Only lasts 3 months 
2008-03-25
I am a teacher and bought this camera for my classroom. Almost on cue, all four of my cameras stopped working at month 3. I sent them back and Aiptek was nice enough to replace them, but again, on cue, the cameras all stopped working after 3 months.
As well, the quality of the photos is not good enough for us to use in our high-quality yearbook because they are slightly blurry. The pictures are good for web use, but not for print quality.
It is super cheap and easy to use, but if you spend a little more on a different brand, you will find it worth the extra money. Other brands I purchased have lasted over 2 years now. This is not a brand I will ever purchase again.
Alright for the price

You should not expect miracles from a $120 digital camcorder.
It produces better quality video than, say, a camera phone, but the quality is slightly worse than a good old-fashioned VHS camcorder. Outdoor video quality is very good. Indoor and low-light, not so much. Faster moving objects tend to look very pixelated.
You will, probably, want to pick up a second battery. The charger takes around 6 hours to charge a battery, and experience shows that the charge will yield 2 to 3 hours of record time.
If you are looking for a way to capture the dumb things that your friends do and then post it on youtube, then this camcorder is a good choice. If you want 'high' quality digital video, you may want to invest in a Sony, Panasonic, or Canon camcorder.

I had never heard of this brand and was hesitant to buy this product but I was in need of a decent camera/camcorder and the price was too good to refuse. To my suprise the camcorder works great. On high resolution you need to use a a tripod but on standard resolution the photos are great along with the video.
I was impressed with the easy to use software for transfering images and mpegs to my computer. All in all I would say this is a great buy for a someone who wants to get great photos and movies at a great price. If I could change anything about it I would only ask they provide for a larger SD card than the two gig it accepts.
Horrible Quality 
2007-12-27
I got this product for christmas, and after trying it for two days, i'm returning it this weekend. The quality of the video is terrible, the slightest movement and the camera can't keep up. As long as your doing limited movement it can work good, and it would be a good camera to start of a child with, but thats it. The sound never matches up with the lips whether close to the camera or from more than 10 feet away. The still photos are decent, but when the person is moving at all the picture stinks. If your considering this product, just go with a digital camera, its all around better.
Very nice camera!!!

it works fine, the only problem is that the image drags if motion is medium to high speed. not SDHC compatable so use no bigger than a 2gb card.

Throw your money out the window

I ordered one of these camcorders, it worked for less than a year, rather than go thru the hassle of repairing it thru the mnfr, like an idiot I ordered another one just like it thinking I could save money using same batteries and chips...wrong. Second video camera arrived in april, dead in June. does not recognize the memory chip, says the memory is full in five minutes with a 2 gig chip? no way. emailed tech support, email bounces, called tech support, guess what...sorry we are experiencing a HIGH VOLUME OF CALLS TODAY, ...duh....i guess so. what a waste of money. do not buy this brand. junk.
Waste of money

My husband bought this for my birthday almost 1 1/2 years ago. The camera took blurry pictures and the video is only able to record is you stand still and not walk around. Otherwise the movie becomes distorted.

The camera will not download into my pc. There is a problem with the download port on the camera. I e-mailed the manufacturer and as of yet have not recieved a response.
