This camera is great, its light, easy to use, stylish, modern and packed with clever technology. You certainly get a lot for your money. At under two hundred pounds it is perfect for amateur camera people, and all those moments you just have to catch on film.
I got one of these last christmas, with five DV tapes and a case! I had a quick read of the instruction manual and I was soon going through the camera settings working out what does what. A few minutes later I was filming my mother putting the finishing touches to the Christmas Dinner. I filmed other bits and bobs of Christmas Day and by the end of the day, I had used up one of my five tapes. On boxing day I filmed some more, and I kept filming through out the period of time between Christmas and new year.
On new years eve, I got the camera rolling again, and I was filming all the festivities, and using the many different functions that were available on the camera, I also took advantage of the excellent optical zoom I had and just incase I needed it, there was the digital zoom too.
On new years day I did a bit more filming, and began to use the computer software I got with the camera. I got some of my grandma a bit drunk while I was filming so I thought I would make a minature movie of it on my computer using all the features on the programmes. If you get the software with the camera aswell you will be very happy at how easy and simple it is to use it, and to create all those different home movies.
To get the complete experience of getting the most out of this camera and its various other packages, you really need the tripod with it. It takes second to set it up, and seconds to check it level, with two leveling bubbles and self-adjusting non slip feet.
All in all this camera with its other packages is the perfect gift for anyone or for yourself, its very easy to use and very easy to make some great home movies and get some great pictures.
