DVD camcorders really don't require much. If you plan on taking advantage of the MemoryStick PRO Duo recording, then you'll need a couple of those. A larger backup battery (Sony's NP-FH70) would be a good idea as well. If you go the DVD route, stock up--you'll end up burning through a lot.

Other Features (5.0)
Smooth Slow Record - For liquid smooth slow motion action, use Smooth Slow Record. 12 seconds of video will be captured at a buttery 240fps, which is 1/4 the speed of standard 60fps video.

Super NightShot - When there's a blackout, Super NightShot will penetrate through the darkness, casting an eerie green glow to recorded video. Using an infrared light, Super NightShot will make everyone look like Martians.

Dual Record - While in video mode, Dual Record allows you to capture a 3MP still image while simultaneously recording video.

Digital Effect - Old Movie will add a little film grain and sepia tone to your video for that "Old Timey" feel.

Battery Info - Wondering how much juice is left in the battery? Press the Battery Display/Info button and a graph will appear displaying the remaining battery life in percentage increments. Remaining LCD and Viewfinder life is also present.

Backlight Compensation (BLC) - When a subject is underexposed in the center of the shot, Backlight Compensation raises the overall exposure so the subject is brighter.

Picture Effects - Sepia, Black and White, and Pastel are the in-camera effects you can apply if you're afraid of editing programs.

Faders - For dramatic purposes, you can fade in and out of shots with Black or White fades.
