... I bought this camera after a lot of research into HD camcorders. My personal requirements for the camcorder were:

1. Should take excellent high defition videos
2. Should take good still pictures
3. Should be below 500 dollars


All camera's in the market failed my criteria one way or the other. Some were expensive, Some took terrible stills while others could were just downright pathetic. I looked real hard at samsung-hmx10c for a while but just as i was about to pull the trigger, it went out of stock. So finally i settled on this little gadget from sanyo.


So now the camera has been with me for the last two months so here goes my experience with it:


Pro's:
1. The camera takes absolutely stunning videos. The video is so crisp that you shall be amazed.
2. Excellent low light performance meaning beautiful videos indoors. The camera is rated to be the best indoor performer due to its very large image sensor.
3. Excellent still pictures outside in good light and reasonable still pictures inside in low light.
4. At $430 it is the cheapest HD camcorder available in the market. The only camera which takes both excellent videos as well as pictures is canon hfs dual shot and it retails for 1200 dollars!!!!


So now for the Con's:

1. The camera Image stabilization is absolutely crap meaning you can totally forget about the zoom function because even at moderate zooms the video shakes uncontrollably. This problem also makes it impossible to "walk and record" because the video becomes very very jerky. The problem is so very obvious that even my tech-o-phobe wife was yesterday complaining about it.
2. Slow Auto Focus. ...
