"Piece of junk! Dont buy! dont buy!"
Pros: None. Maybe the chaptering.
Cons: Errors on everything.
Summary: Do not buy unless you want to waste time recording and then losing everything you record.
I have lost my daughters birthday party, a trip to a fair and some other priceless moments, because of disc errors. Halfway through recording I get messages saying the disc is corrupt and needs to format. Meaning 'erase everything that I have filmed up to that point". This has happened multiple times. In fact i have yet to make it through the finalizing process on a single CD. The last straw was a trip to thailand. I carried the camera with me every where and filmed everything. I finally got through the 1 entire CD of filming without getting an error, only to get home and lose everything. i tried to finalize the CD. It got to a minute left of finalizing and came up with another error message but of course it wanted to format to solve the problem. The whole solution to any problem on this camera is to format. Again, this erases everything. I have wasted 30-40 hours of taping without a single bit of footage. I am back to mini dv. dont buy!
