[SciFlicksReviews]

[cityskater43]

[iiheartwebkinz]

can you focus it?

[nxtiak]

It's auto focus

[XTheDesertSongX]

i can see why its 100 dollars :P

[6a7bcpm]

i have this camera.. its okay i would reccomend it to people with kids who want to record videos because it is very simple to use.. the thing i hate the most about it is that u can only charge it with the charger it came with.. i lost the charger and i had to order a new one for $7... $7 is okay but it would have been a lot easier if i could charge it on my laptop or desktop

[ncybdes]

thanks for this vid!!!

i'm definitely not getting

this camera hehe

[SSGdylan]

LMFAO!!!

[jeremymach2015]

is this camera good for using when snowboarding or dirtbikes or even skate videos

[derrick967]

nope

[EricPulgarin]

yes.

[NJtriple6]

so would you recommend this for a biker? cuz i'm planning to record a lot while i'm on my motorcycle, vlogging, and maybe even for insurance purposes in case i get into an accident.

so if i were to be traveling at high rates of speed would the camcorder be able to pick it up properly or would it be blurry?

[lonewuf]

When i try to upload Video's....It just plays the Audio, WTF?

[FlatOut2power]

Could someone tell me is Insignia less choppy then Kodak ZI6?

[RachelXdanger]

i think they both are o_0

[ECFilms123456789]

whats up with the jumpy zoom?

[nxtiak]

I mentioned it in the video, no idea why it does it, probably because it's a cheap camera

[John3X1]

I actually managed to fix that, render it in iMovie HD and apply smoothness to 100% and the zoom doesn't look jumpy and instead looks optical.

[KungFuMastur]

how did you import the vid you took on the insignia?

cuz i cant....

[RetardsOfSteel]

im getting this camera tommaorow i asked the guy about this he said its because since the zoom is in the back it gives a jult buy like a cheap 6 inch buypod for like a hand grip and it should redose the shake in the zoom

[freakinn4jessicaa]

how do you pause a video ?

[Fattyfatfatty6]

Hey did you upload this straight from the camera. Cause i'm uploading through Sony Vegas and i'm not able to get the HD option available.

[dagamelord]

you got to render your video in hd

[Japanesemusicforall]

Yeah. Go to render. Then customize template at the bottom.

[christheduck]

I'm attempting to get video into Sony Vegas on my computer and it's only pulling audio, even though it's a video file. Any ideas?

[CALICOTV301]

You have to download the codec.

[nextgeneric]

I have this same issue, Chris. No idea. It's something codec related as far as I know but I can't seem to find a concrete solution.

[lilaznballaz1022]

if you want something fast... the quality is mos def not bad

[ferlo54]

I like this Insignia HD's image more than the Aiptek 720p HD.

[coffeeandsugar20]

Does it have auto focus?

[nxtiak]

Yes

[greenday4u]

so if i download the converter i can put these on windows movie maker... and if so... is the video going to lag

[stuntbiitch]

it works for me

[iusedtoslaymonsters]

guess its worth $99/ wow

[SpartanW98]

can it see in the dark plzzz reply

[nxtiak]

It has a little LED light on it, It's not great in dark areas.

[awesomemicawesome]

would you say worth it?

[crazyNirvana]

pretty worth it, i have it, takes good hd vid and sd vid if it is in sunlight, but in dark its not so good, it gets kind of grainy but yeah for 100 bucks it good

[Nowheremovies]

Nice backyard bro but dude I got the same mother ucking problem... Those effing reject AVI files aren't compatitable with wmv if you want to edit and stuff sometimes only the audio comes out as for vista. They all say we have to install stupid codec shits but even with those codec it doesn't work. I tried a free converter trial and the sound didn't work and evrything plz help me and why the buck did they put their videos in stupid avi I KING HATE AVI ! SHIT AVI SHIT AVI SHIT!

[kneeare]

try a different program... you can't actually expect Movie Maker (an MS program) to support any non-MS codec...

[IHRHHF]

my camcorder is fine recording and fine audio but i cantseem to upload it into movie maker.... it just comes out as an audio file. please reply fast!!!

[BubblyyBubbles]

ok same thing happen to me for my mac all you have to do is get a plugin or get a video player that plays .avi

[nathancomedy]

google search "Any Video Converter" and download that. take all the videos u want and drag them into it. and set the output to "wmv"

[UberToober]

Can any you guys answer why my video lags when I watch it on my computer? (Windows media player, Quicktime, etc)

My audio plays fine during the movie, but the video plays as if you are playing it at a 10% rate.

