The Sony Digital8 Handycam adventure (DCR-TRV340 & 350)

Two Sony "Didital 8" (sic) Handycams in "unknown condition" and a bumper crop of InfoLithium batteries that I got on eBay at a bargain price. Out of the two, the DCR-TRV340 has some nicer features and has less tape motor noise, while the DCR-TRV350 is smaller and lighter and has a built-in 3-watt halogen spotlight. (And unlike the TRV350 that I reviewed a few years ago, the SteadyShot on this one works perfectly.)
