Summary: amazon sent this item with scratches, unbelievable
Comment: this one star is for amazon, the item i received was with many scracthes around the body, with cables unhooked, even the battery for the remote controller was placed in. this is a definitely used camera. how could this happen from such a big amazon, unbelievable. i would not bother if they had told me this is refurbished item, but they sell it as brand new. the item could even be defective I do not know.

Summary: Frustrating format makes editing nearly unbearable
Comment: This camera has a lot of appealing features, but the AVCHD format makes it very difficult to work with files using a Mac and iMovie for editing. The files become unmanageably large when imported to iMovie, and take a lot longer to import than 1:1 even. Perhaps there will be software upgrades or improvements to handle these files with ease in the future, but for now it has made use of this camera a chore.

In fact, I am now planning to simply buy add'l SD cards for archiving of the footage we are taking of our new son, and will hope for a more user-friendly way to edit these videos in the future. At $25/8GB for Class 4 cards, which can hold 1-2 hours of raw footage, which is not unreasonable, but it beats the time investment required to deal with the files using current software.

Summary: MTS Codec Caveat
Comment: Do some research before you buy this camera!

It's breaking mah heart, but I have to send this beautiful camera back.

The MTS Codec doesn't play nice with premiere pro cs3.

Since it doesn't have a firewire port, I can't use it on my mac and record with quicktime.

If, and that's a big if, I can get anything from this gorgeous camera onto my mac, I would have to recode EVERYTHING to edit, think .flv or .avi packed with xvid. Think hours of recoding and hours of extra defragging.

Too much drama. It looks like if one spends hundreds and hundreds of dollars on "video editing" software, you wouldn't have to buy more software to recode ANYTHING! I used to have the same problem with Sony Vegas. What the hell are they thinking? Internet video is a passing fad???

Anyway, the flash sounds great but it's not working for me. I'm trading it in for a HV30. Mini HD tapes aren't as sexy, but they are very cheap archival quality storage. Plus they record straight HDV no codecs.

happy...ah whatever.

Summary: Awesome!
Comment: The best part is being able to randomly access the different recordings! No more tape to rewind/fast forward.

Summary: An Okay Camara, with Some Usability Issues
Comment: I bought the camara, and found that it is fairly easy to use.

I have some troubles with its software and manual.

1) The Manual cannot be openned up easily by Adobe PDF Reader 9.0, and got stuck constantly. As a result, I have to download another reader from other software vender to read manual.

2) I had a hard time to upload the video records from the camara to my PC, until I did a lot of research over Internet to find that I have to use AC power instead of battery to upload the recording.

I wasted about 6 hours to address these two issues. Other than that, everything seems working out okay.

Another complaint is that the battery life is too short (about 90 minutes).
