 Great Camcorder for the Price! February 7, 2010
ThisOnePlease
This is a fantastic camera, particularly for such a great price. It does a fantastic job at recording at 720p, and it has built in standard resolution modes for things like DVDs, or the web, so you just pick the one you want - very handy. I read a couple of reviews about these types of cameras that say that it is hard to stabilize the picture without a tripod - I don't know what they are talking about. The video is very stable, no jittering at all. The menus are easy to navigate, it is light and fits well in your hand, and the screen is great and can be moved around so you still see what you are shooting no matter what the angle. It records in low light very well. Great extra features like video out, HD video out, audio visual in (so you can record from a tv, gamebox or other source). It comes with all the cables you would need for any of the options. And as for being well-made - our kitten got hold of it (he liked the little handstrap) and ran it around the house, banging into walls and such, and it still works great, not a scratch on it. The only drawback is the sound - it needs a foam cover on it or something because it picks up sound almost too well - there is no filter. I would definitely recommend this!
 Great Entry level flash based HD camcorder! January 26, 2010
Master Crash (Buford, Ga, US)
We love this camcorder!
The price is excellent and if you understand you get what you pay for you won't be dissapointed...
It does't have a lot of features, but that's what makes it great, it's just really simple.
Open the display and press record to sart/stop! That's exactly what I wanted and that's what I got in this handy device...
With good lighting it has crisp video recording and the mic works pretty good too...
With a 4gig flash card we get 120 minutes of video... I wouldn't recommend a flash card bigger than 4gig since the battery doesn't hold past 90 minutes with average use...
I'd also recommend making short clips (2-5 minutes) even if the event you're recording is longer than that. Files get big fast and easier to author a DVD if clips are already parsed.
The camera starts up quickly and recording is near instant from the press of the button...
Aiptek could have saved time and not installed the flash and camera feature... It's not that great unless you don't want to carry a 2nd 'real' camera around. But handy sometimes when you just want to snap a picture of something you want to remember later...
Overall, I would recommend it and looking at getting one of their higer end models in the future...
Great camera for the price January 24, 2010

I bought this for $60. on sale, so it was a great buy. Haven't used it a whole lot yet. But, the few times I have it worked well and the picture was good on my HDTV.
The instrucions sucked, as I need good directions, but eventually figured it out.
Not bad for $70 January 24, 2010
S. Judkins
I have been interested in getting a digital video camera, and I couldn't resist the $70 price. For the money, I think it's well worth it. I'm not crazy about the software, but I'll probably just find better video editing software.
The camera works best in bright daylight, though it is difficult to use the viewfinder when it is bright. I thought the videos came out better using a tripod. I might experiment with a monopod later. In lower light, the image quality degrades. Perhaps there are settings to compensate, but I haven't experimented enough to find out.
I tried to use the recording feature to record from a VCR, but it would stop recording after a few minutes. I ended up buying dedicated hardware and software to record my old video tapes.
The still picture capabilities aren't bad. They are good enough that I won't pack a separate still camera as often as I might have in the past.
The battery lasts about 1.5 hours new. Search Amazon for low-cost batteries. I bought one for $1.35 plus $3 S&H.
Great little camera January 17, 2010
