Sony has released their new range of Handycam camcorders that allow users to experience a new level of digital media. We take a look at two cameras: The SR47 and the XR520.

Claiming to have a 60x optical zoom lens, the SR47 takes you into the heart of the action. Footage can be stored on the camcorder's 60 gigabyte hard disk drive or on Sony's Memory Stick PRO duo media. This entry-level camcorder will be out in February for about HK$4,300.

Meanwhile, the XR520 is packed with new features to enhance your filming experience. With a new 'Active Mode' feature and CMOS Sensor, it produces quality images even during poor conditions. The XR520 will be out in March for about HK$11,980. VIDEO AFTER JUMP.
