    Researched extensively for the best camcorder for a first time user and this model was rated the best. I was able to record Christmas and New Years celebrations without any problems. Very user friendly. I highly recommend this camcorder!

    After much research, this camera met all my needs for a reasonably priced HD video camera that works well in both indoor and outdoor situations. I also selected this model because of the 32GB internal drive as well as SD card capability, letting me use the highest recording resolution on all day trips. So far, I am very happy with this purchase.

    Nice video camera that provides the basic videography but does lack some of the wanted items. The onboard Hard Drive is nice to have as many newer one done have one. The WiFi options aren't the easiest to work.

    Used the camcorder for Christmas and it works great. The internal memory is nice knowing if you run out of space on your card you have some back up memory to keep the memories rolling.

    The camera was easy to use and good sound & video quality. However, the battery life is not great. Downloading files unto computer takes a long time. Besides that, pretty good camera.

    Pleasantly surprised by the quality and battery life on this little camera. I expected "meh" for the price but it is fabulous. Excellent in low light, compensates well with movement, takes pictures while recording at the touch of a button. Recommended.

    I bought this camera to video my son's soccer games. A lot of the games end when it is dark out. The videos are clear and stable for the most part, even with me behind the camera.

    a good cam for the money and the 32 gb of internal memory is great but FYI- This camcorder has a feature that apparently cannot be adjusted where it clips recordings at the 44 minute mark. This creates multiple files which can complicate editing in post. If recording longer than that, be advised.
