5.0 out of 5 stars Cool Cam, December 2, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Sharp VLE630U Hi8 Viewcam Camcorder (Electronics)
This camera is so fun, not to mention affordable! It is light, durable (Ive even dropped it a few times) and totally easy to use. I take it everywhere. Be sure to get extra batteries though because they wear out before you know it.

1.0 out of 5 stars not long lasting, December 1, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Sharp VLE630U Hi8 Viewcam Camcorder (Electronics)
My Sharp viewcam broke about 6 months after the 1 year warranty. I loved the ease of the camera, but now it would cost me more to repair it than it was to buy it. I took great care of the camera and used it often to film my new baby. One day I tried to watch a tape I recorded a day before and the tape got stuck in the camera and wouldn't do anything! I would absolutely shop around with other brands before buying this Sharp product.

4.0 out of 5 stars Perfect, except for the battery life, July 13, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Sharp VLE630U Hi8 Viewcam Camcorder (Electronics)
The best thing about the Sharp ViewCam camcorders -- all of them -- is that they allow you to record family events while still taking part in them. With the camera discreetly held at waist level rather than in front of your face, you can still be a part of the conversation. People find it less intimidating, too, so they tend to behave more naturally. You can also flip the LCD 180 degrees, and record yourself.

The only downside is that the LCD sucks up batteries, so buy a spare set.
