4.0 out of 5 stars Great HD camcorder for the price., March 18, 2009

By	Angus V. Desveaux - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I got this camorder and have to say this is a great buy. Light weight and easy to use (menu system is straight forward). I would recomend using the USB cable adapter NOT the power adapter for the first time charge. (Red circle indicator MUST be lit). The Lithuim battery holds a 45min charge
otherwise. I would upgrade it to a higher capacity battery.

Its great in full light or out door situations, unless you get a light.
The mic is not all that fantastic either. It has a tripot mount on the bottom though, so there are brackets you can buy that have multible shoes
for lights and mics.

This has a external mic jack (worth the price alone).

Its a little delicate so you have to be careful but a nice camcorder for the price.

I would buy it again!!!

4.0 out of 5 stars Great first camera, April 27, 2009

By	Ian C. Gibson "Deltree" (Pennsylvania) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

While I've had the camera for a few weeks now I haven't used too much but I'm pleased with my tests so far. It's very lightweight and easy to shoot with. The on-board mic isn't the best, but it's on par with most other camcorders, the mic jack is nice and makes up for the internal one though. Oddly enough I've used it more for audio recording than video >.>

Strangely enough this is also an mp3 player... I don't know why every electronic device has to have mp3 playback, but this has it incase you have too much room on your SD card and want to listen to some tunes.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not your Best choice, April 12, 2009

By	C. Ward "Dragonfire" (Miami, FL USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This camera is not your best puchase at all! The only good thing is that it's light. If there is a better offer take it even if it cost more. It is not worth chancing it. I returned this camera after one day for the following reasons.

1. The mic SUCKS and the external mic port is no better no matter what you do to the mic. There are no internal setting for the external or internal mic in any way.

2. It isn't true HD at all. The screen is all fuzzy and so grainy in some places it's just a mess of colors.

3. If you have a mac computer lucky but it's not compatible with any windows program. It recorders in .mov format.

4. It has NO stabalization. Even on a tripod it shakes.

This camera was a terrible purchase, I suggest you go by a $[...] TRUE HD camera instead. Believe me it's worth it!
