The first thing that comes to mind when seeing Sony’s DCR-DVD7E is that it looks rather like a Discman, but this is of course only because it must make room for a DVD-R, DVD-RW, or DVD+RW to use as recording media. The unit, announced yesterday in Europe, has a 2.5-inch LCD viewfinder on the back, and despite perhaps looking a bit unimpressive, the lens does a respectable 10x optical zoom. No idea what it’s going to cost when it hits European shelves in May.
