Wanted to purchase a new, small HD video/photo camera for our main video and back up photo camera. Checked many reviews at Amazon, very helpfull. from Amazon.com I read a ton of reviews and watched a bunch of [...] videos before purchasing. In the past I have used $[...]+ Sony DVD cams as well as a real HD $[...]+ Sony Camera (the thing is was a tank.) from Amazon.com The camera works very well. When plugged into my HD TV the quality of the video is awesome. However, some of that color gets lost for me in my mac, and when I post movies online. from Amazon.com I bought this for $350 on Amazon. For a real HD camera, that is a good deal. Big optics provides great photos, with zoom from wide to x10. from Amazon.com I wasn't really in the market for a full-blown HD camcorder, but had my eye on one of the new HD pocket camcorders (like the Mino Ultra HD or the Creative Vado). When I saw this camera on Amazon for about $350, I started doing some research. from Amazon.com I really hate to say this but even after all of the amazing features this camcorder has, the image stabalization makes it totally useless, you can use a tripod but that really defeats the purpose of a small camera. It takes fair stills but if you cannot get good video you might as well get a dedicated point and shoot digital, I bought 2 of these one for a gift and the other for me and the other was the vpc fh1 just the same camera upgraded and it was the same totally useless image stabalization. this camera just serves no purpose until they address that one issue' unfortunately it is an issue that makes it pretty much useless. from Amazon.com One thing I was looking for and I could not find is the capability to record from other sources such as if you wanted to transfer a tape to the camera by connecting it to a VCR or other source. Sorry but that capability is not there. I bought a 16GB card for $40 and I could record in HD for 2 hours and 20 minutes. from Amazon.com I purchased the Sanyo HD1010 from Amazon last month and have used it frequently in that time to justify a review. I love this camera and highly recommend it to anyone that wants a quality HD camcorder and a quality 4 MP still camera (up to 8 MP actually) all-in-one. from Amazon.com it feels insane. eventually it will work and everything will be fine, but in the mean time, it's annoying. didn't sanyo think that the apple computers needed support? the camera itself is great, easy to use and understand. from Amazon.com From VHS to HI-8 to miniDV. One of the best features of this camera is that it is tape-less. Beyond that it record superb HD quality and fits in my hoody pocket. The pictures it takes are good too. from Amazon.com
