great dvd maker

This is as good as any dvd cams out there. Awesome editing ability in the camera itself. Easy to playback and edit, easy to formate for direct play to dvd player. The option to record in higher definition is great as well, though you need the right type of disc, which is what I reccomend... fyi...
Great for ease of use and user friendly displays etc.

Camcorder

This product was in great shape, I just bought the battery and charger for it, it works fine, very nice deal for me, I could not afford it any other way. This cam works as good as any new one, and easy to figure out. It zooms in and out with the touch of a finger and records your movie directly onto a dvd, small one abut my dvd player plays them without a problem.

you can do it if you really try!! EAZY,read ,learnshoot

EZ!
Plain and simple, read the manual and it'z great. On in a moment and once ya got those fingers learned, shooting damn good video! Caught the kats kickin'kitty kan!!

Go for it, you'll like it, I got me a tripod and it helps...learn the zoom cause it'z a little tricky, but I know you'll git it!

The charger's a gas, just plug in an' there ya go, and the battery held 180 min? wow!! I've got a bag, so it's easy to swing away on the road, but I think I'd git one if I wanted to save it from destruction....have fun, and 'B' safe...nm
