kanny 20,287 Posted May 7, 2012 Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 Thanks for your help can you fill me in about this chip thing as i have no idea about cams the sensor chip is what the camera uses to see so the bigger the chip the better it can process the info coming in therefore giving a better picture.... i think .... if you look down the spec list under this camera you will see it says sensor size 1/6 http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SONY-HANDYCAM-DCR-DVD105E-CAMCORDER-SILVER-/280874930253?pt=UK_Sound_Vision_Other&hash=item416573504d Quote Link to post Share on other sites
