One I got was last one. It was a discontinued item. They still had the display model left though. Some stores may have some left. They must be selling them off cheap to clear the stock. Maybe worth calling a few stores.

Re: Sony HDR-CX6EK Full HD Handycam
Comet in Watford has it. Was tempting, but don't don't how well it compares against the HF100 which is now only £507 on dixons.

Re: Sony HDR-CX6EK Full HD Handycam
I might get it if someone could tell me how well it compares to the SR-11/SR-12 in terms of image quality.

I didn't buy it online so don't know any comet reference numbers for it. The best I can offer is my receipt which says:
CAMCORDERS
401307 SONY HDR-CX6
I bought mine from the Carlisle branch. They still had one display model left. You could maybe ring and ask them for it's Comet reference number?
*Try the camcorder section of the forum if you want comparisons.
http://www.avforums.com/forums/camcorders-video-editing/
From what I have read in the forums here since getting this, and what I have found myself, it is a stunning piece of kit and the PQ is superb. I have watched stuff back in 1080 by simply putting the Pro Duo card into the PS3 and the quality is stunning.

Re: Sony HDR-CX6EK Full HD Handycam
It's £359 as I have physically seen it. You have to note though, we are talking about the display models.

Re: Sony HDR-CX6EK Full HD Handycam
Hi Naqv,
Thanks for the info and that would explain the difference in price I was quoted.
Can you tell me the one in Watford is it on display in the open or behind a glass counter ?
Many thanks
Indie.
