 Great video camera... for about 15 minutes December 16, 2007
7 out of 17 found this review helpful
I received one of these cameras as a holiday gift. It is easy to use, fun, and super-portable. I also think the video quality is excellent for such a small camera and it even works well in low-lighting situations. But what most reviewers don't mention is that the battery life is incredibly short! You will be luck to use up all of the camera's memory before the batteries die. This is a very cool camera, but the battery life is pretty disappointing.

Out of 200 reviews here, at least 147 (at the time of this review) were either 4 stars or above for this nifty product. I read through the lower rated ones and here's my take, from a user's perspective:
1. You have to have realistic expectations. This costs about $150.00 (or less, if you can find a deal). For that price, it does everything I'd expect. It isn't professional quality but it is decent video.
2. This is very, very user friendly. I haven't found or used a simpler device. You can upload videos with this, play them on your tv and have fun. If you need to delete your film, it is one touch, easy to understand.
As far as I was concerned, this was simply click and play, right out of the box. It isn't complicated. Having noted that, we use this as a portable supplement to our professional camcorder. It is easy to just grab this and go and it doesn't get in the way, isn't bulky, etc. For the price, I think it is a winner!
EASIER THAN I THOUGHT December 16, 2007

Bought this for myself. I consider it a nice impulse buy, and was ready to return it if it did not meet my expectations. I own both a Mac and a PC. Uploads to both quite easily. Within minutes I was able to download videos and send off in email. I don't consider myself a computer expert, but the whole process was so easy I was pleasantly surprised at how quickly I managed to download the videos onto my computer. I tried to view the movies on my Sony Bravia 46 inch LCD TV. The shots that were taken at night, were OK, meaning I can see some pixelation of the screen, but the ones that were taken in daylight were surprisingly of nice resolution. Audio was fine. Very pleased. I expected poor quality once the videos were played back on the big screen but it turned out to be quite good.

Very easy to use. Compact. Gives a very nice quality video. Uploaded easily but then requested I do the prompted upgrade which then turned all those lovely videos into sound only. I had to upload them again and ignore the upgrade prompts. I guess I am doing something wrong but the instructions are not very good on this point. Also the instructions to grab a still shot do not seem to work. I will have a computer wizard on hand for the holiday and hopefully this will clear it up. I think its just me.

This is a neat little gadget which would be perfect if it used SD cards. It's easy to video tape an hour's worth of footage and then disappointing to have to quickly download it on a computer. Once you get used to it, just about anyone could snap a photo or make a quick video of those funny or cute moments to send to friends in emails. I'm sure once the novelty wears off the price will come down and a younger audience will be targeted.
