I want to know if you can get sony vegas free with a sony camcorder. Like you get it with the camera or anything along those lines.
I don’t think so, though it’s got to be worth haggling if you’re buying them from the same shop. Sony’s a big company – there isn’t much of a connection between the different groups.
B&H have Vegas 6 for $99, but it doesn’t include the DVD authoring app. Vegas 7 has improved High Def editing, which might be an issue, too. You could buy the discounted V6 and then get the upgrades from Sony – it’s cheaper that way.
Another possibility would be to get a cheap copy of Vegas Movie Studio and go through the upgrade route.

Sony has a 15% discount on certain accessories when you register a new camcorder. I don’t know if Sony Vegas is one of those eligible accessories.
