Hopefully because it's USB and less of a hassle, it'll be easier to make more videos.

Man I wish I had that camcorder. I love my Sony Webbie, but that AGC is so annoying....

[IBMThinkPadR51]

@Dell0304 What is AGC? There is one thing I hate about this one, it that the LED light, has an auto setting, and detects when it's dark, but it has a normal setting, but you have to press the Light button two times.

@IBMThinkPadR51 "Automatic gain control" ... it's a circuit used by some audio and video recording devices to automatically adjust how much the input signal is amplified. For example, if you were to point your camcorder at a brightly lit object, the gain would be automatically turned down.

[IBMThinkPadR51]

@uxwbill OK. This camcorder doesn't have that feature.

270$ is too much for a standard definition camcorder...

[IBMThinkPadR51]

@MarshallRA Not really. We got a discount because my mom works there, and employees get a staff discount. So we got it for $230

[Dell0304]

@MarshallRA It's not if it's a good one, which Sony is.

[MarshallRA]

@Dell0304 Not ALL Sony's are good. Remember, never buy because of a brand, buy because of features and quality.

You should of got a HD camera, it will be better for YouTube. lol.

[IBMThinkPadR51]

@Brentkolb1996 My computer doesn't edit HD very well, so I wend with a SD camcorder instead. Plus most people don't even watch in HD anyway.
