Product Description
Memories are made to be shared, and it couldn’t be easier than with the DCR-DVD508 Handycam® camcorder. By recording straight to DVD-R/-RW/+RW/+R Dual Layer media formats6, it has never been simpler to put your video on display. A Carl Zeiss® Vario-Sonnar® T* Lens enables superior clarity while the Super SteadyShot® image stabilization makes sure it stays that way. You can even take 4.6 megapixel photos while you’re shooting video in stunning 5.1 channel surround sound, or snap gorgeous 6.1 megapixel still images. And when you need to get close, the 10x optical/20x digital zoom means every detail is crystal clear.
Feature List
3.0 Megapixel (Gross) ClearVid™ CMOS Sensor
1/2.9” ClearVid™ CMOS Sensor with 2280K (effective) pixels (16:9) provides stunning detail and clarity with exceptional video (up to 530 lines of horizontal resolution) and still image performance. The megapixel technology enhances your digital videos and digital still (3040K) photography performance (4:3).


DVD Format Video Recording
The DVD recording format delivers digital picture and sound quality comparable to that of MiniDV, but on DVD. Playback of the DVDs couldn't be simpler. After finalizing the disc in the camcorder, the disc can play back in most DVD Players, computers and even PlayStation®2 and PlayStation®3 video game consoles1.


DVD-R/RW/+RW and +R Dual Layer Compatible1
The DCR-DVD508 is compatible with a variety of DVD formats allowing the ease of use and simplicity found in DVD media. With DVD+RW media there is not a need to finalize the disc (minimum recording required). Simply remove the disc and insert the media into a compatible DVD player.


10X Optical/20X Digital Zoom
The optical zoom helps to bring the action close up from far away. In addition the digital zoom interpolation means that extreme digital zooming is clearer, with less distortion than previous types of digital zooms.


Professional Quality Carl Zeiss® Vario-Sonnar® T* Lens
Carl Zeiss lenses have an advanced optical multi-layer coating that offers less glare and flare with increased contrast. This results in vivid image brilliance, true-to-life color saturation, and perfect renditions of subtle tones. The additional T* coating on the lens further reduces unwanted glare and flare.


Dolby® Digital 5.1ch Recording
The DCR-DVD508 will record in Dolby Digital 5.1ch surround sound with a built-in microphone. By recording in 5.1 channel surround sound you can experience your home movies with active sounds coming from all directions. Enjoy your personal home movies the way you experienced them while recording.


2.7” Wide (16:9) Hybrid Touch Panel Clear Photo™ plus LCD (211K Pixels)2
The 2.7” Wide (16:9) LCD screen provides excellent viewing clarity with improved resolution. The high resolution 211K pixel LCD screen rotates up to 270 degrees for multiple viewing angles providing sharp, detailed images for monitoring or playback, and the widescreen format makes shooting in 16:9 mode and composing shots even easier.

Smooth Slow Record
By increasing the record rate from 60 fields per second (fps) to 240 fps for 3 seconds allows you to capture 3 seconds of fast motion and play the video back in 12 seconds. This is great for analyzing a golf swing or viewing a bird in flight. In addition, record an audio track to narrate what is being seen in the video.


Memory Stick Duo™ Media Slot1
Capture still images up to 2848x2136 (4:3) resolution directly onto Memory Stick Duo™ Media for easy transfer to PCs for e-mailing, printing or sharing with other compatible Memory Stick® media compatible devices.


Super SteadyShot® (Optical) Image Stabilization System
This advanced form of Sony's SteadyShot Image Stabilization system controls an even higher range of shake and vibration frequencies. The optical stabilization system achieves an even higher level of smoothness without degradation of video like some digital stabilization systems.


On Screen Zoom and Record Buttons
For additional control of the camcorder, the DCR-DVD508 features zoom and record buttons on the frame of the LCD screen. This allows the user more flexibility when holding the camcorder, especially in overhead or low angle shots.


USB 2.0 Interface1
USB 2.0 interface provides an easy way to connect your DVD Handycam camcorder to computers for fast transfer of video and still images to your computer for editing. The camcorder can also be used as an external DVD burner, convenient for making copies of your DVDs or burning edited movies.


One Touch Wide Angle Shooting
Easily switch between 16:9 and 4:3 aspect ratios with just the touch of a button.
