For the price of this product it works very well. There is no view finder so that can be frustrating and the manual focus doesn't work very well but the picture quality is alright.
Well I haven't had lot of camcorders per say but I'm in to movie making and the fire wire part of it is a little a annoying but man It's not even an hd camera and it has amazing quality. I would definitely recommend this camera to anybody.
I bought this camera for an elderly woman who wanted to videotape sessions at church. She seems pretty happy with the camera, from the standpoint of never having owned a videocamera, The camcorder is very easy to use. Menu is easy to navigate, and understand.I highly recommend this product.
Menu is easy to navigate, and understand. It was around the same price as this one. Colors were very nice, no yellow or greenish tint at all, could see details very well. It's virtually undetectable in the video. The camcorder is very easy to use. At this price range, I didn't expect much, but what I got was AMAZING, and exceeded my expectations. I didn't expect a lot, but having owned other camcorders, I expected something a little better.This one caught my eye for several reasons: Konica lens, no viewfinder, firewire link, extended battery time (1.5 hours versus most at 1 hour) and the price was right.
I record in mostly low light, and some times those video can come out very grainy, or the lighting is green or yellow and goes in and out of focus. The picture from this camcorder in low light was very clear, not grainy at all that I could tell on a 32" Vizio, after using the auto light feature to record. I recently had a bad experience purchasing another (quality name brand, begins with p) Mini-DV camcorder. I had the camcorder on a tripod, on a table. People kept bumping the table, at times for an extended time. At the very worst bumps, you may see a very slight jump, but only if you are really looking for it. This is the third MiniDV camcorder I've owned in the past 3 years, the most affordable, and by far the best. My video uploaded seamlessly into my 06 iMac, using iMovie HD, ideal for Mac users.I truly love this camcorder.
I was really disappointed at the extremely poor quality, and distorted image. Some nice features like black and white and sepia. The zoom was very smooth and it kept in focus very well zooming. The sound is very nice as well.Another amazing feature was the image stabilization. My only complaint is turning the camcorder on and off is a little difficult, the button seems stiff. I highly recommend this product.
It is easy to use. But I realize there is no installation CD included in the box. Other than that, so far so good. I only had it for 3 weeks.
