All these features surely makes this camera a must buy for the price but the looks of this camera sums everthing up and makes you fall in love with it. I own the red version and it looks stunning.

It is so bad that even if you do not zoom in, the image is still very pixalated and blury. But still, i wouldnt argue for the price becasue to me this is the best low value camcorder available at the moment and im not counting pocket camcorders. Do not hesitate to buy this if you need a basic camcorder. It truley is Brilliant.
