I ordered this video recorder for my eight year old daughter who has a flare for making hilarious videos of herself. So, when income tax time came around I knew the perfect gift would be a video camera... I had looked at the Vado (See link below) because my mom has it and had gotten it from Amazon and it is amazing quality, but it lacked the capability of capturing photos. I looked at the Polaroids and several others and thought that this sounded like a great item at a great price. It was all me or my daughter could talk about for the next few days. I even paid for the one day shipping so she could start sharpening her reporting skills. We were both so thrilled about getting it. Then I opened the package and I was immediately disappointed by even the quality of the materials it was made of. I didn't let that first impression affect me. She of course was thrilled. She immediately starts shooting a video and is quickly confused by an F that won't go off the screen (wasn't anywhere in the pamphlet they send). I found a memory card in her older video camera and gave it to her and the F went away. That's how we discovered that 8 seconds of video was all the memory this camera could handle. Then it's time to upload the videos and photos and the software that they provided didn't want to work. I finally uploaded with my own program and the quality of all the pictures were horrible. The camera I had bought her two years ago from the kids section that was some off brand was better quality video then this. Some of hte files wouldn't upload? It gave me some error message saying that there was something wrong with them that they couldn't be uploaded. When I play any of the videos that actually DO upload, before they even finish playing there is a message that pops up and says that Windows media Player encountered a problem while playing the video and shuts down. I, of course, never read the fine print and now discover that I will only recoup 85% of the money I spent on this. I am extremely disappointed with this product and with Amazon for their policy. I don'jt know that I will use Amazon again. I wish that there was a way to attach files so that you could see first hand the quality.

Pro's - Works great in bright sunshine
Con's - Works poorly in house light, Manufacture should design one with a flash unit built in.

Cost - Great price but what you gain in savings, you lose in functionality.

We ordered this for our 15 year old son. He found it very easy to use, the pictures and video are very clear and are easy to transfer to his computer. We wish there was a a lighted flash feature but he has used a flashlight and that lightens up night videos a bit. A great product for the money!
