We use the Sony DCR-VX2100E Professional Camcorder to record the main events of your day. We also use a Vinten Pro 5 tripod with fluid dampened head, to avoid excessive camera shake and provide the best possible images.

Manufacturers description:

The DCR-VX2100E - offering the brightest video results of all Sony MiniDV models. With its new Advanced HAD progressive scan CCD technology - illumination is improved dramatically - delivering superior low-light performance without the use of infrared technology. By increasing the CCD's sensitivity to light - clearer - brighter video with more lifelike color can be captured - even when recording in dimly lit environments. Its 58mm aspherical lens and duel-position neutral density filter minimize distortion from standard spherical lenses and compensate for varying lighting situations such as studio lights or direct sunlight.