Any suggestions?

[UberToober]

IF it wasn't clear, I have this camcorder, recorded a video, put the video on my computer, then the problem occurs

[Cicada1337]

lol@ everyone that has unrealistic expectations...i just got one, along with a good SDHC card [sandisk ultra II] for about $125. which is $100 less than the mino hd, vado hd and zi6.

for $125, it's worth it. Im only using it for random crap anyway. I have an XL1 for SD stuff and am considering another prosumer type camcorder for the pro stuff.

having one fo these is the same reason why you have both a P&S and a DSLR still cam. different results for different situations.

[cckidd2]

how do u upload them to youtube? i tried it and it didnt have ''watch in HD '' and the quality was horrific

[NOTWSProductions]

you have to format it in hd, and you cant use windows movie maker, you have to use vegas or premiere

[nitram791]

NICE CRIB DUDE

[LuciferonYT]

The quality and colours are good enough for the price.

[greencardigan5]

How is the audio? Is it a good camcorder for taking video at concerts?

[Targetf]

wow thanks for posting this :P looks pretty and nice and for 99$ wow....

[FranceFrys]

Mine broke :P

[octacon1223]

dose it charge by the usb??

[nxtiak]

Yes it charges by USB

[speeddemon0712]

i just bought one yesterday and i freakin love it!! what else do you want for $99? now you can watch this vid in HD and it has great picture quality. what u need to do is set the resolution to D1 which is right under HD and it will give you the "high quality" option for youtube instead of regular or HD. check out my TEST VIDEO and itll show the D1 resolution instead of HD... its good

[AppVersity]

where is this test video?

[speeddemon0712]

i deleted it... if you check out my featured vid, my 0-60mph vid, or the newest walk around of my truck, all of those are in the D1 resolution (720x480)... great picture quality

[lormunboy]

How much recording time do you get with an 8gb SD? How big was the .avi file while recording this 1:43 vid review?

[csarivra]

more than 10 hours...

[kristinelovesjb]

Do you know what cable you use for the camera to the computer? I tried using the "HDMI" one and my computer doesn't have that plug, it's too big. Then I searched it up, now it's talking about all this "DVI" plugs and stuff and now I'm just confused ):

[nxtiak]

That HDMI plug is a video plug for a TV.

There is another plug that the camcorder comes with, the USB plug. Use that to connect to the computer. Or if your computer has an SD card reader, take the card out and use that.

[kristinelovesjb]

Oh um, I could only find that plug and another plug with one end with yellow and another white. What's the USB one look like?

[patrickmanning94]

OMG!u dont know what USB looks like

[ThaOriginalGangsta77]

how much time do u get on the memory card? and can u edit/add music/ does it come with a program?

[discodudedan]

Can anyone help me get the video's off my cam corder and on to my computer?

[nxtiak]

Get an SD card memory card reader for your computer. Take the card out from the Camcorder, put it in and browse the folders. Your video files are the .avi files

[caspian200]

Plug the usb cable into your computer go to my computer and click removable drive

[THExCALLxProductions]

thiss looked really nice especially on long shots like when you looked at the palm tree and the pool

[norakne]

I've recorded the same video on HD and SD and i see NO difference when i playback on the camera or on the computer... i tried with VLC on MAC and windows media player on the PC and I see no HD... what am i doing wrong? i made sure the "HD" symbol was on when i recorded. please help

[nxtiak]

If you've recorded in HD, the resulting avi file should be 1280x720 in resolution, it should be way bigger than regular mode.

[liftercatcher]

I have the same issue when I play the vid back on my PC it does not look good at all and the sound is OFF kinda laggy however when I upload the video to you tube it seems to fix the problem. May be widows media player is not seeing the file as HD?

[caspian200]

Ding Ding Ding! We have a winner! media player always seems to make quality worse. try playing it in quick time or some other program.

[bermuge]

have you tried this in low light? I've heard its pretty bad. Many of the reviews bought it after being convinced of its quality in the store. The problem being its extremely bright in the store, and when it was tried in low light conditions, the consumer described the picture as blocky and grainy, soon returning it because he thought it was defective

[nxtiak]

yes this camera is very bad in low light, it does have a little white LED, but doesn't help. It's not really made for low light. It's a budget easy to use camera that records in 720p.

