I got it to shoot videos for youtube and other sites. Unfortunately I get errors when I try to play a video on my PC or transfer a video file. When I try to play I get: This file cannot be played. This can be because the file type is not supported, the file extension is incorrect, or the file is corrupt. When I try to transfer it, the file transfer hangs. I tried 3 PCs, different memory cards (32GB SanDisk Class 10 cards), different mini USB cables and restarted the PC and camera. When I was able to transfer the video, the audio/video quality was good. This camera would be perfect for my needs at a great price. But a camera that records videos that can only be viewed in the camera is useless, so it all comes back. Too bad.
