Great little camera! [Posted on 2008-12-04]
Just got this camera and went traveling with it. It's about the same size of my old Canon A40 but not as heavy. The battery life is fantastic and can be charge via your computer. The photos turn out good. Video is good too. An all around, versatile, camera in my book.

When Sony Brand HD Camcorders cost $600+ and you can find a HD cam corder for 135.99, that should raise some red flags
Pro's:
Cheap
Very Easy to use (recording). push to record, push to stop. no pause feature. will just make new movies
Small and Light weight
easy to transfer files from camera to windows
Con's:
Poor overall quality
Video recording stutters, when playback video jumps
Have to hold the camera dead still, or else it gets super blurry or it will stutter
I was recording my cats tail with the HD 60fps function and tail still appears as a blur, I am suspicious that this fucntion actually works
the biggest con for me is the video stuttering play back. some scenarios its so bad it looks like a slide show. All the videos ive recorded have this artifact
here is an example i uploaded

easy to use, very small but without image stabilizer the video is very shaky. I do not have a tripod and would not use one..the point is, it is small and portable so why would you lug a tripod around!!!Low light quality seems suspect but will play around with the exposure over xmas to see if this improves. If no better and i do not master the shaky video situation i will return this product straight after xmas..i will follow up but right now i am thinking of upgrading to the Sanyo Xacti 1010.
stupid dv camera [Posted on 2008-12-25]
Never buy this product! I bought mine from a certain online store. At first the camera works fine, true to its word it has a high definition video. I kept it in a special place, I even put some moisture absorber (dehumidifier) beside it to avoid the camera from getting moist. In other words I gave it a special treatment. But then, one day for no reason, it just won't operate. When I open the LCD, it's totally DEAD!! I know the problem is not in the battery because I test it using a multi tester. It's (the problem) in the video camera itself. When I tried contacting the support, he keeps redirecting me to another website, one was chinese and the other one is german which the latter don't offer support for this specific model. If you are a person who likes to be sure of what you are buying then this video camera is not for you. But if you are a person who has a "gambling" kind of attitude, then you may try this stupid camera. For me, Aiptek is just trying to look sophisticated so as to get a big profit from the market. Talk about durability and support??? PWEEH!!!! I will never buy Aiptek products again. I've learned my lesson the hard way. A single star for this stupid product.
Very good for the price [Posted on 2008-12-28]
