"Great Camera, Questionable Quality" | 2008-07-21 |

| We purchased this camcorder for our wedding and honeymoon. The camera is great: small size, easy to use, good quality. However, toward the end of the honeymoon, the camera stopped working. We contacted the seller, and they were very nice and asked us to return it for an exchange. We have not received our new camera yet, (I can update this review once we do) but we're looking forward to having it back. The cons of buying this camera were obviously that we did not have it for part of our honeymoon, so we have no footage of my husband parasailing or us swimming with dolphins -- which was the reason for purchasing the camera -- and we had to pay shipping to return the camera only two weeks after purchase. |

| This is damn good camera, and for the price it really is a deal. I've shot my first short film with this camera, and am going to buy two more for my first feature film next year. I love it! |

This is an excellent little camera for the price. It was everything I expected. There is a little bit of motor noise when the zoom is used but nothing major unless you are looking for something super professional. I like the size - fits in a pocket or purse for travel. I would recommend it. It also takes still photos on a card - nice extra. |

"zr850 slow snap then miss" | 2008-06-10 |
| - Reviewed By User: A2YA87XX3C428Q |
seems good for a camcorder. Although the still camera has a higher Resolution CCD (1 Meg), The snap button does not have the 2 step feature as seen in the better Optura line (model 50/60). So when you snap the picture, it does not snap right away since it has focus first. There is no way to prefocus and then snap the picture. Therefore you will miss the moment. The viewfinder is not adjustable. Canon decided to stop manufacturing the better miniDV line models.

Looking for the best of a digital camera and a camcorder in one at a great price? This camera offers the best of both worlds! Great for the novice or experienced user, this camera has fantastic features that are user-friendly. To the novice, please take a few minutes to review the user's manual and familiarize yourself with all the buttons and then have some fun.
This camera comes with the USB cable for your computer and cables to hook up to your TV, a rechargeable battery pack with power supply cord, uses a standard memory card, and/or miniDV cassettes. I recommend buying an extra battery pack, tapes and a camera case (all available at [...] for less than most major discount stores) to complete your package.
The battery pack doesn't last as long as I'd like, but having the extra battery pack helps if you don't have a place to plug in the charger. I absolutely love the quality and features of this camera and recommend it to anyone who is looking for quality, good price, and easy-to-use features. |

"I would not recommend this to anyone" | 2008-05-18 |

| I had this Camcorder for about 5 days before I returned it. After recording one tape I decided to watch the footage to see what kind of quality it had. The video quality was outstanding but the audio was not. The motor in the camcorder puts off a quite hum which you don't pay any mind because it's very faint. However, the internal microphone picks up this hum and records it. I love everything else about the camcorder. But in my opinion the motor noise is just not expectable for something of this price range. |
