this video camera sux, i thot i t was going to be good, turns out it was horrible. YOu cant use it unless you have REALLY GOOD source of light or else the picture is now clear. Whenever i take videos its so complex to figure out how to watch them cuz the buttons dont work unless you press really hard. This is by far a dont buy

There should be a light when using it for video.

WHEN I BOUGHT THIS I DIDNT EXPECT IT WOULD BE SO GOOD AND OVERALL I END UP USING IT ALMOST EVERYDAY

I bought this camera on clearance just for a throw around camera (for those times I don't trust myself with my good camera). The picture quality isn't bad, the video quality is nice but the lack of optical zoom is a downer. Also, it doesn't have a movie light. Overall, a nice little guy for the money.

this camera is good but it has bad quality recording so i threw it in the trash

I bought a camera for reports.Oh my god it was awsome it had a good mic.Just maybe a little more feautures wood be godd,buy overall i tottaly recommend this camera.

I bought 2 cameras for my children and they both take great pics and video. Very happy with my purchase.

I thought this camera was the greatest. i dropped this about a million times and it didn't break. i really recommend this

absolutely worst digital/camcorder even for the money to buy. pictures have gold/yellow tones and ALL video clips are black can only see moving images

I am a lover of electronics, I just wanted a simple mini camcorder to record viedo clips. This camcorder recordes fine but if you record indoors the pictures comes out dark and the volume is low. If you have any background noise you will not hear yourself at all. Not happy with the product. I am returning it and purchasing the sanyo

when i got this camcorder i loved it because of all of the neat features it has but never go to the format option in the system menue because it will delete all videos and pictures

I received this 5 in 1 as a christmas present from a co-worker. I love it! I took it on vacation and already 2 people want to go by it as a present for someone they know. My only dislike would be that the camera sucks up alot of batteries. Look into getting rechargable ones.

it's great. i got it for my birthday, and my brother wants one just like it. i already went through two sets of batteries, so i reccomend getting rechargable batteries. i love it. it would make a good christmas present for any age.

all around a great value for your money and excellent features

this is the best digital camera i have ever used in my 39 years

The still picture quality despite what people have said about this camera is EXCELLENT! That alone was worth the money. Only thing I found lacking was the zooming clarity when in video mode. Not a lowlight videocam for sure. Recommend rechargeable batteries and extra sets due to rapid battery drain

My daughter loved it in the store and I wanted a digital camera. Yes the battery power is a drain but it is fun to use and worth it. My daughter will get it when I get my birtday present

This is an amazing little product with a whole lot of elegant engineering and capability that went into this package with excellent form factor as well as performance. I now carry mine everywhere. This is the perfect video bloggers tool. Except for the audio, (no place to plug in a better mic... and volume at highest range is not loud enough)the video is good enough and flexible enough to produce alternative television programming with this remarkable little device that fits right in the palm of your hand. The controls and menu functionally are nicely thought out... At under $100 for all this, ...anyone can now afford to produce their own television programming...and shoot excellent high resolution digital stills..and push the exposure (via EV controls). When you buy this make sure that you also buy one of RadioShack's rechargeable AA - battery set up and at least a 1.0 GB SD card. This takes two AA's and they run down rather quickly when shooting video. Batteries will charge back up in 30 minutes so with a few extra recharged batteries, you are good to go. I love this... device and it's small form factor and price potentially can change the entire personal video landscape.

This item is great. YES it DOES have a flash so don?t listen to the others (even though it took me a wile to find) It?s easy to use and is great for beginners. The only bad thing about it is that it eats batteries like packman. But besides that I would recommend this item to ANYONE.

I think that this a great product especially as a digital camera. It is very easy to use and takes good quality photos. It also has a mp3 function and can be used as a web cam. It cannot but used for filming at night very well but you can use the flash to take pictures at night. I highly recommend it for a low cost digital camcorder

I just got mine the other day I use it all the time,it is a great camera,it does have a flash.I suggest you read the manuel on the CD that came with the product,so you can learn how to use it properly,GREAT DEAL.

