"small yet feature rich" on by robertobiggio
Pros: good picture, compact design, sd card
Cons: battery, short battery life
Summary: just purchased canon zr 600 $284 from dell.com, only used it to take some pictures. overall satisfied with this nice looking and 1lb light weight camcorder. it is easy to use with joy stick and all buttons are very responsive. the only problem is battery life is so short that it died within 1 hour just playing and taking still pictures, i don't know yet how long it is going to last when recording. i'm going to buy at least 2 batteries on ebay. ah, more $$$ spend on this thing. and luckily i already have a 512mb sd card.

battery life is 2 hours exactly. i have a 512mb sandisk sd mini card. took 232 pictues and only used 70mb space. all info are true data from an actual user.Updated
the video and audio quality is excellent when recording. light is very good and sound is natural and volume is medium. record on sd card-used average 12mb space per minute on highest picture and sound setting. which means with 1gb sd card, can record up to 80 minutes max film. the extended battery can be bought on ebay--bp-522-4hours max life.Updated
the correct battery model number is BR-2L12 OR BP-2L14 FOR EXTENDED USE. THE ORIGINAL BATTERY COMES WITH CANON ZR600 IS BP-2L5. BATTERY CHARGER IS CB-2LT / CB-2LW. THIS INFO COMES FROM MANUAL BOOK.
