A Good First DV Camera
|
I have owned this camera for two years now and it has work flawlessly. It is my first video camera of any kind and it is better and easier to use than I expected. The picture quality is great and the size makes it easy to take anywhere. I did not expect it to be the best camera on the market but I am satisfied with what I got for the price and when I'm ready, I'll upgrade to a more expensive, better camera (after two years I'm still happy with this one).
As for some of the bad points brought up in other reviews:
>"The software that comes with it is junk" - this is true, use the software that came on your computer or spend a little money and buy video editing software. You'll be happy you did, even the cheap ones work fairly well and the more expensive ones just get better.
>"There is no microphone/headphone jack" - No, there isn't, but many comparable cameras have the same problem, this is usually something you find on a camera that's a bit more expensive.
>"Customer Service is Poor" - I don't know as I have had no reason to deal with them.
