This is a good camcorder for the price, but its even better with a Phoenix wide angle lens as it makes everything look cleaner and sharper. Its well worth the extra $30 to get the wide angle lens when you purchase this. Also the mic is EXTREMELY sensitive
I recieved this camera for Christmas. I was kind of skeptical because of the brand name, but it turned out to be my favorite little toy. I carried it everywhere and recorded several clips. The Good: Long Battery Life. USB Charging. Indoor Video/Picture Q
I was surprised at the quality of this little camera, have had no problems yet, recharges quickly and the quality of video was surprisingly good. I read a couple bad reviews about the audio and planned on using an external mic.,but my audio has been clear
I got this locally right after Christmas from a big box store. I wanted to use the recorder to make videos for the purposes of internet upload. Unfortunately, the sites I post at cannot take high resolution recordings. Regardless, I've found that a l
This camera is quite good. You need a memory card though. I was a bit mislead by the add. I thought it already could do two hours, but it can do about 2 minutes without the card. It's light weight and perfect for a young person to have fun. It t
The camera is exactly what I wanted. Its small - takes great video and the audio is not nearly as bad after the update AIPTEK made to it. The low light and sometimes fuzzy audio (on multiple conversations at once) is expected from a $100 camera - but for
Yeah, the audio isn't so great, but for the price it can't be beat for the "fun" factor. Where the camera suffers the most (besides not having an optical zoom) is at action shots - I've taken this camera out snowboarding a few tim
I bought the Aiptek A-HD 720P 5MP CMOS High Definition Camcorder about a month ago, and unfortunately, haven't used it quite as much as I'd envisioned. Still, the few times that I have used it, the open, point, and shoot simplicity, the image qu
this product works very well. I like the style and the HD quailty is amazing. I still need to use it more, and I will on my vacation to the Bahamas in June.
I own an expensive Sony HD camera that takes great video and decent sound. But I hardly ever used it. After taking trips to Hong Kong and Costa Rica wit the Sony, and coming back with almost no footage, because the camera was too bulky and expensive to
This handy little unit creates really nice video for the price. It's compact and easy to charge with either a power adapter or a computer usb port. The main point to remember when using a video camera with a slow cmos sensor like this is that you mu
If you want a video camera to throw in your purse or pocket that takes good quality HD video in good lighting conditions then this is a five star product. If you must have more than that look elsewhere. Video in low light like most inexpensive cameras is
I bought this because it was all I could afford and I needed to record kid's cermonies and events. I was worried because reviews stated problems with low light and sound. But I am happy with results. I found it easy to operate. I am famous for recor
I bought this as a birthday gift for my wife. She was a little tentative at first, but now she says it is "the best gift I have ever gotten." BIG husband points for that. The camera is easy to operate, and takes great video and great stills.
This camera has decent video quality at 720p and pretty good snapshot quality. I have an 8GB SDHC card which holds lots of pictures and video. The downsides to this camera are low-quality digital zoom. Picture and video quality suffers under less than ide
Aiptek A-HD 720P 5MP CMOS High Definition Camcorder I love this camera. Does great home video recording. Pros: * Flash based (microsd card) video recording is fast, saves space (mini dv take us space - and it's still a tape, which can jam). It also
This camcorder is great for the price. The only complaint I have is that it doesn't have a stabalizer.
This camera has impressed me. The picture quality is great, the battery life is terrific, and it has been very easy to use. Its small size can be a challenge for my big hands and some times I have trouble locating the record button quickly, but more pract
I have spent a lot more money on high end sony, sanyo, and canon cameras and none come close to the quality of the pics and video indoors or outdoors as the Aiptek A-HD does. Now it is not perfect such as the zoom, well don't use it because the pics
Great item for its value. Very clear hd performance!' definitely recommanded, however the only downside is when you recorded a video, the playback volume is quite small. However, this can be fixed if you view it on a TV or your computer. This light w
This Camcorder is great for the price point. The Aiptek A-HD take very nice footage outdoors with lot of light and were the high definition is really noticeable and takes really nice pictures outdoors. Indoor it preforms almost the same but needs some lig
I bought this for my first trip abroad. I love that it's light wgt and intuitive to use. I bought 3 flash cards (2-4GB & 1-2GB). I took over 600 photos, 12 audio clips, and 50video clips. I changed to the next 4GB card after the 4day just to
I bought this item recently. I have much experience with DV and HDV shooting and editing. I know not to expect too much for this price, but I was tempted by some of the reviews/ratings on Amazon. This was to be a camera I would carry on my dirtbike and
This is a decent camcorder for the price. I like the way you can hold it and the fact that it uses SD cards, the quality is certainly NOT HD though. Its a little grainy. The mic on it is meant for indoors, don't expect good quality if you're out
