Don't waste your money!

 

At first I was in love with this camera. It is lightweight enough to carry comfortably. I used it for still pictures and video on family vacation and was very happy with the results. However, after it was put away for 6 months I cannot record for more...

Good Camcorder: reliable, good image quality

IT'S A DECENT VIDEO CAMERA WITH 12MP STILLS.
