2.0 out of 5 stars not satisfied, August 23, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Sharp VL-A10U 3" Color LCD Hi8 ViewCam (Electronics)

I've owned the camera two years and it's needed repair twice. The camera must be sent off and takes about six weeks to two months for return. It is now needing repair once more ... also it is difficult to see images in bright sunlight.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Camera, June 12, 2000

This camera overall is a great deal. I got this camera mainly for its four special effects and title writer which work quite nicely. The remote makes watching tapes extremely easy. The only downside is that the picture quality could be a little better. It's a great deal though if you want an inexpensive camera to make home videos on!
