Poor quality after light use in less than 12 monthsby stevedevries - February 19, 2007

Pros: Pretty easy to use.

Cons: Color picture turns to black & white.

Review: After less than 12 months and light use, perhaps once per week or less, the picture randomly changes from color to black & white, and back again.
