Awful product, plus horrible customer service/warranty service

 

I purchased the camera October of 2009 for $140 and it lasted me 10 before becoming unusable. Several buttons on the camera completely stopped working, including the Record button.

Great handheld camera!

 

I went from having one of those big, bulky cameras that you never wanted to bring to this and it is great! I can easily stick it in the bag and wrap it around my arm.
