In Defense of the ZR930

Pros: -Easy to use -Great quality -Easily connects to computer -Has the ability to attach external mic AND headphones at the same time

Cons: -Requires 3 connectors to be able to have headphones plugged in

Overall Review: I have used this camera is a ton of conditions including pouring down rain (with an umbrella of course) and have not once had a condensation error. The other reviewer must have had a defective product because mine has worked flawlessly. In order to use headphones to monitor sounds, you need 3 adapters or you will hear an awful screech in the headphone. The end result is a mono signal, however it is in both ears with the proper converter. Sounds fine for just making sure audio is coming in clear. This camera is really great for the price, I have not had any issues.

Disappointed

Comments: I bought this a while ago to play battlefield 1942 and vietnam. However in order for it to work ,you need to download profiles to make it work. Even then, the throttle wasn't supported. I also tried to the joystick in GTA vice city and that wasn't supported. Without force feedback, the joystick is very floppy so there becomes no realistic simulation when trying to pull up a plane. I sold this soon after.

Excellent

Comments: I've had these speakers for over a year now and they are great for gaming, music, and watching movies. Subwoofer can shake my whole house if I set it high enough. Great speakers for a great price

GREAT CARD!

Comments: I upgraded from a dying Geforce 4 TI 4600 128mb and this one is of course WAY BETTER! I have tried Counter Strike Source and Unreal Tournament 2004 at FULL settings with AA and AF at the highest and there is NO FPS drop. My set up is Athlon 64 3500 1024mb RAM PC-3200 WD SATA 160gb HD 7200RPM 8mb Cache XFX Geforce 6800 GT 256mb

Fantastic Camera

Comments: I went to Las Vegas with this camera and took over 230 pictures. Very clear and easy to use. The different modes make it idle for every different lighting condition. The digital zoom is also extremely nice, I was able to take pictures of mountains thousands of miles away from the airplane window. Only reason I am giving it a 4 is because of the lack of battery indicator. My first day in Vegas I was surprised by the message "Please change the battery pack." However if you charge it every night and buy atleast 2 battery packs, I highly reccomend this camera.

pretty darn sweet!

Comments: I still havn't gotten a new graphics card (still have geforce 4 ti 4600 128mb) which is fairly old. However with this 3500 running off of it i get perfect frame rate on medium settings in half life 2/cs source and little to know fps lag in call of duty at highest settings...BUY IT NOW!
