Thank You NewEgg team

Reviewed By: MACHINE on 11/17/2009

Tech Level: low - Ownership: 1 day to 1 week

This user purchased this item from Newegg

Pros: Ordered on Friday and received on Monday. Shipping at the time was $1.99. I could have gotten it cheaper from another vendor and waited 7-9 days. Thanks NewEgg for the exceptional speed of service. Camera was well packaged and arrived at my workplace Monday morning.

Cons: None at this time.

Other Thoughts: Newegg has a simple but excellent business model of fair to competitive prices and super fast fulfillment and delivery. So simple you would think to fulfill an order the same day you get it but even @m@zon can't do this.

This user purchased this item from Newegg

Pros: This camera rocks, the Full HD video is awsome!!
And there are a lot of cool functions, if you like to make nice photos but you are not a pofessional this is the device.

Cons: Sometimes a error message appear when I´m using the zoom, the message is: "Objective lens error, restart the camera", but it´s rare.

Not too good for low light scenes

Reviewed By: J. Le on 8/25/2009

Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 day to 1 week

This user purchased this item from Newegg

Pros: Excellent high quality day-time pictures (as good as entry level DSLR,) very usable zoom range, takes pictures in either std 3:2 or wide 16:9 formats, good quality HD video recordings

Cons: external hot shoe not standard size, hard to focus in dimly lit scenes, picture too noisy for dark scenes due to bump-up ISO. Anything above ISO 200 is ... bad for dark scene, use flash :) mini-HDMI location is too cramp to connect most mini-HDMI cable (I had to cut off some plastic off my mini-HDMI cable connector to fit this cam) - very poor engineering from Canon.

Other Thoughts: Not a replacement for dedicated HD camcorder but a good choice to take quick HD vids in a crunch.
