    "Poor! Solid State recording and still a noisy buzz?"

    by Shephild63 on March 15, 2008

    Pros: Small and very portable. High Def

    Cons: Atrocious sound quality. Night Shot mode for photos has no effect ? I see no difference from regular mode. Video must be shot in bright sunlight to look decent.

    Summary: This camera is terrible. It is so bad that I think the one I received may be defective. I hope that's the case for Aiptek's sake.

    I ordered mine from JCPenny. First negative indicator was that the clam shell packaging had already been opened and taped closed. Obviously it had been returned by a previous sucker. After reading some reviews that said this camera was great in low light, I decided to purchase. Even in a lamp lit room at night the videos are extremely dark and details are hard to make out. The LED lights work but the subject must be within three feet to be illuminated.

    This camera should have no moving parts other than the zoom lens. Why then is there a constant buzzing sound similar to the motor noise on old cassette decks? This atrocious sound quality alone is a deal breaker.

    This Aiptek GO-HD camera is going back today.

    If you thought that you had recieved a "used"item why in the world did you not IMMEDIATELY return it? THAT makes NO sense!
