad.

**kimpOy** · October 27th, 2005 11:26 AM

baka yung labor ay free or baka pinatong na nila yung labor sa parts tapos sasabihin sa iyo free. he..he

**mhelskie** · October 27th, 2005 01:24 PM

sa panasonic digicams kya cno nagsu supply ng CCDs hehehe, I have a panasonic lumix DMC-FZ5, bought only this August sa US...so far walang problema

nemo,

pareho lang tayo. Same model. I inquired sa Sony at kasama sa recall ito.

My problem is that, I already had mine repaired last year pa and paid 6,000 bucks for it. They will refund the amount daw IF I could show them the official receipt. AZZ!! That was last year pa!! Now, humuhukay ako sa mga papeles ko baka sakali.

May Handycam na HC-40 pa ako. Hay naku!

**BRROOOMMMM** · April 13th, 2007 07:53 PM
