I purchased the Canon DC 40 because it seemed like a very high quality camcorder, which was easy to use and allowed me to captire all those wonderful moments on film. I wasn't far wrong because i have found the Canon DC 40 to be a worthwhile purchase. At first it took me a while to read through the manual and to fully understand how to operate the camcorder, however reading the manual is appropriate because it does help you to fully operate the Canon DC 40 and get the full potential out of it. Graphically it is a good solid camcorder and it has a good zoom which holds the image in good quality. It also takes photos of a good standard and has a good memory in which to store these photos. Its playback capabilities are very good and easy to access. If i were to knock it in any way it would be that its battery runs down very quickly, therefore charging regularly is needed. So always remember to carry that charger with you on holidays! Overall in my opinion this doesn't affect the Canon DC40 and it is a good purchase to make, and most importantly its worth the money!!

Welcome to ciao, Sorry for the low rating, but I think that your Review needs a lot more information and detail to justify a higher rating. You need to include info on its features and of course what it costs I think that you need to write every product Review as if you’re writing for someone who has virtually no knowledge of what you’re reviewing, in clear non technical language. You might find it helpful if you read and rate some other peoples’ reviews (especially those that have been rated VH or E). It might give you an idea of the sort of things you need to include. It might also be helpful if you had a look at the Ciao guides to writing Reviews and Rating I found them really useful. If I can be of any help feel free to put a note in my gb. Rich
