Nice little camera for camera and photo

I chose these to upload to YouTube but I use them a lot more like a regular camera. It works great for YouTube but takes a while to load. You should definitely get a memory card, otherwise you will be left with very little storage space. A good zoom and close-up switch works well. For the money - I paid $70 - I can't complain. Oh, it also has room for an external microphone, which is why I bought it. It's been so long since I've used it, although I almost forgot. Gives you a much better choice…

Pros
  • Brilliantly made
Cons
  • A number of factors

Bad functionality for camcorder

I bought it to do internet video marketing. The video is AMAZING. Excellent quality, HD, easy to use. If you just want to take it, film it and upload it, do it. But if you want to download and edit on your computer. FORGET THAT > Takes forever and never loads properly. Then I couldn't stop the download process (after spending 5 minutes trying to stop the download). I had to completely restart my computer to get everything working again. The camera is very light, an unexpected bonus…

Pros
  • Looks good
Cons
  • Annoying

Good camera for what you get

I'll be making some YouTube videos and wanted something with an external mic connection that wouldn't break the bank. It filled that need until I realized I needed a camera with a tilting screen. I have since bought a Canon Vixia HF-R400 and this will be my main camera. However, in terms of usability, the camera is great. It has a nice touchscreen display that turns on and off instantly (better than my Flip Mino HD). I like that it has removable storage. As an external microphone, I use an…

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • I'll be silent
