horrible camcorder and worse customer serviceby scott thomas - October 25, 2007

Pros: night recording, video light, SD card slot

Cons: it won't work

Review: My wife and I purchased this camcorder just right before we had our first child. He was born in October and by November the viewfinder went black and since it was still under warrenty I had to send it to New Jersey...it took over a month to get back. So by Christmas we had our camcorder back. It worked for about another 6 months and the very same thing has happened again. Now it just sits in our closet, and we have missed 2 birthdays, 2 Christmas', and so many other special events in our son's life. I will NEVER own another Samsung product.

Great quality, features for price; fair stillsby teetoncey - September 9, 2005

Pros: Incredible zoom, great macro, ease of use

Cons: Still pics only 0.3MP

Review: 900x zoom; 1:1 macro; easy flashcard use; logical and easy controls. Manual could be better, but phone support compensates. Non-flashcard program a bit difficult to get used to, but OK then. Still pics OK for ebay use, but barely so for printing.

3 1/2" Screen is Greatby - July 31, 2004

Pros: 3 1/2" screen is what sold me. All other similar cameras had very small screens and was hard to see. Also easy to use.
