This camera has a lot of problems. When recording there is a wavy line on the bottom of the screen, the auto focus doesn't work properly and the battery life is terrible. By far the worst problem is that it keeps crashing when it is being used with the charger plugged in and spoiling the video. In fact the charging system seems to be terribly amateurish in design; it doesn't indicate it is charging at all when the camera is switched on and will only give you battery levels by way of a flashing LED when it is switched off so you don't really know whether its fully charged or not. The picture quality is very grainy and it seems to need strong light to give any reasonable quality at all. Every now and then the zoom facility gets its tights in a tangle and it refuses to focus at all.
However it is cheap and easy to use so that's in its favour. For someone who just wants holiday videos and isn't too concerned about quality, or for someone just starting out in video then its a good buy. It does work its just that it isn't very good.

My experience with this product has not been great.
I bought at the £200 price, I was initially very disappointed with the battery charge, when recording in normal mode, I got nothing like the time specifified in the manual for a full charge.
Then, on my 3rd recording, the camcorder developed a fault, with the DVD-RW going round continually when you power on, and there was NOTHINGA i could do to stop it, remove the disk etc, tried everything, including removing batteries.
So I had to send it back. I hope I have not been silly, in asking for a new camcorder rather than a refund, but hope springs eternal.
By the way, my disappointment is with Samsung - amazon were outstanding, not only the good price which everyone notes here, but this is the first return I have made in c 7 years of custom, and I was super-impressed with how easy it is to make a return. First class service
Great functions let down by poor image quality. - 15 Aug 2007

Firsly i bought this camcorder due to the other three reviews hoping that i had made the right choice. Unfortunately i got a camcorder that was defective when recording to dvd. There was a 1mm distorted line at the bottom of the recording. no such line when recording to the memory card, weird. i also found that the picture quality was not up to scratch. maybe i have been spoilt by using a panasonic mini DV prior to buying this but the image was just grainy. like i said maybe i just had a defective unit but thought i would share my views. have returned the unit to amazon for a full refund and have started my hunt again for a good quality camcorder.
