Sanyo VPC-CG10EBK Dual High Definition Video Camcorder & Photo Camera - Black

Great buy for the money !, 2010-02-22
I needed a camera quick as i was going snowboarding. We bought one from a supermarket that was waterproof but it did not live up to expectations. I searched for ages for a good camera & I found this. I have to say this camera is AMAZING and totally better than expected. When I saw the price I thought that it should do the trick but I wanted more in the future...well I won't be needing another camera any time soon. This great, lightweight, easy to use camera is so simple yet very effective. As mentioned before, I took mine snowboarding and the zoom and light capture was excellent. I turned the digital zoom off on the menu so that I wouldn't lose any quality when taking footage from afar.
I am no expert in video production but this camera gives the ability to create Avatar like movies. The quality is great and the sound pickup is fantastic for such a little camera. I wasn't expecting full stereo sound however it managed to pick up all the noises I wanted on the busy slopes and also capture some lovely backround noise for effect.
I highly reccommend this to anyone who wants to get some footage of holidays, friends, family or anything else.
I also bought a spare battery pack to go with it as recording in HD can deplete the battery quicker but having said that the battery is still very good. Also I purchased a 16GB card to store all of my photos and videos.
A handy feature this camera has is that you can take photos while recording a video. This is great when you want that unmissable still photo to hang on the wall!

Panasonic HDC-SD10 High Definition Flash Memory Camcorder With 16x Optical Zoom - Black

Full HD the way to go, 2010-03-01
An excellent product, light and easy to use. the 1000 digital zoom is a very shaky and broken at full stretch but on a maximum of 40X it's a sharp clear image with exceptional definition. Hence HD, all together a good buy

Flip Video Ultra Camcorder 2nd Generation With 4GB Memory - Black

Form...and Function at a sensible price, 2010-03-12
A well made, easy to use, piece of kit at a sensible price. Hand held, about the size of a pack of cigarettes, this is a very simple to use 'point and squirt' device with a good sized memory, decent picture quality and simple download via usb straight into your machine.No nonsencse and sturdy, it does what it says on the tin. If you want a more professional setup pay the extra and buy a full sized camera, but for an unobtrusive , portable, 'instant film' item this is the dogs you know whats ....

Panasonic Panasonic SDR-S26, 2010-02-13
This camera is really easy to use. It has the "switch" that means everything is automatically put into focus and the picture is perfect. The camera was for my partner, a camcorder novice and she took to it straight away. She found that with long views your hand shake is exagerated and that a small tripod is beneficial or you need to be able to stand the camera on a steady surface. The camera is light and compact and can be easily carried in a pocket or handbag.

Veho VCC-003 Muvi Micro DV Camcorder

Veho MUVI micro camcorder, 2010-02-15
How Cool?...... What a toy!
At this price, even if it didn't work great you can just put it down to a "well what the heck it just didn't turn out" and look for something else.
....But this did turn out!....it was even smaller than i ever expected, the picture and sound quality for something smaller than my thumb are impressive. Very easy plug and play and never believed that i was going to get this thing working without some messing about somewhere.....I'm not a techno geek so i was pleased that it all just seemed to work intuitively.
You are never going to film a hollywood film with this but that's not what you get a tiny inconspicuous camera for now is it?

Flip Video Ultra High Definition Camcorder With 8GB Memory - Black

My Flip Ultra if flipping fantastic!!, 2010-03-11
I love my Flip!!!! It is SO easy to use - switch it on & video immediately - my class of 6 year olds can use it without a problem. The quality is really impressive too & it's well worth buying the little tripod. Downloading the videos is a piece of cake & making your videos into movies is aso very simple. Cutting snippets of video is so easy so you can blend video clips into a movie effortlessly. Uploading your clips onto Facebook etc is just as easy - as is sending your clip ia email - the software does it all for you in simple steps. I would recommend this to anyone who videos little & often - I carry it around in my hand bag at all times just in case! My children are often performing live & I was fed up with lugging my camcorder round but also all the time consuming downloadng that followed.This is fantastic & very good value. Buy one & you won't regret it!

Kodak Zi8 HD Pocket Video Camera - Black

Don't Hesitate - Kodak zi8 is Fantastic, Highly Recommended, 2010-03-08
I love this camera. Need I say more?
I bought it after A LOT of research. Having been looking for quite some time for a pocket HD camera for a while, I had looked at all the demo vids online and made a couple of duff purchases - then I bought the Kodak zi8 and have no regrets whatsoever.

Picture Quality: Fantastic.
Sound Quality: Fantastic.

Like I said at the start: I love it. I've made loads of videos both indoor and outdoor, average light and typical indoor light and I have not had to scrap a video yet.

If you want a HD pocket camera - don't hesitate to buy the Kodak zi8.
