Great Camera! by cbbarber on amazon.com Jun 13, 2012

This camera was a birthday gift from my husband. I set up the HD recording at my bird feeders. You can record and then save pictures from the recording. One of the best features and ease of use is out of this world. Absolutely easiest camera I have ...

Nice Camcorder and Projector by PeaceForAll on amazon.com May 28, 2012

I wanted a camcorder to record my kids school performances. This camera performed really well in low light auditorium. I liked its zoom and its stable picture even when zooming. The kids had lot of fun watching their performance in their bedroom wall ...

Terrible Image Stabilization and Worse Support by itsaz on amazon.com May 12, 2012

Steadyshot is a joke. I mounted the camera in my car and experienced horrible image shake on city streets and highway speeds. Changing from Steadshot ACTIVE to STANDARD to OFF SHOWED no differences. Recording in HD or Standard mode also made no difference. ...

Incompatible with Mac by Brian on amazon.com Jul 7, 2012

This camera takes nice still images, and has good color, but for video there is something definitely wrong. And, after all, this is a video camera. Any time there is any movement, either the subject or panning the camera, the edges are all pixelated. ...

Newer doesn't always mean better by Joe Jr. on amazon.com Apr 2, 2012

I could not wait to get my hands on this camcorder. I thought it would be an improvement to the one that I have, (the Sony HDR-CX150) but was I wrong. I am going to give the most thorough and honest review that I can give. When I read all the details ...

I was extremely disappointed in both image quality and overall functionality...Second, the quality of the video was extremely good...In some applications there is no substitute for a good external microphone, and this camera is compatible with industry standard microphones...
