 Great, they shipped it sooner than expected August 31, 2010

Very impressive Camcorder August 16, 2010
Henry Niezabitowski (Sahuarita, AZ, US)
I was quite impressed with the quality of the images produced by this camcorder, even at Standard resolution. I've yet to try using the HD mode, but can't imagine how these images will appear. The only shortcoming I perceive is that this camcorder doesn't have a through-the-lens viewfinder, but with time, I'll be able to adjust. The idea of having every image recorded to either the internal flash drive or a choice of SD or Pro cards makes this camcorder quite versatile. Having a Sony mini disc camcorder (which is operating very erraticly, and in need of service), I think having fewer moving parts to deal with is a big advantage. The capacity of the internal flash drive is more than adequate for my needs. Excellent product.Sony HDR-CX150 16GB High Definition Handycam Camcorder
 Great HD Video Capture Device July 28, 2010
UNIX Guru (Anaheim,CA USA)
I have the Dark Blue Color available from BestBuy Only.
From owning a Mini-DV camera using MiniDV tapes for the last 8 years ( which I already thought was goog quality) I never imagined I would have own a Video capture device of this calibre.
Pro's:
* HD Output via HDMI.
* Lightweight.
* Nice touch screen controls. Easy to navigate.
* Simple Design. No Viewfinder, No power-on or off button .
* Simple Unit Power-on achieved by opening the touch screen.
* Internal 16GB is sufficient for daily use. Option to install additional memory or SD Stick.
Con's:
* No Remote-Control Option. I miss the remote control. I like to hardwire the unit to my HDTV and control from my couch. I do not have that option now.
* Should include Mini-HDMI cable by default. The cable costs only $[...] in Amazon.
* Getting to a point that the camera can be too small for average adult hands. Clasping the unit on your palm and controlling it with finger tips is slightly challenging at first. One thing is that your 8 year old can easily take videos as well.
FaceBook: HD video needs to be converted to MPEG2 format via the included PMB software then Facebook recognizes the file for upload.
Overall I am happy with the purchase. I would immediately buy a 30mm filter to protect the lens. A extended battery would also be a good idea for those long shoots...
Love This Camcorder July 5, 2010

Easy to use right out of the box and beautiful video. It's amazing what they put in such a small package; it's very easy to hold without your arm getting tired like the old camcorders. I had tried a different brand camcorder and the zoom was very choppy, but the zoom with this Sony is very smooth. I also like that it has 16GB on board so I could try it out without having to purchase media.
Excellent HD camcorder July 4, 2010

I bought this Sony HDX150 Handicam to document a two week trip to Alaska. After a brief practice session recording a trio jam session at my home - which has been posted on Youtube - I was ready for the trip. The camcorder performed flawlessly, is so compact and light it was a perfect choice for documenting the awesome Alaskan trip. True, the still photos are not as good as those taken with the two Canon SD1000 cameras we also took with us, but still, they are not bad, and the convenience of clicking the photo button to add to the videos is great. The 16 gig built in flash memory was also a deciding factor with the purchase of this Camcorder. With an added 8gig card we were able to record over 7 hours of video and photos. When we returned home and I connected the HDX150 to our Sony Bravia HD TV with an HDMI cable I was very happy with the detail and clarity of the movies. The colors and focus were exceptional as well. A perk, and one of the factors I considered when purchasing this camcorder is that with the HDMI connection, the camcorder links to the TV and one can control both with the TV remote. Lowlight videos came out very natural and impressive. We are very pleased with this Sony HRX HD Handycam. And of course, the price was right even with the shipping charge: $485.
