The CCD has 340K pixels which lie behind a Carl Zeiss 25mm lens that has 10x optical zoom. The Sony DCR-DVD 101 works quite well at 3000 lux. Even with daylight settings the colours do not fade away much except for the green. The rest of the colours work very well. The Sony DCR-DVD 101 has batteries, which lasts 5 hours and 9 hours.
