Verified Buyer

Pros: Great Zoom, Zoom range/performance, Easy to Use, Mobility Cons: Poor In Low Light, Poor Image Quality, Poor Sound, Poor Still Image Other thoughts: 1080P video playback is actually fairly good quality but the playback pauses about 1/2 second every 10 seconds or so. Distracting! Do not plan on using this as a digital camera as the still image quality is incredibly poor.

Pros: Nice Size Cons: Software problems, Poor Image Quality, Complicated To Operate Other thoughts: i bought this item because of its size and simple to operate. it was not that simple. i did some recording then tried to down load to my computor it would only save pictures to thier mediabrowser Le software. i could not transfer to my videos folder. also i could not upload to youtube. i kept getting error msgs. worked on it for hours to try and figure it out.[...] i also found these cameras online at various websites for a fraction of what i paid for it. i would do some extensive research before buying this model of camera. i wish i did.

Pros: Easy to Use Cons: No image stabilization, Poor In Low Light, Poor Still Image Other thoughts: camera takes ok video but pics are shaky. zoom results in grainy pictures, start/stop button is super sensitive.
