Easy to Use
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This camera is easy to use. You don't have to have advanced computer skills to use. It loads into your computer easily. The only bad thing is the sound, it doesn't record sound as good as other camcorders.

Great camera at low cost

Love it!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My daughter loves this camera and so do I. Granted your phone can take pictures just as good however this camera is easy to hold and to work. Only caveat is it very light almost cheap feeling. Think my phone weighs more.
