    "If you are looking for a camera and camcorder combo this is the one for its price."

    by ashkankhak on January 8, 2006

    Pros: High 2.2 Mp resolution for picture (not bad for a camcorder), amazing 1.2 Mp video quality, amazing compatibility, and Flash

    Cons: Night Mode Horribble, Kind of Low Zoom, Might become confusing

    Summary: In day its picture quality is phenomenon. Its quality is more than a DVD movie. You can manipulate how you shoot in many ways. Nice dial for navigation. The expandable memory card makes saving pitures extremely easy having a card reader on your computer you can easily plug in the card in there and save them on computer, the pinnacle software is easy to use.

    DO NOT RELY ON ITS NIGHT MODE BECAUSE ITS IS HORRIBLE, AND DO NOT GET OPTURA 60 ONLY FOR ITS EXTRA LED LIGHT AND 4X EXTRA ON ITS ZOOM (DO NOT EVEN THINK ABOUT DIGITAL ZOOM) BECAUSE IT DOES NOT WORTH THE 200 DOLLARS EXTRA. JUST GET AN ADDITIONAL PROJECTOR LIGHT FOR ONLY $100 MORE AND FOR THE VIDEO YOU CAN USE THE 40X DIGITAL ZOOM AND DO NOT PUT IT AND 200X. HOWEVER IT REDUCES THE QUALITY BUT IT WILL BECOME LIKE REGULAR CAMCORDER.

    With all this I would buy this camcorder again
