5 out of 5 stars great camera   August 9, 2007
 3 out of 7 found this review helpful

right out the box easy to use and with 6.1 mp stills a great back up to my digital camera. a great cool easy to use camera


5 out of 5 stars absolutely amazing!   August 6, 2007
 5 out of 6 found this review helpful

It's awesome! The 10x optical zoom proved more than sufficient for my purposes. The interface is pretty easy to play with and the buttons on the device are on perfect locations, that you don't have to strain yourself at all, while shooting movies, or changing options or reviewing clips. I don't like the night mode that much, but it still works decently.


5 out of 5 stars Easy to use and time saver   July 31, 2007
 6 out of 6 found this review helpful

Save so much time instead of transferring to the computer from 8mm and you can delete and edit as you go unlike dvd models. I don't feel that I have to be choosy of what I record because there is so much space and I can delete if I don't like it. The touch screen is awesome and easy to navigate. There are not many video effects but the quality makes up for it. Still image capturing is a bit of guess work trying to snap the shot and you end up snapping a different shot. For still image I still use my digital camera, but the still image quality of the camcorder is really nice if you can get a good steady shot. Over all, I love it and take it everywhere with me since it's small enough. Not crazy about the battery life but have not yet experienced a dead battery when shooting.

I have found the camcorder in question to be of excellent quality and I am absolutely satisfied with the results.
However in your ads. about this camcorder you have not mentioned any where the the product is compatible with NTSC colour system TV if used directly with TV of NTSC system.
Since I have to use this camcorder in INDIA only, this wonderful camcorder
unfortunately will be of no use to me . This problem would have not been there if I had known that it is not workable in India.
Please let me know as to how you can help me to get out of this problem.
As far as the product is concerned,it is a wonderful camera giving excellent result and I would love to retain it.
Hoping to have a favourable prompt reply.
Thanks

xcellewnt results and I would love to retain.



4 out of 5 stars Great Camera-But not good in high volume enviroments<112db   July 23, 2007
 2 out of 4 found this review helpful

UPDATE-I purchased the HST1 mic,and solved my loud music woes up to 112db avg.c-weighted,anyway,the external mic rolls off at 150Hz,so the bass is lacking,but I,m Happy.I love my new Camera.I have owned it for a couple months now.The video is great.The built in Camera mic is great up to 105db.But recently I tried shooting video at a rock concert,and had a couple problems.First the Camera doesnt like high volume music.The memory was having a hard time writng to the hard disc,and keep getting "buffering overload" warnings,and would have to restart the video.And the Audio track was completely overloaded and distorted.-((This was Corrected with the external HST1 Mic-))Its so bad the the whole video ended up in the garbage. But I kept the pictures ,of course.The mic reference was on the LOW Setting,but it seems Low isn't low enough.Be advised,this is very loud music ,probably closing in on 115-120db at the camera.Other than this problem,I love the Camera so far!! Some camera's are good for loud music,The Hard Drive seems to have problems-buffering overload- at avg.112db,or louder,at camera.Maybe the vibration is causing the problem.Disabling the drop sensor did nothing to help.
