  • Abstract:  It may be the most expensive camcorder in this test, but the XR520VE is a monster when it comes to storage capacity, with a 240GB hard drive that’s bigger than the stock storage space found in some computers. While this makes it great for extended trip...

  • Massive storage capacity, good manual control placement, optical viewfinder
  • Tricky user interface, heavy, short battery life, unremarkable HD video performance

  • The world’s first street-smart camcorder automatically geo-tags your videos and photos, plotting them as tiny thumbnails on its built-in global maps. Every element of this Full HD camcorder is at the top of its game, starting with a brand new CMOS s...
  • There’s no bad on board this Sony, but it does occasionally stray from perfection. There’s no standard way to geo-tag videos yet, so you’ll need to manual locate movies uploaded to Flickr. And don’t rely on the built-in maps to sco...
  • Not only the best shooting Full HD camcorder available for under a grand but the first of a new breed of smart, flexible, connected shooters that makes home movie making cool again. Sony HDR-XR520VE is tagged with Sony HDR-XR520VE, Sony and camcorder. ...

  • First-rate video quality and performance; geotagging videos is fun
  • Annoying menu system; no wind filter; no manual shutter-speed, iris or audio controls; relatively big and heavy; expensive
  • Although its geotagging capabilities are mostly a novelty, its interface could use a complete overhaul and it's overpriced, the top-notch video quality, performance and consumer-friendly feature set of the Sony Handycam HDR-XR520VE make it a worthy ca...

  • The top models from Canon, Panasonic and Sony are all masterful products. Canon's LEGRIA HF S10 is currently too expensive, but the Panasonic HDC-HS300 and Sony HDR-X520 are similarly priced and much harder to distinguish. The Panasonic's full-sized acces...

  • Very detailed HD footage. Crisp and clear LCD screen. Excellent in low light
  • Not cheap. Autofocus wobbles. Not for Mac users, yet
  • Pricey and far from compact, but if you want HD footage to really drool over this is hard to beat ...

  • Good video quality; large storage size; 12x optical zoom.
  • PMB software is for the PC only; poor still photos in low light conditions; no creative recording modes.
  • The Sony XR520 offers a lot of ­different features that will prove invaluable to the budding ­videographer. Its expansive 240GB hard disk is great for holding a vast amount of video data so you won’t ever need to pop in a disc or ­mem...
