Sharp Viewcam VL-AH50U

 

Window is 3 inches and Sharp cameras seem to be the only ones with the window built into the camera instead of folding out. I enjoy it and find it really easy to use and easy to see, the view screen doesn't reflect like others I have seen. The sound is...

Very easy to work with the window

ALL GOOD

Sharp's design & quality is very poor..

 

I used to use a Sharp camera maybe 4 years ago, its design and outlook was nearly same, when i first saw that photo of VL-AH50U i remembered that machined i used. It was not that handy and using that camera was not that easy. And product quality was so...

You can operate lens and screen seperately

Difficult to operate, not handy

My Sharp Camcorder

 

I have owned my Sharp Camcorder for about a year now. All in all, this is a easy to understand and opporate camcorder. With simple easy to follow buttons and guides you'll find yourself recording everything. One thing that I really like about the...

Good Camera/Complicated Menu

 

This camera all in all is pretty good. It has fade in fade out, picture in picture (unfortunately, you need to be in the perfect position to aim the square exactly where you want that extra zoom in, hope this makes sense) The LCD screen is kind of...

small, lcd display to avoid squinting

menu is complicated

A great buy!

 

We bought this camcorder before the birth of our son (10 months ago) and we have never stopped using it. Of course we use it mainly to record his moments but it is so easy to use! All displays are clearly marked, controls are big enough and easy to...
