so cool camcorder a must read (Rating: ) Review : Great deal! (Rating: 5.00) Review : Just bought this camcorder after A LOT of research...and couldn't be happier. It is very simple to use, and the manual is an easy read. The still pics are a little grainy...but we don't plan to use it for that purpose. The microphone picks up wonderful sound and the movie images are crisp and clean. Be careful, there is no memory stick included for still pictures, so you need to buy it. We have had no problems with the battery, although we will buy another one to have on hand for vacations, etc. If you're looking for a great camera, at a great price, this has it all! Great camera, great features for the price (Rating: 5.00) Review : Not only did this camera exceed my expectations, but after shopping around, got it for a great price. The zoom and DIS are excellent, and the power nite pix is really cool. Pictures onto the memory stick aren't anything special, but I wasn't buying a camcorder to take pictures anyway. The size is very manageable, and hooking it up via the USB was a snap. The menus become easy to use after you get use to them, and some of the 'quick' buttons let you access functions even faster. The cassette insertion is actually pretty neat, and assuming you're not retarded, you shouldn't have a problem. I would never buy a Samsung again!!! (Rating: 1.00) Review : My husband and I purchased this Camcorder and recorded our sons birth, which worked fine for the taping, but when we played it back the camera would not rewind and when we played it on the TV there was nothing but lines through the picture. We sent the tape to Samsung who said the tape could not be recovered and the camera was "off line" and could not be fixed. The tape of our sons birth is now bascially worthless. So we returned the camcorder and purchased another one just like it. It worked for 2 months and now when you play back the tape, the picture is all encrypted and the sound is nothing but static! Samsung camcorders are junk!!! Awful video quality (Rating: 2.00) Review : The video quality is terrible~ in natural daylight indoors the images are grainy, dark, and the colors are inaccurate. I was filming my kids and my daughter's bright pink ball came out orange in the film. The images were not clear at all and everything appeared darker than to the eye. I have gotten MUCH better results from my old RCA vhs recorder than this digital one. In outdoors, at 1pm, I got similar disappointing results~ the colors of the trees were not captured and again, the images were darker than in real life. Very disappointing. I'm giving this camcorder 2 stars (rather than none) because it does have very good sound quality and it was easy to use. However, because I want decent recordings of my children, this is going back to the store today. The video produced by this camera was simply unacceptable to me and I returned it. The images were grainy and highly pixelated. I thought this problem might be improved with use of an S-video hookup but it was the same (or worse). I also thought it might have been a "low-light" problem but the same thing was true (although less dramatic) shooting in well-lit rooms and even outside in the sunshine. The problem was probably exacerbated by the fact that I have a fairly large projection TV but when I hooked it up to a smaller tube set, the image was still very grainy. Too bad. I like the feel of the unit and the feature set was good. COuldn't keep it though because the picture would drive me crazy. |
