Released as part of the Handycam series, these models emphasize convenience, ease of use, and advanced technology, making them popular choices among users who need reliable handheld recording devices.

The DCR-SR67 boasts a built-in 30 GB hard drive, allowing for ample storage capacity for hours of high-quality video footage. This model supports a maximum recording time of approximately 20 hours in standard mode. In contrast, the DCR-SR48 features a slightly smaller 40 GB hard drive, providing an extended recording time.
