What can I say, this is a great little camera. any camera you get that has digital zoom (even the ones that costs hundreds more ) has the same problem. Great little camera.
I have a camcorder that costs 5 times as much and it's sitting in my closet collecting dust because I take my Vado with me every where I go.They are easy to use (point and shoot ) and the picture quality is good.I've used it for personal video logs and just every day capture life videos.It's sad that the older models won't be available any longer but I'm sure that the newer ones in High Definition will be just as good. The pictures has a tendency to be a bit blurry on digital zoom. I have two of them and they work great.
Only disappointment is the digital zoom on it. The thing I like about it most is the.avi format that the video is taken in. You can play your video's on any computer and if you want you can purchase any of the many video conversion programs to put on to DVD.
But. Optical zoom is the best.
I bought this item for me,and I have to say it is so easy to use. Its small enough to fit anywhere. Even if this item is only 1GB and only holds 2 hours of video. I would highly recommand it to my family & friends
I gave this to my 28 yr. and realized the video quality was too grainy, esp. old daughter for Christmas. She is 'into' photography, etc. when on the 'big' screen of the computer. She sent it back right away and upgraded to the HD version
Along with my wallet and keys my Vado pocket camcorder is in my pocket every time I leave the house. It is no better than cell phone video. Because it is a camera only, I was expecting more. It is easy to use, mostly because it has very few controls, and can be mastered in minutes. The sound is better than I expected. The batteries charge fast and hold their charge. This small, lightweight video camera is very handy. Most youtube videos are of higher quality than this camera produces.
The USB plug that is stored in the cotton corner of the camera housing looks flimsy but has given me no problems so far. I think a plug with a longer cord would be more trouble prone.Although the camera stores an hour of video I am disappointed with the video quality. The zoom function is jerky. The software which is supposed to allow automatic login to youtube did not work for me, but my computer is locked down pretty tight so maybe it is due to a permission problem resulting from my computer's configuration.
This is a great little camcorder. Very smalland easy to travel with. Great that it fitsin a pocket. Would like a longer taping time,but still a good deal.
