  • Old but useful

    I bought this older video camera to use in my work doing live bee removals. Primarily for the enhanced zoom features so that I can get a good look at how bees are doing in remote locations I have set trap boxes for them to remove them from structures such as house roofs, chimneys, soffit, building decks, etc... I can take ok still photos, but more importantly, very good videos to study bees behavior off site and to show clients progress or problems. I only have to charge it once a week, maybe twice in lots of use and it holds the charge very well. Buying a brand new cam for this use wasn't worthwhile but I have been pleasantly surprised at the performance of this camera.

  • Excited

    I bought this for my daughter to start recording events of my three-year-old granddaughter's life. She's very excited to get to use it once we are able to get the right size memory card because the one included with this set to make it a more attractive deal is not the one that is compatible with this camera. So I can't quite rate the ease-of-use on this product since we haven't really been able to do that yet but the one picture I did take as a sample turned out really sharp and clear. I am sure she is going to enjoy it

  • Small compact easy to use but screen so small hard to see on.

    Screen so small that zooming in does not show a clear picture. I will try on a different monitor with a cable that I just purchased to see if that helps. Otherwise very lightweight and easy to use.

  • Camcorder puts phone videos to shame

    Very easy to use camcorder with more detail than a phone can ever provide. Really like how easily the Handycam connects to a computer for quick uploads. Lightweight and priced right. Not likely to go tech obsolete either. Look at a Sony Handycam if you want better video clips than you get with a phone

  • 100% satisfied

    I had previously owned this same model I liked how it functions. Mine eventually quit working after much use. I still have an adaptable tripod, and a quick dvd burner. This product shipped quickly and was packaged very well protected.
