I have just returned from a 15 month deployment in IRAQ, as a Medevac Flight Medic, Picture quality is outstanding,The video quality is good, the audio quality is good. it made it through the bitter winter, dust storms, and of course my running through the rough terrain to get to my heros, This camera did a great job, I will be sending a couple of the pictures off to National Geographic as they are that good, its sister camera is labeled by sony and is price about 100 dollars more than the vivitar, but has the exact same bells and whistles, kinda like the difference between chevy and gmc. none really

I had no problems whats so ever. It came on time, brand new, for $115 less than store price.

I purchased this item as a gift and it was the perfect item to get. So simple to use but very good quality pictures come from it, I would reccomend this to others.

This camera is ok but I've used much much better ones. It seems cheap. The zoom does not always work. It is slower than I would like.

I was first given this camera this past christmas from my aunt. I loved it from day one....it was stolen from me a few months later. I had a chance to get a totally different camera but I loved the Vivitar 8400 so much I had to buy another one.

For the most part, this camera takes decent pictures. I chose it because it uses AA batteries as opposed to having to plug it in and recharge it after every use.

The only complaint I have about it is that when I record a movie, a set of two AA batteries is drained in about 2-3 minutes. There is a slot for an AC adapter, but the product doesn't come with an AC adapter. The adapter is nearly impossible to find online. I say "nearly" because I haven't been able to find it on a handfull of online retailers. I am beginning to think it is just a fabled legend. Vivitar UK sells it online, but it is listed in British currency. As far as purchasing it from a US retailer, I have not yet found one.
