Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I want to preface this review with a comment.If you are expecting that this camera is going to put out High Definition quality videos and be amazing in low light situations, then you're looking at the wrong camera.In fact, MOST cameras will have difficulties in low light situations.The camera was not designed for HD, obviously, so that expectation should go out the window.
Overall, the camera is great.Purchased for $165 from Amazon's website at the end of March 2010.The camera has excellent zoom and picks up sound very well.The reason that the camera was purchased was to capture golf shots between friends.It's very lightweight and easily fits within the compartments of our golf carts/bags.It's still a bit big to fit into my pants to the point where I feel comfortable taking a golf shot.Don't get me wrong, it is still small and CAN fit into your pant pockets.I just don't like the feel of it when I take golf shots.
I had considered purchasing the Flip HD and Kodak zi8 (which I do have) and must say that though the form factors on the handheld camcorders is better from a size standpoint, you simply can't beat the benefits of this camera.
For those of you who are concerned about the battery life, let me assure you that the 4.5 hrs of battery life is definitely real.I tested it today since I was skeptical about it as well.This 'concern' came about because the battery indicator light is not designed well and appears to drain faster than it really does.At one point, there were zero bars on the indicator but the camera continued taking video for an additional 45 minutes.
