Great Camcorder for first time user. Unfortunately the screen kept locking up and after a few months we returned it for refund.

Amazing but breaks too easily...:(

 

I have owned two, about to buy another one. Both broke to quickly after buying them...but the thing is, they're SO great, I'm willing to buy it again! Maybe I was a little clumsy with it..

Easy To Use ; Good Image Quality ; Good Image Stabilization ; Good in Low Light ; Great Zoom ; Large Clear LCD ; Short Lag Time ; Small / Compact

Both broke within a month

Small size, rechargeable

Neither camera or camcorder feature is very good
