A great camera!

 

A great camera!

This camera is affordable and takes pictures that parallel that of my Cannon Powershot 8MP camera. The screen is large, and the video is great! This is an excellent product!!

Worth the $

 

For $100 plus bucks, what do you want? It's well worth the $.

Looks cool! It's light and has a lot of bells and whistles for a $100 camera. Video quality is decent; sound quality is great. Also, the pictures taken by the camera are a lot better than noted in previous reviews

Pausing and restarting while filming videos causes loud clicking noises in the videos. I haven't figured out how to resolve this, but I am able to edit the noise out of the videos with video editing software

Great camcorder, but kept crashing, then stopped booting completely after 2 weeks!

 

Great camcorder, but kept crashing, then stopped booting completely after 2 weeks!

I agree with the previous reviews that this camcorder offers great value for money, in terms of features and image quality, which I found to be quite sharp. As also mentioned, the battery life was pretty good, I was able to get about 2.5 hrs of...
