Best Camcorders - AVC Recording Format, 3 to 4 in. LCD Panel Size

'Comprehensive enthusiast features.'

'Input/output terminals.'

'Images were really smooth with very few jagged edges and no visible pixellation.'

'huge zoom and superb image stabilisation'

'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. '

'Alternatively with its user friendliness and general approachability it might make an ideal Christmas gift for a “tweenager”.'

'Best Budget Camcorder.'

'And the Picsio FM2 isn’t fussy: it’s Mac and PC compatible. '

'easy-to-use and intuitive interface'

'The HDR-CX160 features several automated modes for better recording, including Optical SteadyShot for more stable videos, Tracking Focus to keep focus on a moving object, and Wind Noise Reduction. '

'The 3-inch touchscreen is large enough, both to navigate around using the icons and also for video playback or viewing photos, although it can be quite hard to see if you're out in bright daylight.'

'touch panel operation, improved low-light performance, and new built-in software for easy editing and sharing. '

'Usability is fair, with the large touchscreen offering easy access to the relatively sparse functionality.'
