///  Just an added point guys. Sony put a chip in their batteries and if you 
have a unit with an after market battery the camera won't charge it. Same 
for all the sony off-camera chargers. If you are new to the camcorder market 
this might save you some time if some one drops off a Sony with an 
aftermarket battery.