[15septembergirl]

I noticed that too. It is very clear though when you're outside. I have a video of my brother inside of the house and its not clear, although I still really like the camera

[DefMexican73]

I had that camcorder and it was bad! i took it back! sucks insignia big time

[DKingTaco2188]

how many megapixels are the still photos?

[nxtiak]

This takes 5 megapixel still photos

[dbriderXXX]

it looks great, but would you recommend this and how do the still photos look?

[SublimeFan600]

it sucks

[m6140341]

Its at bestbuy as of today for 89.99 and thanks for pointing out to click on "watch in HD" never knew it was there the quality is good so much better than the flip

[SaoMir1]

i prefer sony handycam. it is one of the best

[DKingTaco2188]

yeah, and it's 900 bucks, vs 120

[JaYsK8sforlife]

i just got that

[Lando1395]

I would pick the Kodak Z16 beacause its more of a well known brand. If that helps

[thenormalguy93]

ya but you got to think, Kodak doesnt really make good camcorders or cameras b/c of there resolution. plus Insignia is a well know name brand 2.

[Lando1395]

I Guess It Depends On Your Personal Toughts..

[SaoMir1]

kodak is well known because of its price. its cheaper than most others. As of now, Sony and Samsung is the best in electronics. I sugest the Sony Handycam. It's price tag is a bit scary to look at. the least expensive one is 799 but i can tell you its worth your money. the HDR-CX12 is the first camcorder with face detection. it focuses on up to 8 faces at once and you can record up to 22 hours at once. it is a great camera, 1080p full HD. i truly recommmed it. hope that helps

[Lando1395]

Thanx for the advice, I actually just got the insignia HD camcorder....it will be the first camcorder for me so, it doesn't really matter

[noodlehead0]

not a good standard to go on, i bought an hp laptop in 07 bc it was a "well-known brand" and guess wat? it sucked! had to send it back 5 times to get the pos keeps breaking apart (twice graphics card dies, n once internal wireless burned out). i learned my lesson!

[Lando1395]

Thanx Nxtiak

[BecauseWeCanFilms]

Hi, can you help me make my final decision? It's a toss up between the following two HD mini camcorders.

Kodak ZI6 HD Video Camera - $179.99

Insignia Slim HD Camcorder - $129.99

Please look up reviews, etc, and help me make my decision. I trust your opinion!

[Lando1395]

Is this the one that is the slim Hd ? Cause that one is $150, On the BestBuy website

[nxtiak]

It's the NS-DCC5HB09. It shows up when you search for that. Looks like Best Buy upped the price to $149. It was $99 during the week of Black Friday and previous weeks.

[RB3N01T]

Next week's ad, starting on the 14th has it back on sale for only $99 dollars again.

They didn't up the price, that's what it first released at.

[hobo2999]

I must say... the sound sound quality is top notch.

Btw, is this the highest picture quality of this camera? Because, I've seen some digital cameras do better than that...

Thanks for the video! I was looking for a good sound quality camcorder~

[nxtiak]

Did you click the WATCH IN HD underneath the video player? That's full quality of what it takes pretty much.

[hobo2999]

Yeah, I did. Well thanks for the quick reply :P

[videocam555]

Nice vid :-) It's amazing how the more we get through the years, the more we find to pick apart. Once you get a camera with better stabilization/clarity, suddenly the lesser camera is thought of as garbage by some. In a sense, the clarity is amazing. It's just that when you move, zoom or have less light it's not super. The only reason I'd consider something better is because I'm willing to spend more, but if I couldn't this camera isn't "horrible". For the price it's surprising.

[videocam555]

I know you weren't picking it apart, but I meant some do when they get obsessed, lol. I looked at a $550 sanyo and there were people even picking that apart. The fact is what this cam is doing today is surprising. If you looked around 3 years ago, something like this for $99 would be unheard of. Especially offering higher def than old style cams.

[julioss69]

does it have night vision for shooting in dark places,also can you shoot in normal definition or has to be high definition all the time

[nxtiak]

No night vision shoooting, but it has a little white LED light on it. Also there are several video quality settings so you don't have to shoot in "HD" all the time.

[BecauseWeCanFilms]

Thanks for this video. I'm still deciding between this and the Kodak Zi6.

[xTheRevA7X]

lol i was gunna buy this for a concert forget it now

[nxtiak]

Ya, it'ss going to be too dark for a concert to get good video. The image stabilizing is pretty good though.

[BDUBTheAnimeMaster]

is this good for small home movies

[nxtiak]

Yeah it's ok, it looks good if you're recording in plenty of light.
