    "decent camera for amateurs." on by Qrom

    Pros: impressive array of features and options for its small size. light and easy to handle.

    Cons: color is a bit washed out in video mode. programing interface is clunky. manual/instructions get a 5 out of 10 score. had to buy firewire cable for mac, to download movies.

    Summary: overall very good for its class. it's packed with features and expandable options. if you want to get started in film making or take it with you on vacations, the camera's good for that.

    my main complaint is its limited color depth. colors look a little washed out and milky. you can adjust this somewhat with most movie software after you download your footage, but for my next camera i will make sure i get better, brighter color.

    if you have a mac, you will need a firewire cable from any electronics store to plug into the camera's i-link for downloading movies. take the camera with you to the store and make sure you get the right cable.
