Summary: Very bad indoor picture (dark and grainy), and bad sound quality
Comment: I purchased it about a year ago, mainly for recording indoor activity (dancing). I saw the reviews reporting poor indoor performance but also saw a clip on youtube taken indoor (in a basketball arena, flooded with light...) and it looked good.
So i bought it and found the video taken indoor comes grainy and dark. If i can flood the room with light then it's ok but in most situations i have no control over lighting, and even though the lighting seems reasonable to me - the video comes unacceptably dark and grainy (i played with all different settings of the camera).
The only way i found was to use the "night mode" feature in the settings. However, this causes blurriness. Well, better blurry than dark and grainy but it's not much of a consolation.
The sound quality of the built in mic is also extremely dismal. Haven't checked external one.
I regret buying this camera. Before this one i used to take clips with my 4 years old phone camera (LG env, 320x240) and the quality of the indoor picture and sound are much better.
Outdoor picture quality is reasonable. Sound still bad.

Summary: Works fine for me
Comment: I was looking for a video camera that would be easy to use for recording an interview with aging parents: Something for the younger generations to have to remember great-grandparents in their own words. I am not experienced with this type of thing, ad I wanted something that had capability for external mic. This one had a good directional mic built-in, so we used that. It was not good enough or the ambient noise outdoors, but worked OK inside.
If I had it all to do again, I would use an external mic for better sound pickup.

Summary: Aiptek Action HD GVS 1080p
Comment: The picture quality is great for the price and sound is good also. If you are looking for a good family video camera. The only thing I didn't like about this camera is that there was hardly any internal memory. I purchased a 4gb SDHC card after buying this camera, I liked this because it is easy to edit your videos on a computer with the software it comes with. Just put it in a SDHC card reader and import to a file.

Summary: handy...
Comment: This is great because it can be puled out of your pocket anytime and not make a big scene. The quality of picture is really clear. It was fun for a while. I took it snowboarding and a little snow got on it, very small amount and it stopped working. I advise getting something more durable for outdoor activity. I should have seen that coming made for casual use.

Summary: u get what u pay for!!!
Comment: I had to return the product to purchase a better quality recorder. This recorder has poor I mean poor sound quality. It had a serious high pitch humming sound during playback. You can also not hook the camera directly to the television for playback. I highly recommend you not purchasing this camera.
