5 of 5 excellnet value Monday, July 28, 2003
A Customer from Canada  

The features on this camera are really cool. I was amazed at how well the nite pix mode worked (you can literally still see in pitch darkness). the digital effects are great and it's a general good value. the only gripe I have is that the still digital camera mode is quite a bit blurry, but as long as you hold the camera really steady so it doesn't blur when you push the button they're passable for sending over the web.

5 of 5 Awesome Camcorder! Friday, April 11, 2003
cho from Ellicott City, MD  
I did not expect that this camcorder to be this super. With the best values in the market, no other companies can compete with this one. It is very easy to use and got all the functions that $1000 camcorders have such as still image camera, image stablization, back-lite, night-shot, and stereo mic and etc. I am very pleased with my new toy. Also, It seems it has very long battery life. I used it for ~2 hours, still it has full battery life. For the best, I like the AC Adapter's design, slick idea. I recommend this to other buyers!
