This is a dual HD Video camcorder and still image camera. Takes an SD card. (Must be a SDHC for some resolutions). Ease of Use. Good value for money. Comes with AV cable for non-hd television.

No protective case available yet, the menu and function buttons are exposed when not in use.

Its light, compact and very easy to use. Some great features and an all round great camcorder.

This camcorder does not come with a case and due to the shape of the camcorder it can be difficult to find a case that fits it perfectly.

Slim, fits easily into your pocket. Great still images - no need to take a camera out anymore for quick snaps. Build quality and the fact you get stereo recordings. The sound on playback is very good and also HD playback of videos.

It's nice to have the extra digital zoom but it does pixalate so not really worth using without a tripod. (But...The optical is excellent with loss of image quality).

Very easy to use, light with straightforward controls. The image stabiliser is very useful.

The only down side is the battery life, but a spare battery helps solve this problem

very compact and excellent quality video and pictures
