Nothing bad. Would have been nice to have received a case included in the price.

size, image quality, functions

expensive pro duo memory cards, no hdmi cable, no carry case.

very user friendly,great videos on standard def too

can't do all what the software says it can do i.e transfer from computer back to memory stick

Excellent picture quality in bright conditions V Easy to use Really good intuitive menus systems

Low light picture is not so good without going into menus to adjust shutter etc Microphone is a bit poor No expandability options - external microphone/light

High definition. Fits into PS3 slot for instance playback. Auto focus and exposure just by pressing the screen. Good zoom. Shake is really noticeable despite some complaints.

Small memory card supplied. Hard to tell whether videos have copied to PC (mine is a little slow though)

Tiny!

Anything bad is a trade-off because of the size.
