An attractive and capable camcorder for everyday use, we liked the turn it on and start shooting idea behind the Camileo X100, plus the ability to take still shots while continuing to shoot video. It's not the most robust camcorder we've tried however.

Lightweight, simple to use, good image quality, built-in storage

Does 1080p really make any difference? A bit plasticky

1080p and 10X zoom for $400 ; Simple interface ; 4GB of storage built-in with SDHC slot ; Slow motion and time lapse options ; Good audio quality

Mediocre image quality ; AVI container limits a cross-platform standard ; Small range of image adjustment options ; Slightly disjointed union of touch and physical controls

Design and interfaceCamcorder design has in many ways been massaged into oblivion: it's hard to design a barrel-shaped camera that breaks from the template. The X100 will feel very much familiar to anyone who's used a typical digital camcorder,

The picture looks really good when it conditions are right.

Had issues with it right out of the box. It finally got where it was not useable after 2 years of owning it but only using it half a dozen times. I contacted Toshiba but they were no help.

Cheap. Even cheaper now.

It doesn't record while being plugged in the wall charger & It doesn't charge in the USB ports I plug it into. I've tried a variety of different sources. Computer, car, powerpack, wall converter, & cigarette lighter converter.

Great picture (see cons), easy to use and set up easy file transfer to pc for editing. For the price, it works.

When using HD mode and holding the camera in your hand, the image is shaky and horrible. If mounted to tripod it improves. Also, the autofocus when zoomed in leaves something to be desired.

This is a nice camcorder. Very simple to use. No bells and whistles here. It gets the job done.

The battery will last an hour at most. You must shop for the PX1657 battery ASAP. The SDHC card (32GB Max) is also a must.

It's a very nice camera for the price -Slow Motion -Touch Screen -1080p OR 1080i -720p @ 60FPS -720p @ 30FPS -Stabilization works well, in my opinion -Screen is a good size for the camera -Buttons are placed well -Adjustable Strap for Hand -High...

-Slow Motion is a very low resolution -Files CANNOT be placed directly into After Effects. They have to be converted first. -Holding camera makes hand sweaty with strap -Lens cap just dangles, easily gets into to shot (See other thoughts for fix)...
