Sony Supports Internet Video With Expanded Line of Hard Disk Drive Camcorders

Sony's U.S. camcorder business is getting a boost from the growing popularity of video websites, such as YouTube(TM), MySpace(TM) and Grouper(TM).

More than 35 percent of U.S. adult Internet users -- approximately 48 million -- have posted video online this year, according to the May 2006 Pew Internet and American Life Project, which points to the popularity of user-generated content on the Web.

Starting at about $600, the Sony(R) hard disk drive Handycam camcorder line includes five models, with such varying features as 60GB of hard disk drive storage, 1080i high-definition recording, HDD Smart Protection to safeguard against data loss, and Dolby (R) Digital 5.1 channel surround recording.
