    This little camcorder was a replacement from a Nikon digital camera and from what my daughter use it for, it's 5 times better. Also we were able to capture her graduation ceremony with it and I must say it has great video quality! We're satisfied.....

    Bought this camera to take videos of family at Disneyland. Ease of use was excellent did not have to worry about any difficulty for others to use either. Had great time and enjoyed family without worrying about having to use a difficult camera.

    Still getting used to the video camera. The one feature that I do like is that you don't have to flip a switch to go from video to pictures, you just press a button. Haven't figured out how to view videos yet.

    Needed a basic camcorder to record in HD. Performs very well. Easy to use. Each format uploads easily with supplied USB cord. This is the second camcorder of this model I have owned. Other broke due to a fall while attached to a tripod.

    This is used for at least one hour of recording time and i can say the battery does last without having to be plugged in. you will however need to buy a camera stand if needed since it doesn't fit most. However, good value buy

    I would had given this camera a 5. However, it has no remote control capability. I need it to do SELF videos to put online. However, the zoom is spectacular in fact I want to give it a 4.5 but don't know how .
