    Definitely a good buy for the price ( I paid $159-Black Friday). Good product for general recording. Only negative comment is this - it came up in a search for night vision; in the specs it says 'yes' for night vision; but it does not record in true night vision - in the dark. What it has is the ability to record in low light. Still happy with the purchase though. Not a good buy for anyone looking for a night vision recorder.

    Have purchased Handycams as they have evolved over the last 20 years. Always reliable and seem indestructible. I've never had to replace one, just upgrade. User friendly too!

    The handycam was fine. It was an open box purchase and i see why. The battery was replaced with an old one. The battery it came with lasted less than 2 hours and would not recharge. Had to buy a new one. Shame on whoever returned this.

    Great small camcorder, light weight but powerful. Takes sharp videos, the zoom is awesome, easy to use. Long lasting battery. The charger usb is hide on the strap pocket. I have to look a video to find it out how to charge it. You can charge it directly on the usb socket or plug it with an extension female usb cord.

    For the price you can't beat it. Not a ton of bells and whistles, but does what it is supposed to do. Would have been better if it came with a memory card though

    The camcorder is nice size, and light, so easily fits in any purse. However I was surprised how flimsy it felt, and trying to use the menu is very cumbersome. I'm considering returning it.

    With being a mom to four kids, we need a small handy camcorder to record their daily fun. This was a replacement to my Samsung camcorder which was my companion for about 3 years.

    Good camera for the price. Very light weight. Right now iMovie is not recognizing the camera when I connected it via the usb cord so I can't give it 5 stars.
