    Strengths:    Small, light, easy to carry around. Menu is packed with features and easy to navigate. It has an automatic record mode for those of us who just want point and record simplness, but it also has manuel mode which gives you access to many features, and yet very easy to use.

    Weaknesses:    The still picture's aren't that great, for what you'ld get out of a $700 still digital, but you can't complain because your bying a camcorder. There really is major faults for this camera

    Bottom Line:   
    I bought this camera about 2 months ago, mostley because the price was great and i wanted a digital camcorder for filming the local skateboarders. I really wasn't expecting much from this camera, but its turned at to be great. I use it all the time and haven't found anything that makes me regret my purchase.
