this camera is well worth the money. infact bestbuy are doing them for £75 now which is great! it works well with a mac using imovie or even with the builtin software using windows. this chick has no idea what she is talking about, typical yanks get themselves on youtube and like hearing their own voices by talking loads of shit!

I think digital stabilization only works when the camera isn't jolted around haha

What camera did you film this review on?

[Aurora20Waters]

@MelodicCentral- I would love to know the answer to that one.

It's possible to convert a copy of the video into an audio file, convert the audio into a compatible one, and drag it under the video, but then again you're probably just better off with an external mic...

That was a nice accurate review that covered all the strengths and weaknesses of that particular camera. Kodak just didn't seem to finish the thing off completely.

what is the best camera of this type for recording live show at high volume levels ?

[Armornone]

There is already technology that has better video quality and smaller. Its called a Flip MinoHD

@MelodicCentral by the way the windows "live" movie maker isn't a problem for me AT ALL it's just these videos don't seem as HD as the others even though the ones i've looked at so far are results of using mac but still it should come out PRETTY SMOOTH on an HP or Toshiba..I just want to know why there's basically all the noise(fuzzyness) in the vids..
