Now Sony has digital videocams that fit in the palm of your hand and weigh only 12 ounces. The company's new MicroMV Handycams, the DCR-IP5 and the DCR-IP7BT, provide 500 lines of horizontal resolution, CD-quality sound, and a DVD-like thumbnail picture accessing feature. They use Sony MicroMV cassettes, which are 70 percent smaller than MiniDV tapes. This allows the camcorders to measure 1 7/8 by 4 by 3 1/8 inches. Each cassette is supposed to supply up to 60 minutes of high-quality digital video. The lack of heft comes at a premium, though: The IP5 costs $1299 and the IP7BT, $1699 _/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/ You can't depend on your judgement when your imagination is out of focus. -- Mark Twain. _/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/ OLTECO Ari Ollikainen P.O.
