Ok, lets start with the only good thing about this god awful product. Its small. There we go. I purchased this camcorder last week and was excited to see it arrive on my doorstep today. Before i go on, i would just like all you people out there to remember one thing. "you only get what you pay for" and thats certainly true with this piece of rubbish ! i paid a grand total of £119.

Ok, lets start with the only good thing about this god awful product. Its small. There we go. I purchased this camcorder last week and was excited to see it arrive on my doorstep today. Before i go on, i would just like all you people out there to remember one thing. "you only get what you pay for" and thats certainly true with this piece of rubbish ! i paid a grand total of £119. First of all, on the side of the box, it clearly stated that the camera supported mac os9, osx 10.2 and upwards, then, i took out the usb cable and connected it to my mac and guess what? NOTHING. no sign of a connection, not a sausage, instead a little box appeared on my desktop telling me that the device was not compatible. Then, i couldnt turn it off, and infact had to remove the battery for the thing to shut down. so now im left with a camcorder that has a battery life of about 30 minutes and looks like something you would go and buy from the early learning centre. In my opinion, one of the worst if not the worst things ive ever wasted my money on. Jut remember what i said earlier, pay a bit more and get something you know will work.
Advantages: Small easy to use Disadvantages: recargeble battery
