"Great camera for the average user."
Pros: Easy to use. Compact. Above average video quality. Hard drive storage.
Cons: Low light. Digital zoom.
Summary: Now that I have had this camera for one weekend with the family I can say I am very happy with the purchase so far. So happy that I felt compelled to give back to the site that I used so much to do my research.
This camera is so easy to use it took me 5 minutes to get the hang of it and I still have not looked at the instructions yet(what guy ever would). The video quality is better than I expected. The one button to back up to your PC is brilliant. The included software is great too.
Everyone is right though the low light feature is useless. It does produce a nice image out of almost no light but you can not move the camera at all or you just get a blur. Its like having the shutter wide open on a still camera. The digital zoom could only be used with a tripod I imagine. I tried it hand held and it was impossible to keep still enough.
Overall this is well worth the price. The pros far outway the cons on this one.
