Fast Shipping for Camera & Photo

Works well. The only problem I see is that the battery doesn't last long. The indicator lights up all the time, indicating that the entire battery life has expired. It's quite old so that's to be expected.

Pros
  • GOLS Certified
Cons
  • Slightly Wrinkled

Complete scam, the camera doesn't work!

Camera not working. Insert the cassette, close it, then the camera will reopen with an on-screen message to remove the cassette. Regardless of the cartridge used (all camera sizes of course) the problem is with the camera, not the specific cartridge.

Pros
  • Durable finish
Cons
  • Contact seller

Product matched description and arrived on time

I was looking for a replacement camera as our camera had long since stopped working and the family holidays were the perfect time to catch lots of tape Band to see days we were all younger and the kids were just babies. Thanks for the fast delivery

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Some flaws

The camera did not work properly. All playable tapes, including those left in the camcorder by the seller, skipped during playback. I ended up borrowing a friend's camcorder and all my tapes played just fine. So I have to conclude that this particular camcorder was defective. I hope the seller will refund my money for the purchase.

Pros
  • cool product
Cons
  • Almost everything is ok

you can happen - Video

I bought it and owned it for two days. It's a decent MiniDV, but you get more for the price! Noise was a big problem. The motor is just loud and barely audible in quiet scenes. Also, the recorded video was of really good quality. However, there was a problem loading the tape. It didn't eject properly for some strange reason. I took it back after finding an offer for the Sony HC20 (which runs much better/smoother than the Canon). The only reason I got it was because it was recommended by anโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Delivery was very fast
Cons
  • Little repairability

The picture is not very sharp, there are better options

After returning a defective Sony Handycam (sound was broken) we chose Canon as it had a good combination of features and price. We particularly liked the built-in ability to convert from our old analog camcorders. However, we were disappointed that our first few videos didn't play very clearly on the TV. Video quality was bland, kind of blah, and almost looked like there was some sort of blur feature (it wasn't). The [.] synopsis suggests using widescreen to increase resolution; We don't have a

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • I won't say anything

Good camera for beginners - if you can find one for $200 or less

This is a good camcorder for those just starting out with digital video. If you already have a camcorder or are looking for something to create movies suitable for submission to Sundance, this camcorder probably isn't for you. Pros: Very easy to learn how to use - READ THE INSTRUCTIONS! It is very easy to convert and control with Mac OS X and iMovie. The battery lasts a long time - about 2 hours of shooting (that's 2 DV cassettes). Captures acceptable still images but not print quality to share

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Some cons
