Customer Review: Works Great for My Needs
Summary: 4 Stars
I bought this little unit as a take-anywhere video camera to record those day-to-day, once-in-a-lifetime moments of my child that you usually only catch as a memory in your head. It's not the camera you want to use for big events like birthdays or holidays, because the video quality is not good enough. But it's perfect for casual outings to the park, or places you may not want to take your expensive video equipment.
It easily fits in my pocket, so no matter where we're going, I take it along. And since it was so cheap, I don't have to worry about breaking it. I even take it close to the pool--although it is NOT waterproof or water resistant.
It does not give the same high-quality video as my expensive miniDV tape camcorder, or my expensive Canon S2 IS digital camera, but the quality is sufficient for the price.
I can take tons of video on my 512 meg SD card (I calculated 45 minutes on the highest resolution), but have yet to use all of the card in one outing) and then I can upload it to my child's website, or burn it onto a DVD.
Some people have complained about the battery/sd card door, but although it is hard to close, I don't anticipate it ever breaking.
PROS:
Inexpensive.
Small enough to take just about anywhere.
Super-long battery life (using nimh rechargeables).
No tapes!!
Records in easy-to-edit avi files.
CONS:
Results are poor if the camera is moved around too quickly while filming. Sometimes you get a "warp" effect if you move too much, too quickly.
No lens cap.
Awkward handling since the lcd screen flips up rather than swinging out to the side as in a typical camcorder.
Terrible in low-light conditions.
In the month that I've owned it, I've captured lots of memories that I would otherwise never been able to see again or share with others.
I was skeptical about it when I purchased it, but this thing is a keeper!