First off, this camera does have a flash. The manuel is very vague, but it comes with a cd that has a much more in depth manuel on it. The pictures come out a little dark without the flash, but as long as you use the flash they are fine. This camera works great and does everything that it is sopposed to do and more.

This camera is a great starter. Yes the batteries don't last as long. The pictures turn out great in the dark. That's an awesome feature. Just make sure you use the flash on the left side of the screen. My only problem is the instruction were too vague.

well this product is preetty kool ..at fist. it takes pics and videos.. but the pics arent that clear.. and if you dont have the perfect light.. the pic doesnt turn out good. the videos work very well but the sound doesnt go very loud. overall.. if oyu dont have a memory chip.. it d=holds almost nothing.i would ddefinatly consider having that once get it.

I just got this yesterday. For the price it does many things. Low light performance is pretty much non-existent but what can you expect of a camera at this price. I like the fact that it does not use tape. It is easy to use. For those that cannot find the flash, it does have flash so they should read the manual. I have had no issues with the pictures either. One thing that I have observed is that it feels a little weak. I think it does what its supposed to for its price.

I just got this camera and I love it. Some people say it doesn't have a flash but it does they just don't know how to use it. This is my second camera and I really enjoy it.

this camera is such a waste of money. the batteries dont last long, the pictures all have a read tint, vidoes turn out dark, NO FLASH, no nightvision. everything is wrong wrong wrong. i exchanged it for a Casio Exilm Z60. that camera acually has all the qualities i WANT!

I just brought the camera and I don't understand why it doesn't have a night vision light or a flash. It wasn't that expensive but to get it home to find out there is no flash I was disapointed. Plus the batteries don't last but like 5 minutes, that's a rip off for real. It needs a charger or something.

It is a good product in term of pictures and vidio, but the thruth is that in less than 30 day my mode button was damage. batteries run to fast if you are going to a trip i recomend that you take two more pack.

This little camera is great. My friend and i share the camera and we have had so much fun with this thing. It is even better that it had MP3 because i was able to listen to music on trips. I recommend this camera to anyone

Worst product without flash

My young daughter loves to make movies and this product is a great value at its current price (rebate). The camera has manual focus (not really needed given its depth of field) and only digital zoom. However, these are small nits compared to the very good image and video quality. No - the color is not as good as our 5 MP Canon digital camera - but it cost 3X as much and isn't as good a video camera (can't zoom while filming, for example). This camera is one of those combinations of price/features that amazes me. If you need the pentultimate photo/video - then spend many times more on something else but if you just want a very nice inexpensive video/still camera this is the ticket.

Great camera, wish it could hook up to a digital photo printer. Not a long battery life, uses 2 double AA's

This camera was okay. I have owned many cameras by many different companies and this one isn't one of my favorites. I have had some difficulty with the lighting, audio, and getting the right angles down with this cause it's such an awkward shape.

Received as a gift. Love MP3 player. Needs more instructions with manual. But overall love it.

Over all good product for its price. Best If used during the day when there is plenty of light. not to be used in a poorly lit area other then that an excelent product.

I really enjoy this camera. The fact that the camera has an MP3 and all the other things make it very good.

When I first saw this, I thought it was very cool. However after purchasing it, I see that it's not. Most of our pictures turn out blurry and red and I can't find out how to work the light on the front, so everything I record inside comes out dark. I am very unsatisfied.

THE ONLY PROBLEM I AM HAVING IS TRYING TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO GET THE MOVIE DIGITAL TO WORK PROPERLY ON MY COMPUTER. NEED A HELP LINE. OTHERWISE WORKS REALLY GOOD FOR THE PRICE.....MIKW

I like the camera, takes good pictures for its worth. Only downsize to it was that the manual did give enough information. I would recommend this product. Love it

Pictures come out blurry and tinted red. The video recordings come out extremely dark, almost impossible to see what you recorded. Piece of JUNK

Pictures come out red tinted. No matter how much you adjust the settings the quality is horrible
