Review Summary The Sony Handycam DCR-DVD650 offers an all-in-one, on-the-go way to capture standard-def video and burn it to a DVD, but hard-disk-drive and flash-memory models are otherwise a better option. Though its video isn't perfect, the Canon FS200 is one of the better standard-definition consumer camcorders available. The JVC Everio GZ-MS120 is a nice little flash-memory-based standard-definition camcorder.
