After 2 months of research this was what I bought. I was looking for a camera to video wildlife and sports mostly. I didnt want to drop a grand and also wanted HD. NO tapes or disks, had to be an SD Card. Technology changes to fast I will probably buy again in 4 years. For the price range this was the best I could find. Just like everyone says the low light is not great (the reason for 4 stars). That wasnt a concern to me b/c with my last camera I only shot 10% in low light. Spending an extra $400 didnt make much sense for me. Easy to use and operate, looked great on Panasonic 42 inch plasma on playback, awesome zoom, fits great on my leupold spotting scope (should be able to see a mnt goat at 600 yards pretty clear). I havent done any editing yet or put burned a Blue Ray. If you graduated high school you should be able to read the manual and other websites on setups. I bought mine from B&H because I wanted to :) , but leaving a review here because this was one of the places I did research. Yes you have to hold the camera steady, this is HD, that means is shows everything. So if you have an ugly fat friend this aint gonna hide it. Try SD if you want to impress on match.com. First thing I did with the download disks that came with the camera was toss them in the trash. Everyone said they sucked. This review is on the camera. Ya the battery wont run 12 hours straight, No there is no HDMI cord, no SD card (I bought 2 Transend 16's, hdmi cable, extra battery, partridge in a pear tree). When all is said and done for the price I dont think it can be beat.If you think it can leave a comment and keep the price within a benjamin, no disc, or tape cameras either. For the people that complained about the camera being to small, your stupid. Get more detail about Canon VIXIA HF200 HD Flash Memory Camcorder with 15x Optical Zoom.
