Price Paid:
$1299.00
from 1-877-camera Summary: I bought this camcorder because I always wanted a 3 chip camcorder and this one broke that price barrier by several hundred dollars. When I got it Ifound it had still features that still digital cameras could only dream of. The first is optical stablization which makes possible holding the camera still at far zoom settings, and it has a 10 to 1 zoom much more than most still cameras. The most surprising feature however was the instant still shot capability, when you snap the picture you get the shot not a half a second later. Ofcourse the colors are brilliant with 3 CCD's. Strengths: optical sablization,instant stills pictures,having great still and video capability in one small package. Weaknesses: I am not sure it has the same resolution as a 3.2 mega pixel still camera, but it better than a 2 mega pixel still camera. The low light capability is supposed to be poor but inside pictures look fine without additional lighting. Similar Products Used: Toshiba 2 mega pixel, Minolta 304, Panasonic super VHS camcorder. Customer Service: The camera just came in a week ago.
