What's great about it:?looks sharp, webcam, good quality upclose and zoomed in, simple to use What's not so great:?cannot transfer video files to computer, makes noises you can hear in film, automatic focusing, sound randomly muffled "If you like to record family home videos and don't plan on saving them onto your computer or editing, or doing anything with them but keeping them on the dvds to watch just in ur dvd player or computer, then this camera is a great deal for you. If you actually want to do something with your film, like put it on youtube or edit or send to family in emails, don't get a DVD camcorder. from Bestbuy.com What's great about it:?Really easy to use and you can decide to record to a SD card or a mini dvd. What's not so great:?Haven't found anything yet. from Bestbuy.com We bought this camcorder before our first child was born in January. Due to the horrible faults of this product, we have lost precious video memories of our son's first six months! We have tried multiple disc formats (DVD-R, DVD+R, DVD-RW and brands (TDK, Maxell, Sony), and every time we receive a message of "Disc Error" or something similar and all of the data is lost. It cannot be replayed on the computer or DVD player. from Amazon.com I wish I read these reviews before I threw my money away on this By far the worst camera I've ever used. Ive couldnt return it, Samsung wanted $82.00 to send out for repairs even though its only 45days old! Samsung telephone operators act like they havent been flooded with calls about this LEMON, This camera WILL NOT finalize discs, cant pickup where you left off, by far the worst support. from Amazon.com 3 stars?! Thats crazy! This camera has the features you need, the quality that Samsung produces, at a price worth paying. As another reviewer has already posted, this works just fine for me! from Amazon.com I made a HUGE mistake buying this camcorder. Let me preface by saying I did not get it at Amazon, but a "box" store, and could not return it, even though it was only 32 days old. The two year warranty was only for AFTER the manufactures warranty, and Samsung only warranties for defect and repair, they will NOT replace or refund anything. That said. from Amazon.com My only issue with this is you can only use 2GB SD memory cards. Recording Video on the memory card quality sucks. DVD recording picture and sound quality is more than acceptable on the medium setting. never tried on super fine or highest quality setting. from Amazon.com I got this primarily as a throw-away car cam, throw away in the sense that if (or when) it dies I'm not going to be bothered by its demise. The main selling point on this camera to me was that it records video to SD and that it was only $149 at a local price club new. from Amazon.com Last year we finally invested in our first DVD camcorder after years of using VHS and the HI-8 camcorders. Overall, I was pleased with this item. from Amazon.com The disk that means the world to me is about to be trashed unless I can figure out a way to transfer or finalize this disk that I previously recorded. If you have suggestions please let me know. My camcorder only works with Panasonic DVD-R 1.4 GB one sided disk and it will finalize the disk to be viewed on another unit. This would not have happen if it would have came with the first disk as stated. from Amazon.com
