Damn, that's a cool camcorder. Brings back many fond memories of my VHS camcorder from the 80's. Good times! Anyway, my daughters are aspiring YouTubers, tiktokers and whatever else is out there so I thought I'd buy them a camera. After much research and comparison, I chose this device for its characteristics and price. It didn't get as many reviews as some of the others, but I figured I could always return it if I didn't like it. Well I've been playing with it all day for the past 2 days since I got it and let me tell you that the ease of use and video quality from this entry-level camera is excellent! I'm so glad I got it and my daughters are so excited. I showed it to my brother and now he will buy one for his kids too haha.
