Best Camcorders - true MPEG Movie Mode, 1 to 1.5 CCD Quantity, 2 to 5 Hours Battery Life

'Attractive.'

'photos were sharp and accurate, and the Bloggie is definitely a serviceable pocket camera.'

'Still, for just £178, it remains a pretty good deal.'

'At 4.4 oz and measuring in at 2 x 4.2 x .59-inches, the Bloggie Touch is remarkably thin. '

'ample resolution'

'Given the low, low prices, the small, low-resolution LCD screen is understandable. '

'True, it doesn’t exude charisma in the looks and design department but it’s well put together and does what it says on the tin – and does it pretty darn well.'

'Very small build'

'The quality is quite good, particularly indoors, there was little jarring noise.'

'the main zoom is large and the record button comfortably placed for the more traditional HandyCam posture.'

'nice, large zoom rocker switch'

'The new GZ-HM1 HD Everio offers a full slate of technologies to optimize picture quality and an array of manual controls for creative flexibility. '

'Video quality is good, but not great, and doesn't quite match the Canon; however, the Samsung is superbly usable and has excellent controls.'

'In automatic shooting mode even the fastest whip pans and flashing lights barely fox the focus and exposure, and even under artificial light – usually the bane of camcorders – the H200 captures great looking pictures backed up with a good loud audio pick up. '

'With an MSRP of only $400 this camera is perfect for home users and more than does the job.'

'In addition to looking cool, the Sony DCR-SX43 is also impressively compact: it measures just 50x55x112mm and weighs 190g.'

'Smart Auto essentially enables low light mode in poor illumination, although a macro mode will also appear when appropriate.'

'Because of the lens placement, you don't have the hold the camcorder up to your face as you do with traditional camcorders, so there's less strain on your arm. '

'capacious SD/SDHC flash storage cards'

'As is usually the case nowadays, video can be edited on the camera and uploaded directly to YouTube -- perfect for capturing those embarrassing v-blogs before you sober up and your social filter kicks in.'
