Some people might not always have their laptop or PC around. Having to use the computer as a middle man, just for burning some DVDs from those recorded footages on your video cam, might sound a little bit troublesome. But if you want a way to do that without using a PC or laptop, Sony has the solution for you.
Sony has created the DVDirect DVD Burner, which is a DVD burner that lets you connect to your video cam, and burn those recorded footages onto the DVDs, without having to deal with the little hassle of hooking them up to a computer. The Sony burner has got a 2.5-inch color screen which lets you easily preview what you need to do on it. It also has 5 memory card slots which you can transfer video contents on memory cards to it easily. The device also supports dual recording mechanism, which can store up to 8.5GB of footage on a DVD+R Dual Layer Disk. It also allows automatic DVD tilting, and menu creation in four different design styles.
The burner lets you connect various video sources to it for direct burning to DVDs. Besides camcorder, you can also connect your VCR or DVR as well. You also get an option for recording clear photo slideshows and HD videos, such as AVCHD video from Sony HDD or Memory Stick camcorders to DVD format, which is playable in Blu-ray compatible devices. This handy burner carries a price tag of $230, which you can get it from Skymall!
