Needed a really efficient, but economical, camcorder for my good friends who were about to have their first child. After surveying and examining multiple units, we decided that this unit: used an SD-type memory card that is reasonably priced; had excellent dependability ratings; had long-life battery commendations; had all the necessary lens options; had easily accessible controls; and possessed every function to satisfy a first-time user. I was somewhat hesitant to get a 'used' product, but my seller obtained and resold display units from Best Buy Stores.... and also offered really competitive pricing (one-half retail) as well as an inspection period with return privilege. After receiving and inspecting it, I am convinced that this may well be a "Best Buy of the Year" for me! The new-looking camera came with all the paperwork and even an EXTRA cable...all in the original carton and packing. The first-time users had no difficulties at all using the camera's basic functions and even the utility functions, and were very satisfied with the zoom, panning area, color reproduction, ease of use, portability, sturdiness, and picture stability. We really don't know how a better product could be obtained...even at an increased price. We give it an A+ rating !Read full review
This camcorder I'd the smallest and most lightweight of all the cameras I've looked at. That includes Sony, JVC and Samsung. Even though its small, it's Optical Zoom has a strong range, 78 power. This is important because digital zooms often degrade the picture quality as you zoom in. I am very happy with it's performance and even more happy with it's size and weight!

We haven't used this a lot since we have purchased it, but just in fiddling around with the zoom and the sound and the still shots - We are very pleased. The only thing that would be better, is if the battery lasted longer. It lasts about 40 minutes. To buy the extended life battery is about another $60-$70 dollars. I would recommend this product to anyone asking me.
I had checked out several camcorders. This one seemed to be what I needed to video my interests. Like most new items like cameras, I-pods, cell phones, you need to be part of the young crowd coming up with computers, etc. I'm near 76 years old. I have done fine with film cameras and camcorders, but I have yet to transfer what I have recorded, as I await one of the young members of the family to sit down and show me how to see all that I have shot so far. I like the camera, it records , it is small and handy, and one day I'll sit back and see what I've got stored in this camcorder.I rated this item as average because I haven't seen the finished product.
Have yet to use product. My son has the same camera and we use them for wildlife video. Great zoom and clarity. Look forward to using mine. Great tool for hunting . Works so much better for long range than the HD models.
