@AmnaReza071611 Hi! :) Yes, you'll be able to flip the LCD screen around so that you see yourself while recording. The screen worked well, but overtime the screen will become loose some. This is because of pulling the screen out and flipping in the direction I want it in. I found that the screen is held with one small screw to the camera, could be why it gets loose later on. I haven't used this camera in a very long time, also I don't film much. Later on, planning for a different camcorder.
Thanks for this. There were lots of shows that said that the quality was crap, but I got one of these for about 80 bucks, and it may not be the best quality, but it's not bad if you use it under decent light and stable conditions. Better to buy a low-end now and wait a few years when the 800 dollar ones are down to 50 bucks.
@rader55555 No problem. Yeah, I want to try to get something different in the future. But this was a good start, until the prices go down. There have been a few camcorders in the past I've set my eyes on. But we'll see in the future! :)
@Krazie316 Yeah, the sound of the recording of the camcorder isn't the best. It's very good for close up sound, but even then I have to boost the volume up when editing the videos sometimes. I'm going to try in the near future hopefully, to get another camcorder. But just not yet. :)
My wife and I went to Kohl's last night and got three of these for $25 each (Thanks to my wife talking to the manager). They work great and for $25, you can't bet it. they were already marked down from $149 to $44.99 as it was so go to Kohl's and see if you can find one.
I'd like to see how it does indoors with regular lighting. I tell you, a friend has the Flip Mino HD, and the video is so shakey it's almost unwatchable. It's obvious you are walking while making this video, and the picture is better than the Flip!
to know how good a camcorder quality really is try to tape the back of your pum if you can see the dots on the skin then that cam is clear nd good quality
The camcorder itself doesn't recharge batteries. I have to use the external battery charger that plugs into a wall outlet. I kind of wish the camcorder would charge the batteries itself. Makes it easier not having to take the four AAA batteries out and so on. As for a Lithium-ion rechargeable battery, I'm not sure that'll work, sorry. :(
when you bought it did it come with an underwater casing because i'm buying mine at costco for $100 and it comes with a free underwater casing and i was wondering if it's any good
When I got mine, is was bought from Kohls and came in a bundle. Mostly the bundle came with the camcorder, 2GB SD card, little soft camcorder bag, tripod, four AAA batteries, the A/V cables and a battery charger.
It's either because HD videos on YouTube need a pretty good amount of processor. If not that, my camcorder lags when zooming in and out. But I don't recall doing that in this video.
Yeah, it's a pretty neat camcorder. Still trying to get the sound to be a little higher. I know that my Wii Unboxing's audio didn't come out well. Mostly because I had the camcorder a little away from me. I actually used a program to boost it up some. Thanks for the comment. :)
Also, is this camcorder a swivel screen?
Will I be able to see myself when recording?
Thanks~

Is this ideal for making youtube tutorials?
Can you please let me know if it will auto-focus when zoomed in?
Thanks so much -- I purchased this from amazon for $50 due to the fact that I needed one ASAP and only had $50 to spend! Thanks =)

@AntiVot You're welcome. I didn't think I would get this many views on this type of video, lol. :)

for 50 bucks (on bestbuy's web site) it's not bad at all, I think the only thing I have an issue with is it's sound quality

how about if I use rechargable AAA batteries because I think I have some at home. and I also have someting that charges the batteries.
klocsin1234 2 years ago
That'll work! :)
RR99i 2 years ago
since you need AAA batteries does that mean it's not rechargable? o and can it use a Lithium-ion rechargable battery or does it need AAA?
