Coby Snapp

 

With the Coby Snapp mini camcorder, you get what you pay for. This is a good thing and a bad thing. If you plan to shoot a couple short videos with your friends or record your child's T-ball game, then this is a great camcorder. If you want to record...

The Coby Snapp's swivel display screen is convenient for filming at odd angles, and the touchscreen is simple to use

Although it's HD, the picture isn't the same excellent quality as our higher-ranked camcorders

This camcorder is a great buy for recreational videographers, but remember the cost and keep in mind that you get what you pay for.

I totally love this camera. For the price, it's absolutely awesome. Just a couple of days before I bought this, I found out that my class was going on a trip and we needed cameras for our projects. I was really scared that I didn't have a camera. But...

OK for the price

 

General: appearance and material has a cheap feeling. Even though it is a low price, but I expect a little better when other similar model does a better job in this area. Comes with carrying bag and lanyard cable. Very easy to use, switching between...

Good for beginners.

 

This little camera does what it is supposed to do. Picture quality is ok for it being 1.3 mega pixels. Audio quality on the other hand leaves something to be desired. It records audio decently except for the high pitch squeal that is in most of the...

Decent Mini Camcorder

 

Even though the Coby CAM3000 has a puny 1.3 MP pixels (1280 x 960), I'm pleasantly surprised that the quality of the video looks very descent on my 21" monitor (@ 1680 x 1050 screen resolution); it looks only very slightly pixelated - not bad for a low...

Mlfunction camera

After putting memory in the camera, the camera freezed and didn't function any more. Took the battery and memory out. Returned the battery back, the camera was not working. Returned the camera. Bad experience.
