Helpful consumer’s review
I’ve seen this coming. The technology has been advancing so quickly that it was only the waiting that’s been tough. I bought this camera right away and am VERY pleased with it. I just don’t know where to start.
This is both an excellent stand alone still camera with 10.1 MP, which provides enough details for 19 by 13″ prints. To my experienced eyes, the images are in a word superb. It is also a tiny HD camcorder with 720P and stereo sound! It’s not quite as good as a stand alone HD camcorder but with the ease of flicking a switch into the movie mode as well as the size of the camera, it is nothing short of astonishing. I easily loaded both images as well as video clips into Windows Movie Maker and edited between the two and burned a DVD with excellent results.
