Excellent Product
2009-05-01.Sony HVL-S3D 3 Watt Video Light for DCR-DVD101/201/301 & DCR-HC40/65/85 & DCR-TRV38The Sony HVL-S3D 3 Watt Video Light is a great product. The cost was good and the delivery time was early. It is great to have to film my grandaughter inside the house and have the light always attached to the camera, ready to be used.
A Must HAVE.
2007-11-17Just what i needed. My camcorder has a night light but this item is so much better and twice the light.
FINALLY we can video tape Christmas morning!
2007-07-05For several years after our first daughter was born we really couldn't successfully video tape Christmas morning before the sun came up without the wonderful video light. All the video was dark and grainy. Although I would like to have one that illuminates a bit further, this does do the trick. I remember my dad's old videos with the SUPER bright video light (back in the 60's) and everyone who was within 2 miles of the camera was blinded by the light! This one is not so strong but gives just enough light within about 5 feet to get everything fairly clearly.
Great solution
2007-01-09This little video light is great. Easy to store in camera bag with the camcorder. Quick and easy to set up and use.
Works fine
2007-01-06This works fine. It is cost effective and a good upgrade for a handheld video camera. Good in low light situations. Really fixes shadow problems nicely.

There's a lot of debate today about the safety of using cell phones while driving. Statistics show that those who use cell phones while driving cause a much greater percentage of accidents than those who avoid using their cell phones. And the studies have shown that it's not just the physical coordination required to punch numbers into the cell phone while you're trying to work the vehicle that causes accidents; it's actually the lack of attention resulting from driving and talking on the cell phone at the same time. It seems that when you're distracted, you're more likely to cause accidents.
In terms of public safety, it's probably correct to say that banning cell phones would reduce the number of traffic accidents. But I think, more accurately, it depends on the person. Some people are operating on, shall we say, lower power CPUs in their heads to begin with. They might be zoned out on prescription drugs, and when you add a cell phone to the equation, they do become a danger to the ...
Printer Buying Guide
What kind of printer is best for me?
Choosing the right printer can be a daunting task. There are several different types of printing technology to choose from, each suited for different needs. Printers come in all shapes and sizes, from tiny travel companions to workgroup workhorses; some are geared toward photographers, others are for multitaskers. And the many specifications for resolution and speed can be misleading. As a rule of thumb, inkjet printers are a must for long-lasting photos, while laser printers are best to produce speedy text documents.
