I bought this cam last year. This is an average Camcorder which an entry level person can purchase. if you are a professional buy a Sony Handy cam. That is the worlds best one.
if we record, distant images are blurred and not clear. camera operation is also not easy. but the still picture quality is good. we can enable flash light by moving the joystick right. I found that only after a year. so you can imagine the difficulty of using it.
the manual that I got with this cam is "Zero". there is no documentaion how to use the camera settings. I got the Pdf manual online by searching in google.com. that manual explain me everything about the cam
the settings menus are not proper. only an icon is displayed for each setting. we dont know what function that icon represent.
battery life is worst. with full recharge cam will not run for more than an hour.
while using the delete button you should be carefull. if you press delete twice all files will get deleted. it happens to me twice. I used file recovery tools and got the files back.
the mp3 function in the cam is not up to the mark. the sound qualtity is very poor. I have an ipod and an ordinary mp3 player and a sony earphone original. even with the sony earphone the sound quality of the mp3 file played by the cam is poor.
few positive and negative things about this cam are
1: this cam is just 3.2 megapixel. cannot be used by professional.
2: no memory card provided. internal memory very low. just 28 MB
3: Tv Cable provided is good and useful to watch videos live on TV
4: Mp3 function is not good and audio quality poor
5: Delete function is not easy and if pressed twice will delete all files
6: Battery is not good
7: recording distant object, zooming will reduce picture quality and image will be blurred.
8: still photo is excellent with flash.
9: The camera is compact and light weight
overall it is difficult to use this cam for a common man. no manuals or documets provided.
