 Decent equipment October 13, 2008
My wife and I love this product! We used to have a MiniDV camcorder and extracting the film from the camera was always a headache. This flash memory camcorder allows fast transfer through USB 2.0 and makes life much easier. The capacity of the internal flash memory is enough for our family use, as I do not tend to make very long movies, and usually I do not use the highest resolution. The battery capacity is also enough for me.
The image stablizer is very helpful when shooting at high magnifications, if you do not want to carry a tripod. The performance under low light conditions is very good. Several white balance options and color temperature schemes give the user plenty of choices to approach the true colors.
The cons: 1. The accompanying software is too fundamental. I only use it to do the file transfers. 2. When doing the transfers, you need to plug in the power cord, open the LCD panel, and select "transfer to PC" every time because it's not the default selection. This is somehow awkward. 3. The joystick is not easy to press down (it can be pressed down as a button to confirm the selection). The touch screens on the SONY models are more easy to operate on, but I'm satisfied with the several hundred dollars I saved with this model.
Great Camera!!! October 12, 2008
Do not hesitate do buy the HF10 camera. It produces Awesome images.
Crispy, clear, good colors (little magenta in some images), but AWESOME!
Great camera October 10, 2008
The camera takes fantasticly clear videos. The instruction booklet is worthless, and the software that came with the camera keeps freezing and booting me out. I purchased different software,and love the video. I still cannot figure out how to take still pictures while recording video.
Great camcorder September 15, 2008
I love this camcorder. My previous one was a Sony, bought some years ago. I wanted to get a hi-def machine so I did some online research and this seemed to be scoring highly, and also had a good price from Amazon. I was also keen to go for the AVCHD as that is becoming more widely compatible. I am impressed with the picture quality. It is easy to transfer files to the PC, using the memory card or with a cable, but you need to use the software that comes with it. The flash memory allows the camera to be very compact but it has a nice feel to it, even though I have quite large hands. The menus could be a little bit more ituitive, but they are not bad. I would recommend this to a friend.
HD camcorder at its finest August 31, 2008

One terrific camera. Months of research paid of 100 times over with this little gem. A palm size HD camcorder that is user friendly, takes great movies, and under a grand. Enough said, buy one.
