I take this little video camera every where I go. It is small and compact but works great and when it opens up it is easy to hold and use. The picture quality is really great, but I need more practice focusing in on thing. It was exactly what I wanted and it fits our needs perfectly.
Overall it was ok. The images were quite sharp but the sound was never right. Sound would drop out after only a few seconds of replay. The on/off button is located in an anoying spot that requires two hands to turn it on - one to hold the camera securley and the other to press the tiny button on the top of the camera.The shutter/video button was located in the center of the control button group and unless you had tiny fingers it was difficult to press only the "take picture/video" button. It did not have onboard rechargable batteries and required two AAs. I did not have it long enough to see how long they last. I sent it back and asked for a refund towards another camcorder of different make.
Pros
Quality is excellent in lighted areas
Quantity is excellent with 8GB memory card
Sound is excellent too - Recorded sound sometimes buzzes, but possibly highly sensitive
Easy to switch from - video to photo to play to sound recorder (Mode) - probably never use sound recorder by itself
Easy to remove media through automatic computer recognition (Vista) without having to remove memory card
Lightweight, with carrying bag
Lots of Menu options, including capability of changing picture sizes (5 options) and video sizes (3 options)
Cons
Extremely poor videos/pictures in low light areas even with flash
No eye viewer, except screen
Uses akaline AA batteries (don't last), but purchased rechargeable batteries
Prefer case, instead of carrying bag (my preference)
Battery plate cover appears slightly fragile
No software/only decoder (HD-DV Decoder/renders OK) - not sure if this is standard
Definitely lacks some type of editing/burning software
Video in MP4 (MPEG-4), which is not shareable with others unless burned on DVD or converted - not sure if this is standard
Overall: I plan on experimenting further as this is my very first camcorder and I am very satisfied with purchase price
My nine year old is using this nifty little camcorder and camera and enjoying it a lot. It's easy to use and seems to be of good quality. I recommend it and think it's a great deal for the price.
