 GREAT PURCHASE March 5, 2010
A. Smith
This camcorder is awesome. The picture is extremely good for being under $300. Buttons and different figures are so easy to use and quick to find. The still camera I thought when purchasing this wasn't going to be good but it is WAY better then I was thinking it was going to be. I would recommend this camcorder to anyone looking for just family fun, sports and goofing around that doesn't require much detail videoing. I haven't tried the software yet but I do know it is a little difficult when I tried using my iPhoto with the camera, my iPhoto didn't recognize the videos but only the pictures, but I'll figure it out.

The camera is good and easy to use. The battery life is about 3 hours which is what I wanted. The picture quality is also good. The software that came with the camea could be a little better and a little more versatile. Price wise it was a good deal.

I have just started to use this videocamera and I find it easy to use. I believe that after I've used it for awhile, I'll give it raving reviews but so far I'm just learning to use it and i haven't ironed out all the kinks (mine, probably) yet.
Great camera March 2, 2010

Good Portable Simple Camcorder February 23, 2010
Nicholas Bach (Miami FL)
Just used my new FS200 this past weekend video'ing our dog in agility trials.
Pros:
Easy to use
Battery life is sufficient for a whole day of video'ing multiple runs
For commentary, the built in microphone is sufficient
Very small, fits nicely into a small "man purse"
Image stabilization (digital) is plenty good for my needs
The zoom is very good for my needs
Cons:
The included software is cumbersome
On/off button is not in the greatest spot (nit)
Without a tripod, zooming in and out makes it hard to hold the camera still
Overall, I'm quite pleased with the purchase. The cost was what I wanted to spend, and I don't need the HD quality, the quality of this cam is what I expected and need. I love the size of it, easy to just put in your pocket. The zoom is quite good. I personnally find it easier to just remove the card to transfer to my computer rather than use the installed software. The software is kinda weak, so I found myself using Windows Movie Maker (after I used SD Copy to migrate from the .mod format). I found to use the zoom while filming, I'd use the thumb switch on the top of the camera to zoom in and then use the "W" button on the flip out view finder to zoom out. This helped quite a bit with keeping the image stable.
All in all, I'm happy with the purchase, and would recommend this camera to a friend who was looking for an inexpensive camcorder. I almost bought the new Kodak pocket camera (KI8), but I'm glad I bought this one with a better optical zoom.
You can see my vids on YouTube under the user name bachnr.
The earlier ones are from a cheaper camera. The ones from the Davie County Dog Agility trials and later are with this camera.
