Yes, bravo568! You can absolutely shoot videos in the dark and still get a visible image. You'll have to make some modification to your camera and build an IR/UV emitter.

This topic is covered in great detail within the Hacking Digital Cameras book . . . in chapter 15 and chapter 16. The book uses the DSC-P92, your camera's cousin, as an example, so it should be quite applicable to your camera. Here is the outline of the content that will help you:

Chapter 15: Shooting Infrared Picture with Your Digital Camera
Chapter 16: Eliminating the IR Blocking Filter from Your Digital Camera
Sony NightShot Camcorder
Make Your Own Infrared Emitter
Ultraviolet Photography

The two chapters span across 49 pages; much more than I can cover in a message post. Please stop by the bookstore and pick up a copy.