I bought this camera to have something to take "quick and dirty" HD videos, like at family events of random topics. I'm using a macbook. I have had it for about a week and have shot a variety of subjects. If the indoor subject is well lit t
first this is a fun little camers at a great price the major drawback is the sound recording it easly gets overloaded and distorted so forget about recording the kids band concert the sound is so bad all you hear is a big mess
This camera might be able to technically record at 720p but compression is higher and motion is chopy in my tests. The D1 mode yeilds the most balanced video. The lens is fairly slow, F3.0 and is somewhat soft. It's also fixed so it can be difficu
It's probably more of a toy or a hobbyist camera, rather than consumer grade camera, and for one major reason - there is no image stabilitzation, so your hand needs to be *really* steady, or you need to use a tripod. Other that that, no complaints. I
This camera is surprising in it's video quality and simplicity to operate, however the Zoom and the audio leaves a lot to be desired. I know for the price you can't expect much,but if you want serious results, look at some other cameras. Bob
I like this camcorder. Great price, Great value, excellent video quality (when you are in decent lighting). But the audio is just no good. There is no external mic option. I have taken many videos with subjects speaking at normal volume literally 3 fe
The good: Inexpensive, easy to use, quick to start recording, easy to export (onto a MAC), removeable media (SD card), has a zoom, can take pictures, is light, has a flip screen for self-recording. The bad: Short battery life, no image stabilizer (hope yo
Whereas the camera is okay, the files it produces are somewhat problematic. This is due to a conflict, that I have spent weeks attempting to resolve, between Apple's QuickTime, which hosts the videos, and Vegas Movie Studio Platinum 7. Other software

Worked OK for a couple weeks. Got it back out a few months later and the battery was dead. Recharged it but it won't turn on. Sometimes the blue LED will blink and sometimes not. Even tried a new battery and charger but no luck.
It is not a good camera, the quality is poor pictures is not an HD camera,zoom is nothing, basically I consider a toy for a kid to play
My mother bought this camera, and she LOVES it.. I on the other hand, can't stand it. I have a DSLR camera that takes great pictures. I carry it around everywhere I go, but if my mom is there, I'll take a picture of her with the family, but th
The only problem that I've had with the camera is that it frequently doesn't focus correctly which leaves your "HD" video nothing but HD fuzz. On the other side of it... when it works right it really works right. As long as it focuse
I bought this as an inexpensive and simple camcorder for the ski slopes. I felt nervous about using an expensive device. The following are my ramblings that I can think of real quick. If it worked in cold weather, I would have given it 3.5-4 stars beca
I bought this camera about a year ago with the intent of making home videos. Actually I had done some research on camcorders, and since I didn't want to spend a boat-load of cash, I decided on the flip video camcorder. So I went to Best Buy to purc
For the money, I give the hardware 5 stars. I recommend a tripod since cheap cameras don't do good with motion. Video is very nice, but the sound could be better. Because the manufacturer casually forgets to tell you that you won't be able to
I got mine from circuit city because it is advertised as an HD video Camcorder and after I got it... I realized that sound quality is very poor the the picture quality is excellent. every time you move your hand you hear more of your own movement and brea
I got the camera for vacation and It is very easy to use and the photos and video came out very well. I didnt have a problem so much with the sound. Out of nowhere the middle joystick button broke. It moves up down, right left fine but it wont push in any
This camera has excellent quality images and video, but when it comes to audio it SUCKS! DUring playback of a video you hear clicking noises (from using the zoom feature) and internal noises (from the camera). NOT WORTH the MoNEY. SAVE an additional 100 b
This was a gift, so naturally, I'm stuck with it. Here are the pros and cons. Pros: You actually have a camera. The image quality is good. Cons: It dies super fast. The zoom is bad. The sound quality is god awful. It's as if there's a garba
its a little awkward, but the video is alright, and if the audio weren't so terrible, I'd keep on using it. It's my kids play camera now, what a waste of money:)
I have to say, this is one of the worse cameras I have ever used. The video quality is SO poor that it is unusable. I returned it the next day to amazon, as even in bright sun the video was so blocky it was not even watchable. Yes, it may be 720p, but
I just returned this camera...horrible! The concept is perfect, the actual product is crap. The video is OK, BUT, I have a macbook & it did not sync up properly. The photos would sync but not the video. The lady at the store said it would, as did the
Takes 5 weeks for Aiptek to replace and customer pays for the long distance call and the Shipping to return the item. Can't get a refund for this defective product from Aiptek or Amazon so I can just replace this myself. Next time will spend more mo
this piece of junk dosent pick up sounds very well,then ater 2 months it didnt pick up sounds at all,and it dosen't zoom in that good,then the joy stick broke,then the speaker cover fell off,no wonder this cam corder was only $100
I just checked it out at target. To sum it up it's a $120 toy. It just doesn't deliver on a HD level. The HD recording is a blurred mess. On the DV1 setting the video is near the quality of my miniDV camcorder, but it lacks many features. The fi
